You guys are genuinely my favorites. There are TH-camrs I enjoy and content creators I want to support, but I’ve never felt like “one of the boiks” like I do here. Tuning into hat films has lately been like catching up with friends. Don’t just love Hat Films but love you guys, hang in there lads.
@@Khrayfish I agreed with Tess, Hat Films are my favorite youtubers, but my favorite painting was the one that smith started by just dripping the ink from the top. It somehow remained somewhat geometrical and simplistic.
Can't believe Spotify got in the way of us getting a Hat Films dnd podcast, I will never forgive this. So anyway, my favourite painting was the one with the spiral centrepiece, very fine blending there.
So I've been watching you guys consistently for a decade. There's too many reasons to list nicely in a TH-cam comment, but FOR ME it breaks down to these: 1) your chemistry is amazing 2) you're knowledgeable and creative content creators and 3) you guys are insightful. Together, you've provided content that appeals to a dude between maturing into the "responsibilities" of his late twenties and thirties and remembering the simplicity of kicking it with his friends back in highschool and uni. Your content gives me a good laugh throughout the day and before bed, and it challenges and educates me as an entrepeneur and creative (barber, KuyaMikeCuts). Your humour isn't just infectious, it's cathartic. But to address your point on "being successful," especially as someone who, a few years back, saw when you guys were on the cusp on a million subs, I think it's because you guys diversified very early. You know all of us Hats & Hatettes love your content. I watch the entirety of the ads on your videos, I actively search and support you guys when you do collabs, and I watch your sponsored videos even if the game isn't really my thing. I've ordered your merch before and, being from Canada, I can't tune into your Twitch streams often. Me, and plenty of other people, have a relationship with you guys that has depth (as deep as an Internet relationship can go). And I think that's the problem. The Paul's relationship with fans AND detractors is simple and pretty one way. They give money and they expect shennanigans and membership into the Maverick culture/fanbase. With you guys, you either have to have been watching you from time (remember when Ross and Smith sounded the same) or buy into your style of humour and content, which TH-cam is dramatically moving away from (more talk show and boy band brits, less cynical one). It's hard to be heard when noone hears what you're saying but your core group. And I know for a fact I'm a reserved guy (that's why watching you three is so cathartic). Again, you guys are my favourite TH-camrs. Whether it's (among EVERYTHING about you Internet strangers I've learned over the years) Chris' comedic and dramatic timing, Ross' ability to go from calm MC/host to manic shit eater, and Smith's (still feels weird to call him Alex) honesty and wealth of knowledge expected of a member of UK's reserve forces #TA, HAT FILMS has been successful and is meaningful to us. But whatever you guys decide to do and put your time into, this "old" fan understands. Pretty pissed Spotify waived your D&D pitch because I know it would have been good. Pursue what makes you guys secure and makes you happy!
I have a similar story. Live in the USA and can’t watch many streams but I have loved their content and the boiks for nearly a decade and watch as many videos as I can
I loved the whole random f1 chat. As a hardcore fan of you and f1 for so many years the crossover is weird when it happens. I enjoy it almost as much as smiff 2nd painting of Lewis' ass
Hat films one of my favourite channels. Aunty Donna are touring Australia in October and November. They are amazing. "Morning brown I'm still not sure. Can you please explain it some more?" "It's coffee ya fuck"
Walkers was founded in 1948 in Leicester, England by Henry Walker, and in 1989 was acquired by Lay's owner, Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo. Walkers is now Lays, they probably kept the Walkers branding in England so they wouldn't lose their original customers
Ross: what's the weirdest crisp flavor you've ever had? Have we ever had any weird flavors? Me an American: The flavors you've been talking about for 5 minutes aren't weird???
You should try cheese and onion crisps. They're...amazing. There's a CHEEZ-IT SNAP'D flavor in cheese and onion that I'd definitely recommend. They're part potato so it still counts.
You guys are quite possibly my longest continuous subscription here on TH-cam. At least one that still uploads. So yes, I'd say you guys are one of my favorites.
hat boys are my favorite boiks bcus they're very sensible in their approach to topics and always got new things to say as if listening to a podcast but it's not boring. learned a lot over the years watching them, and some of the "less popular" opinions make me feel less crazy
8:56 The irony they're called Smiths Scampi Fries. Also, try the Smith Bacon Fries. I missed them so much my family send me a 24 pack when I moved to another country!
