Not So Gone - Game Grumps Encapsulated

I don't know how to use Tumblr: / thatspyisascout
Let's take a moment to remember Jon. A different era of Game Grumps. He made us laugh, cry, and yell at the screen for not knowing what to do. Let's usher in a new era of Grumps. Danny is a funny guy. At first I was unsure, but the new Grumps have revealed their chemistry and put out some good videos. So, give the new guys a chance, huh? Ross too.
Scene 1- throwup scene - Megaman 7 - WE BOTH VOMIT Finale 1
Scene 2 - bad green screen - Kirby Super Star Ultra 1
Scene 3 - western grumps - Wild Guns - The Emberassed Train 2
Scene 4 - grand canyon - Sonic '06 part 59
scene 5 - 3,2,1,FIGHT - Playstation All-stars finale
MUSIC: MichiriNeko March, Pokemon GSC Route 38, unnamed HL2 track, and Jontron theme (obviously.)
Custom models: Casual medic - MaxofS2d, Femscout Cocktail - Maxofs2d, Rebbacus, Ayesdef, Grivory G Revzin.
Shitty beard and Jacque textures by me.
Why did you choose Danny as the Sniper and Ross as Medic?
There were a couple of things to consider when choosing the classes of the two new grumps... In the Jon era, the heavy being Jon and scout being Arin, there was a chemistry. It was easy to imagine the heavy and scout just sitting on a couch, playing video games and being mad at each other, since its sort of a similar relationship in the Meet the Team videos and comics. Fan-created machinimas and stories in general also kinda promote this.
When deciding which class Danny would be, there was a dilemma. He most visually resembled the scout, but you can't have two scouts on-screen talking at each other. It would be weird. Second choice was the sniper. He's tall like danny, has 5-o-clock shadow, but has relatively little "class-chemistry" with the scout. Sniper and scout don't really do anything together in videos or comics. There was also another tiny problem. Danny and Ross share their show Steam Train and Ross is obviously an Aussie like the sniper. So there were 3 candidates for the roles of the new Grumps: Sniper, Medic, and Spy. Spy, since there was good class chemistry between the Sniper and Spy.
Also, Barry is best as Engineer and Suzy should probably be femscout. I have not found any IK-friendly goose models.
Ultimately, I decided that Danny best fit Sniper while Ross most visually resembled Medic. It was a difficult decision to make. And one I probably spent way too much brain-power on.

Oh god, I almost cried when Jon laid the controller into Danny's hands.

Holy shit, that "Ascension of Jon" scene was epic.

[@spacecore6000]

The music used throughout this video REALLY made the entire video. Fantastic job.

[@MINTY_FN]

Jaques driving the car really made this video.

[@shitfaceeduardo]

I think thatscoutisaspy made the video...

[@thatscoutisaspy]

[@fellow3796]

+Lester Walker GUESS WHAT! ITS NOT DONE YET

[@TheDuality0fMan]

These Game Grumps SFM are such a lost art form. I loved discovering these a few years ago, but now it seems no one's making them.. at least we still got these to appreciate.

[@Cozmosus]

That was wonderful. I especially liked the part where Heavy Jon gave Bushman Danny his blessing for Grumps.

[@BonesawIsReady47]

Too bad it didn't really end that way and we're left in the dark on how they treated Jon and such. But, it should probably remain that way so we don't hate either party and take sides.

[@rikowolfin4984]

PsychoticDreams0 Its not in the dark, they are still friends its just that Jon wanted to do his show and had to move to New york making it impossible to do Game Grumps. They don't want to talk about it because people always bring it up and try and make it a thing when it really isn't, its not like they left on bad terms its just that life got in the way of them doing the show.

[@OdinCasts]

Riko Wolfin everyone wan'ts to feel like they're part of the group so they just make conjecture as to what happened, even though they straight up said there was no dissent between the two, it was just a life choice for Jon.

[@niney5405]

Two years later. And they meet once more. The probability of the prophecy was fulfilled.

[@Shlungoidwungus]

Can I just say, the Jontron theme music just makes me absurdly happy for no real reason. I hear it and I just smile. Every single time. Even if I'm not actually gonna watch the video, the music just makes me smile. Is that odd?

[@Successkid2014]

I have to agree, that theme song makes me think good times are ahead. And that I'm going to be in for a good laugh.

