    One of the things i love in this animation is how the father just throws everything at gildedguy.Even a literal golden house.Showing how he doesn't care about these things. Money or material things don't compare to how much he loves and cares for him. Literally wasting it all just to keep his son and make sure he gets a stable life in the future

    • @Ultrox007
      @Ultrox007 6 місяців тому +14

      I read it as a personal story between Gilded and his actual dad - figuring the dad wanted to provide for his son, leaving him a business, a house, general stability and the money needed to properly provide and support for the geater joys in life - like raising a family of his own.
      But much arguing about inheriting the family business finally lead to the dad admitting it's jut not what would make his kid happy and paying - at least in part - for him to go to art school to follow his passions.
      You can also see that gilded worries the work makes his dad miserable, but later you can see that to the dad it's just something you get through to enjoy his time out of work and with his family.
      And as a result, gilded (the artist, not the character) gave his parents this animation as a thank you.
      Personally I'm just happy to see a father depicted as adversarial but not evil like so much other art. He's not a bad guy, he just disagrees with his son.

      @@Ultrox007 Tightest analysis of this one I've seen yet. And GG does accept a small bag of gold on his way out, but nothing like the literal-and-metaphorical riches his father was throwing and promising - which GG was literally riding the way up out of the stagnation he saw in his own future. Even Ma was throwing what little she could. One thing that really makes this series interesting is the swings between literal and metaphorical during the fight scenes but you really wonder - where is the line between the two? I suspect that in this setting it is VERY blurred.

    What struck me the most was how you didn't see Gilded Guy's dreams and aspirations by looking at the star he's staring at, but looking at his eyes as he stares. Also how his eyes are filled with dreams and imagination and if you look at his dad's eyes they are filled with gold. Kind of gives extra meaning to Story #5 as well! All of that just from the eyes alone, not to mention everything else!

Jade later came to ask for his assistance for some mission (I think) But wasn't sure if his was up for it and thus decide to do a friendly duel. He lossed along was his gloves and ego being destroyed amiss the the fight. Jade however decided that his WAS up to the task and decide to have his gloves AND legs fixed. Then theres the organization itself. Nemisis also isn't really as bad as people think. In which I Realllllly suggest watch the movie about it called umbrella.

    4:41 I’m surprised no one was talking about this was his Dad holding back his tears. He didn’t enjoy fighting or hurting his son, but sometimes you need to show tough love especially for something he thought was right for his son. But as we saw Gilded didn’t have the same passion for his work as his father did. And he understood what was being given to him, a very good job, a possible happy relationship, and overall success, however could you really enjoy that success if it’s not your passion. Also notice the figures made from gold, butterfly, bird, and a horse; these living creatures in one way or another will symbolize life and freedom which I thought was a brilliant touch as being stuck in a routine can make you feel dead inside. Overall this animation was a “GOLD” mine and brilliantly executed I can’t wait to see more.

      Just to add onto this even though I’m hella late, but he actually stops whatever he’s doing and goes to stop his son. He cares more about his son potentially leaving him than whatever he was currently doing, which may very well have been important, but he’d rather deal with the potential consequences later than not have tried to keep his son close.
      Also during the vision scene we see that GG has a memorial to his father with his watch, showing that while leaving, he was by no means angry with him. They both love each other to death, and ironically, GG acts like his father, placing happiness over money or even his job.

As for the electricity, dude relies on an imaginary power called his dreams to fight in the first place, so what makes you think his imagination, which was part of his dreams, cannot assist in the control of that, since who haven't imagined themselves at least once controlling electricity?

