After finding a huge audience with my video about Netflix’s Wednesday Addams, I now present to you a story about an obscure Wisconsin homebuilder who loved Disney and had a dream.
I honestly apologize to the few thousand folks who just subscribed, thinking this channel would cover topics that were either timely or well-known.

I literally just subsrcibed and you already posted a new video.
Hignite's passion and ambition was definitely something to admire. It is IMMENSELY sad that it seems inevitable that this art form is dying out or has been dead for awhile. Hand-drawn animation simply accomplished something CG has yet to perfectly capture, if it ever will. It was more organic. It exemplified a sort of humanity you just can't re-capture with a stylus and an electronic tablet. More than anything, I'm sad for the future generations that won't get to enjoy hand-drawn features and I pray that it doesn't go so far as to disillusion future kids or families from enjoying that craft (much like too many people nowadays won't watch films in black-and-white). Will they opt to watch Disney's live-action remakes instead? Even with inconsistent quality, they've shown no sign of stopping that trend. True, there have been some beautiful motion pictures created with CG animation, but there are many, MANY more timeless classics that we can only hope will stand the test of time, whether it be from the minds of Walt Disney, Don Bluth, Hayao Miyazaki, and anyone else who gave us some of our childhoods' most magical moments by putting pen to paper and creating an entire world of it.
I've heard stories of Disney suing daycares for having Disney characters painted on their walls I don't know how this guy's getting away with it considering he's advertising on TV
Funny obscure story, thanks to tale it to us.
This is super cool. I will definitely be looking more into this stuff now too. He should build a house with a classic Disney Store room in it. You know the one. With the giant screen playing stuff in the back behind a GIANT pit of plush toys.
This guy is way too cool ! Love it !
This channel is such a hidden gem. I ended up here for the analysis on Wednesday, but stayed for your eloquence, and the way you organize and vocalize your thoughts (and the puppet is such a charming detail).
As someone who loves to watch analysis videos I could watch yours for hours and still stay interested on the subject, i really hope you get many more subscribers, you really deserve it ❤️ and i do think this video was a wonderful use of your talents, keep up the great work
I waited the whole Video for the part, where Disney needlessly sued him into the ground. Kinda glad that didn’t happen 😁
Lol he doesn't look at all like Micky .
You deserve more views!
