Sam is one of those “villains” that you’re not scared of, you’re just sitting on the edge of your seat waiting to see what he’ll do next. His calm non emotional demeanor is something I live for in villains
I feel like he’s still remaining in the Lawful Neutral alinement since he’s only doing that to achieve his goal of protecting the prison and keeping dream in there. He gave Ponk many chances to hand over the books but he refused and kept fighting back so he had to be more drastic.
People saying Sam has become a villain after this, but it’s completely in character. We know how seriously he takes the prison, and this kind of thing is definitely something he’d do. I’m really excited to see what they do with his story, cuz Sam himself has said there’s some interesting things coming soon
Absolutely!! He's strict with the rules and he wants to make sure nobody messes with him nor the prison. I'm so looking forward to what's gonna happen with his character.
just because it's something that his character would do....that doesn't make it morally okay. He def isn't a good guy, tourcher no matter how you look at it is messed up, so ppl calling him a villian is pretty justified especially with keys that don't work anymore in the first place. seems more like an excuse to hurt, prision is def messing him up i think.
The detail of Ponk taking off his mask to show how serious he was, only for it to regenerate when he respawns is quite clever. The cleverness comes from how since Sam isn't shown doing so, the character's stoicism contrasts even more with Ponk's pleading and how the two characters are no longer on the same side of this issue. (The issue of Sam having changed after being the warden.) The white-on-black outlines at the end also helped demonstrate the shock of Sam's actions and was an additional cool detail. Great job!
Ponk doesn't understand... The prison isn't turning him into this... He's been this since its creation. The fact that the prison exists at all is proof he doesn't screw around. All the security measures, the contracts, the lockdowns... He doesn't take chances. When Sam is at the prison, he isn't Awsamdude. He's the Warden of Pandora's Vault. And the Warden is not someone to screw with.
@@pissum420 Wait which one? Sam or Ponk? Because Sam still has empathy, he's just terrified that someone else is gonna die on his watch so he's retreated into his work, taking it more seriously than ever. He hasn't lost empathy, he was devastated when Tommy died. You might as well say the egg took Tubbo's empathy because his only reaction to Tommy's death was "that sucks"
In fact Sam is always very serious when it come to people visiting the prison and the only time Sam dose not act extra aggressive towards people is if they would consistently go the the prison remember when ranboo in his ender walk stage alway when to visit dream so often it became normal for Sam to see him so he all ready knew ender walk ranboo knew the drill
To be honest, at least Sam asked which arm Ponk used more and took the one that didn't do much because he could've been greatly effected if his right one got chopped off. Awesome vid btw!!! I loved how you made Sam look so heartless and cold!!!! Really epic!!!!
Plot twist Ponk lied cause he thought sam would take his dominant arm but instead sam was going to let him keep the dominant arm leading to ponk's dominant arm (left) being severed
Good fucking GOD, that was amazing. The lava singeing Ponk's shoes and feet, the desperation in his movements, and I was literally NOT expecting him to take off his mask, which was such an amazing touch. And then Sam's stone-cold movements going along with his tone, and just the intensity of him pinning down Ponk and just slicing off his arm like THAT. This is such a tense scene and you portrayed it so well! Also the Kung-Fu Panda music. Perfection for our boy Ponk. EDIT: WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE KUNG FU PANDA MUSIC WAS PART OF THE ORIGINAL SCENE- JFJF
I KNOW MAN! I was thinking the same fucking thing! GOD! The parts of the audio that were used are perfect! And when he interrupted himself by going "mmm" because the lava hurt He kinda curled in on himself And the emotion on his maskless face! I loved it!
My favorite character finally gets animations and there ether being tortured or there being struck by lightning. I wish ponk would do more note worthy things to be animated.
I wouldn't say the power has gone to his head. He has a duty to fulfill (defend the prison and keep Dream inside), which he takes very, very seriously to a fault. I think that's his problem.
Same, powerful man, but I don't think he's power hungry. I think he's scared of another incident like Tommy's death from happening again--scared of failing his job at keeping Dream in check. After all, Sam was blamed for Tommy's death even though Dream was the one to kill. I don't excuse Sam's behavior, but I can see that he's breaking under the pressure.
He hasn't yet but I feel like if he keeps going on this path he may end up being power hungry like dream. Ponk is right in that the prison is changing Sam as well as saying the egg has changed ponk I can understand Sam hunting ponk down as he is refusing to hand over the books even though they are completely useless. Torturing him though is going too far and since ponk refused to give the books Sam should have just kept him in one of the holding cells in the prison or something and would stay there till he handed over the books.
