Its happening. Everyone Stay Calm.

Oh my god - this is just amazing!!

It’s hard to believe this all happened 3 years ago. The hype while watching the streams on that day was unreal and when this animation came out 2 months later?? omg 😭 miss it honestly

1:13 Philza’s introduction always gives me such chills

Why nobody is talking about badboyhalo....hes "who cares" got me chills bruh..

SO SOS OSO SOSO OSOSOSOSOSSO OS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

three damn years later and I'm still getting goosebumps, damn consistency

1:48 The moment when wilbur was saying like 'The reason i built this nation is gone' and phil comes in and is like 'What are you doing?' and then wilbur turns around and the music is like 'what'd you say?' is like the best moment ever in the history on animation.

jschlatt: "if i die, this country goes down with me" schlatt was right

"You know if I die, this country goes down with me" -Jschlatt _Dear god he was right_

i still get chills at that last part: "You wanna be a hero, tommy?" "THEN DIE LIKE ONE!"

2:24 [2:23] I love this transition, everyone around him celebrating as it dawns on him the fact that he’s just been used, that he’s been lied to, taken advantage of. The transition as that realization sparks into rage, ready to burn everything that’s wronged him to the ground in retaliation for what they’ve done

It's only roleplay The roleplay:

its just a role play its just a role play its just a role play dont cry *the roleplay:*

3:13 dreams scream is so raw and chaotic, like he’s truly enjoying what’s he’s done, and the scene somewhere around 3:21 where it shows A dead Wilbur and Philza impaling him is also like one of my favorite scenes

2:11 This part is just amazing because of how you know and animated what a drunk person would look like, even when he has the heart attack.

THIS IS AMAZINNGGGGG! ❤❤❤

my god this is so fucking cool.

the good days

and now it‘s over, this is still a banger❤️

JUST NOTICED IT SAYS “SUCK IT GREEN BOYY” on the independence

Everyone: *has detailed faces* Fundy: • - •

2:59 This single line still gives me chills

The fact that everything about wilbur just came out is hard to see things as we used to

EPICCC

"You want to be a hero Tommy? Then die like one." Animators: *It's free real estate*

Two years later and I still believe this is the best animation yet. The way all the characters and dialogue were portrayed is just absolutely bone-chilling. I especially love the way Wilbur was portrayed, the way his eyes were were just *LEGENDARY*

Prime Dream SMP. Current is just sad.

This is better than most movies on Netflix

SHE EVEN MADE SCHLATT'S HEART ATTACK LOOK COOL

Ah yes. Dream smp lore. Cant forget the old moments.

Putting the "Don't you see history repeating itself" and "It was never meant to be" right after it is so genius

All this and Tommy’s braces are still intact.

Everyone else:🔪🩸⚔️🗡💣 George just building his house:😊😐🚪🏠

Damn, time sure does fly. This is gonna be a long comment. Three years ago, I opened up youtube and the first thing that was recommended to me was this animatic as the #1 trending video. By then I've already heard countless talks of the infamous Dream and his SMP, but I didn't show any interest since I moved on from minecraft and it seemed strange compared the 2010s community. However as a lover of animation I can't help but wonder what kind of animated content based on a minecraft sever can be so good to be the top trending video at the time. So I clicked on the video from curiosity, and thus marked the day I joined the Dream SMP community. When I finished this animation, I was absolutely blown out of the water by shock. What the actual heck just happened? Because what I just watched was genuinely one of the best animations I've seen with beautiful cinematography and perfectly captured the emotions of the characters and portrayed it in a way where the audience feels it too. I instantly loved Wilbur's character and scenes at 1:47 and 2:43 was so beautifully done that it always gave me chills every time I watch it. As a person who has never watched or know about anything in the Dream SMP, this animation single handedly made me hooked. I suddenly wanted to know everything about the story behind all of the events shown that led to every scene shown in the animation since I was a sucker for dramatic scripted roleplays back then lol. Dream SMP's wonderful art community also appealed to me. I always found it strange how a minecraft server of chaotic dudes can have such a rich art community, but I suppose Sad-ist's creativity lit the spark and inspired many other artists. It was a great time where creators joined together to create amazing works, and everyone had fun. Unfortunately all great things must come to an end sooner or later. Some ends with a bang, but others slowly die out. Sadly Dream SMP was one of the things that slowly died out since everyone just simply lost interest. Ever since the climax of the story (Tommy's disc saga) most things that happened after felt like the creators were dragging the plot only for the sake of content, degrading the quality of the plot. Personally for me nothing was interesting since Wilbur's revival, so I stopped paying attention along with many others. Lockdown was also ending so everyone plus the creators were slowly getting adjusted to real life again. The tragic news of Technoblade's death was also another major reason. It isn't anyone's fault, just a sad but natural occurrence. I felt glad watching Wilbur pursuing music by starting his own band and seeing other creators moving on too. Though it may not have ended in a great way, Dream SMP flourished in a once glorious time on the internet. This is me years later revisiting Sad-ist's animations as a nostalgia trip. As I was watching I remembered many fond memories from the past, so I decided to write this comment as a tribute. I must admit that this may seem overly dramatic or sentimental of something that sounds childish to an outsider, but you can't deny the fair amount of impact this caused in a number of people's lives. It connected lots of people together during lockdown, and everyone's just simply having dumb fun. Most people in the community are really chill, excluding the uh, rather concerning part of the fandom that is known for cringe. I also admit that though they're embarrassing to the general community, people of all kinds just exists in every popular fandom. Anyway, the SMP gave many underrated creators a chance to shine. Sad-ist especially inspired me so much with her talent for creativity. With all of that said, thank you for reading! It may be too long, but this is my tribute to the Dream SMP. Thank you all for everything. Rest well, Technoblade. Thank you for everything you've done for everyone.

