Explaining what's been up and answering questions!

I would love love love to see more behind the scenes!

Green Flagg 💚

glad you're taking care of your buddies, i do find myself curious though, is there a way to tell the story without releasing the footage. like audio over an animation perhaps? i mean even a dramatization could be super entertaining and funny.

Where is the second movie ? It’s been months since this update

It boggles my mind that the law is so strict on stuff you do, but meanwhile people like EDP openly talk about everything on a documentary and the police will probably never do anything about it

Brick by brick…you and your friends will win!!!!

But a rpist gets probation this world is jacked keep doing what your doing

Mad to think this video is out there but the Lego one is the one that blew up releasing this after the Lego vids is gonna blow everyone’s mind… as long as everyone is in the clear obviously

Definitely not worth it it they are looking at jail time

was one of these the lego videos? just subbed. was looking for the other movies and im glad I found this. you're a real one. take your time!

Take the time you need to get this done right, wait for the statute of limitations if you have to

shmeat reveal when

Broo this is so fucked up, I swear bro you aren’t mega famous cause you can not finish any series or movie fr fr😂

I want behind the scenes!

I’m new here. Was the video released? I’m not sure what topic it’s on

Please enable the "Auto-dubbed" feature on your channel on YouTube !! I’d like to share your videos with non-English speakers as well. (I’m curious how lawyers outside of the US react) ベン兄さん、応援してるね！

why not just post the video but just claim it is all ai lol. im sure there is some loophole you can figure out unless it is a scary group that doesn't care about the law.

blur faces

Hey Ben. I might be able to help you out with editing. Truth be told, I'm not a huge fan of the editing process. But I went through and watched your older posts today after subscribing to your Patreon and... I think I can be of assistance. I'm knowledgeable and capable, just need to have a reason before it's worth my efforts. You remind me of a younger me. I hope to see you overcome these obstacles, but I also want to see these videos you keep promising but seem to have run out of time for :P

,make a AI generate duplicate

You sacrifice so much for the "little guy", all the time. I want you to win every damn case! Go Ben

I don’t know what’s wrong with some of these people. You’ve clearly stated you’re waiting until you can legally post it. I am willing to wait because you will post it when you can. So don’t worry about the haters lol but you definitely need to start sleeping.

i know this is an old video but once it's all said in done, you'll never look down and regret not selling out your friends.

hey man, much love from austria, just keep doing you, u are making all the right decisions!

Anyone who says “fuck your friends” is a terrible person and I would say stop watching my videos if your someone who thinks that. You’re doing the rite thing. I want to be involved with this but I’m out in Jersey im pretty sure your out west. The work you do is important on a lot levels. Keep it dude. I’ll learn your editing process whatever (I have next to no experience, literally just a telecom class in high school). But I’ve been told im a pretty smart and creative guy and a hard worker lol. Just a thought… but yeah forget about the people who say none sense, the real ones know.

Is the legal stuff for the Lucifer Valentine videos or another topic?

Is the first Lego video Movie #3?

Whoever said you should just post it anyways should be f&@$in ashamed of themselves. Thats just nasty. Of course you should protect your friends!!

love your work!

Im super late to all this. Subbed to watch the lego vid. Is there a 2nd or 3rd part of the banksy video anywhere???? I dont want anyone to get locked up but if they're out there i wanna watch! Someone lmk please

Dude you're absolutely right to not post that video until it is %1000 safe to do so. Fuck anyone who is saying anything otherwise. That would ruin your friends lives forever and your career. The internet will always have these idiots that don't give two shits about anything but "Give me the content now!!!" When you are able to drop the video, it will speak for itself. Keep doing what you're doing and take care of yourself and the people helping you; the rest will follow when it's time.

hey man, it's one year later and the only reason I subscribed to your patreon. You could at least have put an addendum as a pinned comment that it is still not public/finished yet. That was predatory to make a few easy bucks.

Can't wait to piece together the timeline of how all of this lines up with the escape to Mexico.

Hey man, been following you on YT a few years. I want to support you guys more, can you guys make some more T shirts? I dream of a area 51 raid t shirt theme. And a cult themed one? Hobestly jist do a full t shirt line based on your video-themes. I want to collect them!

Yea bro fuck the haters telling you to release the video with no regards to your friends protect your friends and yourself at all cost. Everything else comes secondary.

You are a Hero brother. Watch one video on Youtube. You deserve all the good coming your way. Respect

It’s so honorable that you’re above taking the easy route to become huge and instead just perfecting your craft, you are more talented and committed than anyone I’ve ever seen

friends safety matters most. take your time and we'll be here when the vids drop. :D people are just always excited for more because your content is so fire. this whole arc of you becoming an artist and doing stunts is amazing. looking forward to seeing the journey unfold :D

your friends matter a lot. Take your time on everything here. you're doing great but figure it out and we will see. The real fans trust you.

Don't get too burnt out your videos are always great sounds like you're getting sick of yourself a little bit

You do so much crazy shit I haven't seen anyone else do before and the new Lego series feels like you're really starting to up your level in quality. Not to dog on your old stuff, it just feels like a more cohesive story and more thought out in the way its edited and shown it us. Never switch up on your day ones and don't let the bastards grind you down!

