A big thanks to @relvean5626 for helping me escape rendering hell and editing this together. Without you, this wouldn't be possible. Also, to @MiraSnelder for composing the music for this, and @ErasmusMagnusR for doing a ton of the heavy lifting on the subtitles.

Thanks to this site for helping me collect these clips! Give them some support!: https://filmot.com/