I would love to see more of this. Both the "race and talk about anything but the game" format, and them good ol' boys you were playing in the roleplay gamemode.
Tbf, I was watching that show where comedians share a mic and take turns saying something about topic they have (I can’t remember the name it’s in TV all the time) and there was one where the guy just said “Buy, EGGS!” and all my friends and I cracked up laughing for about 10 minutes because of how simple yet stupid it was. In other words, eggs are funny…
You guys are my favorites absolutely! I live in the US, so I can’t catch streams regularly. But I watch most all of your videos and just enjoy the work and hustle you guys have always had!
I'm going to be honest, I don't think I noticed a single thing that happened in the game the whole video, it could have been a still image for all I know
In answer to your question Trott, you boiks have always been some of my favourite youtubers. Also, Aunty Donna are an amazing bunch of fellas and I highly recommend checking them out on their TH-cam channel where they've got so many sketches.
I've been watching since the 1st America vlog and haven't stopped since. Why? You lads are funny and have a unique style that nobody else does. Their are a lot of other things I enjoy but ultimately it boils down to that. I love your content from hat films, to hat gaming, the streams and the podcast (which is fantastic). I hope you guys continue to do this for years to come as you guys have brought me so much joy and laughter through your videos and streams.
Spotify common! have you not seen Chris Trotts advertisments in DnD streams?! they're amazing! imagine him dooing it for an audio ad. I can picture the asmr mastery.
You'll always be my favourite boiks. Been watching you guys since I started highschool and I'm halfway through Uni now. If your channels ever go away I'm gonna be pissed!
Love a good ol GTA playlist. and i'd love to see more from you guys. and YES! you guys are my favorite TH-camrs, I just don't care for many other let's players. and also, love these Playlists, I adore your Roleplay series. not sure what happened to it. but it was some of my favorite content recently from you guys.
Yes, you are all are, OF COURSE, still my favorites, because where else am I going to watch three best buds laugh about how gross it is to scoop shit out of a dog's mouth, only to then turn around and say that the sweat chips video wasn't that gross because Smith farted in Trott's mouth once? You don't get this kinda hilarity in just any setting, only you Hat Films lads can pull that off, hahaha For real though, you guys are not only hilarious and creative, but also super skilled at filming and editing your videos (Craig is included in this too, obviously
I once had to pull the a rat carcas out of the mouth of my dog. I didn't know it was a rat beforehand otherwise I'd put some gloves on. And an other time I had to wrestle her to pull a bone out because if slintering her inside could be pierced by sharp pieces.
No other channel really has the same feeling of a couple of idiots talk shit, have great back and forth banter, and sing silly songs. My favourite painting was the F1 race at Baku, was very good happy for Gasly
You guys mentioned wanting to do some improv maybe after a couple classes you could collaborate with aunty donna I reckon the chemistry could be awesome, dream team
As an American sometimes when people from the UK talk about snacks it sounds like they're making up words. Both of us speak English, maybe because its a different culture maybe I'm not used to hearing it but i feel snacks in America are more straight forward. Someone from the UK do you feel the same way about our snacks? Seriously what is a quavo? I thought that was a rapper.
I watch you guys because of the friendly banter... It's not only fun, it's enjoyable on some sort of deeper level. I guess it reminds me of when I used to have fun with friends like that. Nowadays all my friends have found other friends, gotten married, etc., we don't interact like we used to. Sometimes it feels like you guys are my friends, with how well I know you. But that only works because your personalities are ones I'd vibe with. I don't think it's a bad place to be, grass is always greener and all that, but if other hat fans are like me, you've definitely got a unique and limited niche.
You guys are genuinely my favorites. There are TH-camrs I enjoy and content creators I want to support, but I’ve never felt like “one of the boiks” like I do here. Tuning into hat films has lately been like catching up with friends. Don’t just love Hat Films but love you guys, hang in there lads.
Yeah but what was your favourite painting?
Well said
@@Khrayfish I agreed with Tess, Hat Films are my favorite youtubers, but my favorite painting was the one that smith started by just dripping the ink from the top. It somehow remained somewhat geometrical and simplistic.
Big agree

Hello David Bowie
Blackstar was one of the most intricate harmonies I've ever heard. Thanks. See you in 50-60 years.