Real ones get it Ben!

Keep at it man! I'm to old for this kind of stuff but amazing to see people like you kicking ass.

No that's not true at all! You don't have to get crazier and crazier Ben! Not at all. They just have to be as good! 👍

Do what you do Ben! I'm here for it all. Whether it's a year until you upload, we will all be clicking to see what you have for us next. Be safe and be smart 🙏

I discovered you a few days ago, and I've been binge watching your content since. I never paid for a patreon before, but your videos are the craziest i have ever seen and it's totally worth it. You've done so much already, and everything is so cool. I wouldn't mind waiting for as long as needed man, friends & safety come first and given the mind-blowing quality of your videos, I honestly don't mind waiting long for such top tier quality content and I want to support it, and support you. Keep up the good work & the golden attitude man. Total respect

Hi Ben, I have been away for a while.What have I missed aboout danny going to indonesia? who is coming after him and what film are we talking about regards that, lucifer valentine or are you still talking about the police coming after him if you show the film?

I think you should still try an interview Hank Skinny from the LV flicks. I think a lot of your fans would really dig it. You could also find Brad from Black Metal Vains through his mom's obituary.

Don’t post episode 2 until you have guaranteed legal protections for your friends. Hang in there! The real supporters understand.

Will we get lucifer video part2? Or is it 'finished'?

Stairs, scarier than Mckamey Manor

Ben love your videos bro my daughters mother showed me them around the mckamey manor time hope everything gets worked out for you would rather not even see the video if your friends can get in trouble but knowing your ways you will work something out lol in the craziest way much love ❤️🙏

If it means you sacrifice your friendships do not do Ben. It's hard enough to find one person you can count on so leave it. I got kicked somehow so I'm resubscribed now!

New patreon subscriber here, and I've been really enjoying putting these on in the background! Great work Ben :) Can't wait for your next movie man

Put the video out as a cartoon

Legal stuff takes time. Also lawyers love to play the long game. Also nobody is forced to subscribe to you on Patreon. They easily can come back when you posted the videos. Looking forward to the them. Keep up the entertaining work.

Gaslighting your paying audience because you made bad decisions. You all of a sudden have people in trouble although this was recorded over the past year? Nothing is making sense.

Screw everyone who wants you to post it!! Just make another new video that with actors that shows how the original video is or something

So did you actually find Banksy?

Did you guys really go to bohemian grove?

Personally I rather watch your stuff as you’ve been doing it over the years. Not necessary for you to feel that you have to push it more and more and potentially risk the freedom of you and your friends or even physical harm. Also fully understand the way of thought and drive behind pushing things to another level. Looking forward for what’s to come. Hade bra!

I love your videos, Ben! Take as much time as you need and stay safe you’re brave for doing stuff no one else is doing. Seriously appreciate what you do.

Honestly idk who these people are saying all you care about is going viral… weirdos icl

what if someone steals it from you and releases it

Watching your videos fills me with so much inspiration. I mean, this is top tier pioneering work. Coupled with the fact that you have the meaning sorted and at the same time decided not to sell out, that combination is just so rare. I aspire to the same level of integrity, confidence and persistence you have. I also enjoy adventures & doing crazy stuff but if I did not see your videos, I think I could not have imagined that you could take it this far and give it meaning at the same time. Which kind of makes me feel bad that not stumbling across your videos I would likely never have realized this, but at the same time I am very grateful, because now I can act on this and I am already reconsidering some of my life options. I think would like to do something similar to what you are doing in the future, how / where would you advise somebody to start? (Question for the next video)

Take your time, you do not owe anything to those people who complain about the 2nd movie. If they care about regularly being served content on a golden plate, they should just go watch Netflix. But even more preferable would be if they touched grass.

Would you consider releasing movies 3 and 4 before 2?

Upload when you're ready <3

I respect you protecting your friends, honestly your videos are some of the most entertaining I’ve seen on youtube. Can’t wait for the other movies, let me know if you need a welder on the team 😂🤙🏼

Also, I wish we knew the organization. They know you are doing something, so they know who they are. You could build crazy hype letting us know

I guess the thing i would be careful about is that you could give investigators enough information to justify getting a search warrant to get the footage

"I actually think nothing illegal happens in the third movie." Lolol classic Ben.

This is why you are the only YTr i ever supported on Patreon. You can tell you are a good person not like these other pos online that will do anything for fame. If your friends get in trouble by release of the footage then of course you don't. What i will say is that seems odd that, that would be a thing. Because either they have the evidence to prosecute or they don't. They could presumably subpoena the footage if that's truly the only thing holding back charges so I guess that may be why you are getting so many questions. The dynamic just doesn't make much sense. But obviously, you can't put your friends freedom on the line for your personal gain. That makes you a bad person.

I don’t mind waiting for videos… it’s like a fun lil treat when I get the notification that you uploaded again! Worth the wait for sure. Keep fighting the good fight!

Wait what’s going on with the Lucifer valentine stuff???

Bens the actual goat of content lol. Love you buddy!!!

