Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of year

Olden times and ancient rhymes
Of love and dreams to share

And joyful memories there

Families drawing near
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year

Rudolph smoking and then becoming Santa's getaway driver after his murders is something I never imagined I'd ever see in LEGO
Word😂
I didn't even see that lmao
He’s also swearing
Ikr
Specifically in Lego?
I’ve always found the line “he sees you when you’re sleeping”creepy but you took it to another level.
Yeah especially cause hes black now
@@M3rk420 opposite santa
yeah that’s just fucked up

Pulls up lego computer and opens search history
As a trumpet player, Santa’s annual breakdown is the best gig I get all year.
Jesus loves you!!!
Same here! Although the complementary cookies really make the gif worth it.
👍
Nice pfp
@@Lemon-Planner As an internet user, do so.
Now I am just imagining Santa as less a human who is any race, and more as a changeling type creature who just steals faces whenever they feel like it.
I mean, a full workforce composed of fae from the winter court would probably amount to a patriarch of similar origin
Changeling Santa!!!
Might morphin Santa
santa claus the skinwalker
Santa claus is a non binary icon
I can tell it took Forest a lot of restraint to not show Santa brutally dunking the child 6 feet under. Also the name drop of the Guardians at the end is such a damn throwback holy shit.
What's it a throwback too
@@xblproductions5945 I think the movie with Jack Frost
@@superjumpbros64 Yea.

1:32 this shot felt like it was straight outta the Lego Movie. Forrest and his crew most literally NEVER disappoint. Happy Holidays yall!
2:08 as well
It feels much better than the Lego movie imo since that was all computer animated and this is all genuine stop motion with real sets that he meticulously built brick by brick
@@DaveMyDude you expect them to make a whole 2 hour stop motion movie
@@LandoBando-pj5ox yes, this was 6 minutes and having a large team of people, it could be done. How many minutes has Forrest done this year alone? Quite a few.
4:50 The outside, and the way the wind blows snow inside the house, are also just amazing. But the extra work for the shot at 5:37 is also so worth it. It is such a difficult approach to do right with such a big Camera and also small set. But him also looking fatter in contrast to the Lego friends Figure is also a great detail.
Absolutely love what he does. He has always been a big inspiration. I wish him, his film crew and family the absolute best. He's a mad lad.
An entire 2 minutes dedicated to blackface Santa from Forrest is the greatest Christmas present I could've imagined.
Is it really blackface if one can change ethnicity on demand?
@@Mate397 if it’s not their original form, this yes
@@justinjr715 But it isn't an externally applied skin darkening effect, it's the person's very skin that changes.
I find these kinds of discussions will always get a little weird or shaky when it comes to ethereal figures that can have any appearance that either they want or the person seeing them dictates. The best thing to do is always just gonna be to basically not question the magic.
It's like if god's appearance changes to be more relatable for whoever is looking upon them or if they just want to present their appearance that way. If someone really wanted to stretch it they could call it blackface and even label god as a racist. Can't imagine someone going that far cause it's god but that's besides the point. This can really apply to every ethereal, mythical, and fictional character that we have the ability to interpret in our own ways. Imo best thing to do would be to just not force logic into it.
There are some people who maybe find it hard to believe in characters or understand them so making a character be more relatable to them can sometimes help that. Though it may not always work. It's like if you were born with empathy or not: either you see something for it's value as a concept or thought within it's good will, morals, and actions or you don't and you only see it's value when defined by it's appearance.
(warning: this is not scientifically proven, this is all just a basic explanation of a much more complex subject matter coming out the mind of a very confusing man for most) If you understand what I was getting at then good on you.
Agreed
Alyssa's discount Canadian accent is probably the best thing about this next to the production
no no, as a canadian that is exactly how we sound
I had absolutely no idea that was supposed to be a Canadian accent
That was Canadian?!
Canadians trying to convince the world were interesting people:
@@awesome346 thank you 🙏
Well this was a bit weird. This went from a weird race related joke, to Forest showing off his Santa singing voice again, to some serious lore stuff. Quite the tonal whiplash for my walnut sized brain.
I would like to think my brain is normal sized but this comment is starting to make me think otherwise...
@@birds4breakfast870 well I-I-I dont know i say thats average size
NO WAY ITS STEG OH SORE US FROM PALIN TOLGY
It does capture the LEGO humor well though, albeit with a bit more dark twist to it
Why did I just read this in Mat Pats voice lol I miss Mat Pat 😢
I think this is the highest quality animation you've put out. The sets, lighting, cinematography, and animation are sublime
For me it's this and the first half of the TMNT video
id say the actual animation in this one goes waaay less hard then something like cap vs zombies 2. like the shots in this one is mostly one person moving their arms.
The stop motion is so smooth I genuinely could not tell if it was digital, because it looks completely photorealistic, but is animated so well it moves like a render with slight imperfections to imitate stop motion.
This is legit one of the funniest lego animations of all time 🤣
Chad Rudolph 💪💪💪
Fax
Yep
Ayeeee Keshen!!
It’s always good to hear your voice in a new Forrest vid Keshen
My man really made 2 minutes of santa doing blackface, to then a cover of santa is coming to town, and finish it up with some santa lore at the end
Holy crap I love this channel
Every year that passes as you get older the Santa voice just gets better
Santa Clause is coming to town!!
@@kartoffelchip4490 ayo
I’m starting to lose faith in the story that parents are the ones who get all of my presents and place them under the tree
1:15 STRAIGHT LEGO ARMS?!
How can this level of animation be possible.
They're from a company called Crazy Bricks
@@MachinexMinifigs dude thank you so much!! I found the link.
@@MachinexMinifigs of course they got to use the cheap version
This definitely explains why Santa gives proportionally cheaper gifts to kids with less money
I was hoping there would be a choir of Santas from different ethnicities. Also I burst out laughing seeing the reindeer hovering above the house like helicopters.
EDIT: Stop liking, it’s at 420
Where was this Santa when Joker needed him?!
killing vikings
Fighting in Nam
5:15 This scene is amazing. At first you think it’s going to be another comedic scene like before, then the tone shifts drastically and there’s this lurking, uneasy tension in the air as Santa hints at this restless evil lurking(my prediction is Kramus). The references to the Rise of the Guardians is really fun, it hints at a larger world, and sets up this lurking evil in the background that you now know they’re going to have to confront eventually. It’s great. Bravo Forest
10 years ago I thought that theres no way Forrest could top what he put out. I was dead wrong, every year he makes something better and it does not seem to stop. Huge props man, you really deserve the success.