In order to protect Tommy and the people he loves, Sam has to fully become the Warden in order to make sure that Dream hurts no one ever again, whatever the cost. That means his friendship with Ponk, which was one of the purest friendships on the server.
@@Book_Thoughts What if he starts using the wardens in the prison for torture or something. I'd give him anything he wanted if he threatened to put me in a room with one of those things jesus
DAYUM You really portrayed the emotions of the characters in this scene so well Ponk's absolute fear and terror coupled with slight sass Rivalled by Sam's stone-cold blank-faced nature _It's so damn good holy shit-_
Dude!! Sam is quickly becoming one of my favorite characters in this SMP. Like how he gets so serious and is willing to do whatever it takes to keep Dream in the prison is just astounding. He is truly dedicated and terrifying at the same time.
i 100% agree but the fact that he said that if dream gave him the option of him killing tommy or sam letting him out, he would let him out. sam would do anything to keep dream in the prison unless it meant letting someone die, which is probably why he didn’t kill ponk
AHHHH THIS BROKE MY HEART WATCHING THIS BUT ALSO SAMEEEE. I also thought that this would make me hate Sam but honestly it really didn't. If anything this shows how bad Tommy's death messed him up, to a point where he feels like he can't make those same mistakes again, even if it means becoming the bad guy to keep Dream in jail.
Didn't Ponk try to ask Sam to be his valentine by building a literal train track and tunnel but, Sam got mad at him for stealing his trident so instead, Ponk just demolished everything?
well actually he didn't demolish it, he wanted to but then Sam came back at the last moment and told Ponk he forgave him and let him keep the trident, and when Ponk showed him the woo station and asked him to be his valentine he said yes which at least made a happy ending :')

I don't think he's necessarily a bad guy, he's just very strict with the rules and doesn't want anybody messing with the prison. He's definitely crossed a line with what he's done, but I think he's doing the wrong things for the right reasons. And thank you!
@@amber-kf3nc "When the world gets bad enough, the good go crazy. But the smart go bad." It's not directly applicable in the second part but I mean it applies so much to the SMP. Wilbur went insane, Dream went bad, Phil was pretty close to crazy, Ranboo is going insane, Techno definitely started slipping out of the moral high ground around when he started fighting for revenge instead of freedom, so he might go bad. Sam's just blurring the lines between good bad and crazy, and literally everything to do with the egg is insane
Sam Is getting to bee one of the coolest/scarier and one of the Goofyest at the same time In the first category he is second only to dream and techno, while in the second he is second to Mexican dream
When Ponk just said "This isn't the Sam I know" I had instant flashbacks of that one old stream where Sam said "Bye Ponky!" then when Sam logged off, Ponk was like "bRuh dIS sAM kID alWAys HaS hIS wAys WiTh mEH"
"Bye Sam, I'll talk to you later okay," "Alright, I Love You" "Okay........Love you too, Bye" "There it is, Bye Ponkie" "Bruh, he's always got a way to my heart that Sam-kid, My goodness"
I thinks reason Sam was so willing to do this to ponk is because he’s in the egg cult, and the egg cult tried and is still trying to kill tommy, so he’s doing this as some sort of fucked apology to tommy for letting him die
Thank you so much! I don't think Sam would necessarily go through a villain arc, but more of a 'too strict' arc where he sees everybody as a potential threat. Like, he's doing the wrong things for the right reasons and going too far.
nah, just a very dark neutral character, or an anti-hero of sorts, he does awful things to stop worse things from happening, I genuinely couldn't see Sam having a villain arc unless he got _seriously_ fucked up by someone, and even then I think he'd just go numb, he's already kinda disassociative what with harming Ponk so mindlessly the thing with Sam is that he's selfless (or thinks he is/tries to be) and does nasty shit for the better good of others; he saw Ponk as a threat to others' safety because he thought he would let Dream out, it goes to a fault where he's hyperfocused on the harm Dream could do if he was let out that he doesn't notice the harm he himself is doing to protect the members of the SMP-- at one point or another someone's gonna point it out to him and he'll actually listen, then the harm he's caused will catch up to him mentally and he'll probably break down, I'm willing to bet
This really cemented for me how horrible this must have been! Like Ponk just dying over and over again with Sam only talking to him in a monotone voice, both being corrupted by different things
I absolutely love sams character. he is pure lawful (though im not sure if good or neutral). he prioritizes the prison over everything, to an unhealthy extent. Sam isn’t having a villain arc. this is completely in character. he has always been willing to do whatever it takes to stop dream from ever getting out.
