Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

It's just some lovely (mascara laden) ladies pining for Howard.

Cosell, Johnson, Cunningham, The Duck - only time will tell.

Actually, Cunningham didnT want to do his trademark effects; he wanted to just film Madonna writhing around in the desert but she hired him specifically BECAUSE of his ability with effects and he was told to put some in.

i have them too but cunningham is my favorite...

Excellent post Farhad. I have the Director DVDs but there was no talk from Cunningham.

yeah, seriously. car companies have deep pockets, and often hire some fun directors. if you've seen his short film Flex, this is a pretty straight-forward commercial for Mr. Cunningham, yet its still seriously badass.

two things I just noticed 1)no driver 2)how'd it get out of the pool?

Robot designs, and directed by, Chris Cunningham.

many thank michie... i'd like to thank all the hardworking gold farmers of Beijing, who toiled day and night finding new Chris Cunningham videos and crazy Scandinavian/Japanese band promos that barely made it out of the queue... they're the real heroes here, not me.

“congrats on your Gold ! ”

This is a Mark Romanek music video. It is one of the music videos featured on “The Work of Director Mark Romanek” DVD.

What’s different about this video from the other Mark Romanek music videos is that Weezer and Romanek fought during the shoot. In all the other interviews on the DVD, bands gushed about what great friends they’d become with Romanek. Many of them put their trust in his vision and were very happy with the results.

Also, interesting is the little joke Romanek threw in: a florescent sign “weerez”, instead of “weezer.” The band later ended up doing t-shirts with the misspelling.

You have seen many of Romanek music videos. Wikipedia has a thorough list.

Koichiro Tsujikawa is my 'modern short film' hero, along with Michel Gondry and Chris Cunningham.

i like the children's theater part, and Karen O's frenetic energy is well displayed, but the rest could have been more cleverly executed (high standards for Spike's videos). i was tempted to post this back in the day, but i think i decided to instead post Cunningham's awesome video for 'Sheila is a Parasite' (which stalled in the queue, boohoo).

cheers bamdrew. in the playlist as of now
