Without only the strongest potions, the knight would die. If it’s true that the potion seller’s potions would kill the knight, then the knight will die either way. At least the potion seller could make some coin off the knight before he died.
I always got the impression that the knight intended to use the potions against his enemies. Although, that may be due to the version I saw changing it so that the knight said he was about to fight a dragon after the seller stated the potion would kill one.

Pomodorosan or even more of a twist. He thinks his potions are so strong, no one could drink them. What he doesn’t know is that he just sucks, but coincidentally he became the best poison seller on the market.
I love the subtleties of this piece, like how the Knight is confident and stoic when he enters, while the Potion Seller is rather meek and introverted, speaking little. As the story continues, the characters develop, the Knight is flustered by the refusal of service and becomes at first irritated, then angered, then flat out desperate to obtain what the Potion Seller possesses. He exposes his core character flaw, that he is frightened of battle and doesn't trust himself to succeed without a performance enhancing drug. The Potion Seller becomes bolder, speaking more often and confidently, emboldened by the Knight's clear insecurities and pleading. These character flaws only make the Potion Seller more certain of his refusal of service and by the end he demands that the Knight leaves and underlines the core theme, that the Knight believes that the potions are worth more than anything a Knight can achieve naturally, and so he states that the potions are capable of anything that the Knight can do.
"I got asked on a red carpet recently which of the characters in 'Challengers' could handle the strongest potions, and I was caught off guard and so I said 'Tashi', and I was upset afterwards...(starts laughing) because the answer is none, no one.

I'm making sure that a highly emotional knight with a chin that could drill a hole into a brick wall gets the potions he so richly deserves from an arrogant potion seller that knows the truth behind the knight's weakness and is bluntly removing his self-confidence for reasons not even God himself knows. Don't worry, I'll be back in a bit more than three minutes."
"My potions are fit for a beast, let alone a man!" Potion Seller has a really roundabout way of letting Knight know that he's a veterinarian, not a pharmacist...
Not only he wrote Challengers, he also published a book, studied philosophy and literary arts at Brown uni, and is married to Celline Song, the director of Past Lives!. My mind is blown. Huge congrats to you Justin, you deserve it

I got drunk at a party once and I kept referring to the bartender as potion seller, and telling him to sell me his strongest potions. It got old really fast but I was too drunk to realise, so I kept doing it.
I'm gonna be honest, I'm a dungeon master, and I wrote a Dungeons & Dragons campaign where Potion Seller is a key recurring character throughout the story and it's my proudest achievement to date
Someone went to far with the fortify restoration loop and sold those potions to this guy. He may be a filthy rascal, but he is right. No one can handle those glitch-degree strong potions, not even the Dragonborn.
I love that you can hear somebody laugh in the background at 1:31 which just makes him break a little. The idea that you would do this in the same house as somebody has such a powerful energy
Not only that, but he turned his laugh into the knight breaking down into tears. All of Justin's videos are ad-libbed and he's a master of improvisation.
If you've seen Past Lives, the heartbreakingly beautiful Celine Song film, the husband is based on this guy. Strange to think about, but I'm happy for him!

Potion seller makes potions for the love of the art. He's got so good at making potions that they've become too strong for any being in existence, yet he doesn't make weaker potions, neither does he sell them anyway at the expense of the buyer's life, instead, he is willing to let his business die in his quest to make the strongest potion.
@@paulmahoney7619 But didn't he say his strongest potion will kill a dragon? Pretty sure once he consumes his own potion he will die but is that the first step of ascension? After all becoming a higher being does not mean you'll always be in your mortal form forever, maybe once he dies his spirit separate itself from the body and form a body that has ascended far beyond the human realm

