WORST VIDEOS OF 2005
Okay, let's flip the switch. For space reasons, let's talk about the worst shit imaginable in this post..
I would agree, for our purposes, that Björk "Where Is the Line?" is the worst of the year. But absolutely there are a ton of shitty videos (worse than Bjork) released every week.
Yes, this is where you're going to get your feelings hurt.

I love this video from the "Lara Croft : Cradle of Life" soundtrack. I have no clue who directed it, but it's a kick ass job.
BEST OF 2005
The year isn't over yet, but since we all go on mental vacation later in December, let's fight over what was great about 2005, and why this year was really, really bad for music videos. Face it: it sucked!
I nominate Beck "E-Pro" (also at here, here) as the best video this year.

Hey Antville crew. Question. I was watching Glazer's "Rabbit In Your Headlights" and analyzing that last shot. I have some ideas how he did it but I figure one of you knows exactly...Somebody drop your knowledge.

I heard this song on the radio the other day. The video's not great, but I'd be interested to hear what people have to say about the band. Is it just a huge Joy Division ripoff? Are they doing it on purpose? What's going on here?
For a point of reference here's a review I read online about the band... the reviewer mentions some interesting ideas.
I also like that the reviewer talks about simulacrum.
