  • Skibidi Toilet Film and TV Series Coming from Michael Bay

    I continue to hate this timeline we're in.

    If you needed any more proof that we are living in the worst timeline, I offer this news story to you: Michael Bay is reportedly working on a television show and film based on the Skibidi Toilet digital shorts.

    Yes, that Skibidi Toilet.

    This news was revealed during a podcast interview between Variety and former Paramount Pictures president Adam Goodman. Goodman shared the following information on the latest episode of Variety's "Strictly Business" podcast.

    We are absolutely in talks right now, both on the television side and the earliest conversations right now on the film side. But it’s not a be-all, end-all for us.
    Michael Bay is the director and producer behind a lot of explosion filled action films. He is known for his work on the Transformers films, The Rock, and Armageddon to name just a few of his works.

    Skibidi Toilet quickly became a viral internet sensation after its debut in early 2023. The series "depicts a conflict between singing human-headed toilets - the titular "Skibidi Toilets" - and humanoids with CCTV cameras, speakers, and televisions in place of their heads." The leader of the Skibidi Toilets is "G-Man" (aka: "G-Toilet") and together the Skibidi Toilets threaten humanity. This, of course, leads the Cameramen and Speakermen to form an alliance, each of which has a "Titan" that fights for them. That is until a Toilet parasite infected the Speaker Titan which caused it to then fight for the Skibidi Toilets. Don't worry though, because later on "TV-headed humanoids and their titan are introduced, and with their help, the Speaker Titan is broken free from mind control."

    There's like two more paragraphs for the "plot and characteristics" of Skibidi Toilet on its Wikipedia page that I just cannot bring myself to read through and relay to you. All you really need to know is that the series is made in Source Filmmaker, features assets from Valve owned titles, with dances that come from Fortnite. Common in the series is an unlicensed song that is a mashup of "Give it to Me" by Timbaland and "Dom Dom Yes Yes" by Biser King.

    Skibidi Toilet is most popular with Generation Alpha, those born after the early 2010s.

      I'll hate this timeline after the television series gets a second season, or after the movie gets a sequel. For now, I am merely slightly displeased with this timeline.

      I'm not really at all offended by this, reworded it's kinda cool that "popular thing some dude made in source filmmaker grabs the attention of Hollywood", seems the creator started making SFM animations 7 years ago so it's not unearned, however besides the song meme there doesn't seem to be much to it just toilet heads and other things being weird and exploding.
      I'm sure when removed from its more basic origins it will lose all of its "charm", but as long as they can licence the songs the kids won't care.

      As someone approaching 50, I watched some including later episodes, and found them quite entertaining (in a I found that old machinima, "Militia" by the Family God, discovered through CSNation, entertaining, way). Good for him.
