Yes, you should always top the list, but to truly live in the now, your favourite person should be the one you are talking to at that moment, which might explain why John looks a little wistful at the end.
Wow. That was great, the perfect thing to see right this minute. John C. Reilly + Miranda July = YEAH! Now I'm going to go make a list of people whose favorite I am. I hope I have enough paper. ;) Hahahahahahaha.... Hmmm.
The video is about the sad human condition. Maybe the video was just the start of the research, maybe the meaning continues to unfold in conversations about it. I'm looking at the comments here and all the lonely sad people, keep writing "I don't get it" Maybe that's the point. Maybe people want a loud and flashy 15 second commercial with a plot twist and some sex appeal, trying to sell them something, leaving them with the hollow feeling inside that flashy tv and useless purchases cover up.
this is awesome ! It;s so sad to realize that you;re nobody's favorite person ... or to think haw sure u are abt this .. would be sad also to lie yourself thinking that u're smb 'favorite person and not to be .... really sad .
So the oranges were a compensation 4 those who aren't favorite to anyone ... We shall all be more tolerant with each other ... so , we could afford to be smb's favorite or to have a favorite person .
How nice it is to be someone's favourite person, something all of us should have the gift of being - the video reminds us of these simple valuable things about life
hmm, maybe it was just too obvious. For a film like this you would expect some deep implicit meaning, but its a pretty general theme. That's why i don't like it, it's not clever or deep at all. Nor is it funny.
Well, its probably about that we shouldn't put people into numbers and shouldn't care so much about what others think about.
Remember, his question wasn't:Are you loved/liked strongly by someone/many?
Which means, it wasn't about the positive part, but the negative part of having a favorite.If you have a favorite, all the others become less.
It wasn't about how strongly you're liked, but if you're just liked more, than others, meaning: public opinion.

Your favorite person should be yourself. Anyone else is just gravy.

Did I mean right if the 2nd guy also had have a girlfriend? If so, the first chick did too, but she knew she's someone's fave.

Wow I feel stupid. I don't really get it. I guess I was looking for some hidden meaning, and I didn't find one.
