After hearing him talk about not constraining himself to a schedule and just going wherever he wants with the plot, I'm shocked this this ever got finished. There are so many creatives who will work on their "dream project," until the day they die because the scope keeps changing and they don't constrain themselves to any direction or time schedule. Props to Phil for actually finishing a project like that
@jawaela THIS. I am a composer. I can only finish a piece on a deadline. I always have some big qualm with those pieces. There's a section I just can't finish, or put the right ideas in, or whatever. I love pieces like this. Haven't seen the full Mad God but will have to now
10 years later and this has FINALLY released! It’s fantastic. Really jaw dropping and beautiful- in a grotesque nightmarish way. Not a conventional ‘movie’ in that the story, if there even is one, is really open to interpretation. There is a narrative shift that is pretty jarring and occurs about half way through and that’s when things get really weird. If I was to glean anything from the film I might take it as Phil’s very dim view of the human condition. The various monsters and hellish environments the assassin(s) travel through are sometimes (but not always) obvious metaphors for the variety of horrors that exist in our own world. Ultimately, this is more about the experience of the visuals (and sound!) and the feelings it provokes. It’s a work of art.
Really a work of art indeed. Also I think this is a kind of film that you can watch every year again, like a Christmas film. But maybe without your grandchildren :)
10 years later...I just got back from seeing it at an independent theater and it was amazing! It was bizarre, gross, enthralling, jaw-dropping, stunning...it was a mind-boggling epic!
Cant believe I am seeing this video made 11 years ago after I watched the movie and seeing how Phil talks about what he is going to do and how it panned out. So awesome
Wow, crazy! Just scrolling through the comments, and realizing that this video is 10 years old! Just saw the film, and searched for some interviews etc. Really a masterpiece btw!
Who’s here 30 years later & finally we have a trailer !!! I only have been on earth 2 years long than this man has been working on one project … let that sink in. I heard my what at the time I thought was my nerdy cousin, who later I realized was my cool cousin talking about this when we watched empire. Telling me one of the guys who “made the Ton Ton’s” was working on his own movie. I was 5 & never forgot. I actually thought I made it up. Glad it’s finally coming !!!
Watching this, I was curious and looked at the upload date: _2012!_ I'm glad I only just saw this now, _after_ having watched the film. Waiting an entire decade would have driven me nuts...
14:05 Phil has a portrait of himself, wearing the same clothes he always does. I like these old guys who seem to be boring, but are actually incredibly imaginative and innovative. Kind of a neat paradox, to observe sometimes...
Part 3 is out soon too. I just finished watching part 2 (about 5 minutes ago). It's pretty expensive for what you get though; part 1 is 10 minutes and part 2 is 15 minutes, which cost $15.
Some of those props are the coolest fucking things I've ever seen in my life and hearing him talk about everything makes me excited to go make things. Definitely gonna check this out now that I know about this. Also Norm forever
Harryhausen and Tippett are the two titans of stop motion. Any animator would step over their mother to work with him. Interesting to hear that he doesn't feel that it's important to shoot every shot himself. I thought this was a very personal project. Unfettered Tippett. But it's more than that. I guess it started off as a very personal project, but he's opened it up to collaboration. The main question I would ask is, why so nightmarish? From what I know of Tippett, he has been somewhat burnt by Hollywood and is an intelligent and perhaps cynical man. And maybe that explains it. But he seems to be tapping into a level of darkness that I left behind as a teenager. And perhaps I'm poorer without it.
I swear. Every video I watch with Norm in it, at some point he pisses me off by grabbing something out of someone's hands or off something without asking. Man, does that drive me nuts.
Oh wow. From when this video was posted they were already talking about its release.... Good to know it's now actually getting that long awaited release lol
Poor Norm just going through the introductions and already ol man Tippetts rolling his eyes and giving him the death glare stinkeye, LOL What a crotchety ol fart.
Muchas cosas geniales en este proyecto, ¡Gracias mr. Tipper por darle vida! Las texturas, los líquidos, la opresión que se percibe es agobiante y estremecedora. Aplaudo especialmente la originalidad de sus personajes, en un mundo donde todos los animadores 3D hacen siempre monstruos tipo H.R. Giger, se copian los unos a los otros o simplemente usan todos las mismas texturas, encontrarse con otras bestias salidas de no sé que rincón del inframundo es por decirlo poco, refrescante. También me gustó esa búsqueda personal al tratar de romper la clásica estructura de una cinta comercial. En fin, de nuevo, muchas gracias.
am i the only one who thinks that films should be made with stop motion again because i think stop motion is more artistic and makes me feel more realistic
He mentions that some people seeing him archiving early film footage of the project thought it looked like a “long lost xxxxxx project.” Can anyone tell me the name he said? Sounded like Arrovic or Aravic?
you know... i was thinking.. you know.. i might actually comment.. you know.. but i figured.. you know.. someone probably beat me to it.. you know.. turns out.. you know.. it was you...
At 4:10 Phil mentions the name of a filmmaker. Sounds like darevich but I can't make it out and am turning up nothing with google search. Can anyone help me out here?
It's about the remnants of mankind being in the last days of an apocalypse caused by some kind of "mad god". What I can't peace together is the assassin descends into the place on some kind of lift yet we see him pass a skyscraper and ruins of cities on the way down. So did he come from some kind of aircraft or is the area he arrives in underground?
This man is a fucking artist with his work an I just seen MAD GOD and its beyond beautiful with the strange narrative of what's even really going on an I loved it from the time, the dark horrible realities, from live action peices to stop motion
My god, I just noticed that this video came out in 2012. We finally see the movie, but 10 years later. I think he changed the design on the "shitmen". In the movie they look more like they're made out of moss.
"Dear Mr Tippett, now that we're just the two of us, would you mind if i just called you Almighty God ??" would have been my reaction. Thanks for my childhood btw.
Just realised the strange distribution policy of pt. 1 and 2. In my opinion, there would be many more people buying, thus watching and enjoying his work on this, if it wold be provided in a more suitable way. Some diversity of payment policy would help a lot. I want to watch badly since hearing about him working on it since years, but I will never ever sport a credit card to buy art.
He looks like the physical fusion of Kyle gas and Jack black... Except you expected the fusion to produce a goofier than life guy but instead it made a super artsy fartsy guy..

