Kanye West + Spike Jonze = Fairytale

POSTED BY Screen Junkies | MONDAY OCTOBER 19 AT 12:36 PDT 

Where the Wild Things Are arrived this past weekend, and it pretty much turned out to be a therapy session with a bunch of clinically depressed forty-somethings dressed like furries. So when we heard that "We Were Once a Fairytale," the Spike Jonze-directed film starring Kanye West, hit the Web today, it was the news equivalent of a Xanax. 

We have the 11-minute piece here, minus the first minute or so. Spoiler alert: it's effing weird.

Yeah, like we said, pretty weird. I'd like to see Spike Jonze revisit themes in Adaptation and do a film in which Kanye starts to interrupt himself, and then find out that his entire life was actually the daydream of an autistic child staring at a snow globe. That autistic child's name? Kanye West. 

Yo, Kanye, I'm really happy for you, and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time.

I think Kanye is imitating Leonardo DiCaprio's character from 'What's Eating Gilbert Grape?'

Oh, he's one of "those" drunk guys... It's a good thing he didn't need to buy the club to get more people to like him - and yeah, if the artist that sung a song randomly appeared on the same dance floor I was on as that song was playing, I'd be sooooo creeped out. wtf filth

I think Kanye's car crash left him brain damaged and it hasn't been diagnosed yet...

Isn't he a gay fish?

Hmm, interesting. I'll give them points for actually making you feel uncomfortable while watching it. Although I'm not sure this is going to win Kanye any best actor awards.

He's not even acting in this. It's just a day in the life of Kanye West. Who cares...
