Ana Matronic from Scissor Sisters was not amused:

He needs to lighten up.
A wild guess he is a Millennial? |
Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
Yeah, I mean I guess it could be insensitive, but it's hard to not appreciate that it's also objectively funny. Tough one on some level.
JB69, what's your take on the video if you don't mind me asking? |
Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
Dead or Alive are my favorite band of the 80's. I don't have any desire to watch the parody. My most prized vinyl set is the DOA one that has been OOP for quite a while and fetches more than $1,000 on the secondary market. I still have the mispressed vinyl disc that has side 1 of Elvis Presley at some concert that the plant fucked up.

Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
Is there an article that is supposed to go with it that explains the Wu Tang and kids thing that Ana references? I like the song and Paul Rudd, but I wouldn't call the video "funny". I appreciated their commitment to a shot-for-shot remake, and I certainly didn't see anything mean-spirited about it. I didn't get the sense that they were making fun of the song or Dead or Alive, but I'm also a straight guy, so...

Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
Or, and just hear me out on this, Rudd and Fallon were making fun of a crazy 80s video.

Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
I think Jimmy Fallon and Paul Rudd a few years ago recreating that '80s-era Styx music video is still their best effort:

Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
I forgot about that one :lol:

Re: Dead or Alive versus Paul Rudd and Jimmy Fallon
Ana Matronic sounds a little nutty. Lighten up, sweetheart. It was a loving parody.

Sorry, but it's a pretty big reach to somehow characterize a shot-for-shot remake of an iconic music video as homophobic.
