This is an excellent short film about greed, consumerism, and scientific progress. I love the animation style, it’s so unnerving with its realistic features and irregular movement, it gives quite an uneasy feeling. The story itself is a world with a solution to everything. It’s scary once the downward spiral begins and we see the world unravel and revert to what it once was, only for the cycle to (supposedly) begin again. Edit: The comments have some great insight on the dystopian ideas this video has!
Ape While I somewhat agree, I somewhat disagree as well. Personally, I got dystopian vibes from it. In ways it’s like utopian societies, everything being perfect with cream, turning to dystopian BECAUSE of selfish rich assholes. It’s also not. So I’ll have to half agree with you there.
My god, i remember watching this like three years ago, and i already understand the point of this story, "behind the perfect happiness, there's always someone who only care about greed and taking all of the peacefullness for themself"
i personally would say it seems more so like even when we have a solution to a problem the people in power intervene to keep the problem so long as they stay in power
rich people are making money off the poor people, if poor people can do what they wanted to do, rich people couldn't make any more money, this is based true life :)
It's not greed. It's government. Control of the masses. A hierarchical plan from divine consciousness itself. One someone at the bottom may never understand just how important it really is to save humanity from itself. Sin is everywhere to test us all to see how faithful and pure we truly are, and so many of us give into that temptation and prove just how necessary the greater good through sacrifice truly is. All of this "bad" in the world is there to purify the world on the fly throughout time itself, and its necessity will never go away. "Satan" is a fundamental purity tester to make sure we all have a purpose in life by saying no to the temptation, and following a higher path.
One issue, if people all injected themselves to become smarter, and cream cures general stupidity, shouldn’t the people have caught on to the lies instead of being gullible? Other then that, such a perfect story that really shows how society can hive mind because of the word of the “higher” class

