Chris Cunningham vs Spike Jonze vs Michel Gondry

[Perversion]

All three have DVDs devoted to their music videos, and two of the three have done numerous films. Who do you like the best? Discuss.

I guess I'd say Spike Jonze, but he's had the longest career so far so it isn't really fair.

I think I like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind more than any of Spike Jonze's films though.

Michel Gondry's always interesting, with some real "how did he do that?!" moments in his videos. But it's usually hit or miss. The DVD of his makes up for it by including tons of videos, though! And I hear Science of Sleep is good. Eternal Sunshine's awesome.

Chris Cunningham's dark visions are awesome, too. Too bad there are so few on his DVD. It's worse that the packaging shows videos that aren't included in the set. Still, I like him even if his work tends to seem the same.

Spike Jonze has the right mix of styles of video along with a fair bit of them on his disc. If you like rap or rock or even Bjork, they're all there and there's usually something clever and charming about him. He's the most balanced, so I tend to gravitate towards him. And Adaptation and Being John Malkovich are hilarious and post-modern.
