“POUR GAMES” Tyrants requires slaves. Animation by Patrick Smith.

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 มิ.ย. 2022
- Tyrannical wine glasses participate in a sadistic game. The game is interrupted by a self-sacrificial rebellion. After the oppressors are vanquished, a new game is quickly reconstituted among the former victims.
Another installment in the “POUR” Series, set in a metaphorical world of living wine glasses. This story explores a twisted game of power dynamics, where two masters dominate smaller subjects of the same species. The only way to end the game is to force the masters to lose interest. A stubborn individual glass, number 95, accomplishes this by initiating a self-sacrificial protest, shattering his own head with his fist. This becomes a contagion as the others see the results. They all smash their own heads gleefully and the game becomes impossible to play. Realizing this, the masters move on, no longer interested in playing the diabolical drinking game.

This animation really does seem analogous to wars in general. Whether it be a political conflict, a territorial conflict, or a corporate conflict, people who consider themselves in charge will just throw people they deem "lesser" at each other regardless of the damage, so long as it gives the "higher-ups" a chance to feel superior against one another.
great comment. thx for taking the time to watch, and to comment.
This is exactly what I was thinking
There will be no peace without war.
And do you seriously think that's how it works?
The higher-ups instill the spirit to the pawns, even if they don’t want to. Conditioning them for a conflict that they themselves didn’t cause in the first place.
Only leaving behind the broken veterans of conflicts, thrown aside with no care whatsoever. Like garbage, or in this case broken glassware.
E
I adore this. In the end they are all satisfied that they (in a way) had the freedom to choose whether they wanted to shatter by their own accord. but still, their fate doesn’t change :( poor cuppies. So bittersweet

Yep
@@vickyriadindisorder1191 exactly my friend
I'm gonna sub to you. Have a good day.
@@vickyriadindisorder1191 i feel the pain in your words 😢
so.. They shattered themselves.. To avoid getting shattered?
ABSOLUTELY LIFE CHA-
yes.. but they also stopped the game. only to start up their own:(
They ruined the big cups fun, just to annoy them,
@@PatrickSmithAnimation since 98 and 99 high fived, 97 pretty much continued the game, this time.. with punching i suppose
"What are they gonna do? Break us MORE?"