GOOD. THIS REVIEWER IS NOT WELCOME HERE.
Amazingly skyrim hadn't been released yet.
Big mood
Some say he’s still fucking virgins today
How my anxiety think cashiers talk
lmao
You don’t have anxiety
@@jackcapaldi9894 and you're not a doctor
Cashier, I need your largest condoms.
You can't handle my largest condoms.
Cashier I'm telling you I need your largest condoms!
YOU CAN'T HANDLE MY LARGEST CONDOMS YOU'RE TOO WEAK
Bobby Money thank you for making me laugh, i needed that
This man has single-handedly inspired me to write characters
but can they handle his strongest potions
This Potion Seller is in my D&D game. He acts the same. He sounds the same. His potions are too strong for the characters.
@@alexsimonenko465 nope. Do it my man. Characters will buy the potions, and give it some bad consequences
@@ASuspiciousCrab Yes! My players will never forget the phrase "please roll a constitution check for me..."
@@alexsimonenko465 indeed. Wizards and sorcerers fear those words the most
He went from this to writing a play, a book, and a feature length film. All of them award winning
Imagine the roommate who lived with him. "Oh god that weirdo that talked into photobooth on his 2006 MacBook when he had writer's block? Thank god I never spoke to him again. Oh. Wha- he's written a movie starring Zendaya now?! And he's authored a book, what the heck???"
potion man, take by the hand, lead me to the land that you understand
Potion man, for I can not stand, laying on the sand, without your brew brands.
Oh . I found the bards !
Potion man, the voyage into battle for the globe is a real trip.
I just spit everywhere
Potion man, the author of a brand not fit for a man, rejecting all the knights that he can
"You've had your say potion seller, but I'll have mine."
“You’re a rascal!”
"You're a rascal with no respect for Knights!"
NO RESPECT FOR ANYTHING. EXCEPT YOUR P O T I O N S
Why respect knights...?
When my *potions* can do *anything* that *you* can...?
*quicksaves*
When the two worst roleplayers in the group get into an in-character debate
legit
Pretty fucking much every dungeons and dragons game ever.
Especially when alcohol gets involved.
*best roleplayers
Two best, you mean, the knight almost broke into tears
Im the 2k like :)
This man wrote one of the best screenplays of 2024...
Oh god, it’s resurfaced.
_but did it ever really leave?_

*IT SHALL NEVER DIE I, DEATH DECLARE IT SO!*

I love that he's cracking up.
That or on the verge of crying.
James Miller of course he’s crying, the potion seller won’t give him his strongest potions!
I'm convinced this video hasn't been seen by loads of people at all, and the millions of views are actually the same people coming back to it over and over again.

Well make a potion of speech then that's how skyrim works
@@daffaraihanputra1390 His potions are far too strong for you
2:38
Random Internet Guy LOL this video came out before Skyrim
@@daffaraihanputra1390 What and double down on an insipid potion seller that he himself said is too strong? Plus I dont think that kind of potion seller would sell something that might just impair his own "selling skills".
The fact he’s holding the laughter in amplifies the acting by making himself cry. Truly a master
This video truly deserves its legendary status. Just a guy having the purest of fun making the simplest of videos, and yet the result has spawned parodies, tributes, fanart, and fan made lore. This is UA-cam at its best, and a display of how great the consumer internet can be.
theres only one thing i want, is this potion seller character, voiced by justin, in elden ring, that'd complete my life and many others
...I can't tell if you're missing what is right in front of you, so I'd like to point it out:
This video is beautiful because it's pure fun with no ulterior motive (such as profit).. just a dude having fun! The internet gets much worse the more we lean into that word you just said: _consumer._
The beauty of the internet is almost entirely lost when we compulsively monetize it.
@@idontwantahandlethough they aren't missing anything, you are both saying the same thing. Is it the use of the word consumer that you have a gripe with?
The title of "consumer" has no link to monetary exchange unless you make it so.
But thanks to algorithms and Satan we can’t have videos like these won’t ever float to the top.
unfortunately the internet like life has been ruined by the rich
Absolutely wild that this dude would go on to write a film that made 100 million at the box office (Challengers)
I got drunk at a party once and I kept referring to the bartender as potion seller, and telling him to sell me his strongest potions. It got old really fast but I was too drunk to realise, so I kept doing it.
You want to believe they got the reference. You know they did not.
legend
Joke's on you it was a raccoon den in a hollowed out oak.
Brother, if I was your bartender you'd be getting doubles just for the reference.
His potions were too strong for you.
I always love how he transformed his laughing into crying to stay in character.
Now that is what I call maximum acting.
Hes trying so hard not to laugh thats hes crying
*hes crying*
666th like. congratulations 😈
Top notch therefore
the white teeth completes
what are you on about? he's crying because the guy doesn't want to sell him his bloody portions
yee haw eh he still laughed
no no, he's crying because he can't get the strong potions
This is the face of a man who has a very good chance of winning an academy award next year.
I'm gonna be honest, I'm a dungeon master, and I wrote a Dungeons & Dragons campaign where Potion Seller is a key recurring character throughout the story and it's my proudest achievement to date
That is AMAZING
Does he sell potions or just say the players are weak?
And none of them killed him?
Im a DM too... I need to find a way to fit this in x'D
@@IronBahamut his potions can do anything the knight can, he would win.
This doesn't seem like a sustainable buisness plan.
he only sells to his strongest potions.
Someone went to far with the fortify restoration loop and sold those potions to this guy. He may be a filthy rascal, but he is right. No one can handle those glitch-degree strong potions, not even the Dragonborn.
EvilerOMEGA ah yes, the 7 tiers of power

