The Raconteurs – Broken Boy Soldier
(Floria Sigismondi)

RACONTEURS

Alright, so apparently NOBODY is through with stop motion. I mean if the Raconteurs are pimping it in their videos, I guess one can quit asking for a break from the technique. Its a shame though, this song is my most favorite on the album and by far one of the most badass songs I’ve heard in a long while. Speaking of which, I call dibs on the track for when I make my movie and have a character be introduced in slow-mo with this song blaring throughout.

As for the broken toy soldier in the vid, I feel no remorse for his situation. I’ve been sick the past few days (and I never get sick) and basically what he does in the video is what I’ve been doing when I wake up each day for work/school. Thank god that bird always seems to know when to drop off my arm, fools like clockwork. Although, that armadillo, gets me everytime.

Enjoy what the ‘teurs have given us today kids, for who knows what tomorrow shall bring us..

    So, stop motion is here to stay. I guess it goes along with reality television it could be good, sometimes. Remorse, what’s that?