[@Shlungoidwungus]

***** Get the fuck outta here with your nonsense.

[@crazytot10]

That's Chiptune music for ya! Look at a band called Anamanaguchi, a great chiptune band, and they have a song called Airbrushed in which I swear to god very time you listen to it rainbows blow out your ears.

[@jakehowe6151]

The them at the end made me tear up...

[@Shlungoidwungus]

Jake Howe I learned Jon's theme on piano and played it over a recap of the EgoTron era. The feels exceeded infinite.

[@CaptainIronpaw]

God damn it's been months and this still gives me them feely feels.

[@ahotmess3331]

Me too man. Me too

[@SolidSanicsIlluminarty]

He will be remembered... as not so grump...

[@YungBeezer]

This made me cry.

[@mrcocoloco7200]

Me too

[@danielcampos1715]

Well, this was the best ode to Jontron i´ve ever seen.

[@blurplepie]

I remember when I first watched this. I was still reeling a bit from how Jon wasn't a part of the grumps any longer, but this SFM definitely softened the blow for me. Thanks, thatscoutisaspy. For not only making this, but for doing all that it is that you do.

This video made me a bit teary eyed. I haven't been a fan of GG since the beginning, but this made me realize that Jon really was a huge impact on GG. He was part of a wonderful arc (: he may be off in NY, but we have Danny, and that's okay (: maybe he'll come back someday for Guest Grumps :D

[@basilanan]

It is so strange that this gave me feels.

[@allindignant]

The ending with Jon leaving with Jacques to the JonTron music was pretty damn good.

[@CascadianRanger]

All I really needed is as Jon is leaving, his theme is playing, for him to have one small smile. And it cuts to arin, and as a tear emerges, he smiles back. And so ending the Troneration. And entered the Daneration

[@temerson2]

May this video never die.

[@WTrewarthaJones]

2:35 is definitely my favourite bit

[@SurrealKeenan]

I almost cried the first time I saw it

[@bongus796]

[@GroundMemory]

Definitely epic and emotional. This work is beyond excellent, thatscoutisaspy. Truly, hats off to you.

[@JoeytheJoeyX3]

In its own silly way, this is really beautiful. The fun, the wondering, the departure, the new arrivals, and the fun of what's to come of those that left. Game Grumps. Grump on.

[@GREGXCELENTEFILM]

that was fucking awesome. I feel intimidated making my own SFM now haha.

[@thatscoutisaspy]

[@chris55729]

First time I saw this was by accident.. I didn't know about Arin, Jon or the game grumps.. It was so well programmed, and it looked like that this video had emotion in it.. Needless to say I instantly fav'ed it.. Many months later, having already watched both new and old game grumps, I came to the conclusion that this video is more like a treasure and therefore its value is immeasurable.. Congratulations to you Sir, who made this video! :-)

[@KingGhidorah5464]

This was truly a special time to be a Game Grumps fan.

[@joshuaobrien4479]

Most epic use of the JonTron theme ever. Loved it. I would have loved it more if you had kept up the epicness of him floating away into the heavens though. It looked like a more comical version of the end of Crisis Core that still managed to be awesome, but then it got funny. Funny is good, but it threw of my... groove? Or something? Meh, still epic.

[@ZoronTheBoi]

7 years later, 7 long years. This is still such an amazing video

[@StoutShako]

That was so fucking beautiful. Seriously, it was.

[@GameBrainShow]

I cannot count how many times I've watched this video, and there's only one word to describe it: Byotiful

[@Aalata]

I wish GameGrumps Season 1 had ended like this. And not in a fan-induced passiv-aggressiv awkward silence with surpressed anger and so many questions unanswered.

[@liamwillauer9677]

This was the most beautiful thing I've seen of all time.

[@LchanOtakudom]

That was awesome! That ending... I have tears in my eyes, it was so beautiful!!

[@TheJigsaw1591]

I believe jon was there to teach as he said "YOU CAN ACTUALLY HAVE FUN". All the scenes show how Jon has influenced Arin. And other than Jon's real reason, he had nothing more to teach Arin, so he left.

[@beatzdyer]

I'm sorry Danny you may be a worthy successor to jontron but you can never replace him

[@hoovy5147]

Well MAYBE people should STOP comparing him to Jon and just let him do what he wants to.

[@goodsocksproductions9397]

Jon is irreplaceable

[@callmefox630]

Jon is the guy who leads half the comedy in GG. Danny is the one who brings out twice the Grump from Arin.

[@trod146]

김지웅 that's a very good way of putting it

[@Selsius96]

Lol, in that V-Gun bit the Heavy is like: I'm proud of you, son.

