Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

SO it's been a busy few weeks for me, that Watchmen thing did pretty good business, I'd love to say I'm working on a series to follow it up but I'm afraid that would be horseshit.

Thanks those of you who came out in support of Chuck's New Tux winning for best movie of 2008. I owe you both a beer.

...I know, I didn't deserve to win but I'm not going to look a gift tank down the barrel. Thanks to Tom, the voters and Mindchamber for his awesome video, it was a fantastic honour.

THE PRESENT

I just read a headline on msn news that said "Boy survives 15 inch rod through eye, huge sandstorm AND CHIMP ATTACK!!".

I was very disappointed to read that these were actually three separate stories...

BACK TO THE FUTURE

A while ago I talked about something called 'Killgar's Kwest' which was supposed to be an introductory episode to a potential series called 'Starbarians' but real life got in the way...

Well it's back on track... except now it's just called 'STARBARIANS' (see below). It's my final college project due for May/June so the NG release shouldn't be long after, that might sound like a good long while away but when I sit down and attempt to do an animation time effectively disappears and the next thing you know it's 2015 and Griff Tannen is tearing shit up on a hoverboard outside. . .Fuck you Griff Tannen.

I'm currently failing college due to the amount of time I took out to make Watchmen, so I need to pull my boots up and kick some ass with this new toon. Fingers crossed.

I have another toon finished which will definitely get a release on my youtube channel some time after April - not sure if I'll upload it to NG though as it isn't my best - I wouldn't want to WIN ANY MORE AWARDS LIKE A TOTAL JERK.

Also, I'll be attending the UK Web Comix Thing along with Eddsworld this Saturday, come along (even if you live in Sacramento) and buy a printed version of some shit you can view online for free.

Love to all

HappyHarry87...Oh hold up

I want to hear about these chimps

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:36 PM HappyHarry responds:

I'm sure it was the usual "Severe mauling of nose and testicles" type antics they usually get up to when someone forgets to lock the cage door. Little buggers.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:25 PM SamIam says:

Congrats about getting the 87 off and that other stuff...

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:38 PM HappyHarry responds:

It's like a huge disgusting corpuscle has been removed from my back....no wait that's horrible...

It's like a huge weight has been lifted from my shoulders.

Yes, yes that's much better.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:27 PM FrozenFire says:

New news is indeed good news.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:48 PM HappyHarry responds:

Thanks man :)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:27 PM Wonchop says:

Yay chimps. :3

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:48 PM HappyHarry responds:

Gotta love chimps, especially when they're riding segways...

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:30 PM MERFdaCOW says:

So I'm reading Watchmen, and Rorschack go's into this bar called "Happy Harry's" to look for the guy who killed The Comedian. Coincidence? I think not!

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:35 PM HappyHarry responds:

I think so!

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:36 PM mongoid says:

Wow... 80's hair is back. :-D

I look forward to seeing the final project!

:-)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:42 PM HappyHarry responds:

Me too man, if I ever finish!

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:36 PM Goat-Man says:

God that guy must have taken forever.
Animating him lifting his arm would take you to 2015 alone.
Looks awesome though.

And couldn't you use the Watchmen movie for marks?

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:41 PM HappyHarry responds:

Not that easy, my tutors know what I've been up to so I have a good excuse, but I can't use it to my advantage in any other way.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:44 PM 14hourlunchbreak says:

I pooped my pants in enjoyment.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:50 PM HappyHarry responds:

"Tell 14hourlunchbreak what you think of this comment!"

That always seems aggressive to me, like I'm gonna give you a piece of my mind and really let you have it or something. Thanks for dropping by dude.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 6:46 PM fluffkomix says:

I'm a complex guy.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:00 PM ThePortalGuru says:

Whoa. That guy has a big chin. You made my TV Guide with Saturday Morning Watchmen!

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:24 PM HappyHarry responds:

Haha, that's crazy. I've heard mention that it was in a few magazines but I'm yet to see any proof.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:05 PM pontyfaxjr says:

Thats some nice drawing right there.
I'm painfully jealous of you talented types

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:24 PM HappyHarry responds:

Oh pshawww :3

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:09 PM Pandaxe says:

So You did win the Tank award? AWESOME :D Congratz

That Metal Gear funnies thing was a prank >_>

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:25 PM HappyHarry responds:

I did wonder...

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:14 PM Starogre says:

i hope that character is actually a female because this drawing gave me a woody

Hahahahahahahaha

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:21 PM Mexifry says:

You and adam phillips tie for me as best quality animators on the site.

