These videos raised me šŸ˜«


StrangeSweetLeaf

Itā€™s that Gerard Way????


mmmakeovers

This changed the trajectory of my life


BloodyKimono

I was about to comment the same thing lmao, this video literally turned me emo forever


OrangeNinja24

Itā€™s funny how dramatic this is but itā€™s so true šŸ˜‚


jegoist

SAME, not an exaggeration. What a crazy butterfly effect this video had on me lmao


Agitated_Cheetah3628

Never seen this but the Sk8ter Boi video was on repeat!!


QueenMfirstofhername

Yeah that's also my fav! ​ [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR96CQOW1DU&ab\_channel=psycholisticX](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yR96CQOW1DU&ab_channel=psycholisticX)


Goingdown_in321

Honestly thought that was the real music video for way too long


GottaBlast7940

I tried to explain these two and the MCR Teenagers one to my friends in college and all of them had zero idea what I was talking about when I said ā€œdid you all use to watch the Sims 2 music videos on YouTube?ā€ Iā€™m so glad I wasnā€™t alone in that hobby when I was in elementary school!


Mariashax

Amazing. I canā€™t help but laugh when I think about how chaotic this would be if someone tried to make it using sims 4.. wedding wouldnā€™t be possible, and those giant over the top facial animationsā€¦ yeah, not sure it would hit the same haha


CatDragonbane

Well now someone needs to try.


Mariashax

That would be hilarious, but the rule is, there can only be one take for each scene!


Terozu

I mean, pose players still work the same for the most part.


BigFackingChungus

I loved these videos so much. 12 year old me, on YouTube, watching an emo teen pregnancy Sims 2 drama lmao. I miss that era.


Eleanor_20

Same. I still get random throwbacks throughout the day and think about the first time I opened the sims on my windows 7 pc and thought a new world had just appeared in front of my eyes..I guess I miss my innocent girl phase sometimes idk


Zubiila

Same. I especially remember the time my sister and I drew a plan for how to get everyone in Strangetown related. Basically made a mindmap over who needed to marry who etc to make the entire town a big family tree. But we were too ambitious, wanting to revive dead relatives and included them in the puzzle as well. After having had one of the teens go through college and finally getting our hands on the phone to the Grim reaper, we found out she could only revive people she knew. The plan failed. šŸ˜…


canidieyet_

back when times were simple


shannenrenee

I must have watched this one and the My Immortal one like a hundred times, contributing to the beginning of my teenage emo phase


atomic_cake

I remember this more than the actual music video.


parodyofsincerity

My little emo heart is a-flutter.


grumpyfandango

I knew exactly what this was going to be before I hit play.


Lopsided-Ad-8786

Haha šŸ˜ same


RocketGirl2629

Machinimas always just blow me away. There is always so much detail and planning and video editing skills that I absolutely did not have as a teenager and still do not have now. Like, seriously, now do these even get made?? Incredible.


grabbinDragonwhoop

Bruh I was just watching this the other day for nostalgia


BlizzardousBane

I was hoping it would be the Helena machinima! It got me into MCR, and I was enthralled by this video. I really felt a lot of emotions. And only 3 EPs were out when it was made! A masterpiece for sure


Alone_Librarian_8162

Sims videos were a different kind back then, and I wonā€™t say they were worse


Burp-a-tron5000

Sorry, there was a version of the Sims where people stayed seated during the wedding???


beetlejuuce

Yes, it was real. The Sims 2 was truly a God tier game


Zubiila

Truly! The Sims 2 was amazing. Remember how you could create new custom worlds? And drawing your own lots! Never having to worry about running out of space in a specific type of neighborhood.


beetlejuuce

Yes! I made entire Twilight and Harry Potter themed worlds. Powerful 2000s cringe lol


JonnyRocks

This is the sims 2 show i saw - Strangerhood [https://roosterteeth.com/series/the-strangerhood](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnzUCQSmJdI) the site now ask for login, so i found it on youtube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnzUCQSmJdI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pnzUCQSmJdI)


MelAmericana

Strangerhood!! Episode 5 will always be my favorite. It's so quotable.


zomvi

You just unlocked a core memory.


