It's not really to do with Gaga at all. She was just a good example of somebody who misuses film as a medium by filling the filmic time with a horribly pretentious void. Madonnas videos appeal to me because they work as a perfect synergy with the song. They speak to each other so harmoniously that they become one. Don't get me wrong, I could watch hundreds of hours of Madonna footage because I find her super fascinating. Plus I've imagined her playing the role of a hurt woman expressing her disdain for the world around her in a grimy setting for a long time. The character she played in WIFLFAG could have been given a feature length treatment and she doesn't even speak a word in the video! Express yourself, Vogue, Bad girl, Deeper and Deeper, Bedtime story, WIFLFAG, Justify my love and all of her character driven and filmic promos have been quick and to the point. A particular message hammered home with great imagery and lots to think about. I'm not suggesting that an 8 minute video with a few bits of speech etc would be terrible or that Madonna shouldn't do it. I'm just not understanding the NEED for it. I'd love to see her exploring her darker side, because I think she would play a great psychopath or murderer. People don't react to her in roles where she's meant to appear relatable and easy.
I agree, there doesn't NEED to be a long video for it. In fact, I think most would be happy with just ANY video for it (as evidenced by this Facebook situation). BUUUT, if ever there was a Madonna song that called for a short film (directed by Tarantino no less), Gang Bang would definitely be that song. In fact, I would imagine they'd need a few minutes to develop a quick story before introducing the song, or else the video might become a rushed mess. At least, in my opinion.

Madonna is not Lady Gaga. Whatever you think of Gaga's videos is irrelevant, because Madonna is a different artist with a distinctive perspective that knows exactly what she would want to do. Don't you agree? If it goes into ten or fifteen minutes, would you complain? I doubt it. It doesn't need to be more than the length of the song, but if it went on longer, I'm POSITIVE Madonna (and Quentin) would be the perfect pair to make it work. This REALLY isn't a taste thing.

Quality, not quantity.
If in quantity, it's still quality, why complain?

^ yes Hipsta!! Let's get on that! Meanwhile apparently Monte Pittman supports my page too!!
I've tweeted to both and will keep on it for the rest of the day.

Welllll, another place to Tweet it to would be the Material Girl Collection account and Hard Candy Music blog. I can see them supporting it!
ANNND, this was posted on Facebook by Kill Bill.
Want to wish him a killer 49th? Follow Miramax and tweet your favorite Quentin Tarantino movie quote with the hashtag #HappyBirthdayQuentinSo maaaaybe, if he was spammed with requests, somehow word would reach Tarantino himself?

Exactly. And it'd be pretty fucking hard to pull off a surprise performace without it being given away at some point. It's 2012 ppl, not 1998 when MAYBE she would have been able to keep it a secret
Well to be fair, they kept information about her appearance secret until her camp decided to inform anyone so it couldn't be that hard.
But whatever, it's not a big deal anyway. Promo's for suckas.
By the way, I don't care about these appearances for promo, I care just cuz I love seeing the bitch breath.
-
It's MDMA but we've all seen both.
Wow, Madonna is more hip in drug culture than me.
I'm not gonna lie, today has been kinda disappointing. A three hour interview cut to half an hour, which seemed to be for a surprise performance that didn't happen and resulted in a five minute long stay onstage. But oh well...
-
If Avicii is next, I doubt Madonna is performing, at least until after that (if she is at all).
-
Why was Gang Bang renamed to that? She only says BANG BANG on the song #thingstoponder
Because she has a weird sense of humor and wanted to be cheeky? I can see that being the reason.

You realize dancerbabe is two hit wonder extraordinaire, R&B songstress Mya.
No, but after educating myself on YouTube, I learned she contributed the soundtrack of my childhood.

You know, this song is great, but it's no favorite of mine. That said, I ALWAYS find this song stuck in my head. ESPECIALLY the bridge. It's made me pay much more attention to it than I would've otherwise.
