I've been meaning to post this since I found out about this dvd weeks ago, and I got all excited after watching the Be Kind Rewind trailer. Before he turned out to be great with character work in his movies, Michel Gondry was slicking-up various musical artists with his unique visual genius. And I do mean genius. The combination of simple sight gags, sophisticated effects work, fun choreography and basic innovation will knock your socks off. I plan on owning this someday.It's a double-sided dvd and covers a lot of territory. Since not all the stuff has the same level of punch, I recommend starting with these, in this order:
Star Guitar by Chemical Brothers
Come Into My World by Kylie Minogue
Everlong by Foo Fighters
Let Forever Be by Chemical Brothers
By that point you should be hooked.

done and done!
And I mean done!
I always get the Chemical Brothers mixed up with Crystal Method.
I don't know about Kylie Monogue.. Isn't that hip hop? Sounds like music a bunny should listen to.
Kylie is techno-pop, and she's hot.
That reminds me of the time that JPX said:
"I'm with you, Jordan! I especially hate over-sized DVD boxes. I want the new Blade Runner set but I really don't need the HUGE suitcase it comes in - how the hell am I supposed to put that on my shelves?"
Now you've got me mad about oversized DVD boxes all over again! I mean, what's up with that? How the hell am I going to put that Blade Runner suitcase on my shelf? I'm choking on my own rage here!
The Kylie Minogue video is the best thing ever. I don't mean just the best video. The best thing.