HOLY CRAP, THIS IS AMAZING. You got me jumping in my seat! Also, the expressions??? The way you could portray them so well even when Ponk has his mask on??? Amazing.
My feelings during this: I’m not crying This is hurting me Oh my god this smp is too much for my heart Kill me now Holy crap Help I’m dying Sam is breaking my heart Ponk is making me cry *heavy breathing* *exhale* I need to quit watching animators and the smp it’s making go through too much
@@Grimmijaggers EVIL XD you used your powers for good and evil at the same time no idea how that it was possible but thanks for the ruining of my emotions
AAA?? I love the way you’ve somehow made the build up even more tense and horrifying than the stream. The way he just casually yoinks Ponk’s arm out before slicing it off was a 0-100 moment that had me covering my mouth. Excellent job!
Yoooohohohoo!! I love iiit! The way you can just clearly handle the expressions and pain that they go through is amazing and your tendency to go above and beyond with "after credit" scenes with audio you need to fetch for is so awesome. This was so creepy to watch and I loved it!
Your long animatics are always so good! I love how you drew Ponk getting burned by the lava, the dark smoke makes it looks so much more intense. And how he took off his mask and then had it back on when he respawned. The audio editing where his sound is behind the glass is also really a good touch! It was so brutal at the end, where he just asked what arm he uses the most, and just grabs his left one and cuts it off. Amazing work!
Thank you so much, I'm so glad you like it! The audio editing you mentioned is actually done by UA-cam to avoid a copyright claim X'D wish I could take credit for it being a clever move haha
holy shit i love this, it's literally incredible Also i love sam more just because of this LIKE THIS IS AMAZING Also when he cut off his arm THAT WAS SO SMOOTH
**me ignoring the Ponk notifications but popping in to chill sometimes because Ponk is such a vibe and never changes** **Me deciding to join for the first time in 1-2 weeks** The stream:
Even though Ponk has been corrupted by the egg and is supposed to be strong and everything you can hear he is genuinely scared and I’d say absolutely terrified of death and even worse his hand
Broooo this is so good it creeps me out. Sam can be scary af. At least he had the respect to ask which arm he use more, his right, and cut off the left instead.... But still..... Goodness gracious.....
Sam is an anti-hero. One of the "villains" that isn't bad for no reason. Sam is a villain for the sake of the server, same thing with Techno and the Syndicate, and Tommy. For the future safety of the entire community, they do bad things that makes everyone hate them.

Wilbur went insane, Dream went bad, Phil was pretty close to crazy, Ranboo is going insane, Techno definitely started slipping out of the moral high ground around when he started fighting for revenge instead of freedom, so he might go bad. Sam's just blurring the lines between good bad and crazy, and literally everything to do with the egg is insane
imo c!sam is a perfect example of how power corrupts people
"the prison is not a joke"
Drista with creative mode:
Lol
Sam Is getting to bee one of the coolest/scarier and one of the Goofyest at the same time
In the first category he is second only to dream and techno, while in the second he is second to Mexican dream
I freaking adore Sam with all my heart
When Ponk just said "This isn't the Sam I know"
I had instant flashbacks of that one old stream where Sam said "Bye Ponky!" then when Sam logged off, Ponk was like "bRuh dIS sAM kID alWAys HaS hIS wAys WiTh mEH"
its so sad like ahhh
@@Grimmijaggers ikr ;-;
also dang this was amazing. i love ur art style lol
Thanks!
@@Grimmijaggers Ofc! You deserve the praise!^^
"Bye Sam, I'll talk to you later okay,"
"Alright, I Love You"
"Okay........Love you too, Bye"
"There it is, Bye Ponkie"
"Bruh, he's always got a way to my heart that Sam-kid, My goodness"
the pain just gets worse
STOP YOURE MAKING ME CRY
Hmm...
stop making me cry
Ponk: “Sam it hurts!”
Ghostbur“Phil…it hurts”
Same lines different energy
Ponk: *flirts*
Sam: *”ah, so you’ve chosen death”*
_"There is nothing you could do to me"_
Sam : *Well it looks like your free left arm trial has expired*
Sam,when they say "may I take your hand in marrige" THEY DON'T MEAN TAKING THEIR HAND
HAJAJAHHAJA
I thinks reason Sam was so willing to do this to ponk is because he’s in the egg cult, and the egg cult tried and is still trying to kill tommy, so he’s doing this as some sort of fucked apology to tommy for letting him die
That's definitely part of the reasoning behind his actions for sure.
@@Grimmijaggers yep
HOLY *FUCK* THIS IS GOOD!!! I REALLY hope Sam is going to have a villain arc, I feel like that'd get VERY interesting....