    I think this is a direct parallel to gildedguys life. he was wondering what he should become in life and the dad offered up a position at his company. the dad had been hoping he would join since he was a kid, but gildedguy realizes he had a calling for going out there and using a sword and adventuring seeing the world (maybe a direct parallel for guildedguy becoming an animator) but after working there for a long time he got fed up with the same mundane routine and he don't wanna live like everyone else. started to express what he loves to do in the work place by making those nametags for everyone's workplace. he stays late at night working on his craft and working on his dream and he collects all of that in a bucket he uses to paint with. he even rejects the money his father gives him (i think the dad was gonna make him head of the company too with that helmet or give him a higher position)
    after some time he charges at the star the battle against his dad is less of a battle and more of gildedguy trying to prove himself to his dad and mom showing them that he can make it in life with his calling and something he wants to do outside of the company, a trial and conversation in one fight.
    so he goes at the green star (or his dreams) but his dad is in the way and his dad literally showers him with money showing him that he has everything he need right here and he doesn't need to go and gildedguy almost loses to this ideal but he gets avision, of his dad building his life for the ground up and getting everything a person would want, money, a family, a business and even a cat but you see that the dad had to drop his hopes and dreams of becoming whatever he wanted to be on that paper (maybe an adventurer what gildedguy what's to be now) and you can see empty paint buckets all around him saying he ran out of his ambition desire to become what he really wanted so he had to settle for a mundane and normal life. (you can even see a picture in the back of that scene with a picture of most likely him with the phrase R.I.P. under it probably meaning that his hopes and dreams and ambitions have died.)
    so gildedguy realizing this uses the gold to fight back in a way, trying to reach his father figuratively and literally using his talent and skills to reach the level his father is at while also showing the people watching he can do it too with the creations he can make like the bird, butterfly, and horse statue. in this moment gildedguys eyes get stained green with his paint representing that gildedguy can always see his dreams and he is always focused on it and that's why he can only see the green star in the sky. (the star do 2 things acts as a guiding light for guildedguy to follow and it acts as a reminder to him to follow his dreams)
    the dad reaches his hand out the gildedguy near the end of the fight just showing again that this is one big trial to show if gildedguy can prove himself. he succeeds in doing all this and you can see right before he defeats his dad his mother looks worried and starts pleading him to stop by throwing money at him and she probably wonders if he's gonna make it but he does it any way. and his dad gives him a farewell sending him off with a reassured look on his face. guilded guy walks of into the big unknown world with some money (obviously), his bucket of dreams and the paintbrush he uses to express his talent, skills, and dreams and he goes into his first adventure.

He can't see the star, and even though at that point he is willing to acquiesce, he doesn't understand what could be worth the safety and security of their home, their community, or their jobs. But then he looks at his son, and he sees how desperately he wants this, how he wants more than anything to go outside and create his own path. Then, he sees the star, in Gilded's eye. He realizes how important it is to him, understands he can trust him, and gives him his blessing to go out into the world.
    God, I'm tearing up just thinking about it. He might not get it, but he loves his son and trusts the job he did raising him. He believes in him, even though it's not the path he intended for him.
    I also love the end is a mirror of the beginning, albiet more extreme. Guy chose a different career than his dad, and while you can see his disappointment for a moment, he accepted it and congratulated Guy because it's what his son chose. It was a small step that helped him accept the big one later.

    It’s deep how, despite abandoning the future that his father set up for him, Gildedguy still used the welder’s helmet from his work as his first set of adventure armor. And even though he resisted his son’s dreams, the father’s gold still served as an invaluable protection for GildedGuy in his battles (even if over time the original gold was being slowly replaced due GG having to patch up his broken armor). So in reality, Gildedguy’s own power is the neon ink while his iconic armor represents his father’s legacy.

    I know I'm a bit late, but I've watched this a bunch of times, and it really resonates with me. Gildedguy's supposed father (the guy who shoots the gold coins out of a bag) wants him to get a well-paying job, and have a 'normal' (in his eyes) life. But, Gildedguy wants to become an adventurer! However, he does like to draw as well, so decides to compromise by working as an... artist? As time goes on though, he starts to dislike his life. He realizes the money he gets from his job doesn't make him happy, and stops hanging out with friends. This culminates in him flying up into the sky on a paint-bridge thing, to break free. His 'father' tries to stop him, holding him back with money. But in this critical moment, where Gildedguy is getting pushed back, overwhelmed, he gets a vision. He realizes that despite all money can give him, he will grow old an unhappy man. So he decides to push through, and eventually, he manages to reach his father. Finally realizing what his son truly wants, he lets him go.
    I feel like this story showcases an important lesson that people just don't know. I've heard countless cases of people going into fields or taking jobs solely for the money, or their parents, without thinking about what THEY want. Without thinking if they'll enjoy it. No matter how good your job is, no matter how much money you make, if you waste the prime of your life, doing something you don't like, what's the point? Perhaps comfort and luxury is not what should be valued, but rather long-term enjoyment, and experiences that will last you your whole life. Anyways, to whoever is reading this, thanks for listening to my rant. I just find it so sad that people will do something that they hate for their entire professional life in order to make money. And I feel that this story perfectly shows the struggle of someone trying not to do that.

