- In this video we explain everything we know about the Smoker oil tanker in Waterworld, known as the Deez (Dez), from how the ship was brought to life through the film's production, to where it fits in the greater Waterworld lore, to what happened to the miniature models after the film was finished.

Wow, I would have never guessed Waterworld had such a dedicated fanbase.
Haha! Yep, we are out here!
It's not that it was a bad movie, it just has waaaay too many plot holes and improbable story elements that really hurt the story. It's a fun popcorn movie and you can't put too much thought into "why something is", otherwise you start to find the problems with the movie. Just take it for what it is, an action movie.
honestly most of us are pissed there hasn't been a good game on it
The movie might not be so popular but the production of the movie is a popular topic among movie buffs
The televised version is also different from the one you get on DVD. I remember watching this movie for the first time when I was a teenager, and there were several scenes in it that are not in the DVD version. One in particular is that at the end of the TV version the woman gave the mutant guy the name Odysseus.
Hell yes, more Waterworld! This movie isn't perfect, but the world-building fascinated me ever since I saw it.
100% agree! The movie has its flaws, but I love universe it builds.
jack black is the sea plane pilot.
@@imablock16 Yeah lol, I love pointing that out to people
@@imablock16 that sounds like a thing nick mullen would say in cum town.
@@paulcarmi8130 hell no. Adam is "Tidbit." Nick would shit on him for saying it, though!
I found the Depth Gauge Guy to be the most fascinating character while watching this as a kid. I remember as a kid just thinking this guy has lived his whole life on that little dinghy just measuring oil.
Haha, yeah, he caught my imagination as a kid too! I would say the move is at its best when it gives you these little glimpse of the day-to-day life of the people in Waterworld. It's good world building I think!
I was just thinking about his death yesterday.
"Oh thank God."
@@Flint-Dibble-the-Don I got fired from a job I hated once. Somehow I remembered this in the meeting and just blurted that line out.
i saw this movie when i was 9 years old, i thought the old guy was the real captain and the bad guys put him inside as a punishment.
@@mejestic124 that's awesome head cannon even if it doesn't fit the timeline!
Ha ! That brings back memories. I was the crew chief in charge if all the deck details. The picture of the guy making the pattern for the barnacles is me! So amazing to see such love for that film . It was the last hurrah for us all at SVSI. Thanks for posting this.
One of the legends has come and blessed this video.
May your days be many and your debts few, fella.
By the way, who came up with the name for the ship?
Wow, no kidding?! Thank you for your comment and helping bring Waterworld to life! It is an honor to know you have watched this video!
Kudos! It was really impressive work. Practical effects and mi iatjres used to fascinate me as a kid.
Good job! I've loved this movie since it first came out and never understood all of the negative reactions to it. It's just an all around fun movie that should have had a sequel.
That's awesome, you guys did a great job, without the set design and practical effects this movie wouldn't be nearly as cool as it was. There was so much detail put into both the sets and the miniatures, every time I watch it I notice something new.
I gotta say that line the Human Depth Guage delivers when he sees the flare ALWAYS makes me laugh. One of the funniest single lines in all of cinema.
Haha, yeah totally! It's a perfectly delivery coupled with perfect editing.
Holy crap 41 minutes about the Deez, that must've taken a ton of work. Great job!
Thank you Mad Max Bible! As always, you're an inspiration!
But... its the valDEZ not deez... no?
@thecamocampaindude5167 it's Deez.... DEEZ NUTS
The Deacon was a man of taste. Rembrandt! What a surprise!
Haha! Yeah, I love how in the novelization, writer Max Allan Collins, uses imagery of both high and low culture to describe interior of the Deez!
One of the food stuffs that you missed in one shot were containers of peanuts.
They called them Deez Nuts.
That was the only thing i could think about as he constantly said "Deez"
I have gotten a lot of deez nuts comments, but I got to say, this one is pretty cleaver!
Gottem!
This man has made 51 videos, all of them about Waterworld. I am impressed by the dedication
Thank you! More to come too!
Iv always been interested in small details of this movie
Once again, really hope the Waterworld TV series producer will invite you to the writers team. As for the Deez, the red "no smoking" sign was also a good one for me.
Yes! The "No Smoking" sign is such a great little detail!
There's a tv series?