"I'm fucking Santa Claus. I can be whatever color I want!"
Best quote of 2022! Merry Christmas 😂
No matter how old I get I will always enjoy a forrestfire video
True dat

Man I've been watching your stop motions for the majority of my life I just wanna thank you for maturing and making content this funny. It's rare a creator can own a space like you have for years, truly inspiring.
Santa: *Turns off his Body Camera*
I swear, Santa has got to be one of the best characters in the FF verse 😂😂😂
4:53 you remembered Mr. Freeze as his son!!!! Great detail I love it.
Yoooo, great catch! That's awesome!!!
Lmao
OMG, what a call back.
I’m very happy that they kept that family picture with Mr Freeze in the background.
Also ‘he?’ He who?
Kranpus? The grinch?
It's a cover of a pre existing song in wich "he" was referring to Santa
-R/wooosh-
It’s crazy to me that I’ve been watching this channel for more than 10 years and the animation quality has just exploded! Love the stuff dude!
11 motnsh lalte but
2:34 “I’m gonna *come-“*
let’s stop you there. nuh uh.
"i killed a little black kid fucking go" holy shit my sides
@1:25 blackface Santa definitely uses the N-word, didn’t even attempt to lie 😂😂😂😂😂
I really hope there's more parts to this because I'm actually kinda intrigued with how it ended and I really wanna see how it continues. Great job as always, Forrest! I never get tired of your stop motions. They were always my favorite back when I was a little kid and they still are.
2:40 damn the trumpets hit hard in this song
The music part killed me 😂 This was an amazing Christmas special. Another amazing video. Merry Christmas 🎄
changing color is a very rare genic trait
It’s amazing how his first animations went from shot to this absolute beauty! It’s scary how good this is. Keep it up my guy! 🔥🔥🔥
I loved every moment of this. Your animation still gets me sometimes. I can’t stop and rewind just to see how cool it is.
Never underestimate Santa Claus! Also that musical at the end was absolutely phenomenal! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Not to mention the smooth animation! Happy holidays! 🎄
At the end? It was the most and in the middle of the video
He missed the third act
Wasn’t the third part an epilogue?
Merry christmas
I’m gonna make it officially canon that Rudolph smokes cigars and joints just for the fuck of it.
Never stop this kind of humor. Your videos bring me back to a time where you could do whatever you want on UA-cam. Happy holidays to you and your family, Forrest!
1:04 that little detail of the plate breaking into pieces is great.
5:22 Not me out here genuinely thinking he said Krampus had "da minion" at first
Man, I haven’t watched your channel in years. I definitely didn’t expect content like this after all of this time, but I’m definitely not disappointed about it lol
December 1st be like:
2:34
lmao
You can hear him holding back laughter
He always comes back
The quality of the stop motion and cinematography is so impressive 👏🏻
Not to be an um actually guy but this is 3D
Forest is not only the best Batman, but also the best Santa. Who woulda thought? This was awesome! Merry Christmas Forest 🎄🎄
3:20 Oh my God. How cute is that?
5:09 I died XD
Always a treat to get a yearly run in with Forrest's unreasonably great Santa voice, Happy Holidays guys!
Forrest makes the best brickfilms on UA-cam. No take backs.
Naw😂 1:54
Lmao
@@cooldawggaming1802 oh hey 👋
@@501stStopMotions hi
I’ve loved these videos since 2010, and I gotta say, they keep getting better every year
5:51 Jesus Christ, was he talking about the possible return of HANUKKAH HARRY!??!?!
Never fails to amaze me, I can barely get motivated to animate a minute of work 😂
Ove been watching this channel since I was in middle school now I'm a 22 year old slightly alcoholic electrician and to see the bloom of overall quality from something done space tums after school to a full cinematic skit, musical number and after video lore, to call this TV quality would be a insult, they would cut corners