Thank you so much!
I don't think Sam would necessarily go through a villain arc, but more of a 'too strict' arc where he sees everybody as a potential threat. Like, he's doing the wrong things for the right reasons and going too far.
@@Grimmijaggers Hmm, true true.. That would be more proberbal
nah, just a very dark neutral character, or an anti-hero of sorts, he does awful things to stop worse things from happening, I genuinely couldn't see Sam having a villain arc unless he got _seriously_ fucked up by someone, and even then I think he'd just go numb, he's already kinda disassociative what with harming Ponk so mindlessly
the thing with Sam is that he's selfless (or thinks he is/tries to be) and does nasty shit for the better good of others; he saw Ponk as a threat to others' safety because he thought he would let Dream out, it goes to a fault where he's hyperfocused on the harm Dream could do if he was let out that he doesn't notice the harm he himself is doing to protect the members of the SMP-- at one point or another someone's gonna point it out to him and he'll actually listen, then the harm he's caused will catch up to him mentally and he'll probably break down, I'm willing to bet
@@Grimmijaggers yes! exactly that, idk how people always manage to say things so nice and concise I end up writing an essay every time lmaoo
I like reading the essays, they're interesting!
I'm just used to summarizing all my points simply since i often have to repeat myself lmao X'D
Ponk: t-that's my arm..
Sam: yeah, you have another one
I LOVE HOW YOU DID THAT PART
Glad you like it!!
This really cemented for me how horrible this must have been! Like Ponk just dying over and over again with Sam only talking to him in a monotone voice, both being corrupted by different things
I love them
Every time I see an animatic with sam I just appreciate more how much of a glorious, stoic bastard he is. I love this man
Same he's so good
Yo that was really cool, I was hoping somebody would animate that scene
Thank you!
"That's my arm!"
"Yeah, you have another one."
“The prison has taken over your mind, Sam!”
~Ponk, the guy who’s mind is taken over by a damn egg.
I love how you did the audio, especially because of Ponk's music choices...
The cutting of Ponk's arm is done so well too.
Thank you!!
and the fact that they were each others valentines i can’t believe these are the same people-
i get whiplash from dsmp relationships like geez
The way Ponk said "a lot of people wants Dream out" just making Sam more suspicious to Ponk and abuse the keycards for Dream
Who wants Dream out? Who is he referring to?
I absolutely love sams character. he is pure lawful (though im not sure if good or neutral). he prioritizes the prison over everything, to an unhealthy extent. Sam isn’t having a villain arc. this is completely in character. he has always been willing to do whatever it takes to stop dream from ever getting out.
I also adore Sam, for the same reason
Not gonna lie, this makes me like Sam more for some reason. It just adds something to his character and I'm here for it
Bruh same
“You have another one”
the way he just nonchalantly says it-
That trident through the chest looked so brutal
Loved it
"so why use left one, huh?" just Sam saying that made me scared 😅
This just reminded me how underrated Ponk is
he really
very true.
HOLY CRAP, THIS IS AMAZING. You got me jumping in my seat! Also, the expressions??? The way you could portray them so well even when Ponk has his mask on??? Amazing.
Ahhh thank you so much!! :D
Yknow ponk isn't as much of a bad actor as everyone says he is and you really brought the scene to life
Thank you!
My feelings during this:
I’m not crying
This is hurting me
Oh my god this smp is too much for my heart
Kill me now
Holy crap
Help I’m dying
Sam is breaking my heart
Ponk is making me cry
*heavy breathing*
*exhale*
I need to quit watching animators and the smp it’s making go through too much
A true rollercoaster of emotions
*as it should be >:D*
@@Grimmijaggers EVIL XD you used your powers for good and evil at the same time no idea how that it was possible but thanks for the ruining of my emotions
I ruined my own emotions doing this so I must spread the pain haha
@@Grimmijaggers misery loves company lol
Ah yes the emotions of the average dream smp viewer.
ponk: Will you take my hand in marriage?
sam: And i took that literally.
LOL
AAA?? I love the way you’ve somehow made the build up even more tense and horrifying than the stream. The way he just casually yoinks Ponk’s arm out before slicing it off was a 0-100 moment that had me covering my mouth. Excellent job!
*Yoink*
Thank you so much :D
Yoooohohohoo!! I love iiit! The way you can just clearly handle the expressions and pain that they go through is amazing and your tendency to go above and beyond with "after credit" scenes with audio you need to fetch for is so awesome. This was so creepy to watch and I loved it!
