Louis Theroux is a British documentary maker whose made many documentarys about some of the most dangerous places/groups in the world such as neo-Nazis, the KKK, and the Westboro Baptist Church. He is known for being extremely friendly,remaining constant eye contact, and never getting intimidated in even the most dangerous situations.
When he was visiting the Neo-Nazis and they were like "Are you Jewish" and he just maintained eye contact and responded to the effect of "I hope you won't mind if I don't answer that." And when they kept asking "What would happen if I was?" And then he continued to refuse to confirm or deny. Stone faced.
I once overheard a bartender at a gay bar say "you haven't seen horny until you see a 20 something year old burnout staring at a guy in his 40s talking about trains"
Get Louis was such a dilemma for me at first, my love of his amazing music and incredible comedy were at war with the fact that it was the exact kind of existential horror that makes me lose sleep at night. After a few rewatches though I got over it and now it's just a really funny bop
It seems like he's a little over the top when "Chris Pratt does that thing with his hands" but once you see the movie you realize he's actually undersold how often that happens. If I didn't know it was supposed to be serious I'd think that were going for the laugh with just how often someone throws up their hand as if it's some kind of dinosaur shield that all dinosaurs inherently understand and back down from.
I love how in Flirt (with your dad) Tom Cardy is basically trying to gaslight us into thinking that everyone's friend's dad flirts with his son's friend.
Tom mentioned in a comment on Jurassic World 12 that scientists in the near future watched Jurassic World 7 and decided not to build robots with penises as to avoid the tragic outcomes of that movie. The AI robot they produce loses faith with humanity after seeing dick pics online and decided to wipe out the human race. That film is lore for his Artificial Intelligence song
I'm a little surprised that the Louis Theroux song didn't work for you. I've never heard of him either, but the mannerisms and voice that Tom adopts for him are so distinct that being able to... tell that it WOULD be funny if I understood the reference is somehow enough for me? Especially considering the lines where he acknowledges how niche the reference is, which feels like it brings me in on the joke. Making a mild mannered documentation into an omnipotent soul-stealer is also a perfectly ridiculous concept.
True, but I didn't even know he was a documentarian, and I felt like I was missing *more* because I didn't know who he was. It's a fine line, to be sure, but that's how it felt for me at least.
Tom Cardy's Jurassic Park is legitimately one of the funniest music productions of my lifetime. It beats fucking Dr. Demento's features and those are canon. Gruberman is a legend and this actually tops it. Tom fucking Cardy killing it.
Your enthusiasm about dissecting the comedy in music and pure joy and amusement when something funny lands is infectious, I always find myself laughing along with you. (Also loved the Game Grumps ref, I adore those guys haha.) Liked and subscribed, you're so funny and wholesome
You really should get to know Louis Theroux. His incredibly dry British attitude contrasts wonderfully with the extreme subject matter. He almost seems like a parody of a British documentarian at first. It's good stuff.
Technically Jurassic World 10 is Jurassic Park 13 as World 1 is the fourth Park, so "Jurassic Park 12: It's Dino time!" is the alternate title of Jurassic World 9
The real crack up is that the little brother in 'Flirt'... looks like the same kid from 'Monster Truck'. There... There's lore, Ian... LORE. O_O Jurassic Park is like the Resident Evil games, at this point; The only viable reaction is 'Is this necessary?' Or 'Well, it WAS pretty cool...' ... ... ... Looking forward to JW13, when they elect a dinosaur president. :v If you've ever been stuck with a college Ethics or Sociology class, you've at least been assigned one Louis Theroux documentary or segment. *I'm not saying you should* (they're slightly horrifying), but he's, um, he's a pretty brave guy and probably one of the only sources of what went on in alt-right groups before the cresting dawn of our current, social-media-laced internet. :|
Doesn't matter that it's called Jurassic Park 12. Tom Cardy isn't constrained by such things as the name he gives his own song or general song structure. When the song is over it's over. How does he do it?
Honestly I'm kinda surprised you don't do more DanBull. He has some great serious songs, but he's also usually a lot heavier on the comedy side of things as well. There's his running gag of being allergic to broccoli resulting in the broccoli bars trilogy, he does memey songs about forgetting passwords or something like that, and occasionally you'll get songs like his FallGuys rap, which I describe as the mental breakdown of Dan set to a catchy background
I've actually reacted to his Password song, as well as his Obi Wan rap and his Evil Genius 2 song. I have his Brocalli Bars videos in a playlist of things to react to already as well, just haven't gotten to them yet.
the important thing about the Louis Theroux song is that the song isn't really about Louis Theroux; the song is about someone complaining to Tom Cardy that his songs are too niche a content, and no one will like them, so he made on that was hyper niche and people still liked it. Tom Cardy makes songs not on subjects like Louis Theroux because he goes 'man, he's a cool guy' but he makes songs on things like 'this asshole does X today' or 'X happened today and urgh it is driving me nuts' and blows off steam through music.
I have to disagree with your point about the Louis song being too niche. I didn't know who he was on my first viewing either and it had no negative effects on my personal listening experience. There were enough context clues in the song itself for me at least to not have ant problem following along with the jokes. That's just me though, I can't speak for other peoples' experiences.
- Hey! Does your dad talk about WW2 as well? - At the end of the war in '45, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service (aka IJNAS) used actual guided missiles... a short range fighter-jet, the Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka, loaded with explosives (1200kg) and fuel, "guided" by an onboard young and ambitious kamikaze pilot, who was trained to steer the plane into ships from the Allied forces. These fighters were dropped from a carrier plane, then they glided towards enemy ships before turning on their jet engines... sorry. What I wanted to say is: No. Not really.
Hey ian, some of his shorts are also very good, with my personal favorites being:"may the 4th be with you" (but it is somewhat crude) and "Adventures of smokin joe rude boy"
Just my highly personal opinion, I think I would enjoy more to see your reaction watching the clip *without* pausing first, and *then* hear your thoughts, perhaps while you are going through the video again while pausing. Maybe that's just me though, thanks for the content anyway! :)
Yeah, I was worried how if anyone wasn't familar with Louis that the last one wouldn't work, but at least we can agree that the Jurassic Park one was amazing. EDIT: the Rap is on one of his things he recorded some rap lyrics in a very dry English accent and it's become memed.