I’m so glad you didn’t forget about Mr.Freeze being their kid💀, the family photo in the back was hilarious
Dang Santa, that's cold, even for you. But wow, this is freaking hilarious. Also, the animation is fantastic! I almost thought this was animated in blender.
In the past years he's murdered a bunch of armed goons, beat Riddler to death, scared the absolute life out of a lady and her husband just for not believing in him.
This is totally in character
I've been watching you for like 12 years & you're still out doing yourself with the stop motion! MERRY CHRISTMAS
I love how the (Mr. Freeze is Santa son) reference from the old Christmas special is there at 4:56 but I thought that Santa didn’t know that he had a son though, lol.
That kid is smarter than most politicians.
Should've expounded more on the Black Santa part. This felt incomplete. 💯
Great work! Keep up the hard work! Can't wait to see the next one! I'm so pumped for it!
Lego Santa is Ruth-less and i love it
Probably the best stop motion I've ever seen anyone make with Lego
So much effort, absolutely incredible animation, a masterpiece
I love the little family photo with Mr. Freeze in the background, such a good callback lol
The way he turn it into coal is flawless, also the sonic boom noise is a very good touch
I’m loving this !!!! I love the “back in my day” bit.
love the details to the sets, even the mr freeze callback, and your singing goes hard despite the video being a bit disturbing lmao
Fantastic/next level as always!!!! I can’t wait for Santa’s story to continue!! I hope the DC characters show up in Santa’s next episode!!
Y’all have such an eclectic and eccentric set of skills. It is a joyride watching these videos
i love the use of the crazy arms
This just got me in the holiday spirit ❄️
Been watching your videos since I was a kid. I’m now 22. Love it man. Remember the old Batman stop motion you’d do back in the day, as well as showing how you do your stop motion.
Better Santa murder movie than Violent Night
Amazing, Im still getting surprised with your animation it's honestly amazing
5:23 *HOLY FUCK HOLY FUCK ITS HAPPENING EVERYONE KRAMPUS V THE SAINT IS COMING 2024 LFGGFGGGG*
Best Christmas present ever!! And that Santa voice is just👌
First time I’ve heard of this channel, first video I’ve watched and I’m 100% subbed. That was phenomenally well made, can only imagine the hours put in.
Ok I was dying of laughter already, then we had a Santa musical and I lost it 😂😂😂😂
Like this channel has been there basically all my life and it's never stopped being absolutely hilarious 🤣
Can't wait for next year to see lego Santa again
i’m so glad i found this chanel again. i used to watch this chanel a loooong time ago when i was a kid and it’s amazing how well the quality has improved. good job man your videos are hilarious
This is a wonderful treat. I love it. Will watch it every year it's available!
thats great as usual, i love the use of the bent and straight arms, really adds a lot of flexibility
This is absolutely incredible. You are a very talented LEGO animator. I am also a stop motion animator and I hope to one day be as good as you. Keep making awesome stuff!!!
Animation and choreography were absolutely beautiful!
What an masterpiece. lmao
Enjoyed every second of it, it's so well made!
I grew up watching Forrest’s content and I can’t wait for the next installation in his Batman series!
2:45
Charlie Brown?
I was thinking the same thing lol
This channel upped its production value since 13 years ago
I remember when I was like 12 and I used too love watching you, I’m 20 years old and I can’t believe you’re still around… you give me an inspiration that I can follow my passion no matter what. May god be with you 🙏🏽
I thought it was over after this part 2:06
LET'S GOOO THIS MAN NEVER DISAPPOINTS 🔥vids as always
Lol, you’ve done again forrest!! Delivered another funny lego vid, these never get old!!!
Alyssa’s Canadian accent caught me off guard lol
Despite everything this is still so freakin well made, I wonder how long this took like damn it's impressive
The pauses after Santa says “coming” 💀
Skulls