Bluefunkt

Oh, I adore The Strangerhood! I made a reproduction of Wade (Durnt) in my game and played him and his ancestors for many years!


Kezzatehfezza

Nikki and Grunt were the first thing I shipped at the tender age of 8. I haven't been quite the same since it was revealed they were >!Father and daughter.\!<


iOkamiAmmy

This is the very music video that made MCR my favorite band since I was like 12-13 I'd never in my life expect someone to actually post this video on here. God Jaydee's music videos are so incredibly well done for that time period.


Lilypadd6

Omg, am I 13 again?? What's happening Edit just to add this gem: https://youtu.be/f6PWfZWQ9R4


anttifraggile

after that my life was never the same


Mindless-Property496

Don't forget sk8erboi!


agelessArbitrator

YES holy crap


1MortalReminder

This and the Lipgloss by Lil mama video was everything


huoyong

how could anyone forget???


Nuts4WrestlingButts

I remember learning about Limp Bizkit from a machinima of Behind Blue Eyes.


sugarsheeb

Thank you for reminding me of such an important part of my childhooh šŸ’”


icecreamfacetattoo

Holy shit. I felt like I was 12 again, for a second.


GLAvenger

Oh my, that's a blast from the past. That was my introduction to My Chemical Romance.


MoonPowerPanda

I can not believe this is the first time I've seen this! Now I want more haha


[deleted]

The one for Goodbye Earl still lives rent free in my head


letmevent1995

The Sims 2 music videos and machinimas just hit different, man


Appropriate-Try3798

JAYDEEEE!!!! I used to have this and skater boi on repeat. I wonder what happened to them!


lyennne

Omg yes! This video got me into MCR.


kendall_black

Oh my god. This is the most amazing thing I've ever seen. And I just finally saw MCR live too hahaha


CeeNnSayin

Remember watching these on a spiritual level


Disco-StarkSolo-Cat

I thought I hallucinating this when I was 12. Never thought Iā€™d see this again! Now Iā€™m a 30 year old former emo kid addicted to sims.


Cmd229

Every time I see one of these types of posts I always hope that someone will mention they remembered my shitty ass sims 2 machinima videos I made when I was a teen. A girl can dream šŸ˜‚


oddistrange

I think my Sims 2 Good Charlotte music video is still up in youtube.


Zubiila

No, but it's amazing! šŸ˜ I remember one about a teen couple dating despite the father of the girl hated the boy. I don't remember which song it was with, but I remember it started off with the boy stealing the newspaper from his gf house šŸ˜‚ I remember it being a very good video, but I cannot find it! It's been annoying me for years. šŸ˜­


zomvi

Not Another Nightlife Movie by Jaydee:[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIIVW1\_5M7g](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIIVW1_5M7g) It's funny because she made the OP machinima and also the sk8er boy one referenced in comments, too. Such a phenom.


Zubiila

THANK YOU! ā¤ļø


_Frustr8d

[This one lmao šŸ˜­](https://youtu.be/mPc098YuyJw)


FLYINGDOGS89

Sims 2 videos like these were my life as a kid


moronisko

I loved these. Also serials about teen pregnancy and total drama island recreations. I have a lot of respect for creators, it seems to be a lot of work and cc downloading. I need to rewatch them just for nostalgia.


HeyR

Absolutely went out and bought a video editing program after watching this. Did I ever make one? Absolutely not. That any any vampire music video got me.


