Hah - in a way there's truth to your statement. The wonderfully talented Robin Bud was lead animator on Mok and one of the better paid people on the team as I remember. Worth every penny IMHO!
@@cute.homunculus ive lived in british Columbia my entire life and can confirm candians have the most inebetween American and British accents ever.

Its the one that people go to first when trying to do a stereotyped canadian accent....which is fair because the more you travel across Canadian the more British it gets. Oh wait then theres Quebec but the rest of Canadian doesn't like talking about it haha.
@@jazzminforrestall406Assuming we have similar checkboxes, I'm going to say the same sort of things that make The Goblin King from Labyrinth attractive
You're close. Mick Jagger was initially supposed to do Mok. He bowed out after releasing his solo album. There was talk of Bowie coming on board but then his "Scary Monsters" album took off and he bowed out.
@@commandertorres Iggy Pop does Mok's big finale song at the end of the film. Lou Reed does the "My Name is Mok" song. The thing is, Mok is a fake and only uses the British accent at the beginning to accentuate his phoniness. It's misleading but that's the point.
He's not, though. He's just using her in order to open a gateway to hell which will unleash a giant demon to destroy the world. It...made sense in the movie.
Imagine everyone who went to see Powerline's gig was actually at Mok's gig, and either cheering at him or staring at pink balls. I don't think he would have the same reaction towards Goofy and Max going onstage.
"I'm Mok." You mean "I'm obviously the villain of this whole movie." I love it when characters come in and their appearance literally screams that they are the bad guy XD
Dizzy was the MVP, no doubt. Smart, skilled, and - the most impressive feat - got Omar to pull his head out of his ass long enough to go help Angel in the end.
better twist/alteration: Mok isn't really Mok. Mok is really the demon from the finale. during a first attempt to with trying to summon the demon, without finding "a special voice". the real "Mok" failed and the spirit of the demon possessed his body while the demon's body was sent back to the other dimension. so for the past few years Mok has been trying to properly open the portal to the other dimension so that he could re summon his body and become one with it again and wreck havoc on the world. also his entrance here and all that fancy stage magic/illusions he uses? it isn't technology, it's Mok's demonic powers, he just says it's all lights and effects. Also Mok isn't a stage name, it's the name of the Demon
I've been saying that for a while. Or at least making him more sympathetic. I'd like to see more on his life and about him with his drug issues and so on.
It’d be funny if the gave them the Edison Balls not so he could more easily kidnap Angel, but just so he could shut them up while actually having a pleasant stroll with her.
Your wonderings are correct. Mok was indeed based on Mik who was originally going to do the Mok music as well. Then he went out on his solo tour and dropped out. Next up was to be David Bowie, but he backed out once his "Scary Monsters" album took off. We went with Lou Reed for the music and Don Francs for the voice - which was an excellent pairing - but the character design was so far along by that point (and working great) that the Mik look stuck.
I think my favorite part in all of this is after Omar disses Mok's album and you can just see how furious he is while hiding it behind laughter. Just brilliantly done on the part of both the actor and the animators.
I showed this movie to my parents last night... After my mother geeked out over the "old-school animation" and familiar musician names, she jokingly compared me to Mok because I apparently summoned this movie from my parents' childhood like he summoned that demon.
Rock & Rule was used photocopy machines for the "inking." That means that the pencil lines drawn by the animators are what is on the screen, not ink lines traced over them by another artist as was usually the case.
@chelsealindsay4821 Thanks for bringing this up. I just checked and you are correct according to Smithonian Magazine article. R&R was the first time I ran into it.
It’s called Rock and Rule! It’s a wild ride if you decide to check it out. It’s by a Canadian animation studio who was trying to make a really well done adult animation project. It’s features lots of famous 80s rock singers and it’s like a dystopian musical of sorts. It may not be the best movie ever but I personally love it for it’s campiness haha
"So let me get this straight... He MANIFESTED from pure electricity, then the FIRST THING he does is offer everybody a beer without flinching?" Yes. "Are you SURE he was evil?"
I think some of Tzekel-kan's (The Road to El Dorado) style and gesture was inspired by Mok, the way he speaks and gesticulate looks totally the same to me
Mok had always been such an interesting character for me. Honestly genius character design aswell I don’t think any character design can come close to being ugly and disturbing yet so hypnotic and attractive all in one. Like you can’t not look at him when he’s on screen. He’s such a confusing enigma and it makes it so interesting.
I honestly think he is the hero of this whole movie. He was literally the only one who was like, "Hey, Mok kidnapped our bandmate and friend, let's go rescue her!" And meanwhile, OMAR, her BOYFRIEND, is just whining with insecurity about how Angel just WANTS to be up there with Mok, and abandoned them. No trust really, till the very end. Meanwhile, every time they get thrown back, Dizzy gets back up and tries again, drives a hovercar into a SERIOUS security door at the end... *sigh* I love this movie enough to understand what's wrong with it lol...
I mean I really can't disagree. It's such a great entrance because you KNOW he's sketchy as fuck but you can believe how some of the others would trust him more easily and be awed by him. There's so much communication in his mannerisms as well, he's such an expressive character and he's a JOY to watch in motion! Plus the voice casting for both speech and singing were perfection. Definitely one of my favorite villain intros and certainly one of the best. Lots of "show don't tell" on display.
I feel really dumb because I just realized, like 3 hours ago... Mok Swagger with big lips, an aging rock star...Mick Jagger with his big lips & aging...you see where this is going.
all of the characters in this movie are nightmare fuel. it’s no wonder it was a flop. of course that means that hipsters need to think it’s “under appreciated” when it’s really just kinda bad. the story is boring, and the acting is subpar at its best.
Notice how Mok says "let's talk about you" then proceeds to talk about his own album. A hint of his true motivation and what's all this about. Plus he must have been surely holding back when Omar made fun of it.
Showing up in this flashy fashion and offering beer? he would have seem like a pretty chill dude if he didn't becomes so obviously evil, but that has its own charm doesn't it?
I like the way old recordings sound, there’s something warm and fuzzy about them, Angela voice especially is so nice to listen to with the way the audio sounds so retro
I adore the attention to detail with his different fashion styles in the movie so much. I noticed it's mostly uncommon to see characters in animation switch up their clothing once in a while, with Totally Spies as one of the exceptions coming off the top of my head. So to see Mok in different outfits even if it's only for a few seconds of screentime is delightful. If I was better articulated and knew the right words to say, I might have even made a video essay analyzing Mok's outfits. But alas, I'll just stick to ogling and being in awe of this flamboyant and very terrifying villain. (Also Dizzy supremacy)
"Oh, you're a villain alright. There's just nothing super about you!" "Oh yeah? What's the difference?" Ten seconds and 25% of the annimation budget later... "Presentation!"