@@wrongtime9097 Beware the glitch-tier. Simply using items that powerful could destroy the entire world.
He's creating hype.
I love that you can hear somebody laugh in the background at 1:31 which just makes him break a little. The idea that you would do this in the same house as somebody has such a powerful energy
Not only that, but he turned his laugh into the knight breaking down into tears. All of Justin's videos are ad-libbed and he's a master of improvisation.
Nice catch. I m8ssed that.
I can’t get over how the slight giggles at the start evolve into genuine distress and desperation for the knight.
This influenced me a lot more than it should have
Leave potion seller in vodka for a week
Hey!!!!! Story goes full circle!!
How does this not have more likes?
hey it's the vodka guy!

If Justin wins an Oscar for Challengers I will be mad. The Oscar should have been for this masterpiece of a script.
In his acceptance speech: “Oscar givers, I am accepting an Oscar and I need your strongest award”
I’m going to have this potion seller in my next D&D game.
Yo let me know how it goes LMAO
This potion seller was in my last game, my dm is awesome
I'm making a Homebrew for the Potion Seller, lol!

Ooh, make it dangerous
A classmate of mine in Web Design was obsessed with this video all semester, to the point where he made multiple websites based on it.
what the
Could you please tell me the links? It's fine if you don't want to but I would love to see them
I think we all want to see these.
You can't just say this and NOT give the website links.

If you've seen Past Lives, the heartbreakingly beautiful Celine Song film, the husband is based on this guy. Strange to think about, but I'm happy for him!
this aged perfectly. this humor has mad a full circle
this is how I imagine buying drugs works.
more like "drug seller, I need..." - "ay man I've got everything, weed, coke, crack, you can have anything, anything you want, just go ahead and buy some of my drugs, my drugs are fit for anyone, anyone at all, no matter who you are, my drugs are a good way to get intoxicated"
Its very similar
Only when you're already on drugs
Knights dont buy drugs, they sell them.
Buying drugs is alot like this on drugs (depending on what u on)
Potion seller makes potions for the love of the art. He's got so good at making potions that they've become too strong for any being in existence, yet he doesn't make weaker potions, neither does he sell them anyway at the expense of the buyer's life, instead, he is willing to let his business die in his quest to make the strongest potion.
His true goal is to create a potion that will allow him to transcend this mortal coil
Oh hey that *is* Frampt! What's up buddy?
This is great and I want to create a character based on this.
Then why does he advertise himself as a potion seller?
@@paulmahoney7619
But didn't he say his strongest potion will kill a dragon? Pretty sure once he consumes his own potion he will die but is that the first step of ascension? After all becoming a higher being does not mean you'll always be in your mortal form forever, maybe once he dies his spirit separate itself from the body and form a body that has ascended far beyond the human realm
my friends and I used to watch this all the time in college. anyway I just saw Challengers in the theater and wanted to congratulate you. five star movie. thank you for the entertainment all these years
