To my eyes, it looks pretty authentic and pretty cool. That’s not to say that it’s a finished product or that it will appear in the film, but it doesn’t seem to be fan-generated. What’s your opinion? Let us know in the comments!

Looks authentic to me! I can’t wait to see it.
This is a screen test from 2005 shot in Griffith Park. The young actor is Griffin Armstorff. There were four scenes shot that day and all were improv by the actor. The actor has worked with Spike before in the Yeah Yeah Yeah video, “Y-Control”.
Thank you for posting an great song 😉 I really like it!
