One of my favorite forms of filmmaking, is the ability to tell stories without having to use dialogue. Which is something Pixar does wonderfully!!!!!!!
Fun fact: Gary Rydstrom, the writer/director of this short, is a very well respected sound designer, going back to the Terminator 2 days. The multitude of switches is meant to evoke what a sound mixing console looks like to the uninitiated.
Gary Rydstrom was also the original writer and director of the canceled Pixar film called "Newt," which was supposed to be a love story of the last two blue-footed newts on earth that would try to save their species. It was shelved because the concept sounded a lot similar to the Blue Sky film "Rio".
The funny part about this is that this is basically an alien interpretation of a drivers test on how your supposed to abduct a earthling from his home... It's really funny to me! XD
The guy's name is Ernie, and the reason he looks so much like Linguini, is because he was actually meant to be the earlier design for him, until Pixar changed him.
I loved this show when I was a little kid, one time I saw this when I was young and I was over tired so when the chubby alien's chest caved in at 4:13, I started crying thinking that he's always be that way forever. LOL
I laughed so hard, a bathroom case... These are made by such incredibly talented people, slightly twisted minds and a whole lot of money: a perfect mix. Thanks for the upload. Ouiiiii, un autre, un autre!
'twisted minds' i would genuinely considder that offensive. twisted minds means something is off the hook with the developpers. the script writers have a great sens of humor, they're not mentally ill like you're stating.
I said ''slightly'' twisted minds and I meant it as a compliment, as in 'out of the box thinking' kind of. Mentally ill is exactly the opposite of what I meant, sorry you took it in such an offensive way. But we're never gonna survive unless We get a little crazy No we're never gonna survive unless We are a little, crazy... - Seal (from his song ''Crazy'')
If you watch a very very funny episode of SNL, for example, you might think: Boy, these people are crazy! Would you mean by that mentally ill? Take care and good luck with the game.
I saw this short film in a movie theater playing ratatouille. Because the human man looked so much like linguini from the movie I thought that the alien abduction was the reasons his hair controlled his body as shown in the film when he and remmy the rat are cooking. It was years later that I realized it was just a big coincidence.
2:02 Me crashing my speeder bike on purpose again and again on the Lego Skywalker Saga level Endor the Line when the scout troopers make me blow up instantly, then lose studs, or give me heavy damage by bumping me on the side. Especially when there are no brakes at all, and Leia mocked me about finding the brakes.
The short has a few easter eggs: A super-tiny version of Tinny from Tin Toy can be seen under Ernie's bed at exactly 2:22 If you look closely at Ernie, you can make out that he's actually an early design model of Alfredo Linguini, a character from the Pixar movie Ratatouille, which was the same movie that accompanied the short in theaters.
This is like taking ur driving lesson’s test and omg, when I was a kid watching this, I was LMAO 😂so hard and I still laughed at it so many times and this is why Pixar is good at making those short films like this
It’s the scream from every Pixar movie to date.First seen in an Indiana Jones movie by a character named John Wilhelm now used as a sound effect in thousands of movies and tv shows
1:20 "Di-di-deh-det-buh-buv … buh … dit-dit-dit … dit … " The closest thing we ever get to a piece of dialogue in this short is that nervous stutter. Seriously, though, the first time I heard that I actually thought he was saying something to the other alien in this weird gibberish language they spoke.
Fellas, remember that feeling you get when your heart gets broken? Remember that feeling you get when you realise life is useless? Remember when you were a kid and those feelings didn’t exist? Good times.
Pixar, is there any thing you can't do? *Wall-E 2 canceled* First epic mickey 3 and now wall-e 2? I feel so in the blue. Man, this rhyme is stuck to me like Glue. Dang it, Dr. Who (It sorta rhymes)! You made me catch a flu! Why you!
All that sh*t, and he doesn't wake up. Slammed into walls, Levitated, the sheets pulled from him, and dragged through a window. *ALARM CLOCK WAKES HIM UP*

I agree. I’m in the Film and Television Production program and I’m learning this stuff. You made a great point so thumbs up to that

yeap first time i saw the big analogue one at my uni it was this feeling then i learned it its worse or feels it with the digital sound desks
2:23 2:33
Yep also his real life dog did the growling and snarling for Stu and Mr.B.