*Today's rebel is tomorrow's tyrant*
*George Orwell*
EXACTLY!!! bravo, perfect comment.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation Thanks man, I really like your animations it's so deep and meaningful
i love how the wine glasses always calmly whisper 'no' while they are in a life or death situation😂😂😂
haha that's my big voice acting debut!!
This is the definition of a bittersweet ending. They won but at what cost? They won but did they really change anything? It’s a lot like the ending of Animal Farm where nothing really changed when you get down to it, hence why the other glass grabbed a sheet of paper. It’s symbolic of how they’re gonna keep shattering until they ultimately destroy themselves. But nonetheless, this was very well done and I loved seeing those big wine glasses finally being defeated without too much backlash. It put a smile on my face as normally they win and bully the others in ways I personally found disturbing. I also loved that smiling of shattering themselves. It was so selfless and honestly heartwarming when the first mug shattered himself so the other wouldn’t be, and returned the favor henceforth smiling all the way. They “shattered” the tyranny and it was truly something. The sad part is that they’ll probably repeat the cycle because there’s always somebody out there who will replace the tyrannical that was overthrown. Like science, if there is an empty space, then everything is drawn to that empty space to fill it. All done via air pressure. The same way a tyrant starts: pressure.
thx for your insightful comment. animal farm is my favorite Orwell novel, and it's a model for everything I create. coming in close is Huxley's brave new world. thx again.
Ah yo tambien lo lei (en español es rebelión en la granja) trata mucho el tema del socialismo y como siempre se vuelve a lo mismo.
Un. Buen sistema no requiere que los politicos cambien, sino que el pueblo cambie, ya que hay que limpiar a la gente porque sino vuelven a lo mismo, una y otra vez(soy argentino y siempre es lo mismo porque la gente tiene en la cabeza el hecho de que el más vil y vivo(inteligente no, porque macri ni leer sabia) gana y domina. En europa la gente quiere trabajar, aca vamos porque sino morimos de hambre.
A lot of deep thoughts on this here channel.
I love this is so pow and really good
No philosophy please
Sometimes it takes hurting yourself to end a deadly game.
But at the end, you save other people's lives, including yours.
Either way, another amazing video! Loved it!
Well said!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation I just love how you think I wish I could have an conversation with you it just truly shocking the way you put these secrets behind your videos
we live in a society
Boohoo
SECRET WORDS WHE 2 GLASSES GET SMASHED:
0:13 "???"
0:46 "THERE IS NO COMING TO CONSCIOUSNESS WITHOUT PAIN"
1:18 "USED, EXPLOIDED, DISCARDED, ABUSE"
2:11 "PUTAN x12, POWER ONLY EXISTS WHERE THERE IS SOMEONE *OR SOMETHING* TO RULE OVER"
2:29 SAME THING AS LAST ONE WITHOUT PUTAN
2:41 same thing
2:45 "THERE IS NO COMING TO CONSCIOUSNESS WITHOUT PAIN"
2:47 "PAIN"
2:48 "PAIN"
Thanks for breaking this down, I was beginning to think nobody noticed!
and it's "PUPUTAN" a Balinise suicide rebellion ritual.
the first one appears to be “TYRANNY CORRUPTS THE MIND BY RESTRICTIONS, AND DEGRADES RELIGION BY MANIPULATIONS, AND DESTROYS KNOWLEDGE BY INTIMIDATIONS”
and the third one is “USED, EXPLOITED, DISCARDED, GAMEPIECES, ABUSE”

Not to blame but missed "gamepieces" on 1:18, anyways i wouldn't noticed it if you didn't type this so good job man
why does the beginning remind me of breaking eggs at Easter
What eggs

An excellent commentary on the nature of rebellion of the masses, and how easily such a movement can crumble under its own weight. Great job as always!
🎊🍰🍰🍰🍰g ok p nhi
do you like my last Animation about Humans and Animals?
@@curlyanimation5174 that "wonder wonder" part was pretty funny
@@PatrickSmithAnimation thank you so much. I am so happy about your nice comment 🤗
I would not want to live as a wine glass… to frigging scary… also those 2 bigger ones are not mentally ok
Another brilliant edition to the pour series I do live how each time the “villains” seem to become slightly more evil and menacing. I also did enjoy the fact that at the end it proved that rebellion can form from another rebellion more or less creating a cycle.
Great work and I can’t wait for the next edition
thank you very much! yes, indeed, they seem to get more and more menacing! I love the contrast between then tyrannical oversized monster, and the tiny individual victim.. and then how it can turn. cheers, glad your'e out there!
I’d like to see a continuation of the 668 story sometime even if years later : )
this animation was so bizzare but it is really well made
5 months of drawing.. happy I can finally share. thx for watching
@@PatrickSmithAnimation You should do more of these video
@@ketosis6407 i agree
@@ketosis6407 fr tho
3:31 after hearing nothing but the word "no" in these shorts, I'm happy that the final word said was a joyful sounding "yes." Awesome work!
ha, it was nice to say another word. both are my big voice acting roles.. maybe next film I'll say a third word haha
@@PatrickSmithAnimation your gonna say maybe XD
I love when they say no like quite
to be honest, when one cup smashes the other when in the pour games, the glass gets weaker so next round it loses, very unfair.
ok i did not think this would get alot, i was wrong.
I expected the 2 big wine glasses to smash their heads against each other at the end
I like that in pour series there is an idea of a specie of cycle, that ends and begin again, and another detail is how you leave the free interpretation, leaving people thought what is the meaning of this, it’s a metaphor for tyranny or something else, because there is this atmosphere of dystopia. And that’s it. Very well done.
thank you very much. yes, I love cyclical stories.. and I think they are everywhere in real life! thx for comment, share if you can!
I love this videos. Wow! ❤️
do you like my Videos too?
YOO ITS YOU
I love these videos so much I can’t understand why they’re so good!
I appreciate that. thx for watching and commenting.

