Hope you had a great time writing all this witty pejorative response but let me tell you something, you can still make your points without being an asshole. Your opinion does not invalidate mine and my comment was clearly not "insufferable" since a lot of people seem to agree with what I said. So please take several stadium seats before coming for me boo. I realize it came off as pretentious to mention I'm a film student but you can't deny the "certain look" they were going for didn't translate well to the screen. I'm talking about the mix of brutal hand held camera work and smooth dolly slow motion shots that simply didn't go well together. And hey you gotta stop trying to justify every single thing she does with "Oh no, no, no, they were going for that look, it was the intended aesthetic". I you feel the need to keep telling yourself that then something's not right. I can make a crappy video and quote lots of famous directors and genres as my influence but that won't make it better. Whatever

It's not the same but when I click the 'See All Comments' button and the page is not fully loaded it automatically scrolls to the top... idk if this is normal but it bugs me a little lol

I'll give you that it had quite a few nice moments, such as the beginning and Lana by the window but it just seems choppy to me. I just wish it had been shot in slow motion just like the first three shots and the ending sequence. That would've made it flow better but to each it's own I guess. btw I'm not against hand-held footage at all but the whole following Lana around that empty house ended up looking a bit amateurish and dull

It's nice to see people who clearly don't know shit talk about camera work for example. Camera movements were terrible and all over the place. There were a few nice moments, like the beginning and the ending but overall I wouldn't call the camera work good. Another thing that bugs me is those random cuts and repetitions that make absolutely no sense becuase they don't have a purpose and were poorly executed. I study film production so I'm coming from knowledge. And it's not like I'm a die hard BTD fan and I want those videos back, I truly enjoyed UV's visuals and I think SOC is one of her best videos as well. As someone said above me it's a mediocre video, a good concept but a poor execution. Expecting tons of GURL BYE and stupid reaction gifs after saying all this

I strongly dislike the HBTB music video (although it has a few nice moments) and the song itself does absolutely nothing for me... Haven't listened to it for days now

If you don't like don't read lmao this is how forums work

AS I previously posted I like the idea but not the execution. The fact that it's a funny/satyrical video doesn't mean it can't have nice visuals as well. I think it's a meh video

Well try comparing this video to BTD or even SOC and you'll figure it out. And it's not like I'm super critical, I like most of what she puts out but I think this could've been done differently, show her struggle adding more paparazzi harassing her on the beach for example. For most of the video it looks as if she didn't care about the helicopter and next thing I know she's running down to grab a gun to take it down

This was both terrible and amazing at the same time I'm... I don't know what to say Once again we have a great idea and a not-so-good execution I liked the part with the helicopter by the window but I think its just awkward how she sees the plane, then goes inside and lays on her bed, then she picks the magazine and she runs outside to grab the gun. I agree with the user above, I don't think making it a 'linear' music video helped that much... it just made it awkward.

I wonder if people at Interscope are remotely aware a bunch of 15 year old twinks have access to Lana's Vevo account

This album has slayed me beyond repair Training Wheels and Mrs. Potato Head are genius, two of my favourites

What about Surf Trap Hip Pop? it has a nice ring to it

What kind of gangster narco queen teas She's fucking crazy I love her

How is this any different than you leaking the lyrics if I may ask? You're a joke lol

a. re-read my previous post b. FUCK OFF c. All of the above I EAT MY WORDS LIKE FUCKING POPCORN

Yeah when I saw that I was like FUCK OFF LMAO

Just when I thought we couldn't possibly get crappier lyrics... oh well

Sometimes she's just mumbling because of the improv so the lyrics don't matter that much imo I love it when she says 'so pretty!'

Can't you tell someone added that caption and did a horrible job?

SAVE THEM INMEDIATELY YES

The first one is definitely Lana and it's slaying my existence same goes for the second track What are these? Info?

But why do you think High by the Beach is MTWBT? There's absolutely nothing that corroborates that? Just because we thought MTWBT would be a single and ended not being so doesn't mean she scrapped the song or changed the title to HBTB... Not saying it's impossible but it's a (silly) assumption someone made and a lot of people are holding onto it BTW she shot the single cover/music video(hopefully) in her Malibu house, that we can all agree on

How about no

Actually it's a telescope, binoculars are a pair of telescopes mounted together

THIS. People on this forum like to reach so much I just can't
