Roboboy 3,777 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 What's your guys' interpretation of the opening film of TCB? It sort of scared me when I first saw it in the best way, it's so confronting and aggressive and so random - from the cosmic imagery to the spider-like figure to the camera lens to the finale with Gaga in the liquid ballgown, creation of Gaga? creation of Chromatica? It's always stayed with me and I honestly think about it all the time. much to think about Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vengaboy 1,319 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 No idea but in hindsight I feel it's a shame we didn't get full on EDM rainbow rave aestethic for this tour. It's what Chromatica deserved. I wonder how different The MAYHEM Ball will be to the brutalist vibe of the CBT. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red 98,118 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I thinks it’s a representation of the psychotic breakdown she had before making Chromatica that is metaphorically healed throughout the show If you see me posting like crazy, I'm either bored or procrastinating. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the original Chromatica visuals were great, but with the costuming of the music videos in mind... I think that concept would've looked really cheap on stage tbh. Kinda like some of the enigma stuff looked. excuse me no 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mars 2,380 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 For me the beginning definitely signifies some sort of conception. In hindsight, the latter part is kissing goodbye to the mask of her former self. 1 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starmie25 18,951 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Chromatica Ball almost feels like when the main character returns to the first level to face the final boss. Edited March 19 by Starmie25 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) it reminds me of this video and also the gareth pugh dress she wore on x factor for bad romance.... there is a hudge nod to thefamemonster. knowing she starts wit BR. It's not about the meaning but the context. I was almost certain she already used the Gareth Pugh dress for an interlude but i can't find it maybe some of you may remember better ? Edit : I think that she merged with the city now. In the MB interlude she's naked in the city and now she is the massive black shape in the frame. This might be about embodying her art more than ever. reach or preach ? Edited March 19 by Nathaniel Arven Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

QueenMortuana 1,199 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I feel like the colorful imagery of the beginning of Chromatica would've ended up being pretty similar to parts of the artrave in a live setting. Although I did like those visuals in the beginning of the era. I'm glad we got something that matched the lyrics of Chromatica and how she was feeling during the creation of the album.
