It is brilliant! Christofer Lee as one of my favourite Discworld characters, the score is awesome and the story is superbly adapted. Thanks for uploading!
Holy shit that climax was awesome. Death turning into fucking ghost rider, screaming "Oh bugger" rocking the hell out of a magic guitar (literally) and ending it all with THE BEST ONE-LINER. I love this mini-series.
Now that I've seen the Reaper man promo, the Wryde Sisters movie, and Soul music t.v mini-series, it makes me incredibly sad that things didn't go farther then this when it came to animating Discworld stuff. Such missed opportunities.
and if they were terrible dogshit, it would ruin the experience of searching the internet, and finding animated discworld. Don't fall for monkey paw shit.
Nobody seems to mention this, but I was very impressed with Andy Hockley's singing voice... assuming the same actor provided both the speaking part and the songs for "Buddy." He had a good range and style, and I certainly wouldn't have thrown him out of the recording studio...
Totally awesome! Haven't seen it in a few years so I'm glad I decided to watch it again.... Kinda wish they'd made more like this and Wyrd Sisters.... or even expanded on the promo video!
He's the hero in the Death series (alongside Susan, who does most of the legwork), but in most other books he's usually relegated to cameos. He tends to follow Sam Vimes and Rincewind a lot, because they're constantly having near-death experiences, so he has to have near-them experiences too.
Overall, not a bad adaptation. Of course, the animation is pretty outdated right now but the voice acting is stellar and I think most character designs are quite neat as well. My only major points of criticism are the designs of Rat Death and the trolls. Rat Death just looks a bit wrong because they didn't give him a proper rat skull. It's missing the first thing everyone would know how to recognize rodent skulls with. The trolls are the worst offenders because they look too mechanical, more like robots than creatures of living rock. It's especially noticeable at the arms and hands. I'm also not sure why they chose to give Lias/Cliff a southern US accent. Most trolls in Ankh-Morpork have immigrated from Uberwald and thus a german or eastern european accent would be more fitting. I also must say that it seems like a bit of an odd choice to go for Soul Music without having adapted Mort first.
I thought Death was going to kill the music by changing the genre, thereby corrupting it beyond recognition. You know, by playing Crazy Frog or something. 😆
Christopher Lee saying Oh Bugger is so worth watching over and over again
Definitely!
Just love how simple it was. Turns the corner oh bugger
Yes
Death riding a motorcycle and playing the guitar... The two best scenes I've ever seen in my life.

I'm now convinced every rock concert should begin with a harp solo.

Sir Christopher Lee was brilliant as Death
Thank you Father Terry, your whole Discworld-spirits remains with us...
and you sit by the right hand of GOD ...
and laugh at us ! :)
R.I.P Terry, you'll be sorely missed, thanks for being ace! :(
The ending was so sweet.
Had no idea this existed. Read several of the books. Enjoyed this very much.
This might be the greatest mushroom tripp ever
He finally calls himself Grandad

There’s a new Cohen the Barbarian story in the pipes: Troll Bridge

Well they do have the live action films, Going Postal was alright.

Dog damn I miss Chris lee!
Sure a nice ride to see this story
Excellent story. Love all the shout outs, characters, and plot this story had.
6:31 I love Mustrum Ridcully "No.... I don't think so" ZAP :3
Low key one of the best characters.
“Wake up! Wake -“ *smack*
Gave me a giggle
I really enjoyed this!!!!
19:21 LOL Best scene ever.
Death playing an electric guitar.
Even more epic
Thank you lots for uploading this.

This trap still works)
13:08 A _T R I V M P H_
Nice, Terry, very nice!
theres a price to becoming immortal.
The Music: You can't kill me!
Death: HOLD! MY! BEER!
Like I said in like the second part. Anythig with Death in it usually ends up with a happy ending for Someone. (Death as in the king life and death)
This episode's lesson... $10,000 is worth your life
Best character of all time... Death X33
22:36 Death is such a snarky grandpa. 😆
death is the only character in every discworld novel
why have you got a duck on your head?
what duck?
ohhhh

20:00 Death notes
Love it !
great movie
19:23
Anyone reminded slightly of Rock and Rule?
Very slightly, but yes.
GNU Terry Pratchett
In Terry Pratchett's Discworld Death is the hero of the story am I right.
He's the hero in the Death series (alongside Susan, who does most of the legwork), but in most other books he's usually relegated to cameos. He tends to follow Sam Vimes and Rincewind a lot, because they're constantly having near-death experiences, so he has to have near-them experiences too.
17:38
that: "oh, blast!"
almost sounds like "oh, do, NOT!"
to me
yep hes in all of those too

great mini series/movie, but will say it could have been better if it had more "cowbell"
14:07 "Noooooo Starchy's mid-life crisis!:
Check out "Good Omens"
It's called Sioni Bod Da and it's on the soundtrack!
19:55 Gods, that is awesome
The muse is a vampire
14:11 So metal.
oh Bugger *crash*
H E R M O N I C A
Did they ever release the songs from this mini series in a playable format?
There's a list of all the music here on UA-cam. Just search discworld soul music soundtrack
Yes that's a good question... what IS the Dean doing?!
13:51 which bit was he sitting on!? 0.0
I thought Death was going to kill the music by changing the genre, thereby corrupting it beyond recognition.
You know, by playing Crazy Frog or something. 😆
But should they?
Apart from Wintersmith.
not in "Snuff!"
:)
24 seconds.