@@mrfancypanzer549 i really hope so..
i would be afraid it would go the same way as The Dark Crystal..
to the writers team or on the writers team? At least they would have people who proof read for him
it's the accumulation of all the little world building things like "no smoking" still being barely visible to remind you of the ships previous life that really help the idea that this is our world but now truly ruined really sink in for me as a young person watching this movie when it came out. truly awesome stuff
I always thought Waterworld would make a great open world, or open water MMO. Abandoned ships to explore for items. Floating trade towns and settlements and even underwater areas you can eventually reach, and much much more. The ultimate goal being dry land. I'd play that.
I'd play that too! I think it's a testament to the film's world building we could imagine an entire mmo inspired by it!
Accumulate an army of like minded scavengers and raid atolls. Set your jet ski on fire and launch it into a wall. Annihilate boats with a quad 50.
Great idea!
@@scottgalbraith7461 And we could virtually pee into a filtration device for water!
@@b.p.879 not super playable, but sure we could include it if you want.
Thing is that a Waterworld remake/reimagining would work, but it would be without the Costner and the Smokers. Focusing more on the atollers and their relationship to the muto's or focus on a grown up Enola and a new raider society, called something like Predator Atollers or just Predtoller for short.
Water world is so cool, very pleased to see an entire channel dedicated to it.
Thanks Koolaid!
I never knew that the Exxon Valdez was repaired and renamed! Also, I'm glad there are people who can appreciate this movie, and the techniques used to make it, it's been one of my favorite movies from my favorite decade of movies!
Hey Jason! Yes, the story of making Waterworld is so fascinating. And there was very little behind-the-scenes footage and knowledge after the film was released, so this channel was created to help tell that story!
One of your best episodes, im so happy you spend so much time putting these videos together. It brings me a lot of joy.
I'm so glad you enjoy them! I'll keep make them as long as there's people to keep watching them!
@@TheAtoll just found your channel and subbed!
I did not expect to see a whole channel dedicated to Waterworld but it warms my heart to see so much fanwork surrounding the media.
Haha, it had to be done!
@@TheAtoll and you did good work, kind internet stranger.
Just found you and I'm in awe. I had no idea there were people as obsessed about this beautifully, perfectly, bonkers film. Amazing work!
Awesome, I'm so glad that you found us! Yes, a perfectly bonkers film! Good way of putting it.
@@TheAtoll:) and I notice I missed a part of my post. It should have said 'as obsessed as me' ;)
Looks like I guessed the population about the Dees accurately. Very nice. Also the Mariner killed an entire city of innocent people.
Ha, yeah the Mariner is pretty callus.
It’s the cruel nature of a post apocalyptic world. Us or them. Just because the deacon was dead, they wouldn’t stop harassing the Atoll. The Atoll couldn’t support the additional population. They just slowly starve to death.
Innocent people? How innocent are you, when your only source of supplies is raids on other communities? The mariner is a terrorist to the smokers. Dryland is their manifest destiny. To the mariner, all smokers are a threat either now or in the future. See the real world implications here?
I miss all the practical effects and over-the-top wardrobes from 80's and 90's movies. Good vid!
Thanks Mattimeo!
Yeah those were good times. Back when studios still had lots to work on and credit for your work wasnt automatically assigned to CGI. We used it , but as a tool in the toolbox not a gimmick or the business model that it has become.
I'm always so impressed by how much information you're able to dredge up. I remember reading the 'Making of Waterworld' book I've had since I was a kid and it barely scratches the surface compared to your deep dives.
Congrats on owning a piece of the Deez!
Wow, thank you! The Making of Waterworld book is definitely a key resource for research and writing these videos, but I try go even deeper and search out every piece of information I can find!
I never would have guessed there was an ardent and thoughtful fandom of Water world. But here we are.
Haha! we are out here! Thanks for checking out the video Tax man!
Someone has to do it.....
D E E Z N U T S
HAHA! Yep, I was waiting for someone to say that!
Every once in a while I come back to this video to refresh my Waterworld knowledge thanks to this fantastic video. If there's ever a re-edition of Waterworld you should be in charge of Blu-Ray extras. Fantastic work.
Mad Max Bible, thank you for the kind words! Greatly inspired by your work and feel our channels couple together really well! can't wait for Furiosa!
'waterworld POG series' is probably the most 90s utterance thats even possible.
Haha, I know right!? I actually have an entire video here on this channel about the Pogs and trading cards!
