well, you can say south park "beat them to the punch" too, but there\'s something to be said about execution. the video you posted is essentially a slide show and a list of references. wow. weezer actually incorporated all of these things into their video, which i think is fantastic. original idea? no. but executed terrifically? definitely.
here\'s another prime example of the same thing:
this video was posted to youtube on 08/31/06; almost 10 months before My New Haircut was posted. the difference? this has 43,000 views. MNH has 15 million plus. why? execution.
