In the world of documentary, THE MAJESTIC PLASTIC BAG is, in my opinio, a great piece. Innovative, creative, factual...it may leave sub-subjects out, but every communicational tool does! Great work!
It depends on what your goals are, and how sturdy your bag is. I've been using the same shopping bags for groceries since I moved out on my own, roughly 18 months ago. Instead of 200 plastic bags, my groceries during that time have been packaged in TWO reinforced recycled bags. That's a huge difference, and IMO if people started carrying sturdy reusable bags with them everywhere, we'd see less garbage in landfills and oceans and less petroleum&water used on manufacturing a throwaway item.
What I like the most about this video is that it not just the usual kind of movies we got used to. It is more about art rather than social appeal. Definitely, love it! The idea is brilliant.
Well done and informative. I believe this should be a "must-watch" in all grade schools, public and private. The subject is important to all future generations, as are the detrimental destruction of the rainforests and the coral reefs.
i watched this in school to talk about eco-friendly stuff or something like that and when it ended there was this one student who said "so wait. the plastic bags have thoughts and feelings?" or something like that and i and the rest of the class thought how stupid that was.even the teacher told her that it's not real. she wasn't asking as a joke either. she was genuinely THAT stupid!!😂😂😂
James Kohls Whilst in poor taste, and I'm not sure why you're posting as if a quote that may have been published, I concur. The problem is, it's only inspirational to those that give a shit. Violetta Schmieder There's greater youtube crimes than this, I'm sure you'll agree.
Sue Mead Maybe you couldnt sence it in my comment sue, but it wasnt meant as criticism, but harmless and funny. "There's greater youtube crimes than this, I'm sure you'll agree" -Sue Mead Nice punctuation, by the way ;D
In my area in NY state they are still everywhere but at least often be reused and returned to the markets for recycle. This video is a great message, fun, and very well done. There's hope for the future yet!
***** I'm unclear on what you mean by "it's rubbish." If you are saying you think this is a stupid video, I have to disagree. I mean mocumentaries might seem like a stupid thing, but really they are pretty hard to pull off, and are, in my opinion, comically genius considering the principle is to poke fun of something, make it funny, yet use documentary techniques so it needs to look serious, and the actors need to sound like they aren't in on it. This video I think was very well done, and it even had a promotional message in it.
This video is hilarious and yet, sadly true. Plastic DOESN'T belong in the ocean. This was a very original, funny way to convey this message, and having the great Jeremy Irons as the narrator makes it 1,000 times better and funnier. :)
+robert ocampo You dumbass, the Plastic Bag is a *sub-species* of the common Paper Bag. The key difference being the Plastic Bag is much quicker and agile as it is found in urban areas and must escape from the territory of any Foam Cups that they enter (As they are very aggressive if provoked.) The Paper Bag on the other hand, lives in forests where it can camouflage with surrounding trees.
Congratulations on over 2 million views! Sadly, a plastic bag followed my teenager home today... ...and so we had to watch the video AGAIN! Even better the second, and third time around!
This is the most meaningful mockumentry I have ever watched, I wish I had a pet plastic bag to save it from these dangers.
no reply at 194 likes let me fix that
I cried. Truly, these bags are some of nature's most remarkable creatures.
Bro it's funny because it's a mockumentury
@@Rambertratit's very emotional 😭
I used this on a presentation over plastic bags for a GT class in elementary school and it is still one of the best videos I’ve ever seen
Who else is watching this for a school project

Lmao

We must protect the species of plastic bags lest they be endangered
Lol!

They need to be endangered. Otherwise we’re gonna be endangered.
My teacher showed this to me and my class last year. She gave us an assignment. I can't believe people littler that much. Our generation needs to do more for this enviroment.
Which is why we in South Australia banned these things years ago. Our gulf waters are so much cleaner, our marine life so much healthier as a result.
Jeff McMahon isn't the Great burial reef dying
that doesn't exist poopy bum bum
The Great Barrier Reef is in Queensland, on the other side of Australia.