@@darksunrise957he was??? 😮😮
@@darksunrise957HE MADE THAT SONG???
@@vintage-radiohe didn't make it, but he famously performed it.

😅😂🤣
Did… did you just reword a tumblr post and claim it happened to you?
Get Louis was such a dilemma for me at first, my love of his amazing music and incredible comedy were at war with the fact that it was the exact kind of existential horror that makes me lose sleep at night. After a few rewatches though I got over it and now it's just a really funny bop
You got Louis.
Or did Louis get you?
It seems like he's a little over the top when "Chris Pratt does that thing with his hands" but once you see the movie you realize he's actually undersold how often that happens. If I didn't know it was supposed to be serious I'd think that were going for the laugh with just how often someone throws up their hand as if it's some kind of dinosaur shield that all dinosaurs inherently understand and back down from.

The “get Louis” song is actually quite similar to another of his called “time to buy” which he made for an Australian news show called The Feed
Yep, it's on UA-cam, and I've gotta go watch it again.
I'm a little surprised that the Louis Theroux song didn't work for you.

I work retail as a cashier. The soulless staring into the abyss of someone's soul will frighten them to their very core.
the flirt with your dad song is about the friend that befriends your dad and ends up hanging out with him more than you :D
Glad you're feeling better, good to see you back!
Another banger Ian, as per usual
The real crack up is that the little brother in 'Flirt'... looks like the same kid from 'Monster Truck'. There... There's lore, Ian... LORE. O_O
Jurassic Park is like the Resident Evil games, at this point; The only viable reaction is 'Is this necessary?' Or 'Well, it WAS pretty cool...' ... ... ... Looking forward to JW13, when they elect a dinosaur president. :v

