The community behind the Red Dead Redemption series is one that is very inventive. Whether it is Red Dead Redemption 2 mods or artistic reinterpretations of movies, the fans of the franchise have used the games as a canvas for creativity. Recently, a Red Dead Redemption 2 musical medley has resurfaced that shows this very imagination.
A YouTuber that goes by J3unny uploaded an incredible medley of Red Dead Redemption 2 clips to the orchestrated song Can Can from Orpheus in the Underworld, a rather familiar tune to most who hear it. The video is certainly a far stretch from the recent Red Dead Redemption rap, but very much just as comical.
In the YouTube montage video, each punch, shot, slap, and dunk is edited to go along with the music; the result is wonderful. There are some moments of the video that are jarringly fast as each video clip may be breathtakingly quick to go along with the frantic music. Meanwhile, some, parts are jovial with Arthur and others from Red Dead Redemption 2 dancing along to the upbeat melody.
Although the video was originally uploaded shortly after the launch of the game, it was recently posted again on the official Red Dead Redemption Reddit page and it again blew up. It is hard not to smile at the editing of the video, along with the music, the footage, and the comical nature of the content as a whole.
Another very funny piece of content that took off from the community recently is a Red Dead Redemption 2 and Spirit movie "jump scene" recreation video. The 2002 animated film saw the horse and its rider leap over a gigantic canyon to cinematic effect, and someone saw an opportunity to recreate that moment in Red Dead Redemption 2. However, instead of landing the jump in stylish fashion, the player falls to their death comically. Again, the community has found plenty of ways to show off its wide range of artistic, comedic, and creative chops.
Rockstar Games' western adventure game is stunning and gorgeous, but it also provides silly and fun moments that the community is happy to take advantage of. There are some longstanding bugs in Red Dead Redemption 2 that can provide some laughs as well, even if they should probably be cleaned up at some point soon. In the case of J3unny's YouTube video that was uploaded back in 2018, it still holds up to this day, which is just as true for the game itself.
Red Dead Redemption 2Â is available now on PC, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
