Intertextuality & Post Modernism
Intertextuality is when one media text refers to or draws ideas from another media text. This could include films, images, music videos, web content etc. For those that understand the references, the experience of watching the music video is more enjoyable but this doesn't mean that for those that don't understand the reference it is less enjoyable.

Blink 182's "All The Small Things"
This video makes fun of a lot of late 90s and early 2000s Pop music videos that were well-known and iconic at the time, including one of their own songs. A lot of people in their 20's and older would recognize these videos being played with and be able to laugh at the ridiculousness of them.
Some of the referenced videos include:
Backstreet Boys - I Want It That Way
N Sync - Tearin' Up My Heart
TLC - Creep
Sugar Ray - Someday
Britney Spears - Sometimes
Christina Aguilera - Genie In A Bottle
Ricky Martin - Livin' La Vida Loca
98 Degrees - I Do (Cherish You)
Backstreet Boys - Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)
Blink 182 - What's My Age Again?