Definitely also on my top 10 list for content as well. :)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:29 PM HappyHarry responds:

I have NOTHING on Phillips, the man is a seasoned pro, and I'm a season 1 family guy knockoff.

Thanks for the comparison though :)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:28 PM ziom236 says:

Now my both favourite artists got to work together, couldn't think of anything else better so far. I couldn't go to see it, but o' well, truely good news.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:38 PM HappyHarry responds:

I'm only going so I can throat slam him through a table.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:33 PM hansari says:

Its in the UK?!

When will you grace us with your presence in America Harry?

Oh well, look forward to Starbarians. The image you posted almost makes it look like your attempting a serious non-comedic adventure story...but I know better :D

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:38 PM HappyHarry responds:

I can't promise anything but it's probable I'll be at Comicon '09.

As for the notion of me doing serious....LAWL!

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:38 PM Mexifry says:

Animation isn't all about quality.

YOu could be an amazing animator, but if what you put out was really boring, then what would be the point?

You might not be as good as him, but your videos are more entertaining/well written.

Take me for example.
I'm actually a very very mediocre animator, but I get awesome scores and a decent amount of hits for only having like 8 legit movie cause the stuff I put out is interesting and is different than the rest of the crowd.

I was really surprised to find out that people knew me on NG.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:41 PM slapjaw says:

QUEER

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:44 PM AtomicBottle says:

"Boy survives 15 inch rod through eye, huge sandstorm AND CHIMP ATTACK!!"

Damn, that would have been awesome.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 7:59 PM Kirbopher says:

Congrats on your success, lookin' forward to all of your new stuff :]

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:52 AM HappyHarry responds:

Thanks Kirb ;)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 8:11 PM Kweaks says:

I certainly think Chuck's New Tux deserved to win.
I mean, granted, it's short (which is why you might have had doubts about it) but you managed to get the hilarity and awesomeness condensed into it. The first time I saw that, the ending made me cry... of laughter.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:52 AM HappyHarry responds:

Yeah but Bambee was funnier, and longer, with more animation.

How much is it to attend?

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:39 AM HappyHarry responds:

Just £4

Mar. 25, 2009 | 8:28 PM haipeoplez says:

I'm not gonna lie, the mask for some random reminds me of Majoras mask. But it looks so sexy. I must touch it.
You're gonna do more than pass that college. You're going to DESTROY IT!(yes that was a metaphor. Had to be safe based on what happened earlier.)

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:53 AM HappyHarry responds:

lolwut

Mar. 25, 2009 | 8:35 PM Emanhattan says:

I never saw your watcmen cartoon

Mar. 25, 2009 | 8:55 PM Nogfish says:

GAY BAR!

Congrats on everything, I'm sure the Starbarians will help pull you out of the mucky muck

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vMKN1 tYknE

I remember in London you mentioned wishing you hadn't added the 87 on the end, good to see your wish came true haha.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:58 AM HappyHarry responds:

You've got a lotta guts Nogfish...

Thanks dude, that's inspiring stuff.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 9:07 PM sucho says:

pfft. 87 was a good year, how can you turn your back like it NEVER HAPPENED

Mar. 25, 2009 | 9:21 PM friedrice00 says:

Mar. 25, 2009 | 9:28 PM ZekeySpaceyLizard says:

my head is itching make it dance

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:58 AM HappyHarry responds:

Confusing comment is confusing.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 9:52 PM I-smel says:

Mar. 25, 2009 | 10:07 PM Fawx says:

Mar. 25, 2009 | 10:16 PM Kajenx says:

Um, that's fuxing amazing...

Mar. 25, 2009 | 10:40 PM Spark-Pro says:

LOL what MERFdaCOW said, I thought the exact same thing when I saw it! I'm almost done reading Watchmen, and Saturday Morning Watchmen keeps getting better as I read the book.

Mar. 28, 2009 | 5:04 AM HappyHarry responds:

Thanks man :)

Mar. 25, 2009 | 10:53 PM RobotTaco says:

I have, in all actuality, had a fifteen-ich rod go through my eye, while in a sand storm, while being attacked by a chimp. True story.

Mar. 28, 2009 | 5:04 AM HappyHarry responds:

I got sand in my eye while being attacked by a 15 inch chimp called Rod.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 10:58 PM JakBaronKing says:

Who's dat freak-lookin' dude in the picture?