I joined your patreon to genuinely support the work that you do. I haven't felt impatient personally about the other videos not coming out. Keep up the great work and hope your foot feels better!

I still don't get the finding Banksy bit?

I would love to know more about your creative process (ty for the update also)

Have you seen russ mckameu facebook recently lol

We know you’re grinding man. Keep up the great work and we will wait to see the awesomeness

Thanks for the update! Excited to see what you have cooking!!

We will wait!

I would like to see more behind the scenes video from the first movie. I also think you should post the rest of the commentary for part 1.

If you don't put the protection of your friends first then you won't have any to make future projects with. I'd rather wait a while longer to know you are all safe if needed to ensure you get more projects out.

I'm glad you're a good friend. Prison is no joke.

Patiently waiting, these vids are by far the knarliest YouTube vids I’ve seen. If someone wants to get on you for not posting yet, let them get in a 10 day stand off with the police and film it themselves.

And please post on YouTube in December because YouTube ad sense is crazy in December

You rock! Thanks for being Awesome! 🍭💕

Ben, take your time and release videos when everything is clear! I'll give you my 5 dollars a month as long as I can afford it. I really support your dream dude I trust your process. If you're wondering what to post on patreon if you can do a BTS a month or post unedited footage every now and again that would be perfect !

Just want to say I love the commentary videos. Also I think you underestimate what the silent majority thinks, we love to get those little unprepared updates just to know you are okay. Having this kind of 20min unprepared video update could be cool once a week if its not slowing you down. Power to you and your friends

I hope you’re making this behind the scenes drama into a video so that it’s not all in vain

The silent majority believe you and love you! You're the only YouTuber who I know who clickbaits and then always delivers. Consistent "no way that's possible" and then it's real! We love you Ben, hope you recover quickly!

I’ve not watched this yet, but if it’s an apology for a delay, why didn’t you just explain it 2 months ago when people were asking for an update to movie 2? You didn’t need to wait until now to say it’s not coming yet

Take your time, I trust your process & your timing, and am happy to contribute a couple dollars a month to support it as it is 🤍. And am excited for everything that’s to come

Thanks for the update dude. Was literally thinking earlier today that you got arrested or something happened to you since you’ve been so quiet. Glad you’re out there on the grind still. I subscribed to your Patreon because you don’t just make content. You make legit badass documentaries that most people wouldn’t dare even think about. I’m glad to hear that you’re staying true to that. Don’t let the haters get you down or dictate your next move. I personably think releasing extra footage after each movie would be great for the Patreon. I’m thinking something like the post-credits stuff from the Jackass or CKY movies. As you said, you shoot a ton of footage and only a select few minutes make it the cut. Plenty of stuff left for Patreon.

I’m not worried about a few dollars a month to support you. It is frustrating that you are getting what seems like backlash over a few dollars a month. Thank you for taking the time to reiterate the current status of the videos. Although it seems redundant explaining it, it it helpful to know where your are at. I enjoy the vids you make and I love the direction you are going with them.

I may be in the minority but I enjoy these little rambling videos, id love to see more of them any time you have any sort of update. even if it's only a coupler minutes long. Maybe a little longer videos for Q/A's!

The behind the scenes and the commentaries are both awesome! I would love to see more if you have the time to do them You're really good at keeping your projects secret. Given all the people you work with, do you ever worry about someone leaking info on what you're doing? And have you seen any interesting speculations from people on what any of your upcoming videos might be about?

Can you clarify that you're not double dipping, by promising that we'll get access to the second movie here and then switching to the production company that you found? I doubt that's what you have in mind, but I would like it to be clearer.

Protecting your friends is the exact right move, thank you for keeping us updated along the way though!

Sorry that people are pressuring you to do things you aren’t cool with. Protecting your friends is the right move. On a side note, Can you give clues as to what the movies are about? I’m excited for all the other parts. Keep grinding brother !

Mad respect for protecting your friends. Most of us don’t mind to wait. Your art is always worth it 💗

Your honorable motivations and dedication are what make these videos top tier. People will always suck, but the people you care about these videos reaching will be here waiting patiently

Hire me as an editor

Take all the time you need, I have a lot of respect for you protecting your friends—I don’t think many in your situation would have the compassion that you’ve shown. I think you’ve proven by now that you don’t care about the money and I know everything will be worth the wait, even if it takes another year and a half.

Commenting pre-watch but I appreciate you for continuing to make art 🙌🏻❣️

Man I love ur commitment for ur passion and it shows in quality. With that ur fans just want more u, bts, joking with ur friends on a podcast. Actor come out with a film not that often but half of them r doing podcasts and tik tok now.

My only concern has been hoping you're all good, bro. I fully get the precautions you have to take. I'm excited for everything.

i understand the friends being in trouble but that’s just the second one

my thing is why can’t you release the other videos

Didn't know they were facing 20. Could u tell what charges that they are potentially facing.?

Respectable of you to think about the outcome for not only yourself brother just take the right steps to get it legally posted that way these bastards can’t put you or anyone in your group in jail.

Based on what I’ve seen from you up to now I have complete faith you’ll release what you can when you can
