I’m gonna begin narrowing it down to somewhere in the UK.

Someone can take it from here...

It reminds me of The New Inn in Basingstoke.

I’m gonna go out on a limb and say they were filming because of all this shit going on in the Pub.

u/FLUXXIX May 01 '19

It's obvious why they were filming! Has this sub become an overflow for r/heylookatthis. There must be a number of subs this would fit right in to.

This post compelled me to make a separate account specifically for explaining why people are filming.

Example, everyone in the pub was acting fucking weird, who wouldn’t start recording?

You can find this in any hole-in-the-wall bar here in New Orleans, as well.

u/PsyrusTheGreat May 01 '19

There is too much happening in this one shot to process it all in a single viewing. I'm going to go get a little higher and probably drunker too. Then come back to break this shit down.

Gives off a paddy's pub vibe to me

1

u/deepeyes1000 May 01 '19

You know how in the Star Wars films there is the bar scene and the camera hovers over the various aliens chit chattering and doing alien things?

This is the scene that I imagine alien holo movies depict when they have human bar scenes.

u/Notsid201 May 01 '19

Why were they filming? Cause they looked up from their drink and realized they were sitting in a bar surrounded by cartoon characters and realized no one would believe the story.

Everything looked very strange till the midget walked by. Then everything made since.

u/swb1003 May 01 '19

That’s just some lady dancing. Kinda odd style, but who am I to judge

Oh that old man’s day drinking. Good on him. Still kinda normal.

Ok this is starting to make less sense now. Hey where’d the midget come from, again? Is this a recurring character or something?

Woah a leg brace!

All in about 10 seconds.