Mar. 28, 2009 | 5:03 AM HappyHarry responds:

Killgar.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 11:10 PM NicotineMilk says:

Hey Harry, congrats on being awesome. I have a quick question that I WAS HOPING YOU COULD ANSWER! How do you keep the file sizes on your movies so low? New Tux was like 2.1mb? What gives? How do you do that? I simply MUST know, OMG (but seriously, tell me).

Mar. 28, 2009 | 5:02 AM HappyHarry responds:

Optimize your sound, 56kpbs is pretty good unless you're doing a music video and want to feature sound prominently.

Other than that all I can recommend is avoiding any unnecessary animation...but don't compromise your movie.

Mar. 25, 2009 | 11:19 PM Kenkaku says:

Good luck with college... I know it can be a real bitch, especially with all the different, small things you have to juggle. Just prioritize and you'll be just fine. Keep at it!

Mar. 26, 2009 | 1:45 AM Lalo says:

WHO ARE YOU WHERE'S HAPPYHARRY87

Mar. 26, 2009 | 2:21 AM Darkstrategy says:

How much would i have to pay you to sing at a party?

Mar. 28, 2009 | 4:54 AM HappyHarry responds:

I don't use money any more, I've reverted to a bronze age system of trade.

Two goats and a woman with child bearing hips should do the job.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 3:07 AM omegared says:

to quote you, you wrote-
"BACK TO THE FUTURE:

a while ago"

stop making flash and take up stand up comedy, then just be yourself. You will be famous. I MEAN Dane Cook does just that and look at him.

haha You jerk! you don't wanna post your crap on NG and win awards! Just die! Problem solved! JERK!

love
RB ... Hold on.

FUCK YOU!

Mar. 26, 2009 | 3:11 AM omegared says:

i just read my comment and i wasn't sure if it would come off as a joke. so here's a new more loving, less funny (TO ME) one.

love
FUCK YOU... Oh hold on

-insert joke about your name here-

Mar. 28, 2009 | 4:53 AM HappyHarry responds:

Haha, don't worry about offending me man, I lol'd.

Thanks for the comment.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 3:15 AM RubberNinja says:

FANTABULOUS.

Mar. 28, 2009 | 4:59 AM HappyHarry responds:

SPLENDORIFFIC.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 8:49 AM Eddache says:

I'll see you at the UK Webcomix Thing then (I'll be unable to miss you, I'll be sat next to Eddsworld).

Mar. 27, 2009 | 5:16 PM HappyHarry responds:

I'll be the one in full on blackface.

Mar. 26, 2009 | 4:05 PM hunte3r says:

poop

Mar. 26, 2009 | 5:53 PM psychicpebble says:

Wow looks good, but its gonna blow your grandpa's sagging testis to animate that. How long is it suppose to be?

Mar. 26, 2009 | 6:33 PM HappyHarry responds:

About 6 inches

Mar. 27, 2009 | 3:25 PM Araelyn says:

I'm very disappointed those were three different stories as well.
Though, I think I was pretty impressed by the 15 inch rod part.
Cock joke anyone?

Mar. 27, 2009 | 5:15 PM HappyHarry responds:

Always good to have one of the 3 girls on Newgrounds visit my page.

SHE WILL NEVER BE NAKED

Mar. 28, 2009 | 1:17 AM Araelyn says:

There's THREE?!
Where the fuck are the other two?
I thought I was the only one of my kind.

Mar. 28, 2009 | 4:52 AM HappyHarry responds:

I'm sure there must be another 2. But now you're here I have some questions...

This "Menstrual cycle" I hear so much about, is it comfortable to ride and how much does it cost?

Mar. 28, 2009 | 2:01 AM SlaughterTheCows says:

How's it going with the "Porn and Meat" thing?

Mar. 28, 2009 | 4:49 AM HappyHarry responds:

That's been finished for aaaaages, it's the thing I talk about uploading after April. No idea when I will.

Mar. 28, 2009 | 6:21 AM Pacmanic says:

yeh i chris o neil a girl or a boy? ps ur aswome love ur stufffff

Mar. 28, 2009 | 10:23 AM Araelyn says:

Well, the menstrual cycle has its ups and downs and unfortunately you can't come unless you have a vagina. Well, I guess you can come if you're brave and have a really good pair of galoshes and swim goggles.

Mar. 29, 2009 | 5:09 AM HappyHarry responds:

This "Vagina" I hear so much about, is it comfortable to ride and how much does it cost?

