THE GOOD OMENS ICEBERG EXPLAINED

due to popular demand, subtitles have been added! enjoy :)

i am on multiple levels but sometimes i forget just how insane the Good Omens fandom is and just how much we hate being happy

8:13 I think I recall Gaiman saying on his tumblr that "Crowley just happens to look like Scottish actor David Tennant" or something along those lines

12:13 i love that most of the signs have comic sans because it's easier for dyslexic people to read

In Michaels deffence : I`m in my 40s and I sometimes tend to remember things from Early 20`s as things from my teens.

THE GOOD OMENS FANDOM HAS NO IDEA WHAT HAPPINESS FEELS LIKE, MY DUDE. Your iceberg showing up on my tumblr had me almost throwing up laughing. I had to watch the video. Rewarding experience.

Did anybody else notice that the Bentley's license plate spells out CURTAIN in reverse ?

alot of people think that crowley is fallen Archangel Raphael

Crowley's name: he changed it from Crawly (moving like a worm) to Anthony J. Crowley. The J. us not just the random Jay (as for Homer Simpson) but more like a nod to British born SF/fantasy author Piers Anthony JACOB who wrote his "Intimations of Immortality" [title of a 1804 W. Wordwoth ode] stories in the 80's up to 2007 too: Elemental Forces as "job options" to be handed over to "normal humans" - the story arc sees Satan (once a devout christian monk) trying to replace the currant christian God for a better suited candidate who DOES something in this office. Starts out with Death ('83), Time ('84), Fate ('85), War ('86), Nature ('87), Satan ('88), God (1990) and Nox... (she is quite something in 2007). The 7 Sandman siblings (all their names starting with D) in Neil Gaiman's Graphic Novel (1989-96) take a similar spin on "reality": offices, that have to be filled with people, to make the world go round😂

I was introduced to Neil via Terry, and introduced to Terry via Douglas Adams .... if you want to know why the Good Omens movie script exists as it does ...go and look at anything written by Douglas Adams about the HHGTTG film ... it took more than 20 years to get something that was acceptable ...

I have some nerdy stuff about Lucifer. The name Lucifer is made up of parts of two Latin words: “lux” meaning light, and “ferre” or “fer” meaning to bring it it’s imperative form. This means that Lucifer literally means light bringer or bringer of light, and what do you know? - angels are/ were the bringers of light. Now, I have little knowledge about the Bible, but there’s something one can assume. Lucifer is/ was an angel who fell after doing stuff God didn’t like. Some theories suggest that Lucifer, once he fell, changed his name to be Satan. However, a Wikipedia article about the TV adaptation of Gaiman’s novel “Lucifer” states that Lucifer, the ruler of Hell, was the archangel Samael, who was thrown out of Heaven because of the rebellion.

I first read Good Omens in the early 1990s, not long after it came out, so I didnt have the imagery of the series influencing my interpretation of the novel. I always thought the capital city in Another Place was a reference to one of the circles of Hell. It's Too Late because if you are a human that's there you are eternally doomed. It's Too Late to repent

The hat and scarf advert: the contact person is Rob which is a reference to Rob Wilkins who was STP's assistant and is now head of his literary estate. The reference number at the end is GO 28.04, GO being Good Omens and 28.04 being STP's birthday. Underneath the advert is another for a lost book, The Colour of Magic, which is STP's first Discworld book. I'm fairly sure that the number 93 bus is also a reference but I'm not from London so I don't get it.

THE FACT THAT I KNEW ALL OF THEM! 😂😂😂

First of all, THANK YOU!! Thank you for all this research! This certainly was a LOT of work and i can just give you probs for that. o7 This video turned out amazing and i love it so much! The entirety was so entertaining and whatever on earth the 90’s movie script was hilarious!! I couldnt stop myself from laughing and cackling. I especially enjoyed how you explained the movie script. Phenomenal!! Wish you good day!

Thank you, excellent video! Plenty of intersting information I didn't knew. It's a must-see for every big fan like myself. Oh and please enable subtitles if possible. Makes it easier for those of us who don't have English as first language 😉

This is really well done and informative :) I'm wondering, however, if a deleted scene can be considered "canon content"? I don't have a strong answer either way, just that your video made me consider the question for the first time.

Me, who could explain every point on there, clicking on the video: mh, very interesting

I read the book three weeks ago, finishes Season 1 yesterday, know too much about Season 2 due to clips and compilations (and memes and meme compilations) on YouTube. I also knew a good 75-80% of these things and yes, I’m so ready for Season 3 (I think it was confirmed).

I think the tenth Doctor chose his face from Crowley. Maybe the doctor is a fan of Crowley.
