It’s amazing that with budgets several orders of magnitude larger than these two efforts most video directors don’t manage anything nearly as compelling or affecting (I know, I’v been watching ‘The Hits’ on digital terestrial). Makes me want to buy a video camera, but for some reason I find video cameras inherently creepy and invasive (drunken middle aged men at weddings filming teenage girls on the dance floor &c.) so I’ll have to get over that first.

I watched Dig! on the plane the other day. What a bunch of spoilt bratty little cunts. The Dandy Whoreholes spent $500,000 on a crap video before they’d even shifted a unit.
Hmm. Better rant on about that in an extended post on my blog.
