Dude i swear.... your videos look JUST LIKE the old style stop motion... you could literally be making a FORTUNE doing TV Shows like this.

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

He is on his way. It's happening now, and we are on "the ground floor" as they say.

[@CheeseMiser]

Rankin Bass

[@Fernanimati0n]

Holy sh* you're right

[@shinyrayquaza9]

worthikids does it very well too

[@gunargundarson1626]

Nope, he’s obviously copying General Mills so every video he uploads will be copyright striked

[@Trainlover1995]

Still a better cereal than “Gun Shots in a Crowded Mall”.

[@ChrisMiIesChong]

Americans and there silly gun laws. Glad to be Canadian tbh

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

@@ChrisMiIesChong Yeah, Canada where you get arrested for talking on a train to Calgary. So much better. Shhhhhhhhhh - or else.

[@ChrisMiIesChong]

@@TheRadioAteMyTV at least you don’t get shot in school often

[@Vespyr_]

@@TheRadioAteMyTV Mate you can get arrested and shot just for unloading the trunk of your car on your own driveway, and the officer won't even suffer consequences thanks to qualified immunity.

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

@@ChrisMiIesChong Yeah, but the US doesn't have 4 percent of its deaths caused by the government and call it a MAID. The maids in the US just clean your house not wipe out the people who live in it.

[@TheCommenterDragon]

This is absolutely amazing Eagan! I swear your craft in Blender is truly incredible and outstanding make no mistake about it! In fact if such a cereal existed I'd definitely be interested in trying it!

[@ABlackRainbow]

It's done in blender, it's not stop motion actually. It looks amazing though!

[@TheCommenterDragon]

@@ABlackRainbow Blender, Stopmotion, Whatever. Point is it's an awesome video.

[@thewiseoldfox]

I Can't Believe it's Not Stop Motion™

[@SuperFlashDriver]

@@thewiseoldfox XDDD Well, technically it's using Animagic, the same techniques the Japanese artists and crew, hired by Rankin Bass, to do the christmas specials using 35mm film...This, it's kind of hard to tell if it's made in Blender or not, considering how far technology is going to go until it looks like a portal of the same exact world but cartoon characters come to life in our world (including video game characters as well), I wouldn't be shocked if the next horror trend would be to have monsters inside your house to scare you during the night or daytime, when you're in the comfort of your own house trying to attack you in every place possible.

[@RealMatthewWalker]

I’m writing a novel based on the father brown short stories. Priest detective fight a killer clown cannibal like John Wayne Gacy. He paints self portraits in prison. He eat a lot of people but the guards gave him a bunch of paint so that he would stop eating the guards. Super evil super over the top but no pro nouns. I’m gonna make The Illuminati good guys I have one of their assassins. Follow the priest around Love hate frenamie bromance. Best bros platonic. No woke no woke gets poned no libs no trad cons just The police showing up to a local TV show station in the middle of the night. Children’s show host has been murdered and the only witness is the puppet. Puppet just sitting in the hospital bed drinking a juice box and he said he didn’t see anything. Maybe a little Elmo puppet crawling around on the ceiling. Fun. What do you think?

[@RebelScum312]

Thank you for making this tribute to some beloved cereals of my youth, vintage commercials, Rankin Bass, Halloween, classic monsters & Hannibal Lecter! Wonder what the prize in the box is, a knife sharpener whetstone, salt/pepper shakers, spices, the possibilities are delicious.

[@spencerhollidayofficial]

That's what I was thinking

[@calipurnioelreydelodio7141]

Man, I'm not even from America, but now I want some Cereal Killer for Breakfast.

[@harryballsacky]

NO CEREAL FOR YOU

[@gunargundarson1626]

Wait until you find out it tastes like Long Pork

[@harryballsacky]

@@gunargundarson1626 tube steak....?

[@SuperSlimeSoda]

Brilliant work. Love the cereal name "Cereal Killer" well played.

[@disneyknightspadilla1406]

I drew a villain name crunchless the cereal killer.

[@thatswhatshesaid2777]

It's a classic pun.

[@douziasher]

HOW IS THIS NOT POPULAR??? I absolutely love how this short was made!

[@pauli7051]

This guys creativity is absolutely incredible. I hope artists like this will be appreciated

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

Appreciated doesn't pay the rent. Let's hope for cash flow to keep making more.

[@The-Rod]

I don’t even like cereal, but I want the cereal to be real so bad. You should make some Murch with this I would totally wear a T-shirt with serial killer on it.

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

He could probably do that going forward if he finds a way to include original characters in the mix.

[@wyattsaum272]

*cereal killer

[@zenoblues7787]

I don't know if I want to taste human liver flavor.

[@lamenwatch1877]

​@@zenoblues7787He didn't specify human liver, so it could be cow liver or something. Still a bizzare flavor for cereal, though.

[@seanoreilly632]

Once again your animation amazes. It looks exactly like the old ranken bass stop motion.

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

I wonder which one takes longer to do start to finish, Blender or traditional stop motion? Blender is not a fast program to work in.