In the end the most powerful people in the world don't really care about making it a better place. In the end all they care about is making a profit, and a world without problems isn't profitable.
It's not really the profit so much as the relative wealth to others and the power that it buys them. They'd be fine with $1 if everyone else only had a penny.
@@Kaylakaze of course wealth is relative, but I can't see what that has to do with anything he said? He didn't say anything contradicting wealth being relative, nor did he even talk about that subject. And it is still about the profit no matter wealth being relative or not, a $10 profit is still a profit like a $1.000.000.000 profit is a profit.
Oh man believe me, you're the worst flaw of society. Your comment is so bizzare and stupid, my hairline curled back and I wanted to die. You might see yourself as a galaxy brained scientist or a smart guy, but your failed attempt on trying to sound smart was enough to make me puke.
- is he dead? - no, he exponentially improved himself physically and mentally to a zenith of absolute perfection, subsequently evolving into a being of pure light energy. *It just sounds like death but with extra steps*
Sorry but becoming a being of pure light energy is not death, hell it's not even close to death. More like just simply transformed into an angel. Ah now just wait for some random idiots to say R/whoosh or 'you must be fun at party'
this hits hardd it's like no matter how much we try to cover up our problems with temporary fixes we’re still left with the same broken pieces underneath kinda makes you question how much we sacrifice for the illusion of perfection
That wasn't the point, there were no temporary solutions, cream was THE solution, but the rich and powerful didn't like having their power becoming obsolete
@@nisa-weirdo Wdym "yeah sure" that's literally it, the bad news about Cream were made by them as a fake propaganda and slander so they'd get rid of it
@Grad Tolentino I know there were a couple of episodes where the real "monster" was just a man. The biggest example that comes to mind is the one where the Parliament member has to have intercourse with a pig. Also, the cream itself is the tech needed to make this a Black Mirror episode.
its incredible how this represents the human society. People invent the perfect thing that can end every bad thing, making money obsolete, and the rich people, just minding their own lifes so much that they banish the thing that can change lifes, end wars, hunger, thirst, suffering, ETC. this animation is incredible. keep up with this stuff. Edit: HOLY COW OH MY HOW DID I GET THESE MANY LIKES.
What's even crazier is that through this utopia, there was going to be a dystopia like Powfutality said, there would be no meaning to creation anymore. It would either be mutually assured destruction, or everyone transcends and either way humanity is utterly erased.
i love how it felt like a joke at the beginning, but instantly became so intense and had me watching as though it's a serious documentary. also, the animation slaps!
@@spyrospyrospyro123 What? That proves nothing, just read my second reply. You’re just imagining a scenario in which something is bad, then thinking that that scenario is real.
@@pepelepede2743 That logic is extremely faulty. You can watch this, imagine that the cream is actually any real thing, then, by your logic, it could show literally anything to be bad.
The way they brought this to life through animation is absolutely horrifying! The attention to detail and the eerie atmosphere they’ve created really add to the sense of dread. Every movement feels unsettling, making it impossible to look away, even though it’s so disturbing. It’s a masterclass in creating fear through animation.
It's interesting how cream works. Cream itself is essentially perfection, but whatever is submerged in it doesn't become cream, but a sentient being of energy. This means cream respects the value of life and has a moral code deemed "perfect"
@@tea-zv6hm I think what they mean is that if Cream can fix anything and improve anything to no clearly defined limit, then cream itself must be absolute perfection itself. You can’t get better than Cream. So you would think cream would turn everything else into cream too, because that’s the best thing to be. But that wouldn’t make people happy, that’d be a grey goo scenario. This cream, this intelligent and all-improving substance, has enough of a moral code and intelligence to know that becoming cream is undesirable despite cream being the best thing there is. It’s perfection incarnate, and it has morals.
Despite being very fake and SciFi like, that ending was very modern and realistic with the media, and the upperclass wanting to keep those status so they villify anything that challenges them and lock up the people they seem as problematic.
"The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses." - Malcolm X
But it’s a inspiration of how better future only exist in our mind. Because in reality, nothing is better. It still always the same. We can only slowly develop new modern bit by bit.
It's sad and true. If we did find something that could somehow fix everything, somebody would be greedy and stupid enough to mess it all up and bring us back to the beginning...
@@TheKillah98 No,No, I was simply stating that something that could save thousands of lives, like vaccines, once taken for granted, myths about them pop up, and lead to the death of many, both children and adults.
Automatically I think of antidepressants. They can work “too” well and you feel no motivation or emotions if you take too high of a dose. “If every pork chop were perfect, we wouldn’t have hotdogs.” “When everyone’s super, no one will be.”
If people get tired of those pork chops, they’d make hotdogs anyway, just of much higher quality. And if everyone’s super, you can develop yours to be efficient in the way you want it to be; just because two people have the same powers, that doesn’t mean that one could be worlds more proficient with it than the other. (Though, I suppose if you have the original Cream, you could apply it directly to your brain and develop a prodigious nature for these kinds of things later, repeat if it doesn’t feel like enough the first time)
i think one of the most interesting aspects of this story is the fact that the creator made the cream duplicate itself instead of just duplicating it in secret and selling it for more profit, the cream clearly had high demand, everyone was using it, shows the creators intention in a subdue way, he didn’t want to make profit he just wanted to save the world :(
The cooperates didn't like it,so they brought a bunch of cap in to scare the people. They had no proof but the fear injected into the people was enough. It made them re-evalutae a perfectly fine thing into something terrible It's a real hard message to hear
Every time I watch this it stuns me. The brilliance at display here is overwhelming, and I'm entirely convinced this is the greatest thing Firth has ever made. Bravo, David. Bravo.
on a more serious note, this is brilliant, because from the get go you expect the twist to be that cream would be some form of mind control serum or something along those lines, but then subvert that and end it in a more realistic manor by having the rich and powerful try to ban it to push their own agenda paralleling how some people are trying to ban vaccines or gmo's in our own world.
this reminds me immediately of how once the phillips company had invented the perfect lightbulb that lasted so long that people would purchase it and save a lot of money. they wouldnt even need to worry about buying it once again owing to how longlasting it was. but when they realised that people would just buy this lightbulb in bulk and never buy another one from them again, and reduce their profits, they added flaws to their lightbulbs and decreased their efficiency to ensure that people would return to their stores for subsequent purchases thereof. just goes on to prove how the media works hand-in-hand with the rich and manipulates the truth to further the interests of the upper class.
This is probably the most lucid and tame David Firth film, and yet simultaneously the most horrifying. A feat worth more recognition than I can properly bestow
Because its based on principle of the modern world and powerful elite something that would get rid of perpetual suffering (Cream) wouldn't be allowed to exist freely as seen when the big wealthy boys take it out world wide
Jesus loves you! I warn you of your sins, repent and believe the Gospel! If you love Him then keep His commandments! MAKE THE CHOICE, JESUS OR THE WORLD, JESUS IS ETERNAL, THE WORLD IS PASSING AWAY.
@@jessegoonerage3999 except this video fails to portray capitalism as it shows a company actively hurt its own profits by making its product freely self-duplicating instead of using scarcity to hike up prices.
It’s just to repair thing I mean they should rename it to rebuild gel instead of naming it cream because it doesn’t have a full name of it self you know why not name it rebuild gel it could be a perfect name for a rebuild product to fix any issues and errors and ruin stuff
I genuinely thought this was going to be a message of having no problems removing the spice of life and making everything boring but i was wrong Great twist
When this animation was released,I was really scared of it because of that art style But after all these years I finally realized this is a masterpiece
Omg same, it used to seem so much more disturbing when I was younger as it’s sort of the same style as salad fingers - but now I recognise the reality of it and how true of a reflection it is of our society
"Is he dead ?" "No, he exponentially improved himself physically and mentally to a zenith of absolute perfection" Well, that sounds like dying with extra steps
One aspect of this video thats overlooked is how people started to become depressed and their lives pointless after being handed everything they ever could want so easily.
@@Kurkanos which is what im referring to. The "magic" was doing things for yourself and accomplishing things through effort. Cream gave you everything you want without needing any of that effort.
@@snowhitechristmas No, the thing that is really weird, im founding like 800k channels with verified and with many suscribers, but no video...how they get those subs? lol anyway the video is sad
This is the perfect example of human stupidity. No matter how good something is people will spread rumors and essentially erase it leading to more bad then good
If you did something contributal and that can help everyone people who disagree are gonna wait until you made a small mistake making it a big misinformation to others and let other people hate it. When you did not make mistakes and make it a near perfection(like the cream) those greedy rich people who got their money in bad ways such as pollution or deforestation I think are trying hard to push the people to their standards and make a good person punished in harmful ways while the rich goes to their normal ways being greedy.
@@SamuelBlack84 yeah because rockets that go to space, weapons that instantly kill, and ever improving health that stretches our life span is going nowhere right?
Moral : everything could become perfect and there will still be some people who find a problem with it whether motivated by greed, power, selfishness and other things..
@SleepyVixx tbh the rich people are the ones who are evil they want to be on top (its from another comment btw) because they are selfish . this cream madness is actually too much panic and crazy people are the ones who were too scared apreading messages or either the cream were poisoned.
@@thalesvondasos contrary to popular belief rich does not equal evil. Take some time to disconnect from the media, you might actually experience independent thought.
Its the powerfull ppl not the media. Media is just a tool. Its sad bacause this happened multiple times with many good and cheap products. They make things shittier so you would buy more.
We had to be honest, this is the reality in these days. When someone is inventing things that can actually solve perennial issues in the world and salvage it, the powerful will f*cked it up...It just so sad..
Kind of like what Rockefeller did with "Alternative" medicine and how there are several cures for Cancer but that information is suppressed... because like where is the money in that 🤷🏽♀️
More likely the powerful will just keep it for themselves, but if something like Cream was actually invented I don't think people would give a sh*t anymore to keep it away from other people.
Cream is something that fixes “everything” but the one that it can’t fix are the people and the few 1% who focus more on their greed then other people’s happiness
Honestly I find the ending a bit unrealistic. If it really could duplicate everything it would duplicate itself infinitely, leading to a massive growing ocean of cream and light energy, engulfing the earth but not the vacuum surrounding it, since that is not a thing.