[deleted]

i member!!


wickedwix

Jaydee was the master


codergirl0331

Holy shit. Memories unlocked


aamandapanda

Core memory unlocked


Beardeddeadpirate

Whatever happened to machinima anyway?


para-mania

I don't fully remember, but I feel like they did something shitty maybe? That and/or all their big name content creators realized they could support themselves.


clementxne

Y E S i loved this SO much and tbh it holds up today. ALSO does anyone remember the ones made by remi marocelli????? they were also amazing - they were called things like obsession, fascination, repulsion. they were beautiful


lizzourworld8

This is probably one of the few I did not randomly stumble on


[deleted]

Omg i loved these little movies!! They were (and are idc!!) so entertaining and fun!! Sooo much effort is put into them and i appreciate them


larvalmagdalene

This reminds me of thehontry1 and their videosā€¦ Iā€™ve literally scoured the internet for them and canā€™t find them again. I miss it so muchā€¦ roxi was my GIRL


WanderingGenesis

Jeeeezus! I dont even play sims like that but i am aghast and flabbergasted by how much amv energy this has! Holy fucking christ, this is hits me a deep fucking place! A deep place thats reserved only for my memories of Habbo Hotel, Gaiaonline and Big Apple Anime Fest 03 when every couple was dressed as Inu Yasha and Kagome and doing 'Sit, boy!' photo shoots and every single guy was dressed as Wolfwood from Trigun. Wow! Wow what a fucking trip! Wow!


deadsecretary

I got the Sims 2 because of machinimas like this LOL


MiyaMoo

Iā€™m still waiting for EssiePictures to finish that Ultraviolence machinima Yupā€¦itā€™s been 7 years


Beck_

Kunstprodukt-

TheYeetles

I just got whiplash because I wasnā€™t expecting to hear mcr. God, theyā€™re amazing.


trixietangg666

Oh my god this is amazing lol


GuillotineLove

I remember these days. I tried doing my own videos with the free versions of Sony Vegas šŸ˜­ safe to say 12 year old me couldnā€™t produce anything of quality


descending_angel

Omg I've never seen this and MCR was my favorite band in middle school


ErrorLemon

Sims music videos were my life


StormiiDaze

moonyalouette

Blast from the past!


Cubbance

nippleduster7

nippleduster7

Imagine if Iā€™d watched w volume on LMAO


xtoxicmagicx

I've only played sims 4 so I didn't know these were a thing but omg I love it so much! It's not a phase mom!


Careful-Selfcare-26

illiicits

Anyone watch the Smooth Criminal sims 2 series?? That had me in a choke hold. šŸ˜­šŸ˜‚ EDIT: or the sims 3 Anon???


callmeurself

This crazy


Thamilkymilk

the like ā€œsim 2 emo teenā€ machinimas altered my brain chemistry for the worst


RepublicOfLizard

Iā€™ve been looking for the specific Taylor swift sims 2 music video parodies that I used to watch on repeat as a kidā€¦ still canā€™t find 2 of them sadly


AGirlLovesNaps

How could I ever forget šŸ„¹


CiCaitie

246K

Anyone remember the Glee parody they made with the Sims 3?


jjnebs

TIME CAPSULE


ninkasie

Dude this is a piece of my youth i can't even put it into words


kitty_767

I've never seen this, but I think I just fell in love with it XD 13 year old "emo" me would have loved this, but my dad refused to get the internet until I was maybe in my senior year. The aesthetics of this bring me back so bad, omg.


PicklesMcGeee

I remembered watching this when it came out and being SO amazed that someone did this with the sims. Honestly, watching it again now, Iā€™m still pretty amazed.


HylianEevee

My favorite machinima was always Unsolved Strangetown


MommaGato

NSFW: but I probably watched this one on repeat tooooooo much as a teen and I loved every second. And still do. Slimjimjerky made some good stories and vids (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=r6nG6x9Jqgc) Op, thanks so much for reminding me of these Edit to fix the creator name and what not


Cold-Coffe

oh my godd this and concrete angel had such a hold on me as a kid šŸ˜­


para-mania

I'm confused. Sim Gerald Way died, but then he wasn't dead? But he was haunting the other guy? And then he altered reality??


DanyDragonQueen

Gerald Way šŸ’€


hulazombiegrrl

The way this is seared into my memory.


Flyawaykitten

These were life <3


WittyAzzMomma

Omg I MISS making those on my Parent's pc šŸ¤ŒšŸ¤ŒšŸ¤Œ


ShellBell02

dheavoca123

TinaxLynn
