I can tell that this took a TON of work. Hundreds, maybe thousands of hours, building miniature sets, getting the exposure just right, meticulously positioning every little element of every frame...
All of that... for this.
Yes, eggsasperating!
All that _and_ they had to find a cat, put tape on its paws, then toss it onto a Moog synthesizer to make their soundtrack.
I love how this starts out with just a few puns and then quickly dissolves into "EGG EGG EGG EGG..."
Your comment has an EGGcorn in it (dissolves instead of devolves) :p but everyone's said an eggcorn at some point. I've said my share.
Eggy egg egg egg?

"In my day, eggs were so plentiful we used them to make weirdass stop-motion educational films"

Moral: impolite people only become polite after being dealt severe head injuries
Some people could use some percussive personality maintenance, namely Twitter users.
I think the Kennedys tried that on one of their daughters
@@mikefitzgerald18 Well it did get her to behave.
@@andrewpytko4773 I think it did
That was eggscruciating.
Somebody please put us out of our eggony.
Egg egg egg, eggeggeggegg?
Total Eggony
@@amyelise82 Quit egging on the puns
@@michaelwilson5114 Yes, they are indeed eggregious.
Eggbert always wanted to be a hard-boiled detective but ended up a soft-boiled accountant.
And then some Easter egg hunters found him, and he was poached.
@@petergray7576 holy shit this is advanced
Drdred., Petergray &
nicktaco,
You 3 are the reason I made it through the longest short film of my eggciting life!
You guys Crack me up!

Well, he was shell shocked during the war
@@jenniferbariletti4839 LOL
I hope this is all aliens will ever find after humanity is gone.
This, or a full let's play of Metal Slug 3D
Let's all do our part to make sure it happens before we make our egg-ress from this mortal coil.
😆
You mean eggstraterrestrials.
Ahh the early 70s when everyone thought they were an expert at the moog synth.
Don't you mean eeeeeeggggspert?
@@MrPcfriendly You have won this thread, the internet, and the universe.
Hey, that ferret was doing its best.
Likewise for Stop motion
As a result of "switched on bach" and "yes" no doubt.
I was afraid the brown eggs would have to sit in the back of the bus.
🤕 ouch…that hurt and made me laugh. Racism is so dumb.
Unfortunately, those days weren't too long before this was made.
It's truly staggering to think that people were paid money to make this.
You think that's bad, watch 'The Punctuation Wizard' sometime, and tell me if it's any worse.
Probably just one dork in his basement with a stop motion camera.
Probably not very much, though.
"It's truly staggering to think that people were paid money to make this." _I say the same thing about all the Paranormal Craptivity movies all the time_ .
This company make thousands of these films - all the way to 1994. Good money in industrial and educational films. Still is.
So if anyone wants to steal someone’s identity in this world all they have to do is steal someone’s bow tie?
All you need to be a master of disguise are several pieces of felt and a pair of pinking shears.
So his bow tie was...poached.
I was prepared for this to be weird. I was not prepared for this to heavily feature the same American flag as is seen in the human world. Or the invention of egg-breakdancing.
*breggdancing.
@@CyberKnight1 breakegging
do you think the egg people call break dancing scrambling?
I guess the difference is that they fold the flag wrong.
One Nation Over Easy
The thing is, no matter how simple, any stop motion animation took a lot of tedious work to make happen. This weird dumb egg thing with the tinny voices represents someone's week. Month if you count the set building.
Loved Kevin yelling “HE’S DEAD!!” when Benedict fell down and cracked open. 😂
Benedict's injury left him shell-shocked and he was never laid again.
It IS a shame he ended up such a basket case, his thoughts all scrambled; life can be such a cruel, unfunny yolk. While what he did really took some huevos, he just cracked up and got fried. But, you know what they say, "If you want to make an omelette, you have to break a few-"! 😳
Don’t know why, but when the eggs all get into class, I kind of imagined that this was the egg version of South Park and was searching for a Cartman egg.
"Scramble you guys! I'm goin' home!"
Hahahhahahahaahha
"I'm not fat! I'm big-shelled!"
Eggsquisite Observation 🥚🍳🥚🍳
@@MotownFan1962 "OMG, they cracked Shelly!" _"You_ CHEFS!!" Hmm, no, Chef was a great friend of the kids.
"You short-order fry cooks?" No. Bakers? Naw, still too similar to 'Chef.'
