ButterflyBones 2,241 Posted March 24, 2023 Uh, yeah.. After watching that a second time I'm feeling gaslit by all of the people saying this is such a great video, lol. Considering this is the first video since the Bakery, first major video since Cry Baby and the debut video for Portals, I expected her to have saved a much bigger budget. This CGI looked muddy, y'all. A lot of it was just goofy, too. That last shot of her popping out of the dirt and mole digging away from the grave? Omfg. The opening shot of the dirt pulling away from her clearly(poorly) CGI'd face? So bad. Those 2000s music video close ups of her making faces into the camera? Not it. I could go on but I don't see the point. Like.. I don't know what I was expecting, but after all the waiting and all the hype we've been riding on, this wasn't it. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BowOfLove 602 Posted March 24, 2023 Hopefully we'll get a void mv too. Hopefully it's not the cheap grainy video she posted on tt. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ImNoAngel 371 Posted March 24, 2023 all her budget is probably going to the movie. i wanted to see how cry baby died. the video is kind of confusing. but everything kind of is. we saw the creature hatching from an egg. in the single cover she is coming out of her in the water. and now she is coming out of a grave. i know i'm reading to much into it but what happened melanie? 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
missanthrophocene 1,672 Posted March 24, 2023 I liked the video but wanted something heavier/energetic for the beat drop parts, it felt so anticlimatic like idk add some flashinglights or different scenes merging into one another kinda like the movie Everything Everywhere All at Once to make it more melodramatic. The only part that gave me that feeling of climax was her being pushed back by the cord and breaking it and getting out of the grave and flying faster as she was finally free 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hope Melanie posts the writing dates of the tracks from Portals, like she did for After School. I think Womb is one of the oldest on the album… 3 Quote i want my blood to rush, i'm crushing for your touch Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anonymcomenter 4,675 Posted March 24, 2023 I think the video is fine… yall expected too much! By now we know Melanie works certain way (like in The Bakery) why so mad? I mean… is not that bad and even if it’s not avatar level CGI, for what it’s worth 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rabbit boi 269 Posted March 24, 2023 14 minutes ago, sadness is a butterfly said: Can someone explain the Sea of Blood/I’m Cumming/Womb thing? I’m unfamiliar there was a short snippet going around of melanie singing a song, noone knew what the songs name was and it was believed to be an afterschool snippet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dwF9YUpvVk everyone called it "sea of blood" as for "im cumming" that came from an insider who has unreleased mel tracks, they shared a list of real songs with their lengths but the titles were swapped to unofficial ones and "im cumming" was the one that ended up being "sea of blood" which later officially released as WOMB 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ultra Violet 19,043 Posted March 24, 2023 The video is amazing, funny and so weird. I applaud the fuck out of her for doing whatever she wants, whatever is meaningful to her, without caring about looking hot, or even looking "good". The closeups made me want to move my face further away from the screen and I actually loved it. I can't wait to see the world she's building and where it all goes, too. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
