music video to movie

i saw this on JoBlo.com and thought "Agreed"






Music videos have always been an underappreciated artform. MTV, which launched the medium into the mainstream, doesn't even play them anymore. But I've always been a big fan of music videos and always felt like I was watching a tiny, little movie. Considering some music video directors have gone on to great things in cinema (Spike Jonze, David Fincher, et. al.), that's not surprising.
Considering we've had TV series, video games, comics, musicals, toys and board games all adapted for movies, why not music videos? OK that probably wouldn't work but here are 10 music videos that should have been movies. I tried to avoid the obvious like "November Rain," "Thriller" and "Sabotage" and go with some out of the box choices.

p.s. Radiohead's "Just" is one of the greatest things to ever happen to anyone ever.