Omelet pan? Quiche tray? Egg-beaters would be too on the nose. Geez, this inventing of Evil Villains isn't as easy as I thought it'd be. Egg snakes? Egg-HEADS!!
Maybe "that's no yolk?" No.
It's Eggs Benedict Cumberbatch's finest role!
Truly a transformative performance. An over easy path to an Oscar for sure.
*chef's kiss* beautiful.
Finest *_roll,_* no?
Wasn't he the break-dancing egg? I'll show myself out.
😂
This will be sure to crack everyone up.
I’ll see myself out.
You're not getting away that easily you stay with the rest of us and suffer
Yolk's on you: the eggzits are just daubed on.
😂
the school nurse succeeded where all the King's horses and all the King's men had failed
I guess in this universe, having the chick hatch from you is the same constant fear that the characters in the Aliens movies have when they know they have an embryo inside them.
So any eggs voiced by John Hurt had better put their affairs in order.
This egg short is an eggcellent eggsample of RiffTrax offering a nice egg in this trying time.
Egg.
Well, technically, the Statue of Liberty is a building shaped like a person.
And London has an Egg building, so the eggs get theirs too.
@@DoctorShocktor I looked that up. It's called the Gherkin. I'd hate to tell you what I think it looks like....
Ah, yes, I too am often late for class because I was aimlessly meandering around the flag pole.
Are state executions done in this parallel universe using an electric egg beater?
Microwave.
Yes, eggsecutions are conducted with eleggtricity.
No, they are thrown on the ground
Nah. They've gotta _fry._
@@shaventalz3092 Good one dude.
Benedict was a jerk all throughout, and he STILL got help, like anyone else.
He didn't learn anything from his behavior! What a joke!
South Park before South Park.
@Dean Franz Don’t you mean “yolk?”
@@kenthuang436 You take my Like and get the hell outta here.
He's also named after an egg dish. It's like naming a kid 'Long Pork.'
Yeah but he owes Egbert now!
Maybe I am just a little cynical these days, but watching this I have the odd feeling that the person who wrote the script for this went on to become a serial killer.
That doesn’t make you cynical, it makes you sensible.
he scrambled a child's brain and thought we wouldn't ask questions. definitely something up there.
We were essentially told to believe a child cracking his skull open is justified karma. You might be onto something there
This is eggxactly what I needed right now. Thanks for all the yolks.
Take your like and go!
OMMFG I remember this short as a kid! We even took a test on it. Thanks to you guys doing this short, I'm still learning an awful lot. "Hatching means Death!"
Took a test on it?! How?!
What kind of questions were on this test?
Don’t you mean an “Eggzam”?
@@DoctorShocktor lol 😆
Eggs-actly! Lol
It was weird! Questions about how Benedict was being a complete and total Bene-DICK, what he should've done, they even had us make dioramas out of drained eggshells.
I am definitely too high for this shit right now
Or maybe not high enough?
Recording from the production meeting for 'Courtesy: A Good Eggsample':
"So, what's our budget for this educational short?"
"Um...eggs, felt, glue, markers, and cardboard."
"You're kidding, right?"
"No, we also get to use the egg carton."
Nope, these projects get real money attached. Industrial and educational films are a good business.
If Classic Doctor Who can splash green paint on bubble wrap and call it a monster, this short can create an egg hellscape out of random swaths of fabric and some eggs.
@@Satellite_Of_Love You gave me the laugh I truly needed today. Thank you.
10:13 Forget it, Kevin. While it has been established that eggs contain cholesterol, it has not yet been proven conclusively that they actually raise the level of serum cholesterol in the human bloodstream.
So one of those Egg Council creeps got to you too, huh?
@@brianmcgauley1804 *squeak squeak squeak* YOU BETTER RUN, EGG!
This and 'The Tiny Astronaut' are perfect eggamples of childhood filler. The type of films that were shown to kill time before being released early for Thanksgiving or Christmas vacation.
Or when it was raining at recess, haha
@@Auryanne Really? My elementary school got literal miles out of a film reel of Disney's Peter and the Wolf. I guess they were afraid of inciting a riot otherwise.
The ending to Tiny Astronaut is perfect:
"I hope you all learned just what the hell lesson this thing was supposed to be teaching. I know I did, The End!"
...oh crap...I remember seeing this with a fever back in the 80s on PBS. I thought I dreamed it!!!
OH MY GOD! When they started doing the brain damaged egg shit, I literally started crying from laughter.....I'm going to hell....
