Judge Dredd Trailer
... the movie is good if you like hammy action sci fi, but there's elements in this movie that are really exceptional like the folding gun, the robot soldier, the cloaked cirty guards etc. Good touches indeed ... !

Blade Runner - Trailer
this is the original trailer to the film, before the excellent Vangelis score was added.
In my opinion there should only be two versions of this film. The original release, and a modified Director's Cut (that has a greater emphasis on the soundtrack) and does not include the Unicorn dream sequence.
[For fans of the movie:
The Blade Runner script and how the movie was ultimately put together is quite different from the book. In the book the Replicants try to trick Deckard into thinking he may be one of them. In the film there is no ambiguity here, Deckard is not a Replicant, there are no real clues that he might be. The only clue that might lead someone to thinking that Deckard may be something other than he appears is the confusing Unicorn dream sequence that was put into the first Director's Cut. People who are unaware of the Replicant/human debate will not have any idea as to the significance of the unicorn (it'll just be a weird happenstance). One other bone of contention is the number of Replicants mentioned at the start, which is 6. This is a scripting error. It should have been 5. The script was altered and the number was not. Otherwise there is NOTHING to indicate that Deckard might be anything other than a tired human being. The script works best with Deckard as a not so superhuman joe trying to deal with these offworld superbeings who are looking to prolong their lives. Trying to force a connection, with Deckard as one of the Replicants is very misguided. My apologies to Mr Scott ! You made an awesome film, try to accept what you have done !!]

Tropical Heat - Intro
I hope you all like the intro music. Season 1 of the show is cool. The writing was still good then. Season 1 = excellent, although it has been some time since I saw this ... !!

Daddy Cool - Bom Bom
I think I'll let the info on the tube posting speak for this one:
"Something weird happened to Daddy Cool after 'Eagle Rock' went to number one. They had another number one hit. "We put the dopiest song we could possibly think of on the B-side because we didn't want anyone to play anything but 'Eagle Rock'. So we put on a track which we weren't even gonna put on the album. It was called Bom Bom"

Spacehog - In the Meantime
Okay this is the music but no video clip. I wanted to post the video but all the ones online are missing the vital last part with the piano. It's essential to have that end part in it !!!!!!!
What's the deal with some posts, many radio channels and re-releases of top songs that edit out the "gimmicky" bits ? Unbelievable !
[UPDATE: The full music video clip has been found and posted !]
The Penguin Cafe Orchestra-Telephone and Rubber Band
... someone's used clips from the film Metropolis here. the song is sampled in Spacehog's In the Meantime ...

The Battle of Endor [Death Star] Uncut
absolutely awesome ... (except for the fairly lame destruction of that super Star Destroyer ! sorry !!)
The good thig about the space battle here is that the chaos is presented in an understandable way. You can see that the Rebels are trying to organise themselves throughout the fight ... there's better radio chatter and plot presentation here than in the newer films.

Dire Straits - Tunnel Of Love

The Platters - Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

The Killers - All These Things That I've Done
There's a version of the film clip here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJfc7SOgW_E that has the scenes in video in the "right" order ! It's less abstract than the promo release version. The signs held up by the ladies go from zero to seven in the original but do not follow. Very interesting to see the clip re-arranged ...

Flash Gordon- trailer
The movie here is a faithful "recreation" of the comic book style of the original Flash Gordon. Many people miss the point about the movie being a hammy tribute to the comic. It's one of those films you either very much like or very much dislike.

a fairly tripped out video ... to a great toe tapping tune ...
apparently the song is about coke, not the drinking sort !
Cyborg trailer

R.E.M. - Nightswimming
A brilliant song from REM- one of my all time favourites. Pity about the clip. It's the right idea, but in my opinion there are too many quick edits for what is a slow song. I would have liked to see the parts leading up to the appropriate swimming bit with a few more still shots or slow motion shots to give a more dreamy feel ...
Aerosmith - Janie's Got a Gun
supercool ... pity the clip quality could not have been better, but there ya go ...
