    What would be amazing is if REAL Brad joined the LPA and started a discussion with FAKE Brad. I think our minds would implode from the sheer amount of big words used :lol:.

    That's way, way too well-written to be Brad. With him, or the stuff I remember reading that I think was by him, it seems as though he just looks up every other word in a Thesaurus.

    So, in having writing skills that are superior to those of actual Brad, Minus failed pretty hard there.

    Seemed like the funnier option would be like... erm...








    maybe wait until OP saw the Minus post.

    Boy this thread got derailed so hard. :lol:

    Anyway, I'd actually agree with what Minus said. Honestly, just building off of that, I think Joe is one of their best choices in regards to making the video because he actually had a part in making the music. Who better to direct a music video for a band than someone who is actually in the band? Admittedly, the "Burning in the Skies" video was pretty much a mesh of techniques and concepts taken from the videos for "The Catalyst" and "Waiting for the End," but perhaps the reason for that is consistency's / theme's sake. I don't really see anything wrong with it, and so I would understand if the band didn't want to stop having Joe direct the videos.

    With that said, however, I've gotta say that I really wouldn't mind another director. While it might not seem like it, Mark Romanek's job on "Faint" was pretty damn good. I think getting a different director for a couple of videos, even in this album cycle, would be a little bit refreshing. It's cool to see Joe's visual take on the songs, but I always think it's interesting to see another person's take on a band's song.

    Honestly, whoever does the videos for Radiohead should try Linkin Park out for a while. Radiohead's videos are brilliant.

    Joe directs LP's videos?

    No wonder.. I'm enjoying the cryptic messages though.

    I disagree. I think my evaluation is fitting for the level of opinion being presented in this thread. Any more thoughts would be falsely deeming it to having merit than it deserves. Or at least in this case, the general point being presented in a manner that isn't trollish. Basically, Intent = okay. Execution = childish(e.g. insulting assumptions for no reason) = trollish.

    I elect a mod and/or admin change my username to Brad Delson, remove my profile picture, any subsequent posts after my post, and wait for the OP to come back.

    Let the guy who did the White Stripes' The Denial Twist and Fell In Love With A Girl videos do something for LP. Michel Gondry his name is. He's done stuff for the Chemical Brothers as well.