Mar. 28, 2009 | 2:28 PM psychicpebble says:

Also I just realized you submitted Saturday Morning Watchmen on my birthday.
:D, you made it just for me, didn't you?

Mar. 29, 2009 | 1:02 AM Scuzzfest says:

C+P: I would of gone to that shit had I know it exsisted :o

Why did you ever have the 87 on the end anyway?

Mar. 29, 2009 | 5:10 AM HappyHarry responds:

Some other tool was already called Happy Harry.

Mar. 29, 2009 | 3:34 PM Araelyn says:

Well, the vagina I speak of, it's probably pretty similar to that thing called a "butthole" that I'm sure you're familiar with.
:3

Mar. 29, 2009 | 6:37 PM HappyHarry responds:

A gay joke - how out of the box.

Mar. 29, 2009 | 7:07 PM Araelyn says:

Heyyyyy. I was just bein' silly.
Yer sarcasm hurts my heart, man. :[
Friends?

Mar. 30, 2009 | 7:03 AM HappyHarry responds:

I know you was.

:3 Fwends

Mar. 30, 2009 | 6:36 AM HellTutor says:

I like your movies and Chris and Harry was.... disturbing.
Well done.

Mar. 30, 2009 | 7:04 AM HappyHarry responds:

Erm, thanks but I wish people would look at who made what, i didn't make Chris and Harry, I just voiced my character.

Mar. 30, 2009 | 10:47 AM Araelyn says:

Eeeee
:3
That's good.
I was afraid one of my favourite Newgrounders thought I was a hater. :[
I think maybe I should stop comment whoring this post. I bet everyone else is getting annoyed at the chick from Newgrounds who can't shut her mouth.

Mar. 30, 2009 | 11:07 AM HappyHarry responds:

I'm sure they are, but this is my domain and I like the womanly presence. Oney alone isn't enough.

Mar. 30, 2009 | 11:40 AM Araelyn says:

Well, a womanly presence is what you shall have because I am continuing my comment whoring.
Awww, I'm sure Oney is enough to keep you going, what with all his gender changing keeping you on your toes.
"Your domain" whaddya like King Zora now?
BA DUM CHHH.

Mar. 30, 2009 | 12:03 PM HappyHarry responds:

King Zora the explorer?

Your nerdiness > My nerdiness, because I have no fucking idea who King Zora is.

Oh and I made a typo, I actually meant to say I like the womanly PRESENTS. So perhaps some chocolates or flowers are in order. What ya gonna get me?

Mar. 30, 2009 | 12:11 PM Araelyn says:

YOU DON'T KNOW WHO KING ZORA IS?!
You should be ASHAMED.
Except not.
I should be ashamed for playing hours upon hours of Zelda games by myself in my basement.

WHAT AM I GONNA GET YOU!?
More like, whaddya gonna get me cuz my birthday's in a week.
Tell ya what. You get me something, then I'll re-gift it and send it your way.
Sound good?

Mar. 31, 2009 | 9:28 AM bodvik says:

what happened to the first happyharry then?

Mar. 31, 2009 | 4:23 PM InvaderDib5455 says:

Please make a watchmen series!

Mar. 31, 2009 | 5:39 PM HappyHarry responds:

Okay.

Mar. 31, 2009 | 4:41 PM SirMax says:

Hey Harry, why did you loose the 87?

Mar. 31, 2009 | 5:40 PM HappyHarry responds:

Well it isn't Happy Harry 87 toons, so the 87 isn't appropriate or meaningful.

It was something I resorted to in my underdeveloped teenage brain back in 2004, I never liked it.

Apr. 1, 2009 | 10:01 PM WildfireHedgehog says:

I would love you if you made a series to Saturday Morning Watchmen, (even more :3)

Apr. 3, 2009 | 8:57 PM AuroraSilverwolf says:

Dude, you should so follow up the watchmen thing, I'll even help with the script if you want.

(I have no life outside of writing... No matter how grammatically incorrect that sentence was.)

Apr. 5, 2009 | 1:55 PM myselfbymyself says:

HIIIII!!!!!!
I'm a new prson to Newgrounds & I like your movies (that bee from your movie made me crap my pants, not because it acted funny but because it looked funny)

Scince I'm new please write back and help me get started :3

Apr. 8, 2009 | 8:44 AM RocketMan08 says:

The Watchmen animation is awesome. Not to mention the song! How does the music, you? or someone else?

Apr. 8, 2009 | 9:39 AM HappyHarry responds:

The music was by me, yes.
