House S2 vid - Vertigo - by [livejournal.com profile] bradcpu

[livejournal.com profile] bop_radar recced this, and I'm reccing it in turn because it is a phenomenally awesome vid. Even if you don't watch House. ESPECIALLY if you don't watch House, because then you won't pick up on how this is almost constructed-reality in the way it picks the edgy, creepy footage and turns the show into something that...it is, but only for brief moments. This is triple-concentrated disturbing!House. It kind of makes take to witness all the gods look like something that could actually happen in canon!



me: it is a bizarre vid
but SO COOL
it has very little point

Ji: it does make house look very exciting

me: much more exciting than it actually is!
like, if I saw that vid, I would think that this was probably a show about...a hospital, but also...maybe crime?

Ji: probably crime
and bullets
matrix bullets

me: maybe an underground drugrunning cabal
hospital

Ji: ... BEST HOSPITAL EVER

me: TOTALLY
Cuddy: *smokes cigars*
*has people killed*

Ji: CAN WE PLEASE HAVE THAT SHOW
chase could not be in the mafia
he would die.

me: he could be the undercover journalist

Ji: who dies.

me: and cameron would be the mob whore
who seduces him
and kills him

Ji: she would be full of cold blood.

me: foreman = scary hitman
House = crime lord who is also addicted to the drugs he sells. obv.

Ji: wilson?

me: keeping the family secrets, but reluctantly
kind of wants to get out of it but is TOO GOOD and KNOWS TOO MUCH

Ji: house/the sopranos?

me: cuddy would totally have his ass deleted if he tried anything
I think it fits the video perfectly, myself

Ji: yes

me: this is like some kind of creepy drug overdose.

Ji: yes...

Me: it's certainly a very different view of the show...
it's a show about drugs and violence and death and horror. ?!?

And the mafia! I like that version. I think Cameron's already half-full of cold blood, so it wouldn't be that big a jump for her. She just creeps me out lately.

But Cuddy with the cigars and the hit list. That would be SO AWESOME.

Hee! So true. I'm glad to see the love for Brad's vid being spread around. He's got a real flair for the nightmarish.

Just wanted to say that I had a very good (nigh painful) guffaw at your conversation about the vid. Heh.

(And thanks for the rec.)

Fyi, the vid is meant to show House discovering that he's the "bad guy" - the deranged cop with the gun, the "rapist," etc. - that he has that effect on those around him.
