'Sports' Video in Speechless


Did anyone else notice that 'Sports' 80's inspired video in Speechless was almost a direct copy of Saved By The Bell's Hot Sundae video?

That building is also a Starbucks?

Yes.

Is there a law?

It wasn't a secret.

Did not catch that though I noticed they wanted to imitate some generic-gym-video-of-the-80ies style. Unfortunatly the grading sucked which made it look like a bad 2014 music sequence. It felt a bit like the director did not really understand what they wanted to acomplish.

This is one instance where the original YouTube video is much better. Pity they couldn't have just used that.