[@RomulisGaming]

I nearly cried omg this is beautiful

[@SideSmash]

Props for using the Pokèmon Gold music. Also props for everything else.

[@ahotmess3331]

The things this has made me feel. A tear was indeed shed.

[@RayMKlll]

I'll say this right now...You made a great video about the Grumps. And the way you Portrayed Jon basically just shoving the torch into Danny's hands was rather amusing. And the Ross bit I partially saw coming. All in all, keep up the pace.

[@erbigames]

Although Ross is Australian, Sniper fits better with Danny, Its more of the personality that the culture. Ross fits medic because he is a big nerd "*Pokes fun at Ross*"

[@tonyo6261]

Rory Pagett Plus, Sniper isn't Australian.

[@oktober4803]

I'm ngl. I didn't even know who Game Grumps were when I watched this as a kid. Now I'm grown up and I've been watching Game Grumps for 5 years and Holy shit. When I first watched this I cried just because of the mood of the video. Now I cry for many... MANY more reasons re-watching it now

[@TacComControl]

How the turn tables. Two of the grumps in this video are no longer with the grumps.

[@ChapuleTaylor]

Your animation style is some of the best I've ever seen.

[@tsurugikage]

Every time I see that heavy leave with Jontron's music, I get shivers.

[@CaptainGrubZ]

2:19 Dat heartwarming feel when you see Dan standing there all awkward-like XD

[@Jmoon56]

i cried at the end

[@Chadkins]

Me, too...

[@waldatheboye]

Everyone, I think.

[@thewatcher509]

I smiled

[@waldatheboye]

mj bumagat Well, i almost cried but when Danny appeared I start laughing. :3

[@Jmoon56]

if you guys could check out my channel i'd be really grateful

[@SeekerPsycho1]

This is the perfect mixture of nostalgia, happy, sad, and funny. Bravo sir. Bravo. You really know how to set up a scene and execute a story.

[@Dr_Monitor]

I love how Arin is always depicted as Scout, Jon is always Heavy, Danny is Sniper, and Ross is the Medic. Also, Jacques driving the car made me wheeze.

[@SmugDampe]

I don't want to admit how many times I have watched this, it's so perfect

[@justinstephens8432]

When the jontron theme kicked in, I got them chills

[@MrSumbody69]

Dude this was so very epic. Kudo's, really man kudo's. Very rarely does a GG animate give me goosebumps and feel any sort of real emotion. Thank you.

[@BrooklynThomas92]

I miss JonTron, At first i was like it's not GG any more but then I gave Dan and ross a chance, and While i still miss him, I enjoy game Grumps

[@akaiclone02]

I can't even put into words how amazing this video was. you captured the feeling of the show I love the background music you play during the first of it. it reminded me of azumanga daioh and truly emphasized the fun loving nature of John and Aaron. and the music that plays when ever you leaving (wipes tears away) the whole video, simply beautiful

[@KingNatetheGreat100]

I'm not kidding right now that jontron music literally almost made me cry

[@ScrotumJoe34]

me too

[@Le_Reinforcements_have_arrived]

There are no words for the feels this video made me remember... I too doubted the new Grumps...for all of 2 weeks, lol. Can't wait to go to Grumprusalem when I finally die in glorious battle...

[@Happy-yx2tf]

And... that was one of the greatest endings to anything ever.

[@thatscoutisaspy]

Yup. I still remember the first day it happened. I had watched Gamegrumps every day and ate my dinner to it. It was such a regular thing I started feeling like I was actually buddies with these guys. I think that's how a lot of people felt. Jon leaving was hard for me to come to terms with, but what most people don't or didn't realize was that these guys aren't just entertainers. They're actual human people who have wants and desires. You can't control where they lead their life.

[@stonehands72]

Almost brought a tear to my eye when I heard JonTron music.

[@Efreeti]

Almost? ALMOST?

[@spchimp]

That little bit of the Nintendoland theme when Jon crashed fit perfectly. :D I almost kinda wish it was louder.

[@thelivingliver6715]

.......AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO ACTUALLY CRIED FROM THIS

[@kyleec.7455]

I'm late, I know. I didn’t cry. Idk how it’s sad

[@MCDwarf1]

It's fucking beautiful. Its a memory of the best time you know before jontron died like 3 times

[@ShadowXloner]

God I can't stop loving this video. It puts together some of the best parts of Game Grumps and god, I gets such an emotional reaction from me. I love this video, I love it so much. Especially, the shot of Jon passing his Not So Grump title to Danny, it has an air of, honor to it. Just feels good to watch you know?

