Reviews Customer Reviews for The Greatest Hits Why Make Videos Very cool. Always coming back for replays. Rating: I keep finding myself putting this DVD back in over and over just to watch one of the funny and inspiring videos in this collection. Granted, several of them aren't worth the time wasted to watch to begin with (just to hear the music, which was the initial purpose of his videos IIRC), but several of them are just too good to watch once. Ones that come to mind are Ya Mama (for a GREAT laugh every time), Weapon of Choice, Demons, and Slash Dot Dash (need a wake up call?). Each are very well made and go with the music beautifully. I constantly come back to these videos more than ANY OTHER VIDEO I've ever seen.
Others, like Praise You, The Joker, Gangster Trippin', and borderline "That Old Pair of Jeans" took a great song and glued an awkward, goofy music "video" onto it. Praise You was almost embarassing. The Joker... well, contest winner, okay, that's acceptable. But Gangster Trippin'? Watch it once, okay, that's all you need. "That old pair of jeans" is a great song with great juggling (AMAZING, I might add), but what's the association?
Hey, there's more on this DVD than just the videos though. There's a documentary on the videos, which is an entertaining insight into the making of the videos, as well as a sneak peek into what Fatboy Slim does for a living - putting on HUGE shows. Quite the awesome sight for those of us not lucky enough to be able to see one in person. ;-)
It's still a great DVD despite its shortcomings. If you get the "Greatest Hits: Why Try Harder?" CD, get this DVD. And vice versa. They go great together!