Lol I was just thinking "Arin and Danny would love this song" right before you said "Game Grumps would love this song". Great minds and whatnot.
The Dinosaur one made me laugh HARD!! 😝💖🦖
Thank you for reacting to these! I think it might be a little short, but you should react to his song Smokin Joe. It’s one of my recent favorites
I've seen it, since it's a short one. Too short to react to, sadly. But it is great!
@@Insaneian the full version just came out!
@@DasFlauschy my reaction to it is already up on my Patreon! It'll be up on my channel on Friday!
Get Louis was my introduction to Tom Cardy and I love it XD
Hello, my good human. A pleasure to see you reacting to Tom Cardy again. Tom Cardy is quite funny.
glad to hear you saw Weird Al! I went to my first Al concert when he came through Calgary this year. Quite the experience!
This was my 26th and 27th times seeing him live!
We need a collab from tom cardy and game grumps for Kissing your Dad
Hardcore agree!
so glad i am loius now!

I've been looking forward towards tihs.

You are mentioned in the outro of stupendium's new song!
Wha, really? Neat!
Reaction next week!
The assignment’s due by Monday according to the video
But seriously you were expressed referenced by name
@@jmurray1110 oh good. A due date. 😅
Tom Cardy should be knighted and write one song with Jonathan Coulton.
- Hey! Does your dad talk about WW2 as well?
- At the end of the war in '45, the Imperial Japanese Navy Air Service (aka IJNAS) used actual guided missiles... a short range fighter-jet, the Yokosuka MXY-7 Ohka, loaded with explosives (1200kg) and fuel, "guided" by an onboard young and ambitious kamikaze pilot, who was trained to steer the plane into ships from the Allied forces.

First?
Edit: Cool, the episode was amazing and I’m glad that I was one of the first non patrons to see it
Actually, yes! Congratulations on your achievement! :))))))))))))
I was absolutely was hoping for a game grumps refrence
The first one was so relatable
Ohno! Ian is going to fail the stupendous assignment he's been given today!
Well...sort of. (My reaction will be up next Friday, and earlier on Patreon)
Funny thing i just realized is that he put the trademark logo next to dinosaur planet.
30:23 bo burnham 5 years spotted
Stupendous is expecting the reaction to his new song before Monday just a heads up
React to Asdfmovie 1-14 or The Muffin Song by Tomska next, both are great
Ian did you know that stupes uploaded a song today?
I didn't until after I uploaded mine! Mu reaction to their new one will be up next Friday (or earlier on my Patreon)!
Something tells me you can still stretch out a 30 second song to a full 20 minutes.... @ 11:32
The stupendium has a new song called can't teach this and I'm just dying to have you react to it
I'm sure 😏 Thanks! (check the comments, several folks have mentioned it)
Ok
The nicher the better
If you haven't already can you react to tge "if lugi mansion had lyrics" 1 through 3 series its realy funny.
From Brentalfloss? If so I've probably already seen it...tho I don't remember them, so...maybe?
Aussies are made different. lol
It's so hard to listen to tom cardy and not smile.
Missed stupendium by an hour
Hey ian, some of his shorts are also very good, with my personal favorites being:"may the 4th be with you" (but it is somewhat crude) and "Adventures of smokin joe rude boy"
I agree that they are great, there's just not a lot to react to in such a short space. I've seen smoking Joe and it's hilarious!
BTW insaneian stupendium has a new song for you
I'm aware. Several folks have told me here in the comments. 😅 thanks!
Please react to Nick Lutsko's comedy music! You have to watch them in order though, it's a whole saga
Which one would you recommend I start with, then?
@@Insaneian ua-cam.com/play/PL2F0Tp-fvGZwDs0e2n4FPcTA8ko-57eCJ.html here's the full playlist!
(you also don't have to watch the full 50 minute one, by the way. not a song lol)
react to the new song hey i don't work here
It's coming this week...assuming the upload works.
And say "please" next time.
do you remember
the 11th night of september
Just my highly personal opinion, I think I would enjoy more to see your reaction watching the clip *without* pausing first, and *then* hear your thoughts, perhaps while you are going through the video again while pausing. Maybe that's just me though, thanks for the content anyway! :)
