The video opens with a captions stating that "in 1950, Michigan was 1 of 8 states in America that collectively produced 36% of the world's GNP" and that "Detroit was the greatest manufacturing city in the world". It then cuts to present-day images of the city, featuring Eminem walking through three abandoned structures from that era that symbolized the "Arsenal of Democracy" (Michigan Central Station, the former Packard plant, and Tiger Stadium, including demolition footage of the latter), joined by several people appropriate to that building (an older woman with a suitcase, several autoworkers holding their lunchboxes and tools, and a neighborhood youth baseball team respectively). Although the original song contains three verses, the music video only displays the first two.

Jennifer's Body Movie Promo[MEGAN FOX]


MOVIE PREVIEW
Jennifer's Body is a 2009 dark comedy and horror film written by Diablo Cody. The film, described as similar in tone to Heathers,will be directed by Karyn Kusama, and stars Megan Fox as the title character, Amanda Seyfried as her best friend Needy, and Adam Brody as the antagonist Nikolai. The movie is named after a song by Hole.

A cheerleader with the perfect life becomes the girl from hell when she gets possessed and begins killing boys in a small town.

Megan Fox was in negotiations to star as Jennifer, the perfect possessed cheerleader, since the film was announced in 2007, and was officially cast in October 2007. In February 2008, Amanda Seyfried was cast as Needy, the "plain Jane" best friend to Fox's character. Chud.com reported on the casting of Nikolai that the filmmakers were looking at actual rock band members Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy and Joel Madden of Good Charlotte. Also considered was actor Chad Michael Murray. In March 2008, actor Johnny Simmons was reportedly cast as the male lead Nikolai Wolf. However, Adam Brody was officially cast in the role of Nikolai, while Simmons was then given the role of Chip.

In late 2007, Fox Atomic had plans to film Jennifer's Body before a possible writer's strike. However, when the Writers Guild of America strike began, shooting was then moved to March 7, 2008 in Burnaby, British Columbia, specifically at Robert Burnaby Park near Cariboo Hill Secondary School. Some of the scenes, particularly those situated in a school setting, were filmed in local Vancouver-area schools, such as Vancouver Technical Secondary School, Langley Secondary School and University Hill Secondary School.

All Time Low, Little Boots, Cobra Starship, Panic at the Disco, and Dashboard Confessional are amongst those so far announced to be featured on the soundtrack.