4:57 the legendary scream recycled through out the ages.
That one is known as the Wilhelm Scream.
WILHELM, NOOOOO!!!
Finally, an upload WITH the actual original sound effects.
I know right? I love the sound experiments but please, let me have the original too
Just remember. The guy woke up from an alarm clock. Nothing else.
AND he fell to his death
@@jaidanthomas5252 accompanied by the Wilhelm scream 😂😂
He is not dead
@@amoneytoonjust fall
@@jaidanthomas5252No, he might’ve died because of the surroundings of him in a 90-foot drop.
Oh man the visual comedy here is impeccable. If this was in the theater I bet the audience would be going crazy over this
I bet I would be scared of the Wilihelm scream because I have a fear of cats shrieking or Wilihelm screams in movies or shows!
This was shown in a theater. I remember this being shown before Ratatouille
In the trainee's defense: All those switches and flips are unlabeled and identical.
and the examiner just blazed through them like no tomorrow.
well, they could see things we can't
thechancel0r true, true
He had a manual, no excuses haha.
In the audio commentary for the short the instructor gives him a B so he still passes the assignment
4:51 By the time Ernie was about to wake up and fell to his death from the Wilhelm scream that was funny and hilarious 🤣
I find it very eronic how he survived being crushed Just a die from falling To the crater
The funny part about this is that this is basically an alien interpretation of a drivers test on how your supposed to abduct a earthling from his home...
It's really funny to me! XD
Gold Wolf you’re*
Or a checkride for pilots
althought the whole buttons with no writtnig stuffs and to tuch all of them is funny
One of the most devoted Pixar short films of all time
Animation is a language that anyone can understand, its amazing 👏
2:02; *I'M CUCKOO FOR COCO PUFFS!!! CUCKOO FOR COCO PUFFS!!!*
4:56 The Wilhelm scream
When i was younger I actually thought of this like a father trying to teach their kid how to drive. But now I know it’s just a driving instructor
I wish they'd release the soundtracks for this. I'd love to hear that triumphal music, without it being interrupted.
I always thought that guy was Linguini.
Same
Diego Bareno the resemblance is similair though...
Diego Bareno maybe u just found an Easter egg
Diego Bareno he is probably linguini identical twin
The guy's name is Ernie, and the reason he looks so much like Linguini, is because he was actually meant to be the earlier design for him, until Pixar changed him.
3:38 We found the kid building in the Lego commercials!
2:00 when you lose your last life going against the final boss in a video game.
How about when Crash Bandicoot keeps getting killed and going into angel form? And I mean from the N. Sane Trilogy version.
*That one feeling when you miss one beat an get an OK on Lockstep*
Or when that HandPunch machine at work refuses to scan my hand at the end of my shift, probably because of my knuckles being dry. Saying "ID Refused"
When Mario keeps falling in Super Mario Odyssey. Especially wasting his 6 lives.
So true xD
That big alien doesn't seem to have any bones, yet he can crack his knuckles.
. . . Nah.
.... Aliens
Nathan Trumbo h. Y+
Yea how fake right?
Maybe in Alien life they have Jones instead of Bones and thats 100% not a made up word
Did you know the guy was actually a early design for Alfredo Linguini from Ratatouille?
Wait...linguini's First name is Alfredo!?!
@@gabriel-qu1zu I didn’t know
I love ratatouille its my favorite and I do know it was linguini actually early design how did you know that
Man, Linguini's really gone through a lot.
I agree
2:03-2:09 is pretty much my everyday life in school😂
2:09 when you sleep past your alarm and have less than five minutes to get to school
Oblivious Spacecase
He’s quicksilver getting ready for school
this is my favorite comment ever
This is one of my favorite shorts along with Presto. Love the ending when the man was falling and let out his willhelm scream. XD LOL
I never laughed so hard at 2:09 to 2:15 when I saw this in theaters.
When Ratatouille came out?
Oooo
Ooooooo
Same here 🤣🤣🤣
@@stefantomasi4036in 2007.
2:10 It's hilarious seeing the man sleep peacefully while his body is being tossed around like a ragdoll.
Watching this at 21 now and I'm just now realizing how much of a heavy sleeper that guy is lol
I loved this show when I was a little kid, one time I saw this when I was young and I was over tired so when the chubby alien's chest caved in at 4:13, I started crying thinking that he's always be that way forever. LOL
Alien's version of the DMV behind the wheel test, 😂

i didn't, i would if it was directed to me. if i created such a piece of art. then again, it's just me. dont mind it. aaand i just died in my game.

