For those supporting Gaga as a director, may I point you in the direction of the done-by-children camerawork in TEOG & You & I? Thanks.

Well, for starters, those were directed by the Haus, not solely by Gaga. So that argument is already questionable. Division of labor on a film set is already difficult to trace, and being credited as a joint product, it's not entirely fair to attribute that to Gaga. While I do think Gaga has been pretty clearly the auteur of her work since about Paparazzi (notice how much better Pap and Telephone are than, say the godawful mess of Hold It Against Me--all "directed" by Akerlund. Pap and Telephone are so much better because Gaga's aesthetics/ideas/influence suffuse those whole videos), its hard to lay the blame of shoddy camerawork directly at her feet. Regardless, Gaga paired herself with top notch creative collaborators on MTN (Ponte and Khondji) and, lo and behold, the cinematography and art direction are ****ing sharp in MTN. All those technical flaws of her previous two videos were gone.

Yoü and I is much better than EOG, and solely on directorial skills MTN is great.

Though I do agree she could do great with extra guidance. Co-directing isn't a bad idea.

3 points in and ready for more

I completely agree with you. Gaga has fantastic ideas, and they really are brilliant ideas. But when it comes to the actual execution of her ideas, I feel like Gaga needs people there to guide her, in a sense. It's like she tends to get carried away with her ideas until it ends up being a giant convoluted mess that could have been something brilliant if she had someone more experienced to help her out.

Jonas and Gaga work well together, imo. I hope they continue to work together.

You know what? I feel really bad for BTW. This fanbase is always thinking on what she did wrong, what she has to change, what were the worst things, etc. Why can't we talk about the good things of the era? Like seriously. You can't just despise so much effort and work.

Just a personal thought, anyway :shutup:

Completely agree. She worked harder on BTW era. I think things weren't that easy for her, despite agreeing with some criticism. And its over anyway.
