Norman Fucking Rockwell - Pre-Release Thread

[venicebitch 14,339]

I just rewatched Ride mv after probably a year or so and shit… if the FIILY/TG is at least half this good.

 

btw the teaser gives me more of an Anthony Mandler than Rich Lee vibe which is weird.

her power

Lana Del Rey is the Scarlett Johansen of the music world but instead of playing characters from different etnies she plays characters from different socioeconomic groups  we stan a problematic socioeconomical appropriator queen!

Me too! And im way more emotional now than i was in 2012 so that’s a new experience for me I can appreciate her old videos way more, back then they were kind of just beautiful images for me I guess

Btw i saw you guys discussing her worst music videos earlier and naming FIILY/TG “the best video since mtwbt” and I just want to say mtwbt is definitely her worst to me (and this is my fav song of her so it hurts even more)… like I can’t stand her putting a b&w filter over such beautiful colors which made this video so bland ugh. I can’t stand it honestly. Not to mention the drama with the actors asking her fans for nudes on snapchat and being attention whores overall. And her chipped tooth lol

yooooooo what?

[Cacciatore 19,347]

[Vanilla Icy 29,602]

She was playing a character??????? Like guys don't do this lmao...

didnt say she wasn't playing a character. just in the video she was a homeless prostitute 

[venicebitch 14,339]

yooooooo what?

 

Yeah i even remember making a theard for that back in the day. They ended up being in the mv for like 0.2 seconds lmao im curious if that was the result of their clownery online

[takeitdoen 10,627]

Wow what the fuck is up with you people. I literally have no idea why you are talking about her being 'poor' or a prostitute in the new video.

 

So far sure is doing karaoke, walking the docks at sunset, lounging on a yacht, and being a bartender. Besides the yacht thing (which I have been on a few times), I do all those things regularly and I'm not poor. I'm sort of insulted by the audacity. Furthermore, she is almost always playing a character or telling a narrative.

 

It IS a simple life though. It sure resonates on the line 'I miss doing nothing most of all'.

 

Please tell me what you think she SHOULD be doing in these videos, because apparently you think the video should be a one shot of her lobotomised body. (Omigod, imagine)

[Tristesse 1,765]

oh my GOD. can you imagine living in a world only full of ppl like this clown. Art would be forbidden

[Ryusei 5,071]

If that is problematic then any movie portraying anything else other than average people who live a happy life with no problems (aka no movie ever) is problematic. It's acting... it's not that deep. + How is the Ride video about being poor or using that as an aesthetic?? It's about freedom, boundless freedom, doing whatever you want. "I just ride"...

[J.R.OMEGA 2,684]

I'm def super excited for the video premier tomorrow and NFR in 9 days !!!. I'm also glad that I have friends in the UK since the UK exclusive cassette version of NFR was announced today and doesn't ship to the States (I know cuz I tried already). I per-ordered it today and I'm shipping it to my mate's house; he'll then mail it to me - Fucking winning . I've never per-ordered this many versions of a Lana album ever.

[Vanilla Icy 29,602]

don't be that way

don't you pretend

nfr isn't coming in 8 days

lanaboards is on fire

i do believe

this thread is coming to an end 

[Valerie 1,379]

didnt say she wasn't playing a character. just in the video she was a homeless prostitute 

 

But in the Ride monologue she literally says "when the people I used to know found out how I had been living they asked me why" which means that she/the character CHOSE to live a more vagabond lifestyle just like many people choose to do, so how is that an issue anyways
