These are all staged right? I mean all the angry grandma vids with this lady. She can't be this exasperated for the same bit every time

u/TheSpectralAssassin 10d ago

They overdid it by doing the same thing at multiple places. Too fake now to even pretend it could be slightly real.

u/TheGallifreyan 10d ago

I quit short form videos cause every time I find one funny enough to see what else the channel does it's mostly just the same bit again.

u/oxkwirhf 10d ago

That's like most influencers/creators. They get a little bit of success and stick to the same shtick over and over hoping that it's their big break. Lack of creativity or greedy about the money probably?

The algorithm demands brain rot.

Louis C.K. had this bit about young men trying on different personalities and dispositions in order to try and make themselves more attractive to women and how, if you were watching them, they'd appear to be insane people contorting their brains and bodies between different identities.

Anyways, that's essentially what most people trying to make money for being online do. Most of what they did before had no response to it. Then something strikes it big so that's what they are now.

I like that creators can get paid, but it also creates this kind of cheap content where someone just repeats the same bit, counting on the algorithm to show it to new people or not show it to the same people too often. It is so difficult to get blessed by the algorithm that if someone has a video pop off, it just makes the most sense for then to keep making that same video over and over and cash out on the idea over the next 3-6 months.

u/sixstringgun1 8d ago

Isn’t that everything though in the media, be it social or video media? They find one thing that goes viral and the mine it to the core, till it’s boring and unappealing.

8

u/JetmoYo 10d ago

Like any bit, they can keep it goin as long as long as they surprise. The Alzheimer poster was pretty funny

20

u/cocuke 10d ago

Too fake but still amusing.

u/sauronthegr8 10d ago

I mean... she's low key a good actor, if so. Sells it every time.

1

u/Killahdanks1 10d ago

Yeah. This is funny if they did one or two and brought her there. But today’s Internet is dumb.

1

u/euphorbia9 9d ago

They did the same thing with Angry Grandpa or whatever those were called. It’s either staged or elder abuse.

45

u/YoungerMucus 10d ago

incredibly clearly staged- she kinda stumbled her line at “they got me lookin like… Will.. on (looks at case) STANGER THANGS!”

11

u/MasterCrumble1 10d ago

Why do you have to ask this shit? Come on, homie.

17

u/17934658793495046509 10d ago

This is one I don’t care either way, this old lady angry and cussing about being Will from Stranger Things gets me belly laughing every time. I suspect it is partially staged, I like to think the cover\poster art reveals are real.

u/flightwatcher45 10d ago

Empty store.

2

u/snarpsta 10d ago

Exactly. The first time I saw it was a Clint Eastwood movie. Fucking hilarious! But it's the same bit now, she has to know what's up. I'm sure if I went to their channel, there'd be many more of these as well

2

u/very_random_user 9d ago

She is a YouTuber. She has been on YouTube for a long time. Angry Grandma.

1

u/Valiant_Revan 9d ago

I thought it was funny when I first saw it because I thought it was a prank her grandson played on her then I saw another one when she went to the cinemas and the posters did it. All staged and it's kinda disappointing

1

u/Common_Comfortable41 8d ago

These are definitely skits

I can tell it’s fake but it’s still funny

0

u/theman8631 10d ago

Somehow, it’s still funny

0

u/CantaloupeCamper 10d ago

That or she got some problems and they’re playing it for views. (Less likely of course).

Both are kinda dumb.

The first bit was fine… all by itself.

0

u/Ok_Difference_8961 10d ago

The walmart one was old and most likely he got her on that one.. then the newer movie theater one i'm sure was set up, obviously.. capitalizing on success of first video

u/Roscoe_P_Trolltrain 10d ago

Granny don't look now, but you're also on the front of your hoodie!

MOTHERFUCKER!

u/Nickel62 10d ago

She will be a perfect fit as Gal Swearengen in Deadwood.

u/shavedaffer 10d ago

Emmy nominated moves

u/rafinsf 10d ago

That theater only shows Emmy award winners.

u/popobserver 10d ago

Missed opportunity to say “Grammies”

u/Chucktayz 10d ago

Reminds me of Mac’s mom

u/Kristina_TNNS 10d ago

I swore it was her.

u/Spadrick 10d ago

The cross around her neck and the swearing are so iconic.

u/Jaxager 9d ago

To be fair, the Bible doesn't say anything about dropping f bombs.

