It's actually pathetic that million dollar companys can't make a movie/series as good as the Alan Becker team

My son put this on my TV one day before bed. We always watch educational videos and movies before bed, so I was curious why he chose this. I've never seen anything made by Alan, but now I'm utterly thankful my son put this on. In the beginning we made jokes, but then I became completely captivated as it went on. I tell ppl this is the best "movie" I've ever seen on KZfaq.

I think the character I appreciate the most is Herobrine. Not only was him versus the Orange King an aspect of someone who's studied a topic against someone who lives the topic but also Herobrine actually understands the threat then Orange King absorbs the first Steve. He wasn't thinking "Whatever, I can still win" it was "What the hell? I think Im boned.." And even took steps to avoid getting too close. Like the level of self awareness Alan and his team put into these characters is truly a master level of story telling and so rare to see in most media.

Was streaming this on discord two days ago as a joke movie night to my friends. When they asked why I was watching stickmen I said calmly and unabashedly the damn thing had made me cry twice. They joked and didn’t really seem to believe me, carrying on convos and playing other games over the 2 hours. Realized during the Herobrine sequence it was dead quiet and they didn’t start talking again until credits. 😂

At just under 2 and a half hours with one uninterrupted narrative, Season 3 is pretty much Animation vs Minecraft: The Movie when edited together like this. Genuinely awe-inspiring how far Alan and his team have come. Edit: Also want to give praise to the planning that would've had to have gone into Season 3's narrative *years* ahead of time. Green playing the jingle from way back in the first Note Block episode so Orange would recognize him, or Blue's craving of the Netherwart that he finds in their very first visit being what kickstarts this entire adventure, to name just a couple. There are so many callbacks to things in previous episodes that seemed self-contained, but here are instrumental in moving the plot along. Very few shows nowadays play the long game to such a degree, but DAMN if the payoffs throughout this season weren't some of the best in recent memory. Now I'm just curious what seeds were being planted for Season 4...

This entire series started because of Nether Wart, ended with a family being reunited, friends finding a new friend to tag along with, a village blooming with new delight, the world of music expressing emotion, a old lost civilization being found and 5 friends ending a hard fought battle

it makes me so happy that Alan mentions the song from note blocks in the first season at least once every season. :D I hope it continues...

Better than basically every other 2 hour and a half long movie ive ever seen and not a line of dialog was spoken, bravo 👏

A 2 and a half hour KZfaq video with no words using only Minecraft and stick figures has managed to make me cry three separate times. This is one of the greatest things I've ever seen. Thanks, Alan.

I never imagined a stick figure animation would make me cry. 'The King' is easily his best "short", by far. This entire season actually wouldn't have happened if blue didn't have to fuel its manic Netherwart addiction. We all have to be glad buddy gave in to those intrusive thoughts.

what i really love is that we don't even know how powerful Herobrine exactly is until The King, where he demonstrates his ability to basically go toe-to-toe with god what impresses me even more is that Herobrine keeps his distance, he knows EXACTLY what the Ultimate Weapon is capable of, and is doing all he can to not get absorbed

I love how much they all show each other affection. They’re all constantly hugging and it makes me so happy!! Especially when they all hug when they’re happy to see each other 🥺

I find it interesting how this series evolves from just random shenanigans to a full on storyline with actual lore

2:13:14 WHOA WHOA WHOA! 7 years have passed, I am so glad that Alan remembered the very videos that are still in my heart. Thank you Alan for such a great reference.

The fact that blue knew that the piglins doesn't were with him in the first place and he doesn't want to hurt them in the piglinwar was just heartwarming. And yes I cried even though I don't cry.

Honestly, I initially thought these shorts were intended for a younger audience but then I walked into my roon with this playing on the television and I was hooked within the first 5 minutes, truly amazing and captivating. Goes to show you really shouldn't judge a book by its cover. Keep up the excellent work you guys! 🌟

The stick crew doing this: 2:23:18 Alan Becker : man wtf is going on with my computer!?