    This actually hits hard for me. Especially since my father is an interior designer. He always cherished me, wanting me to be like him, continue his company and I can attain a wealthy and rich life. But, like Gildedguy, I threw all of that away to achieve my dream as an artist. Somehow I think me and him aren't that different. I too am struggling with my finance (but still manageable). The reason I threw all that easy life was because I just wanted to achieve my dream, and I also knew that it'll be a hard and grueling journey for me. But in the end, I feel fulfilled and knowing that I can grow with each step I take. So thank you Gildedguy for not giving up on your dreams and give inspirations to people like me.

    Really gotta love the subtilty of 5:10 - 5:15, Dad AND Mom is more-or-less pleading with their son to stay, pouring money onto him to show there's nothing more that he needs and he has both financial stability and security, if he stays there. Gil even knows it, from a vision of his future; but the only thing lacking is that joy and fulfillment he'd miss out on by deny his dream.
    Personally though...I'd probably just let go of my dreams, for the safety, security, and stability that wealth can bring you. Though, with that amount of money, he could always hire a replacement right? Then go about his dreams? Or maybe, he'd be too old and worn out by that time?
    I'm also questioning, if that Glint in the sky, is symbolic of Gil's aspirations and dreams, while HE can see, his father can't, because he no longer has any because of his current situation? Kind of like, how children are bright eyed and dream of the future and what they wanna be when they grow up, while us adults who couldn't capture our dreams, and just settled for what we have, and live on day-by-day basis, making ends meet.

On top of that we all want things and while that feeling can be attributed to greed, if you look at what spurs on the green eyed cowboy, its looking at what others have (Money, Love, and fame) and then wanting it. Greed in it of itself is a weak sin because unlike the other deadly sins, its counter is basic survival which isn't really tied to anything emotional, so it will often piggy back on Envy with the less fortunate and pride with those who find success.

    • @q-tek8349
      @q-tek8349 3 роки тому +6

      @@ryanmaclean1720 If you don't mind, I'm gonna elaborate a little more on what I said there. Gildedguy basically has three visions involving the GEC that are, like you said, about money, love, and fame. While the visions are hedonistic and at times a bit scummy (e.g. indiscriminately killing other RHG characters/duelists, dumping several girlfriends), I wouldn't say those visions are _that_ bad. Extremely ambitious, but still somewhat reasonable.
      But then the GEC stabs the representation of Gildedguy's best qualities (the knight at ua-cam.com/video/eOMUnZ16bMk/v-deo.html. "Jesus Gildedguy," if you will.) GEC then transforms into the "Envy Knight," if you will, who I contend is a fundamentally different character than GEC. It's the Envy Knight that starts breaking into entirely inappropriate contexts (e.g. other UA-cam animations that have nothing to do with the stick fight community).
      Also, it's the Envy Knight who is... well, envious of Lilian's gardening abilities, not GEC. In fact, Gildedguy has to embrace the positive side of GEC (ambition) by putting on GEC's bandit mask in order to stop his envious side from taking over. In other words, the ultimate point is that while GEC/ambition can be dangerous and can cross into the much worse Envy Knight/envy, it's not inherently bad and is in fact healthy: the key is to control yourself while still letting some of your ambition motivate you.
      This would explain why we see GEC lingering around at the end of Story 5: it was never meant to be repressed, simply controlled and embraced. This is also why we see GEC come out to look at the green star at the end of Story 6: Bog trauma inhibited GG from pursuing his passion for art, so when Gildedguy overcomes his trauma, GEC can look forward without obstruction.

    So many things I didn’t notice when I watched the video in fortnite:
    1. The number 18 connected to the key
    2. Gildedguy’s father had a gift chair ready to give to his son since he thought he would have picked the same job.
    3. When seeing his future Gildedguys father passed away you can see a picture of it in the background as he was looking at his pictures.

So he techinically fighting his own father who wanted him the life he set for him (running the buisness)over going out to be an adventuer and spreading his painting magic. and as we see while his father at first refused seeing how much this cared to Gilded he let him leave with enough money to start his new life.
      Through I will add at the beginning it was clear they let Gilded choose where he wanted to work with all the hat and the key as he must have come of age to legally work.
