saw it this morning before work
is it actually directed/made by Wes Anderson?
or is someone getting away with TOTALLY ripping him off?
even the titles were in the same font he uses.

it's directed by dean learner
i don't think it's ripping it off, it was deliberately referencing it. vampire weekend are always being called wes anderson-esque
his real name is richard ayoade
Haha
I love it when people refer to him as Dean Learner. Bring back Darkplace!!
I met him once and called him Dean Learner
and he said "Err that's not my name"
i can imagine it might be a bit annoying
how can music
be wes anderson-esque?
think they're
cleverer than they are? liked far too much for no obvious reason?
oh olololol
stupid wes anderson
what a stupid man for writing and directing really nice easy to watch films.
Isn't it by the dude from IT Crowd, Boosh etc?
Yes.
And Darkplace.
The video, imo, is pretty poo
but, I just lurve the song. My fav of the year so far!
It was interesting I thought.
Let me just say that Vampire Weekend are the most charmingly brilliant band ever, too.
^5
Walcot & M79 > most of the album
great song, boring video, even if it was in one take. still boring.
it was srsly richard ayoade from barley/boosh/it crowd?!
that guy watches too much anderson
and that's coming from a guy that watches too much anderson.
/
darkplace, obvz his best performance
take a look at noah and the whale videos
all anderson rips offs,
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRX5kH6IrkY
my arse is grass
and the superintendant has a lawnmower
^
like knockers in a wind tunnel
Ayoade does quite a few videos
Arctics, SFA and Last Shadow Puppets that I know of.
Music videos are always referencing films
and imitating their style.
I like that.
Also:
the singer from Vampire Weekend has a great walk.
And a great suit
I think I may have a slight man crush on him, worryingly.
Why worryingly?
has wes anderson
made any music videos?
I really like the video and the noah and the whale one and it'd be cool to see what his looked like.
