Aural Only: Beastie Boys

Your feelings on the new Beastie Boys‘ single “Make Some Noise” will largely be based upon your opinion of the Beastie Boys in general. However, you don’t have to be a fan to enjoy the accompanying music video, which features a bunch of random famous people you’ve seen on television and theater screens.

See how many you can spot before referring to this handy guide. Here’s a hint to start you off! The guys playing the Beastie Boys? They’re actually Seth Rogen, Elijah Wood and Danny McBride. Look, we realize that one may have been pretty obvious for some of you, but we went through two-thirds of the video without recognizing two-thirds of that equation.

  3. Was Orlando Bloom the windshield washer? ~3:56 I don’t think I’ve seen that boy since PotC number whatever-the-fuck…