Fr, fuck Spotify we need this desperately
You are our favorite, only second to the painting that trott started with.
I like your name....a lot!

That TA joke gets me everytime.
@@Khronogi sometimes I worry it annoys Smith. But that would be insulting his maturity/patience!
@@zachbetz6758 They deserve every praise. Less dick ripping more ad block turning off-ing
Hat Gaming is my favorite. Now those Hat Film guys? Another story.
The second painting was my favourite!
Why is everyone mentioning paintings what inside joke did i miss
@@harrisonwayne9202 the painting video clearly
Very happy to hear the boys talking about Aunty Donna.
Would love to see a collab...
I really liked the 3rd painting, I think it really brought out the best collaborative effort.
I loved the whole random f1 chat. As a hardcore fan of you and f1 for so many years the crossover is weird when it happens. I enjoy it almost as much as smiff 2nd painting of Lewis' ass
Can confirm Hat Films are still my favourite
lewis' painting is my favourite painting
19:26 Greatest save ever? .... Almost.
Here since Skylands, still my favourite boiks.
You're still my favorites. So much so, in fact, that I find it difficult to eat food any time I'm not listening to you talking about disgusting things
Hat films one of my favourite channels. Aunty Donna are touring Australia in October and November. They are amazing. "Morning brown I'm still not sure. Can you please explain it some more?" "It's coffee ya fuck"
Good to hear about old shed boy (Jimmy Broadbent) in the Hatfilms racing chat!
Painting #4 was clearly superior.
Yes Trott of course.
hat films x aunty donna is the crossover i never knew i needed but now i realise really needs to happen
Squirrel pie was the weirdest walkers crisp i have ever had. Best flavour no longer around was Lamb and Mince.
I’ve missed GTA Hat videos. Thanks for making more!
Also good to see Smith have a genuine laugh retelling that dog story
You guys are def still my favorites! Only channel I've consistently come back to for the last decade or so. Love you!
Walkers was founded in 1948 in Leicester, England by Henry Walker, and in 1989 was acquired by Lay's owner, Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo.

I personally couldn't care less about the brothers Paul.
Yet another video that shows how you should never eat during a hat films video
Aunty Donna's Big Old House of Fun was about a 50/50 split between new stuff and retooling/adaptations of their live show skits.
Been watching you guys since 2014 with the Minecraft series Hat Corp.
I think the painting Ross started was my fave. love these art streams bois
I'm 27, I've been on youtube since the summer of 2006, and you're the only gaming channel I still regularly watch. So yes you're my favourite people.
thanks for going back to making these. the GTA V Playlist bants are unrivaled :)
You are my favorite hat films of all time, no other hat films gets close.
You guys are quite possibly my longest continuous subscription here on TH-cam. At least one that still uploads. So yes, I'd say you guys are one of my favorites.
Interesting Lays and Walkers are called Smiths in Australia
You guys will always be the favourite
Nothing scratches my itch for a mini hat chat like the GTA 5 vids
Love that they're talking about "boxing" and Smiffy brings up Tyson Fury's famous quote.
I need to see a Hat Films crisp tier list, I don't care what it takes
was waiting for them to mention the fact they've tried their own sweat flavor crisps haha, i thought they had blocked out that memory
I like the 3rd painting.
hat boys are my favorite boiks bcus they're very sensible in their approach to topics and always got new things to say as if listening to a podcast but it's not boring.
learned a lot over the years watching them, and some of the "less popular" opinions make me feel less crazy
8:56 The irony they're called Smiths Scampi Fries. Also, try the Smith Bacon Fries. I missed them so much my family send me a 24 pack when I moved to another country!
I liked the fourth painting
Also holy shit Trott crossing the line at the end with 0.248 seconds before DNF
I would love to see more of this. Both the "race and talk about anything but the game" format, and them good ol' boys you were playing in the roleplay gamemode.
Azerbaijan GP was a banger. Didn't know the boiks followed it
My favourite painting was the last one
Pringles makes loaded baked potato flavored chips; and OH BOY
Best flavor, 100%
Gotta love Aunty Donna. Keep up the good content lads
Tbf, I was watching that show where comedians share a mic and take turns saying something about topic they have (I can’t remember the name it’s in TV all the time) and there was one where the guy just said “Buy, EGGS!” and all my friends and I cracked up laughing for about 10 minutes because of how simple yet stupid it was.