This movie was released when I was 13, maybe 14, either way I fell in love with Waterworld the minute mom and dad popped it in the VHS player. **yes, I'm old**
As I got older, kept watching, kept noticing new stuff. But I didn't appreciate the way Enola lays out The Mariners lore for Nord until I was an adult.
"He doesn't have a name, that way Death can't find him"
Yeah, I also always notice new little details every-time I watch the movie. Great world building in this film!
This is one of the best videos you've done yet! I've always found the Deez fascinating, and it's made me wonder just what other ships exist out there in Waterworld: perhaps there are aircraft carriers, battleships, cruise liners, or other giant craft that have been modified to become floating cities and fortresses. If they do exist, imagine how amazing it would be if they occasionally fought each other to the death, with these giant city-ships throwing everything they have at each other in an attempt to sink one another like old man-o-wars from the 1800's. I hope the upcoming TV series touches on this, as it could make for some spectacular action sequences!
Absolutely spot on! I'm positive that the TV series will give us some high seas warfare!
Well you're definitely going to find Deez nuts even more fascinating
Yes, imagine them shooting a torpedo up your twat.
You're almost at 1000 subscribers, congrats dude
So close! I'm looking forward to stepping over that milestone!
I was stationed on the USS Tarawa when this came out. I think we were in port in Manila when I saw this.
Anyway, I liked this movie a lot, but also remember everyone laughing at them having anything at all on the smoker ship. When we’d leave port we’d run out of all supplies within three weeks. Four max.
Haha, yeah, that's a nice bit of insight Sean. Waterworld is not without its potholes!
I have legit made a TTRPG based around water world and Desert punk around surviving in a pot apocalyptic desert (the sea is one). this movie was one of the few movies I had access to as a kid and I watched it and the postman about 200 times lol.
That's awesome! I also love The Postman. Maybe in a bit I will make some Postman videos as I have done a lot of research and collecting on that film as well!
The Postman is very Inspirational. It's like a lost Sid Meyer game where you rebuild the civilization using mail routes, scouts and hope.
The Ultimate city builder!
@@TheAtoll yeah a total post apoc movie and setting review thing going on here would be awesome!
@@victor_silva6142 I would pay money to play that game
@@Dies1r4e Aye. FPS and Mobile eras killed all the good game ideas...
Been waiting for an Atoll video!
Coming soon!
Another one??
@@jmanusmc2006 oh no this was before the video premiered, great video though!
Great Video mate 👏 it’s fun seeing Exxon Valdez in the film & knowing it’s history. I can’t stop laughing when Deacon worships Captain Hazelwood’s photo & seeing the ship’s name in the final plunge.
Hey BlackNovember! Yeah, I still can't believe the filmmakers got away with putting the Valdez in the film in such a sardonic way! Legendary!
Wonderful video. The Exxon Valdez in this 1990's cinematic classic captured the imagination of millions. I very much enjoyed the lore. It would indeed be an incredible honor to own a piece the ship.
Thanks Boileddenim! Yeah, I really enjoy talking about the lore in these videos.
I always loved this film, I never understood why it is considered bad. It is a bit silly but it has so many great characters and set pieces. I like the man in the pig mask firing the quad .50 cal. I would love to see a decent game made from it, perhaps a Rust mod.
Haha, it really is a bit of a silly movie. I think that's why I have always loved it!
Fallout 2 may have referenced this ship as the PMV (Poseidon [An in-universe oil company] Marine Vessel) Valdez, as an oil tanker turned into giant city. It wouldn't surprise me considering their influences from/love for the Mad Max series.
Oh wow! I did not know there was a Waterworld reference in the Fallout series!
@The Atoll yeah, it's the ship The Chosen One takes to the Oil Rig at the end of the game. Despite its namesake, it's look is based on a cargo ship called the "NEDLLOYD BAHRAIN"
@@TheAtoll of course, there was a designer who worked on the game named Valdez, but they pronounce it like the Deez in-game
Yea Deez Nuttz 😂😂😂😂😂
This film was hammered by critics but i really enjoyed it. Good to see I wasn't the only one.
Haha, you're not alone Sam! Welcome aboard!
Great episode. For the longest time, I thought the Valdez had been scrapped after the Oil Spill which would have made Waterwold Alternate History. So I looked it up and sure enough the Exxon Valdez was still operating when Waterworld came out.
Yeah, amazingly the Valdez had an entire life after the famous environmental disaster.
