Call of Cthulhu Explained in Just 120 Seconds

[ProtoChimp]

What's Cthulu? Damn! If only there was some kind of image someone was using, an avatar if you will, so only I knew!

But that's the way of the world, I'm afraid..

I'm sorry what

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cthulhu

Oh wait, was that meant to be sarcasm and my sense of humor just temporarily died or am I just struck dumb by the awesome image of cthulu... um... err... Rleh pluf deh no wait thats not it. R'lyeh la flof leh fuck thats not it either. errm... uh... *screams and runs away*

 

[Fearzone]

Everybody make a sanity roll.

No, just kidding, that primer sucked. Go read it instead, it's not that long.

 

[ActionDan]

Possibly the best thing about the video though, is that as silly as it is, it's also quite informative, and gives a pretty good summary of the story, but at the same time makes you want to CUT OFF THE GIRLS MOUTH AND FEED IT TO A GIANT SQUID D:

Really, they could do with a more dark and sinister sound voice. Not an innocent "like, like, like, like" girl. RAGGRWARARAAFASJSFHLKJEG

Sinclose's avatar is Cthulu, so I was just making a joke about it.

Oh, sorry for ruining your joke there but my hap handered excuse is that I'm rather drunk.

Shit double post.

 

[oranger]

Yep, pretty much.

Although it doesn't let you imagine all the full horrors of a chibi C'thulhu bas relief.

I still don't get why people are frightened by Lovecraft's stories. Though CoCCotE made me shit my pants.

People are still a little freaked out by his stories because he describes a world in which man is basically powerless, and definitely NOT the oldest/strongest/smartest creature around.

 

[CK76]

My brain twitches anytime someone excessively and needlessly uses the word "like" so this video, while on my of my favorite stories, was grating.

You sort-of answered your own question . . .

 

[captainwillies]

I want to stab that girl so much. I really wish they used another archetype to present this.

 

[RJ Dalton]

Cthulhu was not evil, he was just uncaring, like all the Mythos entities. Cthulhu actually wasn't even aware of what the cults were doing; he just dreamed and people saw them and thought they were instructions and did what they thought they meant.
Why is this so hard to understand?

 

[Fatal-X]

I hate this girl's voice - after 50 seconds I turned the video off.

 

[duchaked]

hehe, Middle Earth. clever

 

[The Austin]

Cthulu is right up there with "the cake is a lie" of my list of meme's that need to die.

I'm pretty damn sick of hearing people scream "RYTH BITH POO POO SHIZ NIT GATH!"

Still, the video was kinda' funny.

 

[pjm]

Eh, I prefer:
Not as many "like"s.

I've never seen Cthulu so cuddly, where do we get the soft toys.

 

[ThaBenMan]

That was actually quite annoying. But I guess it's good if it turns more people on to Lovecraft. And their Dr.Zoidberg-looking interpretation of Cthulhu was kinda neat.

 

[DarkxReaper56]

Hell yeah! All praise Cthluhu and his awesomeness! ;-P

Anyone recall that dreadful pc game attempt they made at Call of Cthulhu? I remember being so excited to play that (especially considering they kept putting it back) and then they released some drivel.

 

[Glamorgan]

Decided half way through the video to pause it, as to not spoil the book, and immediately read it. It actually looks really good.