In other words, eggs are funny…
Deep down I know you shouldn't eat when you are watching a Hat Films video. But I did it anyway, and I regret it
Good Day! and welcome. Its your favourite people hatfilms, back on the gta playlists hell yeah.
You guys are my favorites absolutely! I live in the US, so I can’t catch streams regularly. But I watch most all of your videos and just enjoy the work and hustle you guys have always had!
Also, the 2nd painting was bestest ofc
Well if nothing else, you guys are definitely my favorite three guys in this video!
You guys are still my favourites
I'm going to be honest, I don't think I noticed a single thing that happened in the game the whole video, it could have been a still image for all I know
the gta episodes are basically a podcast
Weirdest crisp flavour, Vanilla ice cream monster munch
In answer to your question Trott, you boiks have always been some of my favourite youtubers. Also, Aunty Donna are an amazing bunch of fellas and I highly recommend checking them out on their TH-cam channel where they've got so many sketches.
Oooh I would love hatfilms dnd! I know Trotts in a camp, but still would love to see the boix play 😁
8:00 bruh im litterally eating bacon snacks and loving it XD
Hat Gaming Needs A Join Button
Such a good painting!
I've been watching since the 1st America vlog and haven't stopped since. Why? You lads are funny and have a unique style that nobody else does. Their are a lot of other things I enjoy but ultimately it boils down to that. I love your content from hat films, to hat gaming, the streams and the podcast (which is fantastic). I hope you guys continue to do this for years to come as you guys have brought me so much joy and laughter through your videos and streams.
I liked painting #3
painting 1 was the best all the way!
You are absolutely my favourite!!
My favourite painting is number 3
Spotify common! have you not seen Chris Trotts advertisments in DnD streams?! they're amazing! imagine him dooing it for an audio ad. I can picture the asmr mastery.
You'll always be my favourite boiks. Been watching you guys since I started highschool and I'm halfway through Uni now.
If your channels ever go away I'm gonna be pissed!
I had a favourite painting
Lando Norris is a relatively local lad and popular game streamer. Maybe the boiks could merge their real and digital F1 worlds a little at some point?
My heart sank when Ross said he didnt see the point in pickled onion flavoured monster munch, I dont know when I will recover from this...
Always my favorites
2:40 a Hatfilms DnD show? pls Spotify take them ooon
Love a good ol GTA playlist. and i'd love to see more from you guys. and YES! you guys are my favorite TH-camrs, I just don't care for many other let's players. and also, love these Playlists, I adore your Roleplay series. not sure what happened to it. but it was some of my favorite content recently from you guys.
Next Hat Chat guest should be your old school friends.
No matter what Smith says, you will always be my favourite. That's the kind of blind trust hat films fans should have. At least.
Still my favourite. Best boiks on TH-cam 10/10
Yes, you are all are, OF COURSE, still my favorites, because where else am I going to watch three best buds laugh about how gross it is to scoop shit out of a dog's mouth, only to then turn around and say that the sweat chips video wasn't that gross because Smith farted in Trott's mouth once?

Why do i eat while watching hat films....? I never learn!
Favourites is a strong word, i'd say lose the third one and then lets talk .. P.S never change. #MixedMessages
Hat films is still my favorites, even after 10+ years
fantastic
Yes, you three are still my favorite people.
pickled onion monster munch are the best
No other channel really has the same feeling of a couple of idiots talk shit, have great back and forth banter, and sing silly songs. My favourite painting was the F1 race at Baku, was very good happy for Gasly
I like the spelling correction in the title Mr. Uploader.
Doing the duty of a good Uploader :)
Hat Gaming crisp tier list vid required. 8 months behind the trend, but of course it is.
my favorite fur sure
We call them “Zoomies” when the dog has a massive burst of energy haha
I watch solely for the crisps reviews.
As an American, there is a large chunk of this video that is pure gibberish to me. Skips? I dunno.
You guys mentioned wanting to do some improv maybe after a couple classes you could collaborate with aunty donna
I reckon the chemistry could be awesome, dream team
All jokes aside I liked your commentary on inside
Can you guys please please PLEASE do a DnD series 😍😍
Spiral painting xx