on a more serious note, this is brilliant, because from the get go you expect the twist to be that cream would be some form of mind control serum or something along those lines, but then subvert that and end it in a more realistic manor by having the rich and powerful try to ban it to push their own agenda paralleling how some people are trying to ban vaccines or gmo's in our own world.

"Three great forces rule the world: stupidity, fear and greed."
-Albert Einstein.
Never heard of that quote, but I'll believe it.
Physicists are still searching for the Grand Unified Theory that will unite these three fundamental forces with gravity.

this reminds me immediately of how once the phillips company had invented the perfect lightbulb that lasted so long that people would purchase it and save a lot of money. they wouldnt even need to worry about buying it once again owing to how longlasting it was. but when they realised that people would just buy this lightbulb in bulk and never buy another one from them again, and reduce their profits, they added flaws to their lightbulbs and decreased their efficiency to ensure that people would return to their stores for subsequent purchases thereof.
just goes on to prove how the media works hand-in-hand with the rich and manipulates the truth to further the interests of the upper class.
This is probably the most lucid and tame David Firth film, and yet simultaneously the most horrifying. A feat worth more recognition than I can properly bestow
Because its based on principle of the modern world and powerful elite
something that would get rid of perpetual suffering (Cream) wouldn't be allowed to exist freely as seen when the big wealthy boys take it out world wide

The scary thing about this is not how the miracle cream affects everything, but the reality of how society treat things
It can fix everything except capitalism.
Lol
@@jessegoonerage3999 except this video fails to portray capitalism as it shows a company actively hurt its own profits by making its product freely self-duplicating instead of using scarcity to hike up prices.
It’s just to repair thing I mean they should rename it to rebuild gel instead of naming it cream because it doesn’t have a full name of it self you know why not name it rebuild gel it could be a perfect name for a rebuild product to fix any issues and errors and ruin stuff
Well yeah that's the whole point of the video
Message delivered in this animation:
The goal of a human is not being perfect, it's to be better than everyone else.
Without worry adrenaline and dopamine cannot be produced therefore happiness is impossible
I genuinely thought this was going to be a message of having no problems removing the spice of life and making everything boring but i was wrong

This is the perfect example of human stupidity. No matter how good something is people will spread rumors and essentially erase it leading to more bad then good
If you did something contributal and that can help everyone people who disagree are gonna wait until you made a small mistake making it a big misinformation to others and let other people hate it. When you did not make mistakes and make it a near perfection(like the cream) those greedy rich people who got their money in bad ways such as pollution or deforestation I think are trying hard to push the people to their standards and make a good person punished in harmful ways while the rich goes to their normal ways being greedy.

More likely the powerful will just keep it for themselves, but if something like Cream was actually invented I don't think people would give a sh*t anymore to keep it away from other people.

Honestly I find the ending a bit unrealistic. If it really could duplicate everything it would duplicate itself infinitely, leading to a massive growing ocean of cream and light energy, engulfing the earth but not the vacuum surrounding it, since that is not a thing.
I like the quotation marks around everything, but it literally can fix anything and everything, including mental things like personalities and greed.
