i expect to draw a lot of sentiment with what i'm going to say:

anyone saw this smashing pumpkins musicvid called 'tonight,tonight'? it's
almost like aatw and i thought that was a rip off from yellow submarine?
but honestly i think the aatw is better.yeah.

This reads as if you are saying that Smashing Pumpkins copied AATW video -
is that what you mean?

Tonight Tonight was on the album Melon Collie & The Infinte Sadness, which,
if memory serves, was released autumn 1995..... a little earlier than Be
Here Now!

The all around the world video was made by the same director as Tonight
Tonight, but Tonight Tonight was first!

Tonight, Tonight was based on Georges Méliès' "Le Voyage DAns la Lune
[Voyage To The Moon]" from 1902. He was first a magician and then a
visionary filmmaker who specialized in visual "tricks".

AATW was done by the same directors and I seem to remember Noel and
Liam saying they wanted a Yellow submarine-meets-Monty Python look.

wonderful as Spike Jonze.
