The Best Film Clip We Ever Saw

by thephillyjays on 26 July, 2010

in News

I don’t know if you remember, but before we went to England we released “I Don’t Want To Party (Party)” as a single. And we asked YOU to make a film clip for it. Well, we’ve watched all the clips that you made over and over and over (especially on the flight home!) and we’ve decided which one is our favourite.

So big ups to James Cobb from Brisbane, who is the mastermind behind this work of genius:

For winning the competition, we’re going to be playing at James’ house party this Friday night. So if you’re friends with him, I’d be hitting him up RIGHT NOW for an invite! We’ll take heaps of photos and some video footage too (hopefully!) so you won’t miss out on the action.

There were some other great entries as well. This first one by Lachlan and Denham Sadler was simple, but so brilliant:

I’m not sure if the next one breaches any kind of copyright laws, but if it does, Etienne seems to be a smooth enough talker to get out of it:

This last one obviously took a LOT of time and effort. More than we thought anyone would go to for the competition:

So did we make the right decision? Leave a comment and let us know which one you thought should have won. Or let us know that you agreed with us too. We’re cool with that as well. And just in case you haven’t seen the “official” clip, here it is as well:
