Double Munch Squad - MBMBaM Animation

[@GeneralEverywhen]

I don't know if this is intentional, but it feels like you always draw Justin as being *right on the brink* of a mental breakdown at all times. And I think that's just great.

[@linneanelson6018]

Yesss the little eyebrow twitch while he was playing guitar was 👌

[@amfram]

Considering his recent tweet in stuffed crust? Yeah they finally hit their mental breakdown

i dont even know what i mean by this, but this is the strongest moment in mbmbam history???

[@benreed638]

I think about this exact moment at least once daily so im gonna have to agree

The energy Griffin emitted was powerful enough to singe the eyebrows off god

When they came to Orlando we got a haunted doll watch / munch squad mashup and I was screaming!! 😂

if it helps they seem to edit out a LOT of people being really rude, shouting their own jokes, and stuff like that.

cries in european ... and in pandemic

[@PappyBiceps]

The rotating shot while he mouth riffs a broken guitar is very well done!

[@RhombusObstacle]

"Broken"?

[@rorygiambalvo2955]

One of my absolute favorite bits because it came from a place of brotherly love to brotherly getting dunked on. And you KNOW Justin was biding his time the entire first munch until he got to wreck Griffin with the second.

[@Itsgriffeys]

No good deed goes undunked

[@danielurban3416]

You KNOW I read that in Griffin's voice.

[@TheoTasker]

I love thinking about the venue staff, many of whom have never listened to MBMBAM, and trying to guess their reaction to an auditorium full of people screaming "SQUAD" in response to some guy making guitar noises with his mouth.

[@oskarbondesson4936]

TWICE none the less.

[@Hannah-ologist]

I really REALLY love how Justin never defended himself when Griffin accused him of being passed out and not doing his work for the show and just HELD that for when he got his turn. Truly some good brother stuff.

[@jimmysmickles7598]

The cinematic parallax as we circle around Griffin is absolutely amazing, so well animated.

[@okok-xr5ut]

The best part of this is Griffin thinks he's helping Justin out by taking on Munch Squad duty, but in reality Justin is being magnanimous and letting his little brother feel that Munch Squad surge.

[@howardyanow2883]

I can deeply relate to the anxiety that would cause Griffin to panic google a food fashion crime ten minutes before showtime.

[@abj6920]

The amount of E·MO·TIONS present in griffin as he sings are just wonderful

[@IntrusiveThot]

He just wants to cut to the feeling

[@katrinafraser4499]

The depth in this animation is absolutely blowing my mind

[@microwavemad]

Something about "You know I was gonna take care of you, Milwaukee (or however it's spelled)!!" just makes me feel s a f e.

Justin's little eyebrow twitch when he sings is giving me life. How the hell do you pack so much detail into these things?

The 360 shot thoooooo SOOOO CLEAN The Camera Work is AWESOME 0:46 The zoom-in and pull-out's mmmm so good

[@ravyntaylor6982]

I just keep rewatching this. The earnestness with his Griffin says “I wanna munch” is everything

[@jacobstordahl4393]

I love how griffin simply nailed the munch squad intro more than justin ever has.

[@leaffinite2001]

He knew this was his opportunity! Hes not gonna waste it

[@genuineinterest]

Younger brother ENERGY

[@betterlatethannever4536]

Like... the fake guitar was crisp, but Griffin didn't quite make the high note, which Justin later sliced through cleanly. The message was clear "You can't put me out on the ice floe yet, youngling, your head voice is weak."

Can I just say that good lord, I mean my god! Both Griffin and Travis glasses are HUGEEEEE! Imagine going to a eyecare service to buy a pair of prescription glasses, and all of them are like the size of your own head. Honestly that sounds a great gag gift, oversized giant glasses. Instead of four eyes, I'm BIG EYES 👁👁

Griffin had that munch squad intro in him for a long time, and it burst out like a beautiful butterfly.

[@echoberson]

I have been following you a while, and I am going back to some of my older favorites, like this one. I cannot believe how much you've progressed in your animation. It is truly incredible, and I am so delighted and proud!

DBI, I gotta say. I've been following your content for a year or so, primarily through McElroy and Drawfee animations, and it is CRAZY how much you've improved since this animation. It's not bad by any means, but the quality between this, and some of the more recent ones, is very stark. Congratulations.
