this is the movie from the perspective of the kid that sniffed the marker

honestly, everything by bo should be titled "what."

I hate so much how there’s no beat drop even though it always sounds like it’s about to hit

I'm guessing bo didn't have a good eighth grade experience.

I clicked on this and was like, "Damn. Someone really is a fan of this movie and took their time to make this. The internet really is crazy." And then I scrolled down and saw this was posted by Bo and I was just, like, Nevermind.

This beat is like when you gotta sneeze and the shit won’t come out

for anyone who wants to know how this was done. A combination of a rotoscoping software called ebsynth with a neural style transfer AI.

When people ask me what a severe panic attack feels like, I direct them to this song

2018, Where a director can shitpost about his own movie We live in golden times

Art isn’t dead anymore :)

This music feels like a panic attach but everyone I around and you can't leave so your just kind if sat there waiting for it to end but the panic just keeps building up

Millions of years of evolution brought us to the point that I was able to decipher any of this. Wild

When you take three vitamin gummies instead of two

"this edible ain't shi-"

This looks like someone fell asleep and had a highschool nightmare while inside OmegaMart

This hurt my eyes, not physically but mentally.

"sir, what drugs have you taken?" "yes"

*bo wants to make you feel comfortable*

Somehow, this comforts me. Life is so awful and confusing and disgusting, that when I see this I feel like there’s so much chaos my life isn’t so bad anymore. The music and the imagery also perfectly match how I feel as I’m forced to grow up and see the world for how it is, and how my transition to high school feels like. I love it so much.

The utter horror of the aftermath of taking advantage of the neurochemical drama of our children. Inside is wonderful, taking a sleep for the intermission. The internet and life overall, can and is, overwhelming. You're not alone. You are all not alone. Thank you Bo.

what freshman act like they see after being given fake weed:

Me: *hits funny bone* My entire nervous sistem:

"this LSD ain't shit" *two minutes later:*

As a middle schooler now entering eighth grade, I'll say this is completely accurate.

Roses are red My mom is gay Bo is back But is He okay?

this both sounds and looks like a panic attack

This reminds me of those illusion books where you gotta blink a lot or something and you'll see a fancy picture.

Honestly apart from the fact it’s surreal and eye straining, the patterns, especially those rainbow puppy stickers at the beginning definatley ring a bell in my childhood when every girl brought them to school and would vandalize everything with them. It was like, adorable glitter vomit all over the school lockers lmao

pov: you sniffed too many sharpies in school and now is just trying to get home

good thing this is here

This is exactly what anxiety looks like emotionally and mentally and I wish i could thank Bo personally for this masterpiece of experience. Easily one of the best movie trailers of all time.

When I originally heard this song on spotify it did not make me feel anxious at all. It just sounded cool, thumpy and playful. Then I saw Eigth Grade and then this and now I realise it's apparently supposed to be this stress inducing anxiety fest. What's wrong with my musical perception? 😂

Me: *drinks lava lamp water * Me for the next 10 hours:

Biblical angel: "Do not be afraid" Also biblical angel:

I watched this movie on a plane and it kept me thinking for the whole flight. I am a great fan of Bo Burnham and seeing this side of him, other than his great comedy, was eye opening 😮 Great job!!

So this is what LSD feels like.

My eighth grade experience involved less acid lmao

He came everyone, he came back. Welcome Home.

Thank you for making this movie

This is beautiful, objectively speaking, what fantastic use of images, software and creativity. Keep it up, amazing work

This is Bo officially telling us that he's had a mental breakdown lol

Bo we are really happy that you remembered your youtube password, but are you okay?

This is such a great video glitch video. Props to whomever put this together. I've seen people play around with video/encoder glitching like this, but never to this level. Also I've never seen the 3d scene type of glitches. I am guessing those are CGI made to look like gltiches?

This is incredibly beautiful. Thank you.

