Here's a very interesting video that gives us a comparison of the music videos directed by David Fincher and Michael Bay. Both of these popular directors got their start directing music videos, and it looks like Bay lifted a ton of stuff from several of Fincher's video's to put in his Meat Loaf videos.
Before I watched this I thought it was probably just a coincidence, but the more the video played, the more it looked like Bay actually stole shots from Fincher! It's pretty crazy. So do you think Bay idolized Fincher to the point of paying tribute to him, or did he just flat out steal those shots and pass them off as his own? Watch the video!
Thanks to /Film for the heads up!