The way that it starts and ends with Blue playing a music disc is awesome, I can’t believe it’s been so long since this amazing series began and so much has happened throughout the seasons, the amount of work and dedication is insane

All of this could've been avoided... If Blue just got his damn nether wart

Ok, why is no one appreciating the cinematic music??? Yes, the animation is can’t be described beyond words but the music is just as good! Imagine watching the video with no music, that would be horrible. Anyway, the person who does most of the music is Scoot Buckley! He’s amazing and you should definitely check him out and subscribe to him for his hard work. I also wanted to say THANK YOU ALAN BECKER AND HIS TEAM! The story line, the “ dialogue” with no words, just everything is truly indescribable! You made me tear up a lot even though I’m not an emotional person, i appreciate all the hard work you put into this. THANK YOU x1000000

This is called Season 3... But honestly, this whole season deserves to be it's own movie, as much as does to win an award of some kind. Absolutely incredible stuff here.

2:21:22 “Did you do it?” “…yes” “What did it cost?” “…everything…”

Я просто в шоке.. я думал это обычный мультик для детей, а тут такой сюжет.. огромное спасибо Алану и тем кто внёс свой вклад в этот проект за такой труд! Я настолько впечатлён, что не могу даже выразить все впечатления до единого, особенно о том какой контраст был с позитивной нотной главы и такой трагичной историей фиолетового и оранжевого. Честно, я чертовски рад что такие творцы существуют в мире, продолжайте Алан, вы гений.

A detail I noticed is that at 1:40:44 he only does the copy’s once and when he realized that didn’t work at 1:41:57 he made a lot more clones of them, and when they got destroyed, at 2:11:20 he made a combination of the 2 strongest people there, showing that the king learns quickly

This is way way beyond what you would usually expect from KZfaq. Alan has successfully created the most beautiful animation out there.

I like how Alan uses the old textures for certain parts of the show. It's a nice touch.

I can’t believe it’s been a year. This whole season had the same quality as stuff million dollar companies would make. Thank you Alan, I can’t wait to see what you and your team will create next.

2:11:44 Herobrine vs King Orange... This is SO COOL 🤩

*AVM Shorts - Season 3* 0:00 - The Piglin War 12:38 - The Witch 26:25 - Parkour 43:18 - Titan Ravager 53:11 - Lush Caves 58:39 - The Ultimate Weapon 1:08:57 - The Warden 1:16:43 - Monster School 1:33:19 - The Raid 1:42:18 - Note Block Universe 1:55:19 - The King

How can an animation with stickmen and minecraft take me on such a rollercoaster of an emotional journey?? I laughed, I cried, I was angry, remorseful, sad, elated and everything in between. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you to you and your team for creating something so amazing.

1:44:00 why does this hit so hard,dang man

17:32 It caught me off guard watching the fish fight lol

The last 40 minutes of this season never fails to get me all coked up. I know everyone is saying that we should turn this into a Netflix adaptation, but can you imagine how Hollywood would ruin this beloved series? We should all be thankful that Alan Becker spends all this time to give us this much action and story for free. We should never take this kind of work for granted.

This was EASILY one of the best movies I've ever seen, and deserves the price of an admission ticket at the least. I laughed, cheered, cried, and went on this journey you've lovingly crafted for all of us; and you deserve everything positive that comes your way Alan. Thank you so much for everything you've done!

It’s crazy how alan was able to make a fish, a llama and a stickman have an intense fight with a zombie

The pigstep song on the ultimate weapon was fire

The plot, the scenery, the animation, storyline, everything is just pure masterpiece. Its better than most of the movies and series out there. Thanks for this wonderful animation, Alan.

2:26:50 The food that each of the Colored Gang is such good attention to detail even if it may not matter. The different foods they hold up is a reference to the "Actual Shorts" series. Second Coming holds up Beef as a reference to the Actual Short called, well, Beef where he's the main character. Red holds up a Bucket of Milk as a reference to Water Bucket Clutch where he tries to clutch with milk and it.. doesn't end too well. Blue holds up netherwart as a reference to his severe addiction to it which is not an Actual Short series reference or it's a reference to Carrot on a Stick where Yellow uses a netherwart version of Carrot on a Stick. Yellow probably holds up a Cooked Chicken as a reference to the Actual Short, My Ghast Friend

Never thought Alan Becker would make me cry with this 5 little guys, but he managed to do it. Amazing job and priceless animation this was!

Bro made it better then any movie💀

I can’t imagine 2010 Alan would believe where he’d be right now. Animator vs Animation has come so far, from a harmless comedy short to an engaging series which is BASICALLY A MOVIE. Excellent work.