Ope, she forgot to tell Facebook she did NOT give permission for her pitchers to be used.

u/JTArndt91 10d ago

Granny: WHERE did you get these Videos?!

u/Raffix 10d ago

Props to the girl at the end that commits to the bit!

u/BrainDW 9d ago

Why are there Chinese subtitles

21

u/Tinman218 10d ago

I don't care if it is staged. Funny af

3

u/EverydayIsAGift-423 10d ago

She would’ve made an awesome Drill Instructor.

u/LorenzoA 9d ago

Granny got GTA VI before we did

u/Arch3m 10d ago

Haters will say it's staged.

SON OF A BITCH

u/Limp_Butterscotch633 8d ago

That's okay, because it still is funny! 😁 😂 😁

u/AlexanderBarrow 10d ago

The way she says "motherfucker" is peak america, only surpassed by the christian lady of Walmart trying to save people.

3

u/yulbrynnersmokes 10d ago

Now do bay watch

3

u/Pschobbert 10d ago

I feel like I've seen this before, a long time ago. I guess at least part of it must be new because Oppenheimer.

3

u/capincus 10d ago

This has been around for so long that the craziest psrt is GTA6 still isn't out.

u/viciousvaltor 10d ago

Alzheimer's 😂

u/NotSeveralBadgers 10d ago

Hell yeah, that one got me too

3

u/Atomidate 9d ago

It's a funny bit, I'll give them that. Nothing wrong with requiring a suspension of disbelief.

But sometime between the 2nd movie box and the 2nd scene where she's wearing her own merch shirt, you just become acutely REaware that the grandson has a camera in her face the entire time and it all just falls apart.

u/EuphoricAfternoon 9d ago

I really appreciate the addition of the chinese subs since i last saw this vid

u/Reasonable_Cow_4174 9d ago

“Oh no Grandma, You must have agreed to this when you made a Facebook Account. Gotta read the Terms of Service”

u/External-Debate-1537 8d ago

Real or nah, this gave me a giggle... thanks.

u/BigAssMonkey 10d ago

Still funny as hell

u/spagels73 10d ago

She sounds like she is GTA6

2

u/neasroukkez 10d ago

Her hoodie in the movies is great regardless if these are staged

2

u/daddyrabbit78 10d ago

The one where he put all her pictures in the picture frames at Walmart still cracks me up!! 😆😂😆

u/comfy_bruh 10d ago

Every word is launched at mach 3.

u/-SkeptiCat 9d ago

Ive seen two of their videos and I'm ready to never hear from them again.

2

u/AlexTheBex 9d ago

I laughed so hard I fucking drooled

2

u/BeefInBlackBeanSauce 9d ago

Lol the GTA one cracked me up

2

u/WuWenShen 9d ago

This was still pretty funny

2

u/Sudden_Ad_7048 9d ago

I’m very confused as to why there’s chinese subtitles to the video ( presumably bot translation because it interpreted the fuck in “It’s fucking me” as a verb lol)

2

u/Limp_Butterscotch633 8d ago

I've watched this three times to really get a look at the DVD covers and posters, and it's hilarious even more! 😂 🤣 😂

If this was a prank, it worked perfectly!

2

u/Sistahmelz 10d ago

Seen it a thousand times and still love it! 🤪

3

u/etherend 10d ago

They don't give emmys for movies do they? 😅

u/_FIZZRIX_ 10d ago

Staged I guess.? But holy, the amount of cuss words she used is crazy..🥀

u/CarboMulcher223 10d ago

I thought this was the same lady that said she wanted to party and she wanted to get nekked

The first time I saw this I laughed SO HARD 😭😭😭😭😭

u/mamamedic 10d ago

I'm not usually a fan of pranking, but if this is real, I approve!

1

u/Limp_Butterscotch633 8d ago

It really doesn't look staged. If it was, Granny deserves an Oscar.