That’s the point of passion projects. They may never be finished but all the more important to the creators themselves.
And for keeping at it that long, when the ending seems like it may come to fruition. Impressive tenacity

Beautifully put mate
I started watching it and it's the first time since I was a kid in the 80s that my mind was opened and stimulated while watching a film.
i recently bought the dvd for this, and ive watched it 5 times this week, and im still not bored
just watched Mad God last night, the clock sound effects in this set still lingers on me... Thank you Phil!
The wheezing sound of the clock ticking down and then speeding up again in the panic of realisation was so good
HA same! The evil sad Diinig Diiing DIING dIIIng
Another 10 years and I've just seen it. Unimaginable effort has gone into this project, bravo!
- and on the part of such an absurdly talented man.
It's finally coming!
20 years. Mental.

10 years in the future here. This movie just came out last year and it is amazing. Good work on it.
Just watched it... It's a masterpiece. So moving, grotesque and beautiful
Love it. I can't wait for Mad God.
I just watched Mad God part 1 and all I can say is WOW! It really is a one of a kind experience and I enjoyed every second of it. I need more!

I funded his kickstarter to get it made and he has released the first two parts. :)
Back again after the teaser. See you in 10 years for perfection.

Also Norm forever
Just saw this in theaters! What a nightmarish beautiful piece of work!
I watched this tested eps when it came out. Now I've seen mad gods. Now I have to watch this again.

