Another Cool Beastie Boys Mini Movie - "Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win"

The Beasties have always been up on mutli-formatting their tunes, the were MTV staples back in the day with "Fight For Your Right" and were doing enhanced CD's back in the 90's.  A few months back they released an extended video for "Make Some Noise" that was chock full of A-List stars and wild throwbacks to their youth.
That video was directed by MCA himself, looks like a few songs off the new album will be getting this treatment.  This time they got back together with the uber-talented director Spike Jonze who (amongst a shit load of other hip stuff) constructed the B'Boys fantastic "Sabotage" video.

The song for this journey is "Don't Play No Game That I Can't Win" with Santigold guesting and you can peep the full 11+ minute video here:



A list of things I dig in the video:
Doll Crowd Surfing
Over Enthusiastic Knife Maiming 
Yeti-Copter!!!
MCA Clutching a Teddy Bar
Solo D
and the complete Thunderbirds on a nickel budget:


Still don't know if it is much of a song, but the video was entertaining.