Por que Las copas llenadas con vino no crecen???
@@yudyxiomaracruzangulo385 They follow different rules for each animation. So it could be that for each animation, its a different universe
Okay
The sound! Those little glass scraping sfx when they’re moving are so subtle but perfect
thanks for noticing, i work really hard on the audio and sometimes i don't think anyone cares!
I'm impressed how these plenty animations were all turned into one of the most interesting art pieces you have ever animated.
thanks! yeah, it's been an interesting project to work on.
Reminds me of those bad parenting habbits where they compete and compare their children to other childrens.
Ohhhhhhh, i get it. Glass is fragile and really easy to break, so the wine actually makes them stronger, and that's why they grow bigger.
I love the sounds every time they break, and the shadows are amazing, and it’s kinda dark at the end on how they make their own game of breaking their arms, still it’s amazing and inspiring to a lot of people.
thanks for noticing the shadows!! they are difficult to do, and sometimes I think nobody cares haha
02:00 Why is this so cute
Incredible as always!
You're the best!
Russians often ask me why we Ukrainians resist. The author of this animation gave the best answer to their question!
This is honestly such a great way to end the Pour series, great stuff!
i'm taking a month off, then starting a new film.
Oh Patrick, you and your little wine glass men. Great stuff, mate.
ha.. yeah I'm taking a break from drawing wine glasses for a while. hope you're channel is doing well.
Always a pattern and life finds way. You can break the cycle or join it. In hindsight just move forward, just keep on trucking. Idk probably. Really cool animation 😁
The hidden messages reslly represents the situation the world is in right now, amazing.
perhaps i hid them too well.. you're one of the few people to notice
0:35 I fell kinda bad for them
i love the style so much
I finally got a chance to sit down and watch this in it's entirely.
Holy moly, just when I thought the cycle was over it continues. It sucks, but that is the reality we live in. It doesn't always have to be that way, but I digress.
Your style, your coloring, and the animation itself is amazing!!! I really hope you're resting and getting breaks and not pushing yourself too hard when you're in the creative flow. That said, I also look forward to you doing more future work and sharing it! Mind you, please do not take this as pressure as I want you to enjoy the process and not get caught up in wanting/thinking you need to constantly produce media.
You're really cool and who knows, we may cross paths one day at a con or something.
thx for sitting down and really watching! glad you liked it. yeah that was a killer for me to make, so def resting for a few weeks before starting something else.
この人の作品はとても好きです。とても考えさせられます
Man I didn’t know they were wine
1:15 the "no" 💀
wait for one frame at 2:48 it says "there is no comin to consciousness without pain" witch is very eerie
that's a quote from Carl Jung.
Круто ты снимаешь
I can't express how much I love this
Amazing!!
A spectacular animation bringing moral lessons about fighting Tyranny and an ASMR at the same time. Those are the reasons why i love the series
Very well done man! 👏
thx, especially about asmr, because I work hard on the sound effects.
Theese videos are actually my childhood
The Definition of Wars.
Thanks for this lovely creative animation! I believe this is having the happiest ending I ever seen from “Pour” series. Yet the twist still got me out of guard as well as presenting the real society ironically.
Thank you so much for this comment, I truly appreciate it.
GAAAH I’m absolutely in love with the Pour series!! Really glad to see that you’re still making them, great job as always!
thank you! I may take a break for a bit, my next film will be a different concept, but I'm sure I'll do another installment at some point. thx for comment!
@@PatrickSmithAnimation hi
I love this animation and the face are amazing
Love the animation but just think of how gory it would be with blood unless the juice is supposed to be blood or represent it
I love so much the evolution of the story, great job as always! ❤️
thx!
Wow thx for saying thx 😊😊
it is cool
:) :)
1:28 when ones blood is all drained by others
I need a chronological order of these vids lol
oh yes, this episode is finally out and it's AMAZING!
The blood stain effects are well done, I like how the cups teamed up together and how the problem happened again amongst the former victums!
Thx for noticing the spatter! I dipped a toothbrush in red paint and spattered it on paper:)
Very nice movie dude, keep up the good work
Thanks!
"Once you have a crack, it will continue to grow."
The glass shatter sound so cool
thank you for noticing.. that was a dangerous recording session.
The “totally very real” plot of this video for anyone who’s confused:
Big Pour1:Hey I bet my Pourkemon could beat yours
Big Pour2:You’re on!
Pour 95:oh hel nah *suicide commences*
Big Pours: |:(
Pour 98:ow my arm
Pour 97:hehe boi
ha.. very good. although they don't suicide.. they just maim themselves in the spirit of willing sacrifice.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation I was too lazy to think of another word
Hi Patrick! I hope you remembered me, it's okay if not. I just want to say that I'm glad you uploaded!! I get really excited when you upload like these animations of yours, it's always amazing! Keep up the work!
glad you liked it! this one took a lot of time:(. thx for comment and good to hear from you!
I watched this 50 times and I won’t stop it’s that good
that's awesome, i really appreciate this.
That was such a great metaphor, I got shivers down my spine. Thank you for your work, it is amazing!
For some reason, I looked at the cover of your videos and I saw that there are always people who look with a contemptuous face to those who are lower than themselves, some people do not see those who are better than themselves, on the contrary, they see people who are inferior to them and judge him, some people are very similar to those big glasses, I like that you show them with animation one by one
you are very insightful.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation You're welcome :)
I really thought there would be one where both of them broke at the same time. Other than that, very well done.
EARLY! I love your animations btw I just wanna be like you when I grow up!
omg.. that's the nicest thing to say. thank you so much:)
@@PatrickSmithAnimation your welcomeo(〃＾▽＾〃)o

