The fact that he went to animation college just to capture the magic of the original dancing bear shows true dedication.

This became a million times funnier when I found out the creators spent 2 weeks reading Garfield strips to find one where he says "Thanks for Nothing"

nobody talks about it in the comments, but the reason Garfield starts doing the Colin bear dance, is because at the end of the video when the blue text pops up (0:40) it says on the 4th row "Thanks for everything" but in Colin's bear animation, it instead says "Thanks for nothing", which is what Garfield says in panel 3 at 0:16

The interpretation of life within this animation is truly beautiful, and is an amazing critique about how capitalism is ruining our society.

It's an older meme, but it checks out.

I like how they replaced the “thanks for nothing” from the bear video with “thanks for everything” to signify their reason for making this specific vid. The original bear video gave off the idea that the creator went to art school just to make a subpar video of a bear dancing, thanking his school for nothing in a comedic way. In the same vein, Jim Davis never learned to be all that funny after his years of making comics, only for his career to end with Garfield. Brilliant

For anyone confused, this is a reference to the YouTube video "Collin's Bear", where at the end of the Collin's Bear video, it says "Thanks for nothing".

I recognized that song right away...

It's the Wess dance song from Mother 3