Still more nuanced acting than most of the Coronet and Centron shorts. :P Also, let's appreciate the puckishness of the UA-cam algorithim for interspersing this with ads for menopause treatments. lol
Man, Mike's lyrics for the Eggs Having Fun theme really went dark there 😂
The green egg trees are missing something... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
0:53 That egg is the point where the designers got absolutely fed up. Unable to be bothered to make more egg costumes, they put a glasses cleaning cloth on an egg and called it a hat.
I have never done LSD, but now I know what doing it would feel like.
LSD is not nearly as terrifying.
This would be terrifying on lsd.
Wait till you see some of the stuff Encyclopedia Britannica put out in the late 60s/early 70s. Those are some brown acid experiences.
@@NobodyQuiteLikeMe It always made me find things funny - I'd probably die laughing watching this if I still dropped.
@@michaelwilson5114 see i feel like i would get paranoid and think it was some sort of brainwashing thing
I know this short is silly, but in all seriousness, I think that the set design itself is very creative and charming.
Directed by Ron Underwood who later went on to direct Tremors, City Slickers and Mighty Joe Young.
this early version of "Veggie Tales" was very different
Missed opportunity not to have the egg landscape garnished with Underwood deviled ham.
Rifftrax is spoiling us 😁❤❤❤
I see what you did there
Breakfast will never be the same.
Do you think they are shown safety films about Humpty Dumpty?
Wouldn't that be the egg equivalent of one of those graphic British PSAs, though? Maybe not on the level of "Apaches," but still.
Fun fact: the rhyme never mentions he's an egg.
@@kanna-san. But it also doesn't say he's NOT an egg! Eggmate!
@@kanna-san. because it was originally a riddle with the answer being "an egg".
Mama eggs raising baby eggs poses all sorts of insane existential questions about this world.
Not gonna lie, when Benedict fell off the steps and cracked his egg guts all over the pavement, I legit thought the short killed him off for his inconsiderate crimes and that's how it was gonna end until the other eggs started talking again.
9:35 "Duh haey! Jeff Dunham is very funny!" This made me laugh for several minutes upon first viewing approximately 4 months ago. It made me laugh just as long, starting approximately 4 minutes ago.
Thank you RiffTrax! Part of what makes it so hilarious is having to sit through a couple of his sets, because I know people who do think he is funny. Couldn't even conjure convincing fake laughter and thought to myself, "time is a precious commodity this guy is literally stealing it from me. There can never be a payoff for this." I was wrong, turns out it was just set-up to make this simple, beautiful joke a source of comedic rhodium. (Fun fact: In monetary value rhodium makes gold seem cheap by comparison.)
Music by Wendy Carlos...s' cat.
Yes! I actually remember watching this in my Kindergarten Class. We didn't take it seriously then either...
Everyone starts somewhere. The “Ronald B Underwood” sharing director credits here went on to direct a few little projects like the movies “Tremors”, “City Slickers”, “Pluto Nash” and a bunch of TV shows. He goes by “Ron Underwood” more commonly now. Phillip Kassel his associate here, went on to produce a ton more promotional films and other commercial projects. Barr films who produced this film continued to make hundreds of educational films before closing in 1994.
To be fair, Pluto Nash is probably the bigger embarrassment.
Ron: ER... I have nothing to do with that Pluto Nash film. I'm the guy who directs stop-motion egg shorts. I'm a RESPECTABLE director!"

No short, all I learned from this was that I am now in the mood for scrambled eggs
This takes me back to my childhood. Yes, it was silly, but it was also, in a weird way, cute.
I could give a good egg pun, but I feel they'll all end up turning into bad yolks....
Mostly because if you leave them out for too long, they'll start to smell like farts. And no one wants that.
I'll have several seats in hell.
I tried to think of an egg pun, but it just came out scrambled.
Don’t you mean several seats in shell?
holy crap it took me like 3 months to realize the title was a pun on example... i just kept trying to figure out how courtesy was a good sample of an egg.
This was some real hard-boiled drama.
Oh, these free short debuts are WONDERFUL! 💜🙂
There better have been a massive omelette at the wrap party for this film.
I always liked this short, it's pretty creative and charming in a weird way.
Quite charming, really! Eggs are cute enough as they are, but a little bow tie is delightful. I rather like the minimalist approach of having just a few felt appurtenances on each one without any facial or other features added with magic marker. And the music...well...I can abide it for about ten minutes (fortunately, that's all the time they needed). Rather reminds me of ancient Sesame Street segments that I know and fondly recall.