[@PixelCaptain132]

This is awesome, the amount of effort it must take to recreate the vintage stop-motion style in Blender must be crazy. Great job!

[@SteveDC101]

This is awesome great job.

[@iTowers03]

Cooking some "killer" content as always 🍳 The blend between live-action & animation is beautifully done in this video, and I really appreciate the creativity & hard work that went into this one! Much love to the whole team 💚

[@tokonikio]

This feels like a real ad! Love the voice acting. This is good.

[@RavenStarMedia]

This is incredible! You perfectly capture the old vintage style of both Rakin-Bass stop-motion (and done in Blender too!) and 70's commercials! Also props to the voice actors!

[@YaBoiDoi]

I adore this style of mixing real life with stop motion blender.

[@Feburg]

man love that classic screen fillter and the whole vibe

[@SweetOrangeGirl]

This cereal killer sounds delightful!

[@timesnewlogan2032]

Count Chocula looks like he's straight out of a Rankin-Bass special. Well done!

[@comaz7363]

Cereal Killer actually sounds really good

[@DanielLave25280]

I Love This Parody And Love Your Rankin Bass Style Animation

[@flintlockbeithir4823]

truly a more gruesome flavour has never been made

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

Fiber One is real and looks like dehydrated maggots, and for all I know really is.

[@aGoosenamedJordan]

Here before Saturday!

[@dimancor2925]

I got your Scooby Doo animation recommended just today and as i watch through your channel you release a new video. You're amazing my dude, don't listen to those twitter stupidasses. Good luck to you !

[@dimancor2925]

Oh and of course, Happy Halloween!

[@bernardomarkuskampffdemelo4323]

I love how realistic the businessman is

[@dyinginside821]

love it! your animations are beyond impressive, can’t wait to see what you do in the future aswell. 🙂

[@343Anbu]

Some more awesome work! Just rewatched springtrapped earlier too, excited to see what you come up with next!

[@yoanavalero8607]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE 😍

[@Dippyslope]

This should be a real flavor for this halloween

[@RetroFreak35]

It’s amazing you had a Marlon Brando-esque cereal mascot for this satirical short. Nice job and an A+ for this animation!

[@slash7111]

This is so cool, I love this

[@DarthRelkew]

Dude this is phenomenal!!! I love your videos!

[@KyProRen]

Now this video is just hilarious. The look on everyone's faces when Cereal Killer said what flavor his cereal is was just perfect. Happy Halloween!

[@KKAkuoku]

You didn’t just nail the old-school stop motion vibe here, but also that super specific film-transferred-to-videotape look from the early 90s. You seriously deserve all the praise your getting right now and more.

[@HotFuss-gd9qr]

Your Rankin Bass style fits perfectly with the 70s Monster Cereals commercials. Honestly, I am down for some Cereal Killer right now.

[@gpla-ster9032]

Impressive. Even in Blender, you made it resemble the old Rankin Bass specials.

[@SatanRomps]

Youre just cranking out one masterpiece after another. ❤

[@spes8002]

The Fnaf Movie of yours is the best animation I have ever watched. I wanna part 2. In Sister Location! With Circus Baby, Ballora and Funtimes!!!

[@ncrophobia]

This was actually awesome dude

[@Scarfy101]

this has no right to be as charming and well-made as it is, i cannot wait to see what else you upload in the future. this is outstanding, i'm glad i got this in my recommended. i wish you luck with all of your future endeavors!

[@MZSSTUDIO]

Nice animation and nice voices! Good job!

[@grapeflavoreddragon]

love it, thankyou!

[@emirozdemir-wallywest1426]

This reminds me nickelodeon's old stop motion KaBlam! shorts.

[@thefantasticretroreviewer3941]

It does?

[@placeholderdoe]

Amazing

[@unkirbyjosuke1904]

good thing i finished my cereal before watching.

[@TheAnimalKingdom-tq3sz]

Everybody gangsta till Grey Delisle makes another rant with this one

[@francorota8638]

Grey can't distinguish what is real from what is AI. I mean, she also got fooled by an AI artist.

[@larrylaffer3246]

Liver Flavored Cereal sounds like something that would've probably happened back in the day at the Ralston-Purina Factory when the Meow Mix got accidentally extruded into the same shapes as the Chex; Or just simply put into the wrong box.

[@JRAnimationStudios]

So corny! I love it!

[@Prazca]

"oh heavens no, Its a family name." . .. ... .... INTENSE THUNDER

[@alonsorojas3829]

You came out of nowhere, amazing us with this level of mastery on Blender. Truly amazing and admirable!

[@thefantasticretroreviewer3941]

Its great that he's still doing very well right now

[@zomboiyt507]

SOMEONE HIRE THIS MAN 🗣️‼️

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

Someone teach him how to run his own company and be the new Walt Disney, John Lassiter!

[@DickDarkie]

No they'll taint him like they do everyone else hell be forced into the shit tropes of animation we come to him to get way from now lol

[@jmg9509]

I love the expressiveness of the cereal killer's eyes and eyebrows. It's almost like he's talking soley with them

[@GomuGomuJutsu]

Great job 😀❤️

[@konavids]

AMAZING!!!

