- So I started this months ago but work/life got hard (you know, the usual garbage). But here's one of my favorite scenes from HL:VRAI!! I loved Mike's Gman so this was a lot of fun! EDIT: Now with subtitles!

This was when we truly realized that benrey wasn’t joking when he said he wasn’t human.
I was just thinking that
He wasn't human he's gamer
Minor spelling mistake he has to be replaced with "hesnt"
@@jakubkucera288
Hesnt is funny.
Nah i realized at the point where he lit a headcrab on fire with his mind
At first, GMan seems so mysterious. Then he just seems like just another guy.
He acts this way because he is terrified of benrey and knows his power
no matter how much power you hold benrey will always be terrifying
I love the terror on Gman’s face as he realizes that benry is as powerful if not more powerful than the gman.
No benry is more powerful
@@adambarnes2738 that’s what he said-
Gman is genuinely scared of Benrey because he absorbed all of the multi-dimensional power from the resonance cascade
And thats why he cant be affected by Gman's time stop. And
for Freeman,plot.
imho he was always like that
He also wanted that Playstation gamertag
@@arrowok true
It does well to capture the menace of the G-Man right up until Benrey shows up, which hilights the absurdity of Benrey’s character. It’s really effective at making an already funny scene downright hilarious.
This is so well done omg
How did you get here
SALTY WATCHES THE FUNNY HALF LIFE SHOW?
salt e real?????? what !!!!!!!!!
YO SALTY?
*What are you doing here??*
LOL. Him asking, "Where are we?" actually makes sense here.
this was one of the scariest, yet funniest moments
like the realization that benry is outside the diagetic laws of physics everybody else has to abide by, where even the omniprescient G-man is surprised is terrifying
Benry is the HLVRAI universe’s equivalent of the nialanth, who is commonly theorized to be of the G-man’s species so it makes sense that he would have similar powers
I love how this bit went. How absolutely terrifying to be an entity like the Gman and have something unexpected like this happen. Assuming that Benry is more dangerous than he lets on was a smart move lol
imagine you're gman going through so many games and talking to so many gordons, untouched and uninterrupted...then you come upon this gordon and his barney is a little different 😭
@@informalnarwhals oh god that's actually so terrifying, Mandela catalog vibes lol
Benry just poking at the background while they both stare at him in complete disbelief is really the cherry on top.
Great work.
Benrey: The only character in *ANY* Half Life work of fiction (that I know of) to bamboozle the G-Man
Didn't the Combine lock G-Man up in Half-Life: Alyx?
@@mariic2the gman let himself get captured tho
There's the Heavy in Pootis Engage Extreme
00:48 The moment G-Man realized this wasn't a normal playthrough of Halflife.
This is my favorite moment in hlvrai. Not just because it’s funny, but because it’s also kind of scary.
In og Half Life, Gman is portrayed as this powerful unworldly deity. It took the combine a lot of power to have him contained, making it clear that it takes a ton in order to defy gman. So imagine how it must feel to have another entity that not only isn’t affected against Gman’s powers, but also shows no sign of a struggle.
Gman should be terrified.
Usual security shtick then immediately changes the subject to PlayStation plus
Probably my favourite thing in the entire animatic is just 0:52. G-Man's reaction, looking to Gordon for confirmation, and Gordon doing what all of us were doing when we first saw this. Plus the slight animation with the swaggle, nicely done :)
Oh my fucking god when g-man turned gordon around to speak in private only for benry to just *be there too* and g-man did a double take was fucking gorgeous
The animation itself is great but mad props for the editing, all the cuts and framing, especially in the first half before Benrys arrival are excellent
i love the idea that gman is in genuine horror that benrey is even able to resist his fuckn universe bending powers and then gordon is just so used to this he's just laughing at his antics
The guy who did g man actually did a pretty decent job of imitating his voice and speaking style.
i love how the g-man looks over to gordon expecting an explanation and gordon's just like 'i'm just as confused as you are mate'
Gordon's "fuck if i know man" style response while never not get a good chuckle out of me
B: Do you have credentials?
GM: Uh- (Looks at Gordon)
G: (Shrugs I dunno)
G-Man's presence in this story made more internal sense than in the original game.
no way
@@aarontheperson6867 Yes way. Tommy turns out to be G-Man's son, which explains both the weird events of the story and why G-Man shows up at all.
@@willow5945 I will hit you (for no reason)
@@willow5945 gman shows up in the original game to give the black mesa facility the sample which starts the whole resonance cascade. he also is there to oversee gordan thru the event and help/hire him. hes an interdimensional talent agent except instead of talent he's looking for gunslingers or whatever he wants lol. anyway i disagree but it doesn't matter its all subjective.
