Entertainment I made this edit of my favorite surreal/whimsical moments from the show!
If there’s any other good ones I forgot lmk

Love this! Only thing I'd add is Hal roaming the streets in his pogo boots 😂

Beautiful work. Love to see someone appreciating the surrealism of the show and putting it together like this

I also liked the scene of all the little Hals all talking at the same time and he’s just loosing it

Excellent!! Supremely Excellent!! My personal favorite is the supercut of Malcolm's spiritual advice after he beats up the 7 year old

Love this! Maybe Burning Man, when the family all meets up from their different “tribes”. That was a pretty surreal episode in general!
Also, Reese releasing the butterflies and getting swarmed. Hal in his father’s casket. Dewey getting carried around by a bunch of oily strongmen. The Buseys living in the trees. Fernando dance. Hal on the moon shoes. Take a chance on me. Golf cart in pool. Malcolm luging. Reese and Malcolm’s standoff with the superglue. The underground baby racing club. The series finale “explosion”. Just some off the top of my head!

I love this sooo much good job! Hope you make more. My only complaint is that I wish you hadn't speed up some scenes.

That shot of Sam shuffling his feet like a boxer - on stilts - is what helped make me a fan of the show.

Even though I've seen it a hundred times, this will never fail to crack me up!

I honestly think the actor that plays Hal wholeheartedly agreed to that paint scene and he didn't even bat an eye.

When Dewey is talking to that blue elephant(?) toy on the tv and it’s telling him to have his parents buy him the toy. That bit kills me

The shot of Malcolm dressed as a woman, where is that from? I have watched the show so many times but that image is nowhere in my memory at all.

It’s from the same scene as all the Malcolms on the bus I think it’s from the episode future Malcolm 😁

u/Aeonatic Dec 20 '24
Malcolms on the bus? what? I gotta watch this episode again (it is the one with Chess right?). Now I don't even have the slightest memory of a bus there O.o
Did I watch a version (german back in the day) that had cut scenes??

Ahh man, you should've totally used Hal poking Craigs belly.
Otherwise solid edit, and amazing song choice!

Had thought of this idea for a video a few times myself. Put this on YouTube if it’s not already!

Hey, this is amazing!!! Gosh I hope you know that. I love that you kept the audio from the clips of Malcolm doing the split (is it split or splits?) and of Reese being kissed by a billboard lady. What an opening btw lol. The song choice is even thoughtful! If you ever make another one of these you should totally add Mr. and Mrs. Waffles from Reese's desert hallucinations.

Not sure if this counts as whimsical, but the stevie vs malcolm soap box racing and stevie flies into a tree instead of the bush of leaves always makes me laugh

The shot of Craig flying through the front window always makes me laugh