[@TheSarcasticBrony]

0:48 There's something that seems so badass about that moment. Maybe it's the hat tipped in a jaunty fashion.

[@saharsingh5385]

Great video man. Had a tear in my eye at the end. John and Arin two best buds you can never separate

[@VerkatosEnsei]

So I'm only seeing this now... That was... beautiful. I almost did legit tear up once the JonTron theme started playing. Danny, Ross, we love you, but Jon, you will be missed.

[@MrZestyOnion]

I can't wait for the next! These are gold. 😄

[@DanTheMagic8Ball]

2:23 NO REALLY ROSS IS SPY!

[@bigguy13258]

DanTheMagic8Ball-that's medic.

[@Snobsy101]

This was such a perfect video. From the facial expressions to the background music, it showed how amazing of a duo Arin and Jon were. I felt that Jon's leave was sudden and didn't provide any closure that it was a mutual parting. This video, although it is fictional, makes me feel content about Jon pursuing his own adventures and doing his own thing. You sir deserve much more praise and views and hopefully a shout out from the Grumps because this is the video they should have published.

[@purplehive6730]

The last part (for real) brought tears to my eyes.

[@Halvos12]

Yes, Jon falling hurt many peoples feelings.

[@BrabusTKR]

You sir have made the two best game grumps animations on youtube

[@Spergalishus]

When the Johntron theme music it I was nearly in tears. I'm not ashamed either.

[@PositiveVibes94]

I come back to this video every year or so, whenever I miss grump Jon

[@ImmaLittlePip]

Same that and I watch a few classic GG episodes That goof troop playthrough is still one of the best

[@gouobo]

People shouldn't think of is as Dan replacing Jon. Think of it like, Jon wanted to do something new, something fresh, so he handed the title of Not so Grump to Dan to fulfil his role.

[@ajsharp5806]

I absolutely loved that last part with Jon flying away with his theme

[@AngryNerdBird]

2:35. There go my feels.

[@toplvl2004]

for real, felt sad as fuck =(

[@TheBaconDeity]

such feel. many sad. so unhappy. wow...

[@AngryNerdBird]

Very grumpe.

[@djalexander7723]

I almost cry😢

[@InvertedZach]

this guy is the best at animating in SFM, at least compared to what i've seen. i like this guys work is what im trying to say. good job, man, good job

[@homerjr.3881]

Guest Grumps: Jontron, Danny, and Arin finish Sonic 06. The people want it!

[@GameBrainShow]

Jon Buehler I believe either Arin or Jon have said that they wouldn't finish Sonic 06 because they have nothing more to say about the game

[@Nathan55411]

Nick B But they made a pact that they would finish it. Did they forget about it or something?

[@doctacos1]

+Nathan55411 Promises made through impulse and emotion are not promises to be kept. Such promises are only the devil's words, playing through your mind, through your heart to have you believe that a reality that was, can still be. When it is truly a reality that can not and can never be. Oh, what a wonderful day

[@jaytenfwammers6659]

I love this. LOVE. IT. Dat "heartwarming" nostalgia with the chipper music just nails the feels. If I may add some constructive criticism, though. When the door flies open and Jon is leaving, I keep expecting some sort of echoing blast from the impact. And maybe like a "whooshing"/wind (quieter as the camera changes angles) effect while they're watching him float away. That is all. Keep up the great work!

[@GothamKnight-hsw4vx526430]

This...is so....perfect..............I, I can't even. I cant EVEN. I can't ever un-feel that.

[@Jocool1231]

[@BovineDesigns]

Back in the day before Arin was the "Fat One"

[@jomolisious]

you've outdone yourself yet again. not only are you great at animating and visualizing existing scenarios in an interesting and enjoyable way, you are able to create new original scenarios (not simply a game grumps moment) . you are a great animator who puts quality over quantity, a value not seen as much as it should be in youtube. keep animating!

This was REALLY amazing! It really has the soul of gamegrumps!

[@dotnleave]

may have cried a bit when jons theme played

[@iM4XVolume]

At 2:20, even Jon's hat is a little happy to see someone to continue Game Grumps in his place. It went from blue to red. Also, the SFM videos that you have made were awesome and have inspired me to (maybe) do some videos for myself (someday). You have all your fans supporting you to keep moving forward, so keep it up!