@@TheAtoll it was scrapped in 2010
@@RailPreserver2K Yeah totally! I think I covered that in the video...haha, I might be wrong though, I tend not to watch my own stuff.
Based on the... shall we say "lukewarm" reception waterwold got from critics and general public, i never would have guessed there was such a rich lore about it! i'm glad i've found this channel!
Hey Luis! Glad you found the channel as well!
Bladerunner got a similar response and now its a considered one of the best sci fi films of all time. A films response often suffers from the period of time when they come out. Whats popular socially, how people see the world and how they feel. How many years now have we endured zombie and post apocalyptic films. In a way Waterworld started a lot of that when that wasnt popular. If that film came out 10 or 20 years later it would have been more successful but not as unique as it was in the 90s. Back then it was action hero movies that dominated. Which WW did have but not in an environment that people were comfortable with at the time.
@@filmdesigner800 I guess an artist is never appreciated in his time. I wonder if moonfall would get the same treatment some 15-20 years from now, is such a bonkers disaster movie with heavy calls back to Halo lore. I just can't help it, love it.
I really thought I was the only one who LOVED Waterworld even if it's not the best most citizen Kane movie ever made. Really appreciate the passion you have for all this, it really shows in the quality of the final product. 11/10 subbed
Thanks Bryan! More videos to come!
Some of us had the pleasure of dancing on the set piece of this boat while at Wasteland Weekend for a number of years. Sadly, it was retired about 4 years ago if I remember it right.
Heck yeah! I am so glad you got to see it in person!
I was so happy to see her get repurposed for that. I only wish I could have seen it in person.
I always know it'll be a good day whenever The Atoll posts a new video. Keep up the good work brother!
I appreciate that Mosquito! Lots more videos planned for the future!
Didnt expect to watch a 40 minute video about Water World today, also didnt know about the comics. such a fun film.
Thanks for watching MrFancy! Glad you enjoyed it!
Brother you channel is criminally under subbed. This was one of the best "history of" videos I've seen on TH-cam and I'm a casual fan of the franchise. Top work.
Oh man! Thanks Robson Rover! I am so glad that you enjoyed the deep-dive even as a casual fan! I think that speaks what an interesting story there is here about the Deez, both during and after the production of the film.
The fact that a Waterworld fandom TH-cam channel exists gives me hope for humanity.
Like the Postman, Waterworld was Kevin's attempt to top the meta-commentary action genre and de-throne Demolition Man. Waterworld and Postman had excellent world building but studio meddling to mellow out the meta-commentary happened, ostensibly to widen the market... But who knows, maybe there were politics were at play, and some interesting ideas got de-emphasized...
The final product was still pretty damn awesome, regardless.
100 percent agree George!
Waterworld is such an interesting take in worldbuilding. There’s still a lot of room for more lore and building by fans.
After all, there’s a lot of fun to be had below the waves.
100%! I hope to do an animated fan film at some point next year!
I know it makes no sense, but I like to believe that 'Waterworld' and Mad Max are set in the same universe. Like, the majority of the world is dried up desert for MM, but the massive and deep Pacific Ocean never completely evaporated, and the survivors on ships like the Deez simply forgot nautical navigation over time, so they're forever stuck circling in the ocean raiding the atolls for survival, unable to find the old continents. Meanwhile, the land dwellers fight over the same crude oil and drinking water as usual in Mad Max.
Haha, wow, that would be a fascinating crossover!
Yes !!!
Great work as always and love going back to waterworld. My father just seen the for 1st time and loves it!!
He just became subscriber!!
That's wonderful, this is such a nice comment to read! I am so glad you and your father have a movie to share together! My father and I both share a love for Waterworld too!
I never knew I needed this channel in my life until now. Love it.
Haha! Glad you found us!
My cap is off to you, man. Haven't looked at the dates, but with 52 videos over 4 years; that's like a video a month. That's awesome.
TH-cam randomly recommended your channel. And I've always found this movie fascinating and fun.
20 minutes in, and you got another subscriber.
The style in this video reminds me of all those behind the scenes promotional specials you'd see in the 90's. Love it.
Thank you for your subscription Dylan! I know exactly what you mean by those promotional specials! I was super influenced by those as a kid.
An incredibly in depth look at the Deez/ Thanks :)
Hey Thanks PTONPC!
Deez nuts
EPIC!
Jamie! you really put the cherry on top for this video! Thanks so much again my friend!
Great video as always!
Hey John! Thanks for making it to the premiere for this one and making such great conversation in the chat!