@@aarontheperson6867 Granted, he fits into the story, but his particular brand of esoteric reality-breaking weirdness is intentionally incongruous with the more grounded science fiction story it's enmeshed in, whereas in HLVRSA, that's pretty much the baseline.
This voice fits Gordon uncomfortably well
you managed to capture the feeling and motion of G-man
also I love how when G-man turn back to look at freeman
freeman: like I have no idea how he doing this
I also love how you perfect capture the felling of G-man and his confusion and everything it just perfect i cant explain how good it is god.
ITS TOO PERFECT ITS TOO GOOD!!
this is so well done this need more view and like take my sub
i love that he looks to Gordon for help in this
I love the detail of writing benry 5 times going off his name tag because that's what his passport was like
Alright, this is the best interpretation of this scene IMO and I love it. The gesturing, the way you made the location different from the actual clip, the way Benry looks exactly how he acts.. *Chefs kiss* Couldn't be done better!
Benry Gay Hand Movements
but also this is absolutely spectacular I love it so much. The expressions and the timing... magnifique
LOL
This is wonderful. I love the small details, like the smoother animation when GMan says Gordon's name, and the zoom in on Benry's goblin face when he starts talking. Not to mention Benry's name tag
I think Benrey is some sort of omnipotent god who can transcend reality but is so focused on his job that he's unaware of his powers.
For an "animatic" there is actually a ton of movement, it looks so good! Also I love Gordon's canfused headshake
I love how short and stubby benrey is compared to gman
Idk man, gman is 6’7
@@JustYourAverageEgg ok I didn’t know that lol
G-man's horror when he spots BenreyBenreyBenreyBenrey is always hilarious
The fact that benry can just do what ever he wants
And that g man is just confused about how the funk benry actually just not froze
This whole thing feels like a Piemation’s short holy shit
IMO it feels more to inside job
soooooooo normal abt the shape language and designs for this.... super normal
is this sarcasm?
1:21
Feels like a gag on the "HOW THE FUUCK" when benry somehow got into the reactor at the beginning of Half life XD
1:00 i absolutely adore his hand movement here
This is still by far one of my favorite animations on youtube to come back to and watch. I just love it so much
it is funny
So normal about the way you visually portrayed the gman freezing time
i feel like Gordon was laughing and taking it all in cuz he wasnt on the brunt of Benreys madness for once lol
This was one of my favorite Benry scenes he's so silly- *Turns into some interdimensional god* wow he's so silly with the way he did that hand thing when saying another month
1:24 god the way G-Man turns around kills me so consistently it’s so gooooooooooooooddd
gman, he who stops time and sends freeman to the special place™️, is afraid of benry and his ability to manipulate said space to appear wherever he wants, regardless of gman
The expressions on this so perfectly compliment this scene. I love all the subtle touches, like Benry's hand on his face when he says "okay but I went to see them though". So funny, fantastic vid, kills me every time haha.
Benry always has this overwhelming presence. You never know his intentions.
This genuinely seems like it would air on Adult Swim late at night and that is the PERFECT vibe
That would be awesome
I believe it’s canon that G-Man is scared of Benrey instead of annoyed, but this is so well done and funny regardless!
Its basically both.
Benry is so chaotic and powerful that even Gman fears him
0:53 I love how gman and gordon look at each other here
This is fucking incredible. The credentials/ID part killed me every time and seeing it come back in this moment is just chefs kiss. OH NOT TO MENTION how BEAUTIFULLY realized this lil animation is. God
HOW am i just now seeing this masterpiece, I'm cackling at how well animated the expressions are- 1:07 and 1:24 took me OUT😭💀
At 1:07 sully meme fades on next to Benry
GOD THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS AND MOVEMENT DETAILS ARE JUST *chefs kiss*
Benrey small now.
@@SalusKitty step on the him
"You have credentials?" "It's okay, I wanna see them though..."
And in that moment, Benrey was the good guy.
I love Benrey’s body language in particular here
This just might be the greatest artistic interpretation (animatic) of hlvrai I have EVER seen.
Conglaturations.
is he.... y'know.... 1:10 ?
What?
@@gdawg-in9ny ( _limp wrist movement a.k.a. gay_ )
@@TehLambOfAwesome the world may never know
@@TehLambOfAwesome I personally don’t think the wrist movement gives it away... I do think a lot of benrey’s dialogue in the series DOES give it away.... especially in act 3 and act 4 does.. and the commentary streams give it away a lot as Wayne said Benrey’s lusting after Gordon the whole fucking series.. so to answer the question, yes. He’s gay.. he’s a homosexual.
yes, yes he is
Your style works SO damn well for these characters.
0:33-0:38 Expressive G-Man is expressive… and very, very creepy.
