Is this classical music?

[–] BurningRiver 1 points 10 months ago

This is precisely what I came in here to say.

Take On Me because the rotoscoping work is amazing, and now more movies need to embrace it.

  • closest movie: Cool World, which is basically an avant-garde music video of its own, with people transitioning between the 2D and 3D worlds

Turbo Killer because it has fast cars, violence, and Satanism

  • closest movie: Rock and Rule, set in a furry cyberpunk dystopia "where magic and technology collide", featuring glowing pentagons and shiny (not as fast) cars
  • second closest movie: Nicolas Cage's Mandy. Just wait for it...

Dude, Turbo Killer DID get turned into a movie!! Carpenter Brut & Seth Ickerman did a ~30 min followup to Turbo Killer called Blood Machines. The plot and acting are awful. But the aesthetics are really good.

[–] anarchost@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

I love me a movie that can carry itself through aesthetics alone!

[–] Ziomster44@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Sick! Amazing that there's music videos and movies like this out there. The music is awesome as well. Thank you both for sharing!

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 3 points 10 months ago

Both are good choices. Take On Me would be an iconic 80's movie and Turbo Killer would be B-movie gold.

[–] Saigonauticon@voltage.vn 11 points 10 months ago

Well, Tunak Tunak Tun of course.

Daft punk discovery series of music videos.

Yep, and one more time, and digital love and.....

[–] neidu2@feddit.nl 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Foo Fighters - Everlong

Alternatively: Foo Fighters - Lear to Fly

[–] ReeferPirate@lemy.lol 2 points 10 months ago

I'd take a new tenacious d movie any day. My vote is for learn to fly as well

Love both those songs, never saw the music video

[–] Marin_Rider@aussie.zone 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Meatloaf - I would do anything for love

[–] dutchkimble@lemy.lol 3 points 10 months ago

But unfortunately they won't do that

[–] PanaX@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

Either Tool - Sober

Or

DJ Shadow - Nobody Speak

[–] Kovukono@pawb.social 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's cheating since it's already been done, but Edgar Wright expanded Mint Royale - Blue Song into Baby Driver.

[–] janus2@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

Huh, TIL! I very much enjoyed Baby Driver.

[–] dutchkimble@lemy.lol 4 points 10 months ago

Learn to fly, foo fighters

Within, daft punk

Tanha Dil, Shaan

Rooster, Alice in Chains

[–] survivalmachine 3 points 10 months ago

Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy. I felt even the directors cut was a bit rushed and left several unresolved themes.

[–] Cwilliams 3 points 10 months ago

Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. Ya know, the one with the underground fight club with little stuffed animal guys? That would make an awesome movie

[–] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 10 months ago

Just for the giggles, Turn down for what.

[–] DirigibleProtein@aussie.zone 2 points 10 months ago

The Safety Dance. Excluding the origin story (of the song), what’s the story behind the video. It looks like some kind of fantasy medieval-esque festival.

[–] cousinofjah 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)
[–] janus2@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 months ago

I'd absolutely go see that movie that's a fantastic music video lol

[–] JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Nickelback - Savin' Me.

[–] JIMMERZ@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

β€œHow Long” by How to Destroy Angels. It’s a better post-apocalyptic story than most theatrical productions in just under 4 minutes.

[–] pip@slrpnk.net 1 points 10 months ago

Oh. My. Fucking. God. Eve's White Snow

[–] Flyspeck@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

SEVDALIZA - HUMAN.

Man, I'd really love if this universe were explored more.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 points 10 months ago

Fade - Kanye West

I am not a kanye fan. But loved this music video. Not that it would translate to a full movie, but still

[–] Genghis@monero.town 1 points 10 months ago

Watch this in a dark home theater