That was amazing! I thought forever I was the only waterworld fan. I had no idea there could be a fan out there this big!
Haha! Are numbers are small but our efforts are mighty!
That is actually a pretty damn cool piece of film history to have!
This was quite longer than your usuals, but worth it! I miss the days of practical sets, miniatures, and actual explosions!
One of these days I've gotta do my own review of Waterworld and I'll definitely be mentioning this channel.
Thanks for checking out the video! I just subscribed to your channel and I am really look forward to hearing your thoughts on Waterworld!
@@TheAtoll greatly appreciate the sub! Hope my review doesn’t let you down.
Another absolutely superb video!
Thanks Forrest! Glad you enjoyed it!
I’m so happy I found a fan base this alive for such a slept on movie.
Glad you found us too!
Channels like yours, and the effort and passion you put into your videos, are the very best representations of the spirit of the Internet.
I appreciate it :')
It's nice to see, that you have accumulated so many videos that you can reference them!
It's been a great video as usual, but maybe you can insert these little info boxes to link your mentioned videos?
Did the Deez had a name in the book?
Yes, totally, I have been meaning to add those hyperlinks into the videos! Thank you for reminding me! Yes, in the book the Smoker fortress is called the Deez. The book however makes no mention of the Exxon Valdez or Captain Hazelwood, probably do to the book going to print before they had the clearance to use their likeness.
Wow I didn't know about the combined shots of the deez-camera-tilt-upwards. Thank you for another very interesting video
Hey Cedric!!! Glad you enjoyed it! I know, isn't that interesting how the married the two different shots together!?
@@TheAtoll and so seemlessly
I found more joy in this video than the actual movie.
Hahaha, Thank you!
i just rewatched this movie and its just one of those classic great/notgreat movies, like streetfighter, and im so happy i found this video, and happy to find that so many people are dedicated to it!
Glad you found the video too Jake!
Word is the Deez Nuts are something else.
Can you take a video about the deluge before the events of the movie, how some human survives and how the parents of Enola went to Mt. Everest? Thank you 🙏
Absolutely! I'm scripting it as we speak!
@@TheAtoll wow I can’t wait 😍😍
I love waterworld! I can’t believe and I’m happy to see there’s others who are so dedicated to it!
Haha! Yep, we are out here!
I remember watching this movie as a kid, I always really enjoyed it. And now this video finds its way into my recommends. Nice rundown of the production history of this element of the film, a very pleasant watch.
Thanks username! I have some other production related videos here on the channel, like the floating city video, which you may also enjoy if you feel like diving deeper!
@@TheAtoll I definitely will, thank you.
I’d like to see you do something on the economic/ mercantile bartering system that exists in waterworld, and maybe some stuff about how hydro plays a part in waterworld. I’m a clinical psychologist working in addiction medicine , and I cannot help but crack up at the absurdity of a ‘hydroholic,’ like water has no intoxicating properties or deleterious effects on your health, equating fresh water to booze is really silly, but I love it.
Yes, a video on the economics of Waterworld would be very interesting! Chits, the drifters code, the barter outpost, pure dirt, and of course, hydro! Lots to dig into!
I think hydrophilic is pretty silly as well. Definitely one of the more cheeky terms in the film!
Dude this was a amazing documentary of one of my favorite cult classics. I won't lie this was a good movie flawed but good. I wish it would be given more love than it did.
And this was a far better video than what BBC or Discovery could do.
A documentary! Wow, you flatter me Sole Breaker! Haha, thanks for checking out the video and I am glad you're enjoying the channel.
@@TheAtoll Dude that is some insane level editing it looked like a professional level Documentary from the mid to late 2000's. Better than anything most people can or would do talk about insane level of attention to detail. Your talent is very, very good.
I had absolutely no idea that were was such a large extended lore for Waterworld.
Yeah, it goes real deep!
The origin of Deez NUTS!
The Deez is nuts!
Most memorable and relatable part of the film: 22:39
"Oh thank God" -Oldie
Haha! Ture!
I actually have a can of Smeat sitting on my shelf, next to my can of 'Dinky' dog food from Mad Max 2. Although I don't have the Black Death Vodka, I do have 4 unopened packs of Black Death Cigarettes which has the exact same logo and markings And we're the cigarettes the smokers all had in the movie, I got the Smeat at a flea market around 2006 and the cigarettes at the Wisconsin State Fair around the same time although you can order the cigarettes from a internet site that sells cigarettes from around the world.
