Apo, since you and I were discussing this last night on another forum, I wanted to add some other thoughts I had here:
I believe that the movie tags are ALWAYS incongrous.
In other words, Bree says "Bad News Bears," to alert Daniel that she doesn't really mean what she's saying. Jonas says, "Rocky," because B&D are intentionally pretending to fight.
"Breaking Point," would imply that although Daniel is SAYING buddy-buddy things about Jonas, he doesn't really trust him.
Anyway.. I threw this out last night before Apo left. He's done some further research since. But, I wanted to share my developing theory.

I've posted this elsewhere, but I believe if a comedy is mentioned, then the dramatic content is false.
If a drama is mentioned, than the comedic or light content is false.
I believe it is a code for incongruity, so that people will know what is actually true--either way.

I'd almost like to think that could be true..since the Creatorzors said they would be adding more symbolism into the videos...but part of me also thinks that is stretching it.
I feel like we're starting to create theories based on things we aren't seeing, instead of on what we have seen.

you know marbella...you might ahve just convinced me on it!!! lol
But i also have a feeling that the movie mentions and tags are jsut their way of wriggling into popculture.
But marbella....man you drove a hard ball!!! You've convinced me.
But first let me get this straight (i'm going to type it the way i'm defining what you wrote in a simplified way):
You are basicly saying that the movie titles are foreshadowing the emotions and events that are about to happen or are happening in the video.