[@gageriddle6336]

This is so cool, I love the look of really early stop motion puppets. It’s awesome you can make it look so accurate!

[@sethmachetedemeter]

This is genuinely so freaking impressive. You recreate the look and feel of stop motion stuff like Rankin Bass so we’ll!

[@emilyaltman4318]

this video is so amazing and well put together, it made my day.

[@MsDudette21]

I love the vintage feel! Amazing! Really well done!

[@JimMilnerTHX138]

Love these animations, hope you keep making more!

[@GeneSavage]

This is amazing!!! When you started, I thought you were beginning with an original commercial clip... only to realize it was ALL original content! Amazing work, seriously... and funny on top of that.

[@thesalmonserver5871]

The lightning strike after "it's just a family name" is such an underrated bit!

[@skycreeper0173]

That was absolutely amazing! I loved it!

[@mrroomfann]

This is a really underrated channel! Your stuff is so high quality and just good!! Keep up the amazing work!!!

[@EBThisThat]

I absolutely adore everything about this, especially the comedic timing. Chocula's pure dread at Hannibal's ingredients is nothing but brilliant !

[@fanime1]

Love it. Your animation is amazing as usual. You really captured the stop motion style to a T.

[@Cobalt_Spartan]

I love this so much. This isn't even a childhood ruined thing. This is just funny.

[@ScadrianGhostblood]

Good video

[@damianrahman9935]

Dude with this much talent you should come up with a tv show

[@TordParker2.0]

This is AMAZING!!! You're very talented, keep up the amazing work!!!:),

[@soundwavedoesthings]

That is amazing! Looks just like the old Frankin Bass specials! You are getting a sub

[@palisko]

Perfect video! I want to taste the cereal killer!!

[@e-mananimates2274]

You are becoming one of my favorite animators online! I could easily see this commercial appearing in the 80s!

[@monkeyman2022]

This Cereal Killer is deranged! He put _fava beans_ in the cereal? Absurd.

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

Every one knows it's lima beans for breakfast. Duh!

[@DrAngelKins]

This ad lmfao. I love this

[@kirbowaffle]

this animation is so impressive! i have no idea how you managed to make the close ups of count chocula talking look so much like stop motion

[@realjpegmafia]

Jolly! Didn’t get a notification for this but glad to see you back and making more sick stuff !! This is KILLER !!

[@Ashbashbabyc]

God you really do make the best content on the internet. Bless 🙏🏻

[@MissyFaith1971]

Love your videos! Keep up the good work and please continue to post regularly

[@splatjam64]

Keep it up man, I love your work 🫡

[@stuff31]

How did you nail the Rankin-Bass style so well? This is amazing!

[@DonoVideoProductions]

This is incredibly well done! Just wonderful. The details are spot on, the color grade is perfection, the script is inspired! I hope this takes you far in the industry!

[@topcat59]

Great vid bro, makes me wish that this was an actual cereal brand.😺

[@TheRadioAteMyTV]

If only cereal didn't cost so much to produces and he didn't have to worry about a giant lawsuit for the cereal box, he so could have done it.

[@JamboreeBlackberry]

The fact I just had the urge to watch Silence of the Lambs makes this all better

[@Astro_Studios1]

At first I thought this was an actual commercial, it's really crazy how your videos are this good.

[@huertareyesmarcossebastian1015]

Please never stop doing this

[@whimai412]

Such a fun addition to the horror cereal crew. XD

[@drestonjclaw2839]

I never thought the old Rankin-Bass style would ever, or could ever, be recreated so well. Well done.

[@LilLionBee]

Eagan your animations always bring such a huge smile to my face you're such a silly takented dude!! :D 💖✨

[@Clenchedboot]

you and worthikids both seem pretty damn close to nailing the rankin bass look. so good

[@b0o_berry]

This is so well made and funny too! Can you make a video on how you make these cool stop motion puppets? I love how you capture the vintage style!

[@finnballinger5791]

Yeah!

[@calvinbrownanimation4152]

hahha this is brilliant, love the "...good" from hannibal

[@Lacquerhead-ec4db]

Dude, this is absolutely fantastic! The animation is absolutely killer, no pun intended, and I also love that the music cues are so similar to the ones from the OG Monster Cereal ads!

[@ThatClotpoll]

I swear this should be a legitimate commercial

[@DillonMaynard]

You never miss with these. Absolute talent!

[@hotdogwater]

This was perfect! I know it would be a ton of work, but I’d love to see the step by step process in making these!

[@calipurnioelreydelodio7141]

Don't let Grey DeLisle watch this video or she will start looking for something so she can blame the AIs.

[@thefantasticretroreviewer3941]

Not to sound rude, but lets not be reminded of that Mayhem, okay? I like her work, but she didn't have to go to far on Eagan after he made "Scooby-Doo Where Are You? in SPRINGTRAPPED" nearly 2 Months ago.
