wonder how much they had to pay to get tim burton to direct it.

Shhhhhh!

Why does that girl look familiar to me?

EDIT: Oh yeah, Wasn't she in Fast and Furious 2?

based on listening to this one song, I find that brandon flower's claims that Sam's Town is the best record in 20 years is completely invalid.

i like this song, but the video....not so much.
okay, i get it: people turn into skeletons sometimes.
and yeah, knowing tim burton directed it made me expect something a little bit more.
but overall, decent.

oh yeah, and why does he need the sunglasses? really.

That video was great. Bones is one of my favorite songs off of Sam's Town.

Cannot stand The Killers's new record. Hot Fuss is much better. The video, however, I am very fond of. Like shes.a.ghost said, the video is much better than the song.

I thought the video was fantastic. But I also was expecting a little more from Tim Burton, so in a way I was let down. One of the better videos this year though.

2) The Killers are the shit

Sweet video.

Video was ok.

I dont even feel any of Burton's design in the thing. Thats what makes most of his work so interesting, the sense of design. None here. Disappointing me bc eveerytime i heard this video discussed it was "the new killers video, directed by tim burton" everytime! haha.

Not too fond of the new killers either.. its ok i guess.. average.

Well, he is making a music video... its not a movie. He showed people ripping thier skin off and become living skeletons... and it looked good. What more does he have to do to live up to your standards?

10/25/06, 01:39 PM
is that supposed to be taken seriously? because i laughed out loud about 4 times watching it. that being said, it was definitely pretty funny if that was an angle they were going for

This song seemed really boring to me...too repetitive. The video was alright I guess, nothing special.

Well yeah it def looked good. But Burton directed it, he didn't do the effects. Just seems kinda lame/unimaginative for such a director no?

Not a big fan of most of the songs off The Killers' new album, but this song is quite decent... I like the song more than the video. Bones? Kinda too literal/ Haha... cute video though. I guess.

I wasn't a big fan of this record either, but it's been growing on me for the past couple weeks. "Read My Mind" is a great song, and while there are a few total duds on the album, for the most part it's palatable. This video is great, however, and it makes a great song out of what would otherwise be a pretty boring one. The When You Were Young video came off a little pretentious in my opinion, and the song itself is a little overcooked.

I see what you are saying, but you are missing the point. He wasnt making a movie. He was making a music video... I'm sure their label didnt want it to be too weird or else the TRL audience might of rejected it, which they still might... who knows. I like the video.

Best record of the year. The only problem I see is one of the bonus songs should be a single instead of on the bonus disc. All the Pretty Faces would be huge!

kissbangkill
10/25/06, 02:29 PM
how so? His last 3 movies were outstanding.

corpse bride was an improvement.
charlie and the chocolate factory was a family movie joke. the river scene alone shows how burton could be losing his edge.
big fish.. i enjoyed it, but he's capable of better.

and now he's got his hands around sweeny todd. i pray to god he remembers that he's the man that made edward scissorhands and not the man who disgraced catcf while he's making this.

it was good. i liked it. i thought there would be more abstract stuff in it...knowing tim burton and all. slapping his name all over didn't make it anymore enticing to me. i thought the shots of the killers were kind of lame and tacky. but still pretty cool.

*crying stars*
10/25/06, 05:48 PM
anybody have a new link?

just because he's not your "cup of tea" doesn't mean he's overrated. it means you don't like him.