Oh no kidding, sounds like a pretty robust collection you have! For some reason I never put it together that Black Death was both a vodka brand and a cigarette brand!
I have one of the original smeat cans from the full size set. We had a few for reference and built 1:8th scale copies for the miniature of the deez.
You heard of deez🤨
I SO love this movie and SO happy I found this channel!!
So glad to hear you found the channel! Welcome aboard!
Your research and dedication to the topic are very impressive! It’s really fascinating to see someone dive so deep on a film where truly no expense was spared.
Thanks Butters! I have a ton of fun making these video and getting to know other fans!
Yes thank you. I think I can speak for all of us on the crew that we appreciate your time and dedication to documenting our work.
Do Dryland!!!!!
Yes! My next video in a few weeks will touch upon Dryland, but I hope to do a whole video dedicated to it in the future!
Deez…Deez Nuts
Haha! Someone had to go there!
Came here for this
Great video. The background music reminds me of an early 2000s RPG PC game. Kind of matches the whole nostalgia trip you just gave me :) .
Oh that's great to hear, it's exactly the sorta vibe I was going for!
I remember seeing props of the film way back in the 90s at Universal Studios, Orlando.
Yes, totally! Orlando even had one of the Trimarans used in the film on display in a lagoon. Sadly, it's not their any more and we are uncertain of its exactly location presently. Hopefully it still exists.
the deez nuts
This movie has so much nostalgia to me, I remember seeing it when I was like 5 and remembered it ever since, I have no favorite movies, but this one is pretty high on my list!
Yeah, nice to hear! It's very nostalgic for me as well (obviously, haha). I think I was around 10 years old when it came out.
i was in Hawaii the summer they were filming this. A former SEAL was running a rubber craft and took us out by there.
Amazing! Did you set foot on the Atoll??
deez nutz
Deez nuts
What a great video its great to see such a dedicated fanbase
Thanks! It's a fun movie to talk about!
Wow this channel and video was amazing. Thank you.
Your welcome! Glad you enjoyed it!
Deez what?
Deez nuts😂🤣
The Story of Cpt. Hazelwood is a tragedy. He was not even on watch, as he was taking his mandated brake. He had given clear orders, which were not followed, leading to the grounding. Then Exxon pushed him in front of the bus and the media just lapped it up.
Wow, yeah, that is fascinating. I don't think I knew the whole context of that story. I was very young when it happened.
He was probably innocent of the accident but he had multiple DUIs and his licenses had been revoked in the past
Been going to Wasteland Weekend since 2017 (Name's Sweet Justice, I run the Quest Hub) And I miss the Deez. It was such a wonderful piece of the festival and a true homage to WaterWorld. Best thing there now is the thunderdome, and of course, Quest Hub lol. (Spelled Kwest Hub at the event, cause ya know)
DEEZ NUTZ???
Haha, never gets old!
Stumbled on this channel by chance and I'm glad I did. Really cool.
Very happy to hear you found the channel, welcome aboard! The next video should be dropping in the next week or two, so be on the look out for that!
i love the background, music you have in these videos
Haha! Thanks! Sets the mood.
That was a really long way to say "look at this cool prop piece I got" 😂
Haha! Maybe that was the whole point of the video! Glad you watched all the way to the end!
This was a great video, Waterworld has always been a gulity pleasure of me.
Hey, thank you Richard! It's surprising how many people actually look back on this film fondly, but at the time of it's release it was a real punching bag with a lot of people just defaulting to "oh that movie sucks." in retrospect it's a super ambitions and imaginative film with great world building!
God, ive always loved this move, keep up the great content, i know ur gonna blow up
Will do!
I've always loved this film and I don't understand the hate it gets! This was a great video with many details I didn't know before!
Yeah, I certainly believe that Waterworld deserved better! Thanks for checking out the video!
Such a f n great report of one of my favorite movies.
One of my favs too! Haha
Sweet Joe, this was a damn good vid!
Haha, pour one out for old saint Joe! Thanks for checking out the video!
there's a channel about waterworld lore? YESSSSSSSSSSS
I got so much hate back in the day for loving this movie. Great video! 👍🏻
Haha, well now in 2023 you have finally found your people! Thanks for checking out the video!
Amazing work, my friend. 👏 Bravo.
Man, thank you so much GPtwo! I am totally flattered by your generosity!
