The Mickey Mouse Mailbox - MBMBaM Animation

Hey all!
Woah! It's been a while since we delved into the twisted, corrupted humour of the McElboys! This moment was suggested by a couple of lovely people from the Bug Hunter discord and I am VERY glad they did so. It's such a fantastic moment and I definitely would've missed it otherwise!

The way he's just so visibly sucked into the permanency of this cartoon rat, _so_ good

[@DeepBlueInk]

IT'LL BE THERE TOMORROW!

[@sethswheelhouse]

It makes you wonder if it's still there though, and that makes it even funnier. I mean this bit is like 2 years old.

[@DimT670]

I totally get it tho. Like you see funny pictures of stupid shit on the internet daily. Like all those stupidly placed stairs. But then someone shows you their stupidly placed stairs and suddenly you confront the fact that this and every other such picture aren't just random Internet fluff but extant things. Extant things people have to live with every single day. And that's a dozy when you really think about it Like someone has to live with a massive statue of mickey in their yard. They wake up every day and they see it. Everyone else sees it too.

[@Megamaduo]

Like the Ferris Bueller art museum scene but Justin and Mickey locking eyes

[@JaxontheOkay]

@@DimT670 YES EXACTLY SOMEONE ELSE GETS IT. like you can laugh and joke and stuff but this is someone's life! they have to deal with having a six foot stone mickey mouse mailbox in their front lawn every day

[@TRquiet]

“Dickey Mouse.” **basks silently in everyone’s approval** I am convinced that this is what happened, and indeed, how Travis lives his life every day.

[@ShyGuy1347]

"Thank Travis for Travis"

[@demonsarisingmetal]

“It’s so big and it’ll be there tomorrow” is a line I think of arguable too many times.

[@incrediblelatte]

A line that frequently pops into my mind.

[@spencerpinkston9972]

I think it fundamentally changed how my brain works

[@TheNerdySimulation]

Love the implication you added here that the Drawfee gang just causally attends MBMBaM liveshows together

[@AndEzutarian]

LMAO. Also the part of that episode when they're like "actually you can't remove this because it's the highlight of some mail carrier's day" was so funny to me.

[@TurboNemesis]

Something about the realization "it's so big and it'll be there tomorrow" fucking KILLS ME

[@CassReidIsSomeone]

For a few years growing up with family in the area, this sculpture was a frequent visit for sure. It really was so much bigger than it had any right to be but it was a marvel

[@7337blackwolf]

Do you know if it's still there? Is the Mouse truly eternal?

[@edwardnygma8533]

God I hope it's still there.

[@CassReidIsSomeone]

Indeed it still stands, it'll be there tomorrow, and tomorrow

I adore the Easter eggs in these animations. Also the basking in the reaction to the Dickie Mouse joke was incredible. 😂

[@gretchenm47]

That drawing was the definition of "basking."

[@Wecoc1]

And the Drawfee gang are in the crowd! 😆

[@UnreasonableOpinions]

By this point the number of times you have had corporate sniper teams covering the McElroys begs the question of what secrets you have been keeping.

DeepBlueInk abbreviates into DBI... oh no he's with the Deberal Bureau of Investigation!

[@xatlern]

I love the old school meme format over Travis with that smug smile

[@fallenaither]

Out of *all* the details in this animation, I’m obsessed with the fact that Griffin’s lapel mic is on upside down. There’s just so many visual gags, it feels like a fun game trying to see all of them.

[@ardzruni]

How dare you mention Griffin's lapel mic and not include the fact that Travis's is CLIPPED TO HIS OWN BEARD

[@mitchkinsella4247]

Today I learned that while DeepBlueInk's artsyle for people is very cute and fun, when applied to skeletons its pretty genuinely horrifying. Like that was a two second shot but damn that was enough for that f-hole faced monster to make an impression

[@DeepBlueInk]

F-hole faced monster is such a strong phrase

[@Unownshipper]

Love that Drawfee is in the crowd. Griffin trying, failing, and slowly getting more anxious as he tries to move onto the next question is the most relatable I've ever found him to be. Legit question: how on Earth did the previous owners get that past the HOA?

[@saveoursquirrels4241]

In my uncle's neighborhood there's a fellow who rigorously went through all the HOA guidelines and within the rules painted his whole house pepto bismol pink. I'm talking roof, walls, windows, driveway. You can see it from so far away through the trees.

[@Unownshipper]

@@saveoursquirrels4241 I'd call that Malicious Compliance.

[@jonpinyan]

The exquisite touch of having Travis's mic attached to his beard. Outstanding.

[@drcowbell]

It’s SO BIG it’ll be there TOMORROW!

[@KSignalEingang]

I really need to start saying this more often.

[@steveboswell]

1:34 I was NOT ready for what skulls look like in the DBI Universe

[@OctopusOwl]

Horrifying

[@williamousley9794]

There’s some sort of primal fear in me that awakens whenever I see the man-sized Mickey Mouse mailbox

[@davidn2612]

I swear the fucking eye twitching is the best part of these animations

[@DeepBlueInk]

I've gotten really fond of the little eye twitches lately

[@daithiodonnell2825]

I'm so glad you did this, Justin's "It's so big and it'll be here tomorrow!" is deeply underappreciated.