I can't wait too.
Man I hope you’re still alive to see it
did you like it?
I swear. Every video I watch with Norm in it, at some point he pisses me off by grabbing something out of someone's hands or off something without asking. Man, does that drive me nuts.
yes, disrespectful
Tyler Messer 11:31
first time seeing him in a vid, but yeah, this little grab pierces right through social etiquette .
I though it was just me that found him unbearable. The way he asks questions is also very rude - can't put my finger on why it's annoying.
@@yousifdelvalle4162 I know. That guy. Haha
I love the way he smiles and swing his head and arms when he talks
Mad Genius is Phil!
I love his imagination and creations..
This movie felt like peering directly into someone 's dream or more accurately, nightmare. 10/10!
imagine having the chance to work with this guy together on a project
Oh wow. From when this video was posted they were already talking about its release.... Good to know it's now actually getting that long awaited release lol
After just seeing Mad God for the first time, this video is epic!
Damn this was 10 years ago. And it was worth the wait imo.
Thank You Mr.Tippet. Such a Horrible nightmare, but Exactly what I needed. All My Love....
and it's finally coming out!
Poor Norm just going through the introductions and already ol man Tippetts rolling his eyes and giving him the death glare stinkeye, LOL What a crotchety ol fart.
I hope one day I can have this amount of commitment and talent god damn
My uncle had one of those radio shack robot arms, and it was always the highlight of the holiday to go and play with it.
i loved mad god, visionary.
I cannot wait to see this!!!
Mad God is gorgeous, I am awe-struck.
The assassin design is so cool.
Agreed, hurt me a little to see he gets “eviscerated” at some point
I can't believe it finally happened!!!
Muchas cosas geniales en este proyecto, ¡Gracias mr. Tipper por darle vida! Las texturas, los líquidos, la opresión que se percibe es agobiante y estremecedora. Aplaudo especialmente la originalidad de sus personajes, en un mundo donde todos los animadores 3D hacen siempre monstruos tipo H.R. Giger, se copian los unos a los otros o simplemente usan todos las mismas texturas, encontrarse con otras bestias salidas de no sé que rincón del inframundo es por decirlo poco, refrescante. También me gustó esa búsqueda personal al tratar de romper la clásica estructura de una cinta comercial. En fin, de nuevo, muchas gracias.
This is going to be one of those films that people say they've seen all of it but left after 20 mins.
So now that the finished product has premiered in the film festival, how can I see it too?
It's finally out on Shudder!!!!!!
Dude is such a mad genius
Just saw this an it does live up to the hype!
Stop motion for life
can we appreciate the fact the guy has a portrait of himself dressed the exact same way
am i the only one who thinks that films should be made with stop motion again because i think stop motion is more artistic and makes me feel more realistic
Avec le nombre de vue, vous avez doit à intégrer gratuitement des sous titres, ce serait vraiment super !
He mentions that some people seeing him archiving early film footage of the project thought it looked like a “long lost xxxxxx project.” Can anyone tell me the name he said? Sounded like Arrovic or Aravic?
The shit men. This man is amazing
I would love to know where and when I get to see this movie!?
Whos the guy hes talking about in 16:50? Carl Seaman?
"You know..." - Phil Tippett
I swear I heard those two words a hundred times...
you know... i was thinking.. you know.. i might actually comment.. you know.. but i figured.. you know.. someone probably beat me to it.. you know..
turns out.. you know.. it was you...
I do the exact same thing. I think it's to sort of seek confirmation and agreement with the person you're talking to, you know?
This project is just amazing
Realm of the Mad God! Sorry had to say it but that looks really cool.
The trailer looks sick af

"Is there a story?" The correct answer is no, and that's fine.

AT LAST!
I have questions….
Perhaps he loves to work on this during his free time and he doesn't want to finish it.
releasing the frustration of Hollywoods crap, and the worry about VFX being outsourced overseas
Netflix please any Netflix executives we need this to go bigger!!!!