I live in Queensland and single use plastic bags are banned here too

OK, you've convinced me. From now on I'll carry my poor little plastic bags to the shore and throw them into the sea myself. [jk]

You know you're on the weird side of UA-cam when you're watching a documentary about plastic bags
no taxis ikr
dont u mean a Mockumentary lol ;)
Yeah pretty much
Judging from your comment you've never been on the weird side of UA-cam.
@@WorldOfDeepThought this comment is 7yrs old
do u ever feel
like a plastic bag
flowing through the wind
wanting to start again?
yes indeed
Cause baby you’re a plasticcc baggg
Absolutely brilliantly creativity.
I really felt for the bag, we must our utmost to help them.

This is truly touching and I have even watched this at my school thanks 🙏🏻
What a great way to make people aware of what really happens with a plastic bag!
Very well done indeed!
What I like the most about this video is that it not just the usual kind of movies we got used to. It is more about art rather than social appeal. Definitely, love it! The idea is brilliant.
bruh the dog could have died with his head in the plastic bag-
Wow! This was AMAZING! And it teaches people without lecturing! I learned & laughed & I feel inspired. Thank you!
This is easily my favourite video on UA-cam.
yes i agree
Probably the most moving and educational documentary I've seen yet...
Well done and informative. I believe this should be a "must-watch" in all grade schools, public and private. The subject is important to all future generations, as are the detrimental destruction of the rainforests and the coral reefs.
i had to watch this at school, all the kids in class were trying not to burst out laughing.
+Camille Regan It is meant to be funny, absurdly funny. Laughing would have been fine as long as you didn't miss the point.
same here
I just had to watch it not in school but at home in classroom
This is way awesome dude! Promotes awareness to the population... Keep making more!
"literally dozens of animals" was *chef's kiss*
The closing title should include, "No plastic bags were harmed in the making of this film."
1:26 It takes a lot a guts to say that with a straight face and monochromatic voice.
i watched this in school to talk about eco-friendly stuff or something like that and when it ended there was this one student who said "so wait. the plastic bags have thoughts and feelings?" or something like that and i and the rest of the class thought how stupid that was.even the teacher told her that it's not real. she wasn't asking as a joke either. she was genuinely THAT stupid!!😂😂😂
Love this - so well done and informative. Plus it's pretty darn entertaining, because it's true
This is the best documentary ever made
Very well done documentary. Love Jeremy's narration and the message.
LOL! So halarious! My science lab teacher showed my class this and we laughed our heads off! :D
Gabriella and Makayla Eldridge same
i like how they recorded it flowing and them not getting the plastic
Absolutely phenomonal
Last month the group came to my school and talked about it. Best guest speaker ever.
So rare... I hope I can spot one before I die! They look so majestic!
Great video! Success is in the bag ;)

Are you dumb, stupid or dumb?
2:20 "Home to literally dozens of animals!" LOL
Is it just me ho saw this comment just at 2:20
Im watching this in my english lesson in 2021 lmao
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever watched.
Watched this for my environmental politics class. It's both hilarious but also very brooding simultaneously. Definitely a powerful message!
"Home to literally *DOZENS* of animals "
"...the yorkie's talons..."
My teacher at the end said " it's horrendous" lol
This is a great idea. It really shows the story about the bags.. We should really work on fixing the problems in the garbage patch..
In my area in NY state they are still everywhere but at least often be reused and returned to the markets for recycle. This video is a great message, fun, and very well done. There's hope for the future yet!
so beautiful. i cried.
Plastic bags are clever creatures...
We must outsmart them.
“The most Lustrious creatures...The plastic bag.”
I almost Freaking died of laughter when it said that 😂
How can almost 100 people not like this? I sincerely hope they mean the theme, and not the message or the video.
props to the camerman for flying
We had to watch this at school me and my frenid lafte like hell in lunch
This music is amazing. Somebody know the name of it?

I watched this in school I couldn't stop laughing its so weird and random but good job making this
This was awesome!
Now I wanna make a mockumentary for a class project XD
Very powerful 😢

That was extremely well done. And we need to use reusable bags, not plastic ones.
