The Good...The Bad...The Beautiful #45

THE GOOD:



The sexual tension on the stage feels like overcooked pasta. I do love the fact that Hudson can't get through the term "amyl nitrate." No idea why.

Bad and Beautiful on the flip side...



THE BAD:



C'mon. If you're at a wedding and Antibalas is the band, you've got to show some more love on the dancefloor. Their "I-absolutely-do-not-want-to-be-here-playing-this-honky-song" attitude makes this video. Seriously, these guys put out tremendous political activist funk music, and here they are blowing out a cover of Van Halen's "Jump."

THE BEAUTIFUL:



In one minute, David Fincher tells a story that many other directors could never do in 3 hours. I realize it's a commercial for Nike, but they've definitely transcended the concept of "ad" and moved it (at least partially) toward the idea of art.