i try to sneak one in every time
Ok...quick Question?
Why don't you have over a million subscribers yet?
Your videos have millions upon millions of views, your animation is so creative and your story lines make you think about morals.
Seriously, come on guys.
Patrick Smith deserves to be a millionaire Subscriber and lets give em the numbers he deserves!
I’m hoping to hit 1 mill soon:) thx for this awesome comment.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation and you did!! Congratulations! You deserve it!
I remember the last time I watched your this kind of videos around 3 or 4 years ago. I see that you are still awesome, I adore this so much
Thank you so much for those fun years
thx for watching!
Either way they were going to be broken so by doing it themselves they took the the fun out of it so the big ones left them alone
omg there's a still frame of Stalin and Mao Zedong at 0:47
Well done. You're the first to notice. There's a few other Easter eggs in there.. Hint: focus on the HITS;)
Where?
i have 2 theory stories 1 the story could be continuing where at first there were scuffles for red liquid until it was all gone then one red liquid modified glass or RLMG had the idea of making a line for getting red liquid because of the fact that glasses with any liquid in them could duplicate the water, and it's shown in pour 585, pour 939 and this video, so then there was the RLMG known as 585 and his story is pretty simple, he's scared, he's forced to absorb red liquid, he gets mad yada yada yada I'm guessing he was captured and smashed and that was that. Then there was pour 668, with another scared boi but that's not what I'm here to talk about in pour 668, so a mini theory is that i have is pour 668 takes place BEFORE 585 now you might call me crazy but i have some things that might change that 1. maybe this was actually when there were red liquid scuffles where a cool dude gave his hoard of red liquid to his lackeys via machine and maybe 668 actually snuck in to see what it was, then when he pressed the buttons the liquid did something Sussy to him kinda like drugs (ew) where he wanted MORE and I think the reason he was smashed wasn't because he mixed the liquids, I think why is because the security dudes realized he wasn't a member of the cool Boi's group and acted accordingly and another reason it took place before was because they used machinery, because they had to use manual ways in all the other videos. so hopefully that information changed your mind about that. Pour 939 probably is a group of cheerful happy dudes responding to all the hate by making a RLMG army. my guess is this one is about torturing the POW's kinda like Vietnam but replace it w glasses. and my 2nd theory is maybe it all is a cycle with the cycle changing slightly every time to where maybe it is completely different like with the alteration where there is machinery or the mindset of a glass from unfulfilled in life to really happy or a completely new game but always leaving the last alteration behind so that's why there is no machinery in pour 939 or anything. so those are my 2 theorys about this series. Have a good day!
BRO CHILL OUT
We need more pours, I love them!!!
Looks like incredible!
2:17 this is the only time violence is the answer
guys try to pause at 2:17 there are secret messages
yes there is.. there are several, mostly at the hits.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation this was a great animation!
So again the messages i found in 2:17 is "gamepiece" "abuse" "exploited" "discarded" and a different one i cannot figure out is "osed". And in the second hit in the short film, shows a hidden message. Patrick Smith explained it was a carl yung note. The message is "THERE IS NO COMING TO CONSEQUENCES WITHOUT PAIN. In the third hit shows weird sentences saying "PAPUTA PUPUTA PAPUTA PUPUTA" and a message that can be read. "POWER ONLY EXISTS WHEN THERE IS *SOMETHING TO RULE OVER* The highlighted ones are the ones i found during cup 101 broke itself. I had to find it because in the first time i saw it red wine was blocking the sentence. Then in cup 102's plan to live, once he is broken you need to slow it down to 25x or 5x slower. The message says "PAIN". Also the message comes on cup 100's broken cup. Next there is no message showing up on cup 83 or 93. Onward to the rest of the film shows no more messages.
@@PatrickSmithAnimation How? I only found 10 messages! Check my comment