The thumbnail looks like a Lisa Frank coloring book cover

My legs after sitting on the toilet for too long

This is a fever dream I don’t mind having

Wow :D I used to have lot of sleep paralysis experiences and hypnagogic hallucinations back in my toughest college years. And sometimes, if "lucky", it was in colors and even seemed to emit light. The ones I remember the most looked exactly like at 0:33 !! It's the first time I see something that looked so much like it.

2016 “I can’t fit my hand inside of a Pringle can.” 2018:

For anyone wondering how this was made, it was made with AI Deep Dream Style Transfer and Datamoshing. Extremely creative use!

I didn’t know eighth graders did LSD

Incredible movie - thanks for the work!

This psychedelic trip was brought to you by Raid: Shadow Legends

Oh, word, Bo's back, and he's ... *...* behaving as expected

THIS IS SO COOOOL

Holy fuck, I was NOT expecting that today

*_When you rub your eyes too hard_*

This made me feel really uncomfortable and strangely claustrophobic.

This one of the best trailers of all time still to this dayeternity

This is what my anxiety feels like. It just slips through the cracks and before you know it you're riddled with it. No grand finale, highest of highs, just a long winded platue of that funny feeling

I think that cup of lighter fluid you told me to drink is kicking in...

Added to the “watch this while on drugs” playlist. Thank Bo

Trippy AF even when you're sober

Adore people finding this brilliant piece of art after they have watched clips from Inside. Highly recommend watching the film, it has a lot less acid than this though.

My brain cells when they create larger Pringle cans

Imagine if people didn’t follow Bo and never heard of Eighth Grade before watching this

never before in my life have I felt more dread set upon me

You know what this gives me the same energy as the elephant scene from dumbo that’s awesome!

Who deep fried Bo's brain

One of the most beautiful, poignant trailers I have ever seen in my life. Absolutely stunning work and I’m watching this movie tonight based on this. Incredible.

This is anxiety inducing. And it's made so well.

What an incredible piece of editing

reminds me of that scene when dumbo was drunk except this is more intense

Guess who's back, Back again. Bo's on crack Tell a friend

The visuals of this are incredible ':D Even tho everything is the background, you can still make out shapes, which is very trippy. I am keen to overthink and that's why I understood this as "Your life has to be art to be seen as good", tying in to social media because i know Bo loves the topic of social media influence and art in general. I am most probably wrong, but well.

only recently started coming to terms with my anxiety. didnt realize why exactly i kept coming back to this song but i think i do now

Do you think god stays in heaven because he too, lives in fear of what he has created?

im so excited to show this to my friend when hes high

For anyone wondering, the song is not ' EG MAIN CUT YT h264', it's Nautilus by Anna Meredith

Yeah I agree on the anxiety thing, I get major anxiety just sitting there. Especially near the end, those high constant trumpet notes along with the repetitive pattern of the low brass make me feel like I’m being watched

Bo Burnham: *breathes* his fans: spread the word the lord has spoken!!!!!

emoji movie 2 is lookin pretty good

Very creative and abstract I like it. Definitley feels like 8th grade captured a lot of basic but common feelings of that 13-14 year old age range

Weird core king in our hearts forever and always ❤❤❤❤

As an eighth grader I can confirm: yes.

that was the longest two minutes and thirty three seconds of my life

Bo your creativity and raw yet extremely insightful, artful expression of the fucked up nature of life is what will always keep me coming back. Please, be well and continue to do what inspires and fulfills you. Much love!

The tune in this is so terrifying? I love it. I think back to how much I hated middle school and this song really fits lol

When you turn on Minecraft's super secret settings

My friend: I dreamed about kissing my crush! My dreams:

This is beautiful.

This is one of the coolest and most headache-inducing things I’ve ever seen, I love it.

how it feels to chew 5gum

This seems like the type of thing that would be hidden in a video game's coding to have some hidden plot line. Does that mean that 8th grade has some hidden plot line?

If this was the only promotional trailer of the movie, I would've watched it immediately.

I just learned that this style of trippy transitions is called data moshing

This is absolutely natural and the weirdest f-ing thing I’ve ever seen.

*this is what happens when you eat a bath bomb*

Nobody: My last braincell during a test:

This is a fever dream and I love it!