Dude i feel like watching a netflix movie, its so good from the storyline that kinda give you anxiety, and the good animation, continue your work

At “the ultimate weapon” episode, i always didn’t like pigstep but the remix there made me like it *wow. me admiring this*

i’ve never sobbed harder man i’m still crying 20 minutes after watching 😭😭😭

The fact that Alan and his team can take Stickman and Minecraft, be able to merge the two together, and be able to make a film that takes you on a emotion roller coaster ride and give it a good story is incredible! Props to Alan and the Team!

This man’s created an entire movie out of blocks and stick figures… Mad respect ✊

🟧 brains 🟦 chef 🟩 music 🟥 fighting and loves pig 🟨 holder of command block staff

This genuinely made me cry

Yes I just watched a 2 and a half hour movie of stickmen in minecraft that had absolutely zero dialogue. Yes it was better than 99% of the stuff big corporations come out with. Yes it was beautiful. Alan Becker, I dont know how you and your team do it, but this is an absolute masterpiece

2:25:17 I'm assuming this is a reference to Techno, and I find that very heartwarming. Everyone who worked on this did an excellent job, congrats!

2:11:56 The Ruler of the Game vs. The One who Defies It

24:17 pig really said fine I’ll do it my self

Blue being the piston in the wart farm was actually vile, I love it.

Most wholesome film I've seen. Spectacular writing. No million-dollar company can imitate this level of wholesomeness.

2:25:19 Legends who saw technoblade in that pig 👀 If Alan had added dream and technoblade it would be fire. 🔥🔥

Alan literally made a better Minecraft movie than Mojave in 1000 years

Idk how ill ever watch another cinematic film as good as this. The music, expressions, and body language. I could never see anything again and id still remember this masterpiece

No words can describe how perfect this is. It's simple and complete. It has action, comedy, everything. Perfect down to the every last bit. No movie that ever existed that can even compare to this absolute masterpiece

I cried, after this you get One more fan, THATS ABSOLUTE CINEMA.

I can't believe this made me cry and this reminded me of my childhood and my father, this has healed me so much, and In the end the father realized he can never save his son but he can save a boy that he sees as his own son, and the father was blinded with guilt and rage that his own creation almost destroyed him but in the end it healed him and helped him to move on in the loving memory of his own son and his new son that never had a chance to have a father and lost his own father and the same thing for orange who had a son but lost him, its not always happy endings that help us move on but the memories that carry our precious children, parents, loved ones, and ourselves in a unique way and sometimes fear can be a drought of your own suffering and the only one to stop yourself is you but it's also a beautiful blessing in disguise for it can form us in our destination and at first it will seem hopeless but in the end it will always be worth it. "I love you Dad and I'm sorry I was taken away from you a long time ago but one day I will see you and thank you for trying to see me, I forgive you Dad for all of it"...

To think Alan had ambitions to work at PIXAR, before he was turned down. The amazing work he and his team have put out in this series ALONE shows that he was beyond qualified to be an animator at Pixar... And now, he's doing something arguably better. I can't wait to see what you guys put out in the future!

Props to Alan for making "minecraft killed my son" a compelling and emotional story

Bro madee me cry by showing the story of purple and orange king😢😢😢😢

BROOOO THE MONSTER SCHOOL PART GAVE ME SO MUCH NOSTALGIA

I think what makes this series amazing is the fact that you guys managed to make a series without any words, which means you don't need to translate and/or reanimate it to make it accessible to most of the world

the cooking scenes that bookend this whole season are such a perfect example of recontextualization. its such a benign and innocuous event in the beginning, but at the end, after everything everyones been through, after they were all so far away from home for so long, an identical cooking scene becomes such an emotional ending. theyre home! and everything is ok now💛 huge thanks to alan and the team for making this series happen

If this series ends, i will literally END myself. This is the greatest show i ever had watched. I binged watched this for like about 4 times right now and it is STILL not boring at all. PLEASE keep this animation series going and dont let it end

This Animation rate: 9999999999999999999999999998899899999999 out of 10

look i'm probably going to be singing this season's praises for the rest of my life. it's incredible how much depth this team put into a story about stick figures playing minecraft. it's a genuinely moving and creative piece, told entirely without dialogue- the perfect example of "show, don't tell". amazing.

Holy macaroni, I haven’t been this emotional in any movie before. The story, the character development, the relationships, the music(als). I enjoyed watching this so much!

