Everything Chris Cunningham has done is genius, but this one is the blueprint for me. Dark, funny, and disturbing in the best way.

It’s hard to pick one Gondry moment, but ‘Come Into My World’ is a north star for me when I think about clever motion control execution. I love how Gondry can build a perfect concept and then casually break his own rules just because he can.

Romanek’s work always feels timeless and has a real swag to it.

The video stopped me in my tracks when I saw it for the first time. Solange’s detail for styling, color blocking, choreography, and architecture is unrivaled.

I admire how Kahlil Joseph expresses the Black experience, especially the darker tones, in a dreamy, surreal way that still feels honest and true. One of the greatest visual love letters to any city ever made.

I grew up on anime and I’m still inspired by world-building, character development, and sound design. There are a lot of great anime fights, but this one’s a favorite. Having context of the story makes the scene go harder but I still marvel at the fight choreography and animation style. Also, Killer Bee is one of the coldest Black anime characters ever.

If you can dodge traffic, you can dodge a ball.

“What a lovely day!” A masterclass in overstimulation. The buildup to the sandstorm chase leading into Nux watching the other War Boys get flung around by a sand tornado…. The score, the editing, the color, the sound—top 5.

A deep dive into the subculture of bike messengers. The part where Jesus describes making deliveries in the “devil’s building” kills me every time.