[@TransCattyAcid]

Before it premiered I said something about only knowing MBMBaM from these animations and Drawfee, oh how wonderful for Drawfee to be in the audience. (Also Question Asker's distress gives me real Jacob energy vibes)

[@DeepBlueInk]

It's seeping into everything I animate. Maybe I'm the problem?

[@TransCattyAcid]

@@DeepBlueInk No, no. Clearly it's Jacob, he started the beef with you after all.

[@ZackC]

If it had been Jacob, Karina and Spencer were definitely who put that mouse there

[@shadowknight7932]

I was a bit late, but I loved it as always! The laser pointer from presumably a Disney hitman cracked me up and so did the Dickie Mouse Joke followed by standing ovation

[@notednuance]

I spy a little Drawfee crew in the crowd. Love it. Maybe the only criticism is that... Nathan would've loved the "Dickey Mouse" joke so... pipe in a little Nathan "ha"

[@shawnaeatscats]

How quickly Griff came up with the perfect solution and how quickly trav came up with the perfect name/portmanteau makes me think these guys might actually be qualified to give advice sometimes

[@antimonyparanoia]

i love the easter eggs hidden in these videos, like drawfee in the audience in this one

[@KO-vb4tg]

I’m digging these micro expressions, Blue!

[@DeepBlueInk]

Thanks K O!

[@peterdafox]

I just noticed Travis' lav mic on his beard. I am deceased.

[@MoonShadowWolfe]

Dear question asker: the existence and nuisance of this enormous stone mouse is still giving me joy. If you have indeed shifted the Mickey, please do not tell me. This mouse is forever.

[@shockofthenew]

Ahh I'm glad you're still making mbmbam animations. Don't get me wrong I'm a huge drawfreak and I love all your drawfee vids, but I love seeing the mcelboys in your style too, and they've had so many great bits recently that made me think "this would be great as a DBI animation!" Keep up the great work, and don't forget to take breaks when you need to as well, you produce an impressive amount of stuff!

[@PValor]

The sight gag of Justin Superman flying to West Virginia is so simple but so great

[@crstph]

“Dickey Mouse” *crowd bursts into applause* this is one of the few times i really appreciate the comedic possibilities of live shows

[@Malisteen]

love griffin's window-pane glasses in these animations

[@ashleyboots3386]

I don't care what anyone says, Travis is the secret funniest brother 😄

[@easyaccessjeans]

Love the addition of all our regulars in the audience. Had fun seeing who I could find. Great attention to detail. Also the t-shirt. All your little Easter eggs are always so fun and well done 😊

[@gilbertotabares8196]

I am not letting this Mickey statue survive the heat DEATH of the universe while making a mockery of my front yard! Time to introduce it to Dr. Sledgehammer!!

[@travisshallenberger9486]

Just his expression as he's absolutely stuck on laughing at the mailbox. I BEEN there! You're hung up on how hilarious the concept of something existing in our real human world and it just SLAYS you! Also, the rain of confetti on Travis at "Dickey Mouse" was brilliant.

[@rosiespencer8081]

“The Mouse will persist” has got to be Disney’s secret slogan

[@angellin7602]

Commenting because The Naming of 2024 was so off the rails and Fungalore seems like prime Deepblueink material and its been a hot sec since the last mbmbam animation. Also if you do read this, long time fan. Came for MBMBAM stayed for dropout/drawfee :).

[@samakafrisco1759]

Adoring the touch of adding lapel mics in the animation

[@oriousblack]

To paraphrase Justin: this is so good, it’ll be there tomorrow! All your work is so wonderful!

[@veshengri]

You can Google "giant mickey mouse mailbox" and see it for real. The drawing is pretty damn accurate.

[@ZekromAndYugiAndDrago123]

I love how you can hear Justin slip into Taako from TV at 1:34

[@brendenpeninger7148]

My favorite part about this but is how just bewildered Justin is with the mailbox and it’s real world implication for the rest of the live show

[@Gallant_Silver]

i so appreciate this. i feel like people don't pay enough attention to the live episodes.

[@katherine650]

Genuinely one of my all time favorite MBMBAM moments, I can’t tell you how happy I was to see this on my feed this evening. The entire episode is one of the best they’ve done.

[@GippyHappy]

I love that you added the drawfee crew in this one because they also created a monstrosity and named it Dickey Douse which is the kind of coincidence that borders on unbelievable

[@DancingLyrics17]

I love the references to Twenty Sun and Sea with the audience sign and the laptop wave logo!

[@kizzafreak]

"I'm gonna go fly home to West Virginia tomorrow and you're still gonna have this mouse!"

Disney taking out your mailbox AND you feels a lot more real after recent disney-relevant events.

Well Mickey is entering the public domain soon so Disney might not be able to take care of it.
