You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself marry the villain

[liamhotze]

He won the custody battle and that's hilarious. Maybe a villain, but never a bad father.

[JimSting]

The look on the wife's face during dinner is some of the best acting ever. She's trying so hard to make him happy, then realises it is hopeless. Expressing all that without a word is the pinnacle of acting.

[phoenixquo]

I unironically believe this is one of the best music videos ever created

[seanfall]

"So agent, how did you stop him this time?" "I...uh...married him sir." "....Well congratulations."

[twentylush]

At least the bald guy supports good working conditions. Work ends on the clock, no unpaid overtime even when work is ramping up, good security, nobody seems to be overtly unsatisfied with their job, though it is an underground lair it seems to be as well kept as it can be. Solid 8/10, would absolutely work there, maybe needs some PPE for the hot zones but other than that looks like a fulfilling place of work.

[zwordsman]

I like that the random minions are 1000% on board with their bosses romance with the enemy. They don't argue at all when he lets him go. Don't even blink. and when he comes back to dance? they're 100% on board with helping the beat and area all individually giddy with the hand taps. They were shipping them.

[tomaspabon]

I really love the way the choreography changes from frantic and disjointed to deliberate, complex and coordinated when they start dancing together

[MDestron]

The henchman that pauses to eye the camera and give a cheeky 'ooooh' needs a raise.

[feliciabacon]

That part where the villian turns around and smiles so happily after the captive comes walking towards him melts my heart, he looked so happy and that makes me happy

[PadraicSmith]

I love how it just hits 5 o'clock and evil activities just stop like....

Guess the minions have a good union.

[Wilternative]

7 years later and I'm still coming back to this. One of the greatest music videos of all time.

[Lehmannation]

Miike Snow: I need you to make a video for Genghis Khan.
Ninian Doff: ... Did you say 'Gay James Bond?'
Miike Snow: ...YES

[muzikill]

Well done to the person who did the colour grading as it looks exactly the same stock as those famous 60s spy films.

The Song: a story of obsession, jealousy, and resentment about a dysfunctional open relationship.
The Music Video: just the most adorable romantic fanfiction about Blofeld and Bond you have ever seen.

[ianmcnaney]

I haven’t even thought about this song in ages, but randomly woke up last night with it stuck in my head.

My favorite part by far is the red light and buzzer at 5 pm. The Evil Lair is closed until tomorrow at 9 am. Stop your evil lasering until tomorrow and go home to your “loved” ones. This isn’t you, this is just your day job.

That’s when he really stops and asks himself what he’s even doing, and why.

[fufufuaru]

He doesn't overwork his minions. He definitely gets "best boss ever" mugs on his birthday.

[Crispy_Bee]

Bond: "Do you expect me to talk?"

Goldfinger: "No, Mr Bond. I expect you to dance!"

[floating_in_glass]

More than anything in the world, I want to see a full motion picture adaptation of this story.

[wasteddruid]

The smile he makes when the spy turns around and comes back to him is so good and makes me smile every time.