3:35 this layout it’s SO GOOD OMG
I know that part killed me! I love the comedy in this
Man, do I love that thudding noise from Rogue one a star wars story in that short film
For the love of God, this is wrong, but also extremely hilarious. As a kid I couldn't stop laughing at this!!😅
I remember enjoying these when I was young just wanted to see them again
I did the math, there's literally 2000 switches. 100x20
@Jorge B doesn't take that much time to count and calculate honestly
Wow
4:56
Still one of their best
Ooh! This my favorite Disney and Pixar short film!
Mine too
@@stefantomasi4036so is mine, and I also like tin toy, and geri's game.
RIP that dude's 2 dogs and 4 cats. And his mother that was sleeping in the other room.
And him.
1:59 this is me in school when I was told that I got more test while I thought I finished them all.
I'd love to see this as a movie
The wilheim scream at the end though
pixar shortfilms are All real works of art ♡ ♡ ♡
I know, they really just let themselves be unrestrained and free when they make these. They're so good
You right

the Wilhelm scream at the end killed me
*4:25* When life can't seem to get any worse and you roll your ankle going down a hill
Wilhelm Scream moment (I like the Wilhelm Scream sound)
Me too
i love how the guy is a heavy sleeper the whole short😂😂
Isabel Caro g
not even an earth quake can wake him up, but a standard alarm clock can lol
A major concussion will do that to you
Head canon: he was given special alien tranquilizer for the test that, by design, would wear off precisely at the time his alarm clock goes off.
How did I not realize until now that that was a Wilhelm scream at the end
Can't stop lmao when the little alien slams the saucer downwards😂
The short has a few easter eggs:

Arthur Christmas is one heavy sleeper.
The human looks like 2 drops of water like Linguini's Character in Ratatouille !!!!!

Zarina Ismailova It's in every star wars movie
2:07 is my first day playing garry's mod.
Pixar should do a movie about those aliens it would be cool to see.
How is he sleeping from all of this he must be dreaming something good
3:22 Mission Impossible.
How does he not wake up!
Have you ever actually woke up when the aliens tried to capture you? So haven't I, it just doesn't work that way.
They say some people sleep like the dead. Exhibit A.
2:31;His Anus.
2:02 when I get homework over the summer holidays
Yea thats quite literally the worst objective in school.
4:56 AAAAAAHWOHWUUUUH!!!!!! *THUD*

i'm ALWAYS laughing from this one

So he's passing the alien version of a driver's test. This is so adorable
How is this like the alien version of a driver’s test

3:37 how can he crack his knuckles without even moving his arms?🤨
Special effects just fascinate me sometimes
2:05 sans fight i know undertale is "dead" but i couldn't resist
How is the guy still sleeping after so many falls?!?!
This explains why I wake up and fall into a giant crater every morning.
Ahhhh the classic Wilhelm Scream
literally love this short
my classroom watched this
For what? Movie day or an assignment
4:27 XD I died!
3:31 and 3:38 He was thinking "You stay right there. Let me handle this"

H good eye!
H I never noticed that, for 13 years, I never noticed that
You are a genius
H Also I wonder if the human was that same baby from Tin Toy
It's been freakin 12 years since u watched this short how have I never noticed that good eye.
The big alien looks like jabba the hutt
I miss the golden age of Pixar.
Me too.
THAT WAS LITERALLY AMAZING LOL LOL LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
4:57 Wilhelm Scream 😂🤣
Maybe this is why I sometimes get random bruises and cuts when I wake up...
4:05 so cute o3o
