    Thanks for the links.

    Personally I don't like the video. It's pretentious. Did They even se this? Or were just hangover?

    Do you guys know what "pretentious" means? It's basically a live video, and that "fake" crowd is actually a bunch of unemployed workers who got to attend a free Pearl Jam concert. That's pretentious?

    as it should be! mix it up a bit at the front.
    ok, mixing it up - fine, but these people were paid to enjoy PJ.

    And the whole unemployed thing - it's not that, they were just looking to work as extras! Joey, Get a real paying service job while you look for your big break! :lol:

    I usually defend the band on almost everything (somtimes to a fault) but this is the first time I have actually hated something they've put out. It's something that feels like a Jonas Brothers video or some other teeny bopper act. Nothing will ever change my opinion of the band but man this is really bad. Just my 2 cents. Can't wait 'til Sunday!

    Not exactly sure what a Jonas Brother video would look like but this is what I imagine. It's really only the crowd thing that is killing it for me in a bad, bad way

    Why are people talking about unemployed people? Professional shoots use professional extras. Maybe some of those people got a casting call and they didn't have work but to say that the crowd was all unemployed is ridiculous. I said it was unfortunate they had to go this route but it was the only way they could attempt to film this without getting out. We all know how successful that was. These deals are set in stone by lawyers and hard "release dates". There were no "unemployed" people used in the making of this commercial. To say so is comical.

    That was the whole point, Pearl Jam planned a secret mini-concert and they performed this song. Cameron Crowe filmed it.

    Cameron Crowe is A little un-connected these days to say the least... Nonetheless, I wonder if this will help them 'fix' things with the MTV kids! :D

    All we need is a Lil Jon cameo, and straight to #1!

    Life Wasted was even better than this.
    Life has nothing to do with killing time.
    So why be satisfied?

    im not a fan of the Fixer, but the video is fine. I'll take vids of the band playing over crap like the Jeremy vid anyday. the crowd noise is a little irritating.

    The "Life Wasted" video was very good, so why are you guys comparing this to that as an insult?

    fromt the comments here i expected something along the lines of the U2 and Colplay commercials. this was refreshingly simple to me though.

    i dont get this. its just the band playing in front of a crowd with some screens in the back. this could be similar to Jonas Bros, The Beatles, or fucking David Bowie! what exactly makes it seem kiddy?
