Ones that come to mind for me are Telephone by Lady Gaga and Money by Cardi B
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.
Sick! Amazing that there’s music videos and movies like this out there. The music is awesome as well. Thank you both for sharing!
I love me a movie that can carry itself through aesthetics alone!
Both are good choices. Take On Me would be an iconic 80’s movie and Turbo Killer would be B-movie gold.
Beastie Boys - Sabotage
Is this classical music?
This is precisely what I came in here to say.
Well, Tunak Tunak Tun of course.
Daft punk discovery series of music videos.
Interstella555 ?
Yep, and one more time, and digital love and…
Foo Fighters - Everlong
Alternatively: Foo Fighters - Lear to Fly
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
Meatloaf - I would do anything for love
But unfortunately they won’t do that
Learn to fly, foo fighters
Within, daft punk
Tanha Dil, Shaan
Rooster, Alice in Chains
It’s cheating since it’s already been done, but Edgar Wright expanded Mint Royale - Blue Song into Baby Driver.
Huh, TIL! I very much enjoyed Baby Driver.
Just for the giggles, Turn down for what.
Radioactive by Imagine Dragons. Ya know, the one with the underground fight club with little stuffed animal guys? That would make an awesome movie
Aphex Twin - Come To Daddy. I felt even the directors cut was a bit rushed and left several unresolved themes.
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.
Does WAP count?
I’d absolutely go see that movie that’s a fantastic music video lol
Nickelback - Savin’ Me.