I wish to attain the level of flamboyant where I arrive in a shower of sparks and electricity where my skeleton is visible, only to materialize and casually ask if anyone wants a beer
I like how the villain, for as far as the movie goes out of its way to tell you is evil...is still several times more likeable and charismatic than the lead
Let's give the animators credit. Mok had one of the wildest villain intros of all time. Dude gave off all that creepiness you expect a truly mental villain to have!
I can’t get the imagery of this movie out my mind. It’s got that Rats Of Nimh grittiness to it and unique non-Disney hand drawn animation we don’t see anymore. It probably deserves the reception it got but I want to watch it
Alright that was a badass entrance. A powerful arrival, and perfectly displayed a menacing and flamboyant demeanor. As well as his contempt for the protagonaist all under 2 minutes
"Mes assistants stupides" love this kind of villains, posh, charismatic, filled with finesse and pizzaz, but ultimetly a murderers, beasts and frauds underneath
0:12 "I'm sorry... _dog breath (penis nose)"_ I believe the original Canadian voice actor said the edited comment on the original cut. and I love how Toad whips out those sunglasses as soon as Mok zaps in.
I have a copy of the film taped off CBC during the early 90s and the dialog is exactly what is on this clip. It's a bad joke about the shlepper brothers being dogs whereas Omar etc. are rats. There may have been multiple dialog takes done during the audio sessions - as is usually the case - but I've never heard those words on anything final. I did the layouts for this (working from the storyboards) and don't concur with this myth that's grown up around this line of dialog.
Yeah. There's a lot of things they did wrong with the writing, but Omar's character is hands down the biggest one. No one really has an arc in the film, even Angel doesn't really change at all from the beginning to the end. Nobody learns anything, except maybe Omar and Zip, the former happens instantaneous and off screen, and the latter winds up dead.
Just discovered this movie the other day and I'm absolutely enthralled, Mok's such a terribly fun villain to watch! Was any concept art ever released for him? Would love to see his various costumes and changes throughout production.
Verne, I found out my story professor Kieth Ingham did the visual effects for this scene, so I wanted to give it another look! He told me all about the slit-screening process involved in creating some of the scenes and it was very fascinating. Rock & Rule is a huge inspiration to me as someone working on an experimental animated short film! - Wasan
Nice. He creating the imagery using then state-of-the-art optical visual effects like slit-scans, coloured gels and etc. The actual animation going on here is quite minimal.
I would give everything to see this remade and even more to be able to work on that remake. Love love love the art direction in this movie and feel like it had SO much untapped potential in every way.

