BEST FILM/VIDEO EVER

[floatingcompassmedia]

I saw this movie back in the 80s...last great decade \m/

GREAT VID

[katie12x]

Very sad.

[PrimeSlave]

Great song and this video is well done tribute to it and to Iron Maiden. Thanks, man!

[Mallemaster]

That was incredible. Wow

[MrsShinigami10]

Great song!

[TheTrooper9169666]

The point is - in the song, nuclear catastrophe never happened, the 2 persons from the song have though that it was going to happen, and made themselves a shelter, then, in the end, drank the poison,and died, but nothing really happened outside of their shelter, but, nevertheless - video is amazing, great jump, and thumbs up :)

[ImagiKing]

@TheTrooper9169666 You're right there, but the bombing was really all I could take from the movie to put in with the solo.

[TheTrooper9169666]

@ImagiKing HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH I wrote jump instead of job - unbelievable haahahahahah xD

[andyatt7]

@TheTrooper9169666 Just for the record it's the movie's storyline that differs from Raymond Briggs original story and Steve has taken his lyrical inspiration from the Book not the movie.

[tourdeforce17]

Fantastic video for a brilliant song.

[ManDorkish]

When I saw the length of this song last year I was like "What?!? 11 minutes?!" After I bought the album, I heard this song last. 'I was blown away' is an understatement. The song is one of the best songs ever written, and easily the best song of 2010.

These 11 minutes pass by in less than a minute. Epic.

[catshumpcats3]

The only way to win nuclear war, is to prevent it.

[saiyanblade84]

Wow. Amazing.

[jarlo99]

Great clips from the source video-- yet another amazing maiden epic!! And yes may the cold war RIP!

[martyedge]

[ivain0911]

UP THE IRONS!!!!

From Mexico \m/

[6Andrew6Kearney6]

If you watch the interview, you will see that steve's inspiration for this song, came from this film

[DevilsExperiment]

Good idea, but badly executed, sorry.

If you had synced the video up to what the song was telling it would have been awesome.

[ImagiKing]

@DevilsExperiment I don't know whether you've seen the film, but the plot is completely different from that of the song, aside from the characters. I matched up what I could.

[YouCantDeleteDenzelL]

@ImagiKing Correct. In the movie, the fallout does happen, they go outside and expose themselves to it, managing to get sick, and the last 20 minutes shows them awaiting their deaths. In the song, the fallout is mistaken, the news report the mistake and say that what's really is an earthquake, but the couple denies it, so they kill themselves to avoid it. The message of the song is about how people make the biggest deal of disasters heard on the news,

[MaidenArgentina]

oh my holy f*ckness, this, this is unbelievable... been sharing it to EVERY friend in facebook since i discovered it, its beyond fantastic and emotive... just cant avoid sheding tears allover the clip, definitely the BEST video ive seen in youtube in my life, IRON MAIDEN THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED TO MY LIFE EVER

[lyon1535]

This made the song and the movie more emotional for me, especially at the part where Bruce begins singing "He sees the picture on the wall it's falling down". The part after that... I don't know why, but this video made me somehow want to cry.

[ImagiKing]

@lyon1535 Thanks! Good to know you like it. When I first heard the song I couldn't believe how well it fitted the movie, even though the plots are quite different.

[Supremeghostalpha]

@lyon1535

Shit, and i thougt i was the only one, who cried at that moment.

I have the same opinion as you lyon1535

One of the best fitting Fan made Music Video i've ever seen.

[catshumpcats3]

@lyon1535 because this song is about the end, and nuclear war,

[irvan36mm]

You'd like "Threads". Scared the shit outta me the first time I've seen it. Even had bad dreams from it for over a year! LOL

[grdja83]

Its a English "fake documentary" style movie from early '80es about WWIII. Extremely bleak and depressing, and then you google a bit and see that most serious analysts said it portrayed effects of nuclear war too optimistically.

[grdja83]

Can I use the word "nice" for something like this. You could make it "better" by adding in scenes from Threads but that would be pure masochism.

Good bye Cold War, may you never come back.

[ImagiKing]

@grdja83 Never heard of Threads. Seems like something worth checking out.

[irvan36mm]

@grdja83 You could probably throw in scenes from "The War Game" in this video,too. LOL

[ALEXULYET]

Great video! Love the song and the album.

[Zayin666]

Cool video!! Nice edit :)

[zZHighwayToHellZz]

very nice video <3

[chusillo88]

nice video, i mean, with the song

[SheeeepyBarbatus]

Was wondering if someone would do this :) Good stuff!

[TheDrunkenHer0]

iRON mAIDEN IS A TRIP

[FabioDello94]
