Oct 11, 2008 - And this is what happens when parents force the boys to play with dolls.

Oct 11, 2008 - I love their work, but it is extremely derivative of jan svankmajer
mapgoon Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - Raw, unfiltered, undistilled, genius. Period.
FizzyChimp Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - They'd already formed their style by the time they discovered his work
FizzyChimp Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - (jan svankmajer's)
dsp128 Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - I always think the only similarities between Quay and Svankmajer are the audio/video editing styles that are so precise. Using puppets isn't really that unique in stop frame animation. What else campares them do you think?

Oct 11, 2008 - Are all white men gay? LOL! WOOOOO!!!!

Oct 11, 2008 - die sind zehr interresant aber etwas fehlt manchmal.. aber die versuch uber ihr arbeit zu sprechen ist nicht eine gute idee... uber was mann kann nicht sagen "muss mann schweigen"

Oct 11, 2008 - but if you actually have something to say about it, why stay silent. if you do not want to hear about it, just skip this and enjoy their movies.
mediawardotcom Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - do all blockheads confuse sensitivity for sexual preference? or were those words a little too complex for you.

Oct 11, 2008 - what museum is their interview in?
lubydub Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - that is whats hard to find...old creepy vintage dolls

Oct 11, 2008 - Adam Jones influence? Anyone, Anyone?
Djomigod Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - The Tool Video was a literal Aping of a style they'd already been winning awards for years ahead of Adam Jones.He's good- but they came first.
Thecorrectopinion Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - Yeah that's what I was hinting at, that these guys are an influence on Adam's work. I'm well aware that these guys were around first.
Djomigod Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - These guys are such geniuses. An entire generation of aesthetic, based on the oddball work of two eccentric twins. Dave McKean, every ridiculous album cover & video from the 90's- nothing ever came close to these two.And just LOOK at them! They should be on Good Morning America if they ever needed someone to announce the Apocalypse. ;)
Thecorrectopinion Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - Yeah, I try to do all that I can to spread the name of these guys. It's a shame how few people have actually heard of these geniuses. I'm sure they get satisfaction in knowing that their brain children have given birth to an entire art culture.
mackmccann Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - they're open about their admiration for Svankmajer...they even did a piece dedicated to him.... but it sounds like you're trying to minimize their originality and i think that's a mistake. their work is pure genius.
MarieEtOlivia Says:
Oct 11, 2008 - Godbless these two, their incredible! They clearly have the best relationship that a duet of artists can have because they are twins. I love them, and their work is an undying inspiration. Long Live the Brothers Quay.

Oct 11, 2008 - That was really interesting, i liked what they said about music being the blood, and like a dialog in a different language.I am an animator, and thats the way i feel about the music - i use no spoken script at all.I like the image of it being like blood..flowing through the body of the film, giving it life.