1:33 DUUUUUDE they even animated Tubbo stealing all of Techno's emeralds!

POV:You came back to watch this after HOG Hunt

THIS IS AMAZING

Still watch this, it's one of the best animations, I miss the dsmp, any og fans still around?

"THEN DIE LIKE ONE" - 3:19 , one of his best lines.

Schlatt dying in here: *dramatically falls down* Schlatt dying in the original: _pop_

No matter how cool Dream is hes still homeless

even if its 2024 I still watch this..

If someone decided to make a dream smp movie trilogy, then sad-ist is making the trailers.

Everyone: "has cool lines" Jschlatt: "has a heart attack"

“You don’t wanna know Tommyinnit” - Jschlatt

There once, was a blade Sharper than ever The blade cut through everything The blade, never lost a single time But who knew, the rust inside the blade Would eventually cause it to collapse He may be gone, but he will never be forgotten You may now, Rest in peace, Your Majesty

Anyone here for some nostalgia... After all happend in dream smp... And their members. Cant believe it

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT PHIL AND TECHNO’S MATCHING BRAIDS

:o This is fantastic! Especially the parts with me in them, those were clearly the best

3:09 PHIL LOOKED SO COOL WHAT THE HELL

Watching this at 1am and nostalgia is hitting me like a truck. I can't believe it's been 3 years since this came out. I miss this era so much

pov: ur here for the millionth time but still getting the chills

nobody: the chat: “HUMINA HUMINA HUMINA” “E” “STOP SPAMMING”

I absolutely love how epic technoblade always is. In game as much as in animations and more. Rest in power.

He never wanted to be the hero, yet he died like one anyways. It's a yearly tradition now. (Re)visiting tribute videos and old animatics. I still cannot believe he's really gone. Rest in peace, my king. May you find the freedom you seek in the heavens above👑❤️

SAD-ist: *makes schlatt s death seem cool* Reality: “yall smell toast?”

“It ends Tomorrow.” -Sun Tzu, The Art Of War

Something I noticed is that when Philza is on screen sometimes there’s a sound queue that plays. If you listen closely at 1:17 and 2:56 you’ll hear a little sound.

Came back here because i was missing dsmp.

watching this months later and i still get chills

BadBoyHalo's "L'manburg, Pogtopia... Who cares?" SO PERFECTTTT

it's only been 3 years but i already felt some nostalgia oh god

THE DETAIL. THE “SUCK IT GREEN BOY” ON THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDANCE

Animatic: Jschlatt *heartattack* People: *very sad* Dream SMP: Jschlatt *heartattack* People: AhHaHaaAhA

The pure dedication of techno is partially shown with that little vault. There will never be another Alex. You will be remembered techno.

this was the peak of youtube

When techno said “history repeating itself” we didn’t listen

THIS IS INSANEEEE

"Do you want to be a hero, Tommy?" *"Then DIE LIKE ONE!"* these videos still excite me 😅

Everybody: *Betrayal, drama, death, war, vengeance* George: ᵐᵘˢʰʳᵒᵒᵐ ʰᵒᵘˢᵉ

I miss the dsmp back when it was still on and now its just gone. Its almost a year now

hits harder now

TECHNO SAYING “CANT YOU SEE HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF” RIGHT BEFORE WILBUR SAYS “IT WAS NEVER MEANT TO BE” ????? HOLY SHIIIIIIT THIS IS INCREDIBLE

*This is minecraft... fricking minecraft... how can it be so epic*

“CANT YOU SEE HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF?!” That just shook my like wow- I’m jealous of how poetic and intimidating Technoblade is.

here in 2024 button

"This is just gonna be a normal survival world." Was a sentence Dream said in the first stream.

“Manberg? Pogtopia? Who cares?!”- BadBoyHalo. This line is underrated as hell!

this is fucking miles ahead of any of the other ones this is genuinely a masterpiece

I would do anything to go back

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!

Basically just taking the most dramatic parts and making them look even more dramatic to make an epic thing that everyone loves.

Just mad respect for 3:04 man, you can barely even tell if you watch it in normal speed, in 0.25 speed it’s a bit clearer, the way he jumps in and grabs him to protect him is just- beyond words. Amazing detail

1:33 Tubbo the Thief,stealing multiple stacks of emeralds

Sadist: *makes Jshlatt's death seem super epic* Reality: "Flatty... Patty..."

Can we just appreciate how techos hair is shorter, and dream still has the cut on his face from the duel?

To think after all this time Ill find myself here once again.

sobbing and crying im feeling ill rightnow whatdoyoumean its been 3 y e a rs

The moment you realize this isn’t a movie trailer is heartbreaking

Dream in animatic: A sinister villain Dream in reality: A homeless green teletubby

3 yrs later and i still get goosebumps

Every few months I come back to these videos and rewatch them all. This is peak nostalgia. SAD-ist made the DreamSMP feel important and special and exciting to me, these animations literally brought me into the fandom. She pulled the story together in an extremely compelling way, I could watch hours of this.