I love how Gman just looks annoyed. He already knows what Benrey is capable of, why would he be surprised?
i love how tommy is going :3 for all 5 of his frames
does a gay little interruption that pisses you off
Everything about this is so good, GMan being so genuinely creepy in the beginning just makes the tone shift complete perfection, and I can't think of any way to describe this Benrey other than Peak Benrey.
The dramatic music hinted to this and how he is more powerful then the g man
SO GOOD, G Man looking back at Gordon who's just shrugging made me laugh out loud! NICE XD
“Will the real slim shady please stand up… will the… real slim shady… please… stand up…”
69 like's nice
Benrey's movements here remind me so much of Spongebob, i love the movements and expressions, they're all eyecandy
AMAZING JOB, also benrey doesn't have a shadow over his eyes and that's a bold stylistic choice. i like it.
1:11 is he... you know....
???
Very
Ooof your comment got stolen a month later
Is this how Dio felt when his time stop was invaded by a teenager in a stupid hat
When we saw that Benry defied the time freeze? That definitely wasn’t a good sign.
Two cosmic horrors meet
The likelihood of such an event occurring was so astronomical that the one cosmic entity became fearful and fled. All the while in the presence of a mortal being that somehow manged to retain its Sanity throughout the process. . . .
Truly terrifying.
GOD GORDON AT THE END CAUGHT ME SO OFF GUARD BAHDGFSHG...
This is so amazing! The acting is ON POINT, I love Benrey's little gestures!
Is he... Ykno 💅👀 1:10
Benrey's nametag cracked me up way more than it should have
Benry benry benry
Benry benry
Benry. Benry
Benry benry
Well... he just weirded away a god-like entity.
G-Man : *returns back to his employers*
"Ok, we need that ... thing dead, ASAP !"
love the shrug at 0:54 so good
This is just amazing!
I love the style! Just amazing
Also Benrey is an unstoppable god from another dimension that even G-Man fears him, surrender or he will torment us in Passport Hell
I find it hilarious that a storyboard artist at Disney watched hlvrai
@@SUPERINSANEBIRD9000 I watch ytp too
I say this so often but I just love the confusion and hint of fear in G-man's voice. He's confused and for a being of such immense power and knowledge not knowing something about a thing standing in front of you is a horrifying thought.
G-man is pretty much an alien demigod who tries to do his usual things only to encounter the fucking King in yellow
this is legitimately my favorite piece of hlvrai fanart
benreys eyelash apprechiation
Oh, I love how dramatic you made it, only for Benrey to crash that atmosphere so hard
the most cursed thing about this is gmans speech patterns are normal and i love it
I love how gmans hair is so flat like the ps2 textures in the real game
the details its amazing amount of detail its great
I imagine benry is what aliens would ACTUALLY act like when they visit and examine earth.
"Therewasn'tgoingtobeabigplotbutyouforcedmetobebaaaadsoigottabebaaaaad.... friend"
I love how in this entire series, the improv that benry did genuinely catches people completely off guard throughout the entire series
This animation gave me the headcanon/design idea of G-man's suit being made out of galaxy (having a galaxy patern) cus he's floating in space •3• And if Tommy had a suit it would be funky colorful stars like arcade carpet :) Anyways this is really cool, the faces and movements are so good and cool looking. I love the dark eyes in the "good spirit" part truly ominous.
Like the chowder clothes patterns??? I absolutely love that cuz I can imagine it perfectly, one being a really dauntingly vast starry expanse, and the other being a technicolor UV light nightmare that looks like fully like if an arcade floor but magical
its because thats how he appears for the first time in hl2 to give his first speech
"i- buh- what's wrong with my suit, Mr. freeman? i don't understand! please stop flailing on the ground, you're scaring me ;c"
I really like Gordon’s expression at 0:54 you can tell he’s stopped trying to make sense of anything
THIS LOOKS LIKE AN ANIMATIC FOR A MOVIE OMG
I mean they *did* work as a story board artist for a lot of things
Love how Gman is actually scared of Benry
GMan: talkin with Gordon
Benrey: Hey, you.. you have another month of playstation plus?
This is the best thing i've seen in so long holy shit. I just... Love this so much, your charachterdesigns are so fun to look at and the storyboard is just so fun. I just love this so much don't mind me
you are very welcome!!
Gman looking at Gordon like "help"
Gordon looking like: idk man you are on your own here
You can't convince me that benrey didn't do this to save Gordon the time of listen bullcrap or alternatively he didn't do it so then Gordon wouldn't known he was the final boss.
I love how you've drawn Benry.
this is the best animation ive found of this that really encapsulates the energy of this scene!!! amazing stuff haha
Gman: *trying to speak to gordon*
Benry: yo man you got a passport
Gman: *visible confusion*
Gordon: *visible confusion and laughter*
