This is so much bung!

Spike Jonze is back. First he wowed us with the trailer for his long-in-the-making adaptation of Where the Wild Things Are. Now MTV.com is reporting that he's directing a 10-15 minute short film with Kanye West. It apparently will not be a video for West's "See You In My Nightmares" track off 808's & Heartbreak, but the song will be featured. Further plot details and release information are being kept under wraps, but whatever it turns out to be, color me excited. Jonze has directed some of the most iconic music videos of the last two decades (Weezer's "Buddy Holly", Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice," and Bjork's "It's Oh So Quiet" immediately spring to mind.) And, as the eyebrow-raising video for "Flashing Lights" proved, the two share a bizarre sort of creative chemistry. Let's just hope there's no bondage in this one. source


I for one am very excited about this. Though I'm excited every time I see the words "Kanye" and "West", so there you go.

It's never going to work out between us.

You saying I'm not allowed to rap "Stronger" to you when we meet up this Wednesday? :(

Sorry for keeping you in limbo regarding times btw, I still haven't worked out what shift me mam's working.

Yes yes, Saturday is right. Dunno why I wrote Wednesday!
