Oct 26 2006Tim Burton Makes "Bones"
Completely without the aid of Johnny Depp, Tim Burton has taken a stab at the music video field by directing the video for The Killers' newest single, "Bones." The loose story involves Devon Aoki and some dude ripping off their skin, thus revealing their bones, and carrying on with skeleton passion. I suppose I shouldn't be so surprised by the literal translation of the song since Edward Scissorhands was literally a guy with scissors for hands, Corpse Bride was literally about a corpse bride, and Planet of the Apes was literally a shitty remake of Planet of the Apes.
See it at MTV.com, but know you're a tool after you do.

This is the one track on the new album that I just can't get into.
Save Hedonistica.

I liked it better when Robbie Williams did it on rollerskates

Finally saw it, I can't believe how... unimaginative the video is. "It's called bones, so let's make them turn into bones" even down to the first few verses being acted out literally. Burton should stick to making movies.... original movies too not adaptations of remakes.