You can’t be toyed with if the game is broken!
I like this.
The poor games is a great animation. 10/10
thx.. this comment is 10/10
This feels more like a horror movie than a drinking game. Overall, the animation is awesome.
Just to say GREAT JOB AS ALWAYS
I like this series and you really deserve rest!
Something recurrent on this series is the fact that, because all the cups have the same thinking (or juice) they are condemned to repeat the same ideas over and over again (until someone "different" (that has not be killed) rise power. In this case they are not forced to "fight" anymore, wich is worse: They are choosing to fight...¡I would like to know theories about what happened to the machine of the last episode! (Orange-Red Choice Machine/Two opposite spectrums of the ideologies)
yes! thx for comment
These two reminds me our world...Where strong countries uses small ones
This such a perfect short film,I can’t stop laughing at Pour 95 sacrifice himself. It is so worth it,no regrets,even it is during my exam.
oh no! finish exam first haha
Ohhh, I waited so long and I love it👍🏻👍🏻
I take this as a prequel of "pour 585" as this was the life for the cups in the old Days.
Отличная анимация! Заставляет задуматься.
Why must the small guys be so cute! I love how you doing this type of short movies!
It's good that #95 decided to sacrifice himself rather than be a part of the sick twisted games of the two other big ones. It reminds me of the Hunger Games where by all the other districts are at the mercy of the richer more powerful ones having to take part in the games or die. In this case, all the smaller wine glasses decided to follow #95's lead and not play anymore. It's no fun for bullies if you can't have someone smaller to push around.
another insightful comment from you.
95 just by punching himself, he managed to save everyone from Tyranny.
What a legend :D
it's always the individual minded person that saves everyone.
Is not quite "salvation" if everyone got damaged anyways.
Oh god. Violence…
My favorite:)
Finally after waiting for few months you finally finish animating and post the full vid. Great job from you 💪💪💪💪🗿♥️
Hope you enjoyed it!
in the end i thought the tyrant cup would smash their own heads but the ending was still very nice
