Subtle stuff in videos

Post by weird_el »

I mentioned it in another thread, but the detail in Al's videos never ceases to amaze me. Even though I've seen them dozens of times there is always something new to notice.



Some recent details:

The monster in the window in Eat It

In UHF when Al is dressed like George Michael, the leather jacket he's wearing says UHF on the shoulder.

A Nirvana cheerleader has an Alfred E Newman tatoo.

One of the things they're smashing in Amish Paradise is a Slim Whitman album.



Anybody got any other things they didn't pick up on until after several viewings?

They were smashing things in the AP video? Man, I need to get a copy of The Videos. I don't remember that at all.

Well, "stomping" may be the better verb in this case.

I know of a SICK detail in the "You Don't Love Me Anymore" music video.



As a prank, people working with Al on the video put a condom on one of the golf clubs! :mad: And Al found out about it and decided never to work with "those people" again! I wish I knew who they were.



I just checked the video and this sick incident happens when the lines, "Oh if you don't mind me asking whats this poisonous cobra, doing in my underwear drawer?" are sung.



It makes me sick!!!

You can find a brief mention of it in the "Ask Al" archives for March 1999.

I watched this video for the first time since hearing it and that was disgusting. I can't believe someone would deliberately do that to an Al video.

I didn't notice until recently that in Eat It, the 2 people about to start fighting are holding a rubber chicken and eating utensils.

I love the fight scene in this. One guy has a spoon and the other guy has a fork. My money's on the guy with the fork.