Am I the only one around here that thinks the animators blew a portion of the budget from animating Mok's lips?
Hah - in a way there's truth to your statement. The wonderfully talented Robin Bud was lead animator on Mok and one of the better paid people on the team as I remember. Worth every penny IMHO!
On a $10 million budget?

Leonard Kirke Well the voice actor is from British Columbia. Idk that might have something to do with it
That's the wonderful thing about Canadian accents. Sounds half-british, except when it's not.

Oh wait then theres Quebec but the rest of Canadian doesn't like talking about it haha.
And how much lighter pitch it was, then gets all dark and menacing. Funny giving he sounded nicest when offering a beer.
His lips are running away from his face. Boi, get control of those things.
I laughed way harder at this than I should have
He was supposed to be dubbed by mick jagger so that explains a lot lol
STOOOOOOP I JUST HAD SURGERY ON MY ASSHOLE AND IT HURTS TO READ THESE COMMENTS 😭😭😭😭😭😭
You're presuming he's wearing his lips -- as opposed to the lips wearing *him.* 😆
When he said "anyone want a beer?" I thought he was David Bowie for a second.
Same!
I know right!
Heard somewhere that his design was based on a combination of David Bowie and Mick Jagger.
Victor M Same! That was my first thought exactly. 😂 I had to listen for a bit just to be sure that it wasn’t him.

He's not, though. He's just using her in order to open a gateway to hell which will unleash a giant demon to destroy the world.

That and the nonchalant "anybody want a beer?" Like damn, we just met and ya treating us in your own home.

I don't remember this part of the Goofy Movie...
Imagine if Mok actually was in a Goofy movie.
Imagine how terrifying that would be; the only one not wearing gloves.
Was looking for this comment
It's like a grotesque goofy movie lol
Goofy already used an Edison Ball before he had his own movie.

0:12 "I'm sorry... _dog breath (penis nose)"_
I believe the original Canadian voice actor said the edited comment on the original cut.
and I love how Toad whips out those sunglasses as soon as Mok zaps in.
I have a copy of the film taped off CBC during the early 90s and the dialog is exactly what is on this clip. It's a bad joke about the shlepper brothers being dogs whereas Omar etc. are rats. There may have been multiple dialog takes done during the audio sessions - as is usually the case - but I've never heard those words on anything final. I did the layouts for this (working from the storyboards) and don't concur with this myth that's grown up around this line of dialog.
watching this at .25 speed to get every frame into my brain. Some of them are so great! Mok's face is rubber haha
Have never seen this movie but damn he is an awesome villain!
"Enough about THEM let´s talk about YOU. What did you think of MY last album" what a charmer -_-
My fave line in the whole film.
is it too bad that i kinds have a crush on Mok now? he is old and creepy but on a villainy charming way
2:30 *can’t wait to see that in my nightmares*
The birth of *"And I oop!"* at 2:36
Interesting film but holy shit they could've made omar more likable.
Yeah. There's a lot of things they did wrong with the writing, but Omar's character is hands down the biggest one. No one really has an arc in the film, even Angel doesn't really change at all from the beginning to the end. Nobody learns anything, except maybe Omar and Zip, the former happens instantaneous and off screen, and the latter winds up dead.
Or just plain taken him out of the movie entirely!
Angel should’ve been a lesbian.
His face is like a lava lamp, and just can't stop watching.
This is the first I've ever heard or seen of this thing and I love it but I also hate it
I'm so glad everyone agrees that he sounded like David Bowie at first.
1:43 love that laugh AND that guitar riff
Never seen or heard of this before.
Fantastic animation.
Great mix of subtlety and exaggeration.
1:35 if I was a supervillain I'd laugh like that myself
Just discovered this movie the other day and I'm absolutely enthralled, Mok's such a terribly fun villain to watch! Was any concept art ever released for him? Would love to see his various costumes and changes throughout production.
To be fair, I've never seen that movie, but I'm ready to do anything for Mok's voice
I don't know what the hell this movie is, or why in the hell it was in my recommendations, but I really wanna see this in full now.
Sara Schmidt its free
Well did you end up seeing it?
Verne, I found out my story professor Kieth Ingham did the visual effects for this scene, so I wanted to give it another look! He told me all about the slit-screening process involved in creating some of the scenes and it was very fascinating. Rock & Rule is a huge inspiration to me as someone working on an experimental animated short film! - Wasan
Nice. He creating the imagery using then state-of-the-art optical visual effects like slit-scans, coloured gels and etc. The actual animation going on here is quite minimal.
I would give everything to see this remade and even more to be able to work on that remake. Love love love the art direction in this movie and feel like it had SO much untapped potential in every way.