Ahhhhhhh thank you so much ;; I'm so glad you liked it!!
Your long animatics are always so good! I love how you drew Ponk getting burned by the lava, the dark smoke makes it looks so much more intense. And how he took off his mask and then had it back on when he respawned. The audio editing where his sound is behind the glass is also really a good touch! It was so brutal at the end, where he just asked what arm he uses the most, and just grabs his left one and cuts it off. Amazing work!
Thank you so much, I'm so glad you like it!
The audio editing you mentioned is actually done by UA-cam to avoid a copyright claim X'D wish I could take credit for it being a clever move haha
Ah, amazing, as always. Honestly, I agree: this scene makes me so sad for Sam and how horribly Tommy's death affected him.
Thank you!
And same, same
holy shit i love this, it's literally incredible
Also i love sam more just because of this LIKE THIS IS AMAZING
Also when he cut off his arm THAT WAS SO SMOOTH
Thank you so much!
I actually tried animating that part and I wanted to cry-
@@Grimmijaggers Aw, it's okay, also thank you! It was amazing
Ponk is not lying. He's changed ever since he became a prison warden.
yup
That slicing sound *chefs kiss* fucking love how dark this shit can get
Glad you liked it! I had to go through a lot of sound effects to find the perfect one haha
@@Grimmijaggers all of your sound effects actually are quite perfect you're very good at what you do
"Getting to spend time with you ain't that bad-"
Ouch- lol
I love the fact that sam litterly has a high security prison but he decides to make a cell outside
He doesn't want to keep Ponk locked up forever, just for the time being.
Sam is one of those people that can be either really sweet or very scary in the matter of minutes
and I love it
YO THE ENDING WAS SO GOOODDD LIKE IT WAS SCARY BUT JN A REALLLY GOOD WAY
Thank you!!!
i found your animatics the other day and i've already watched a lot of them lmao. i adore your portrayal of Sam and how terrifying you make him. :}
thank you so much :D
ohhhhh this is gorgeous! sam's monotony versus ponk's desperation and frantic talking, its very nice! My compliments!
Thank youuuuu!
why are the torture arcs always my favourite-
because angst is fun
@@Grimmijaggers honestly.... yeah
“Yeah you have another one” is far funnier in this context than it should be😂😂
I love sam, I love your animatics, and I love watching peoples arms getting cut off (I would say jk, but-welp) this is my new favorite animatic.
ahhh thank you so much!!
**me ignoring the Ponk notifications but popping in to chill sometimes because Ponk is such a vibe and never changes**
**Me deciding to join for the first time in 1-2 weeks**
The stream:
sam: hey dream! you gonna get ponk hand for dinner
dream: finally, something more *C r u n c h y* than a damn potato
Holy....fuck, Sam's going full on dark side and I love it
The music actually adds something, makes it all the more menacing
ponk has taste
Even though Ponk has been corrupted by the egg and is supposed to be strong and everything you can hear he is genuinely scared and I’d say absolutely terrified of death and even worse his hand
ok this is great but at 3:18 a random tab started playing on my laptop and i just hear "HELLO EVEYBODY MY NAME IS MARKIPLIER" and I cried
lmaooooo
we stan markiplier
@@Grimmijaggers he is a great man
Wooow that was awesome! I loved the part where Ponk and Sam had their hands on the glass together! That was so amazing!
Thank you! Glad you liked that ;>
Broooo this is so good it creeps me out. Sam can be scary af. At least he had the respect to ask which arm he use more, his right, and cut off the left instead.... But still..... Goodness gracious.....
Thank you!
Each one of these videos is making me want to get invested in the lore. Such a good Lawful Neutral character there. Holy shit.
I adore Sam with all my heart
saving this so I watch it when it premires! hyped!
"THE PRISON IS TAKING OVER YOUR MIND!"
Says man literally under mind control by an oversized Easter egg.
1:30 Ponk still loves Sam even though he’s torturing him :(
Sam is an anti-hero. One of the "villains" that isn't bad for no reason. Sam is a villain for the sake of the server, same thing with Techno and the Syndicate, and Tommy. For the future safety of the entire community, they do bad things that makes everyone hate them.
HOLY SHIT this is incredible. a 5 minute long animatic ??? i have so much respect for you o7 o7
aw thank you!
Thank you so so much for making this video, it was the first Dream SMP related video I ever watched, and this introduced me to the Dream SMP (exactly 3 months ago today, actually).
The dream SMP got me through some chaotic times, so thank you again.
Im both sorry and you're welcome XD
The evolution of Sam as a character is just amazing
It really is, I love him