All of that for some netherwart is crazy

I absolutely LOVED this season. There are no words to describe how I feel about this whole story. It was absolutely amazing and I can't believe something like this came from youtube. The fact that this all started from simple nonsense to a full blown story and deep lore is just incredible. All the fights were so well animated, the music was amazing, even the characters and story were so deep and unique, made me tear up even. I genuinely loved this whole series and cannot wait for more stuff. Once again, genuinely loved everything about this series, I hope you are as proud of it as everyone else is.

I have actually no words. Alan over these years you've created such a touching, engaging, exciting and sorrowful story WITHOUT EVEN a need to involve any words and yet still manage to express all those emotions in just a figure animation... Holy crap i couldn't help myself and cried so hard at the end. Its not just a figure animation - its a Masterpiece.

Alan Becker, you are a true legend

The animation is so very very epic🔥🔥

A whole movie with characters that are voiceless and faceless. And yet so expressive and emotional. Bravo. AND WHERE THE HELL DID ALAN'S TEAM GET AN ENTIRE ORCHESTRA, THE SOUNDTRACK IS AWESOME.

1:14:11 not even mojang could create such a fascinating and amazing backstory of the warden, and yet you did it, or its just me that didnt saw the latest updates

17:45 that fish was dominating

Blue wanting nether wart probably singlehandedly almost caused the end of minecraft, and i find that hilarious for some reason😂💙

Dude…that’s all I can say about this. Emotions and feelings that were invoked from the plot, all the way to the finer details. The soundtrack brings you into the moment, and the character backstories highlight sympathy towards them. When we dove into the past of Orange and Purple, I had a whole reality check and it opened up perspectives I never considered before. Alan, well done. I didn’t think you could top animator vs animation, but this brought it to a whole other level. Bravo Alan, bravo Edit: Didn’t expect the amount of likes this got. Hope y’all are doing well!

These 2 and a half hours were worth every second... The music, the sound effects, the story... Down right brilliant. Now to pray for season 4, if it will ever exist. Seriously though, well done Alan, as well as everyone who helped create this masterpiece. It's truly amazing.

2:19:57 This final scene is literally their final stake to save ALL of Minecraft...

How in the world does alan make such a good story without dialogue, the ending made me cry harder than i ever have from a movie

I remember watching them just do build challenges and finding a way home, but now they fought a war and explored new updates while doing it. I’m sad to see this series end, but it was fun while it lasted. Thank you Alan for working so hard to make these videos.

I was not prepared for Purple's story. I cannot put into words the thoughts and emotions that I felt while watching it. I grew up in the same situation that Purple was in. My dad was someone I was never able to be friends with. He was emotionally abusive to me, my mom and my sisters. He, like the King, seemed to only want what we could give him and not who we were. I believed for most of my life that if I couldn't do what he wanted to make him happy and like me I was pathetic, worthless and a horrible human being. It wasn't until three years ago that I realized I was feeding a black hole; a man who couldn't love. I was always told growing up that "You're not alone," which are probably the most heartbreaking words in my dictionary. Knowing that I'm not alone, that other people experience what I experienced, breaks my heart. No one deserves to go through the same situation that I did. Green came to help Purple, giving Purple hope for a future with people who care. This was the most beautiful and overwhelming part of the story. This is an amazing series and I'm looking forward to finishing ❤

bro when the blue one saved the baby piglin and then the hat fell down then the piglin hugged blue made me cry so much😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

This guy is a legend, he entertains us with animations since 16 years ago, amazing animations, he adds a lot of lore to stickmans, I can't explain how incredible of a person Alan is, thank you Alan, please, never give up :)

for real man, you should turn this into a movie, being serious here, i would tottaly watch

I can't believe an animation movie with zero dialogue nearly got me crying.

1:42:13 The way that just changed from the end of the world to a ultra happy musical, i love this

Not a single word in that movie. More heart than multi million dollar movies I've seen

It's beautiful how the story of purple & of king orange mixed together to create the perfect bond with eachother; they were meant to meet🥺🥹

Doctor: dreams have meaning My dream: 1:42:20

2:20:50 Pov: You're memory when you're about ot take a final exam that's worth 95% of you're grades

No one could imagine how strong herobrine is he break bedrock block like they are just nothing He could actually defeat king but since king have been studying minecraft for years he knows the mechanism of minecraft more than anyone any character in this series

I have watched this for 2 HOURS in ONE sitting without getting bored.

19:55 I can never unsee a walking grass block.

Unironically the best story this century. You've gone so beyond Minecraft and created your own art medium in of itself. Keep up the great work.