It's The Eggony and the Eggstasy!
We run the entire gamut of comment, from eggsaltation to eggscoriation! ... Whoops, pardon me - I think I have some rotten eggs to dodge... 🥚 🍳 🤭 😄
Avery Schreiber driving the school bus!
And this isn't even the weirdest short about courtesy they've done
Who forgot? I did not!
@@HylianFox3 courtesy will destroy the world!
This was Eggony.
"You can't make an egg without breaking a few omelets."
---Albert Einstein
lol I love how Benedict's lost like 50 IQ points from that injury
"JEFF DUNHAM VERY FUNNY"
“Bow before pinkie!”
“Leather man egg”
“Mickey Mouse has a…has a PENUS!”
“What came first the chicken or the me?”
Gosh so many great lines.
That is a very bad insult to Mickey Mouse but yet it still funny at the same time.
And yet, the VO here for the all the eggles was still better than the VO for a certain "Talking Cat"...
Those kids will crack their heads open at recess!
"Remembering the dead egg marines, who died in mess kits, at Normandy"
9:05 “Back of the line, Corky!”
Feels like something I would see on Sesame Street, but only 1 minute and will teach kids counting…. Or just to be weird and experimental.
Just yesterday evening I watched dr Who's 'Assylum of the Daleks'. 'Eggs, eggs, eggs...ter...minate!"
Benedict getting derpy at the end killed me.
"Somebody spent a long time on this/ He shot himself in the head very soo-oon after" HAHAHA!!!
Some eggs would be foo young for that class. (Mibbit ducks!)
Curly: "Oh, duck eggs!" (Moe smashes egg on Curly's head)
Mike was right in The Chicken Of Tomorrow: Eggs really ARE complicated.
It's funny how RIFFTRAX movies and MST3K movies have their parallels. What happens to Egbert is like what happens to Curly in TEENAGE STRANGLER. He's mean, he gets a terrible injury, then he's nice.
But this doesn't look like Charleston, West Virginia.... or does it?😬
Eggbert is a Good Egg and will see his days out as a cherished decorated Dyed Easter Egg
Benedict has nominative determinism. and Karma.
And then a bunch of Chansey found the Egg community and got super excited and started to practice their Egg Bomb attack!
Remember “Weeble Wobbles” that don’t fall down?
This is where Sir Pentious gets his minions.
I have a serious contempt for that soundtrack. It's all so dreary and depressing.
This was eggstremly entertaining.😁
*eggstremely eggtertainegg.
This is oddly terrifying.
I want to make an egg pun too, but all the good ones have been taken.
Love the Otto bus driver voice at the end \m/
I eegree
Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
The egg of course, because it got laid.
Lol!
And thus, Benedict gave up his jerkish ways, went on the straight and narrow and cut all ties with his long-time accomplice, Mr. Bungle.
Now I want to see the origin story of Benedict and Mr. Bungle's partnership, starring Benedict Cumberbatch as Benedict and Mike Patton as Mr. Bungle.
"Wish I could do that..." "But why is he foaming at the mouth?"
One of those shorts where the jokes just write themselves.
There are a lot of egg puns in this video. Lmao
Someone outta make an eggsample outta the makers of this eggstremely eggregious film. Seriously, I'm having an eggistential crisis.
Eggs, won't you?
The bus driver was Jamie Hyneman from MythBusters, it was his first egg role.
You deserves both a boo hiss, and round of applause for that!
their god is actually a chicken. who sits in those fancy egg-shaped chairs. he speaks in a smooth as butter voice that makes all the hens... Produce eggs!
Are these the same people who created the Russian doll short for Sesame Street back in the day?
The music's kind of similar, isn't it... Hmmm...
Nah, the Russian Doll thing was serious hippy/art SF type project. This is one of many educationals by a much more boring company.
Strangest version of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest I've ever seen
... It's like Mr. Bill, but with an _eggstravagent_ production budget. =)
Sadly, it seems no one wanted to be blamed for this as there's little about it on IMDB other than being featured on RiffTrax and being produced in 1976 by the same company that did Safety Woman! =)
That explains a LOT.
@@kcvinwehoLA
"That -explains- eggsplains a LOT"
There, fixed it for you. =)
I'm struggling with the ontological issues raised by the concept of a baby egg.
thank you! I was skimming all the comments, wondering if anyone else took issue with the idea of a 'parent' who's (still) an egg, somehow producing a 'baby' egg!
maybe they're like Tribbles, they're pregnant when laid/'born'?
