Well... If the full 3min cut of this commercial does not follow a music video-like structure and doesn't feature the full song, it will be like 5 minutes after the release until some fans put together a music video for scheisse. This is just too great!

I wish, but I thought so when Gaga released Stuck on fukcin you... but There's no really good fanmade full studio version yet...

If I like it, then that's what I get!

Galactic Mess

Well, I can't say much as to whether or not you like the angle, but I don't think there's inherently anything wrong with the high angle. I actually really liked it, because for a song about New York that angle actually gave you a sense of geography and space. It wasn't all claustrophobic close ups. I also liked the extended studio scene. The whole video very purposely walks this fine (and strange) line between verite style filming and aesthetics and outright fantasy (yes, yes, this video more than any other to date takes head on her obsession with reality versus fantasy and the way the two bleed together) and I think the extended studio scenes are a perfect foil for the very music-videoish rooftop car explosion dance scenes. And I don't think the "mess" at the end is messy at all (I assume you're talking about the rapid-fire montage--I actually thought it was fairly tightly edited and also a bit ballsy to not just re-edit scenes into it that we've already scene [such as her apartment freak out and the ballet stuff] but to introduce new episodes from her life in those super-quick snippets). I actually just rewatched this video and it's even BETTER than I remember. I fukcing lover her use of asynchronous sound throughout, and especially love the way film reel can be heard faintly in the background of pretty much the whole prelude. So, so good! :worship:

Yep, I understand she did all of that on purpose, I just think she coul've exposed those ideas in a different, cooler, and more appealing way :)

So the black goo in Prometheus is really...FAME?!

I WAS THINKING THE EXACT SAME THING. I love that movie.

I hope Gagz continues to work with Ridley Scott. I love him so much.

It makes me a little sad that this isn't going to be as hyped as a normal music video, because it definitely deserves it. As far as I can see in the trailer, it's going to be better than the Bad Romance video.

She's sitting with crushed apricot on her at the end

That's what that was? At first I thought they were egg yolks. :sweat:

I think some of the style reminds me of Alien :o does any one else agree? I read on Twitter that Ridley Scott is producing it?

YES! I automatically thought of Alien and Prometheus.

GAGAKLEIN + Ridley Scott needs to happen MUCH MORE often. :legend:

I'm not sure this Ridley Scott talk has been confirmed anywhere. It's quite possible the Alien/Prometheus vibe simply stems from an HR Giger influence over the production design. He's the guy who designed the Alien, and a lot of the production design of the Alien franchise is inspired by his biomechanical surrealist style. Gaga's and Knight's BTW video was already compared to Giger, and obviously his Alien design inspired that Armani outfit for the tour, so this might just be in line with all of that. If you're not familiar with his stuff you should totally check it out. It's pretty amazing (though also a bit :wtf: )

Anybody remember that one insider guy whose friend apparently worked in the commercial? And gave details about a bloody bathtub/vomiting into a another man's mouth? I guess he was right :haha:

Damn, looks like a mix of Alejandro, BTW, and MTN with a whole lotta something else. Exciting.

3 points in and ready for more
