Nonoka Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 How can they shoot a video in 4 days from now if they don't even have a director? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Not4Pussies Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Maybe Guy O or the gardener are directing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat.Guy Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 And no concept whatsoever. What she's gonna do? Poll over her fiat at a fountain and sing in front of it while Guy O holds tha camera and Rocco splashs in the fountain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Not4Pussies Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Better yet, they'll shoot random people going on their days intertwined with Madonna lipsynching and dancing in a room in front of a white wall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 They most likely reached out to bunch of directors and are waiting to hear back from one who can fly in to film it on those days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phineaspoe Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 Let's consider this - which I understand is a very hard thing for a fan to do: Maybe it's for the best for Madonna to appear very little in this video. We tried putting her front and center TWICE now, and once with a good and perfectly timely song (Girl Gone Wild): the first time she appeared as a cute and quirky MILF, the second time she appeared as a complete youthful vixen C*NT. We ate it up - the world didn't. Or they will in 20 years, as usual - when it's too late. In any case. Now we're hoping to save the era, because it deserves it. And this time we have the best pop song on the record (POP in the sense that it has wide mass appeal) and once again we're gonna have her looking young and flawless and amazing? It seems that it won't work for "people" in 2012. And that's okay - it might work next year with another album. If she doesn't get fed up and retire from making records. Back to my original point - perhaps it's time to take Madonna out of the picture (quite literally) and let the song do the work. GMAYL and GGW were not musically nor lyrically interesting enough to stand on their own - the videos and Madge gave them gravitas, drama, life. People didn't pay attention to them - not enough to support it with their pockets, anyway. I think it's because Madonna is all over them: young people don't want to identify with an aging person, and older people (defeated and boring) can't connect to her youthful and punk persona. Again, WE love it - she's more alone and in a way more punk than ever before. But WE are clearly not enough. This time it can be different - the song tells a story and structurally it actually goes somewhere, despite what some lovely forum members say! Anyway, sorry for the rant. I just want this song to do really well - have loved it since I heard the demo. I really freaking hope next time (if there is a next time) she doesn't go this pop again. It's just not worth it.

elijah Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 A video with no Madonna would flop. The song is ok, but it aint anything amazing like Love Spent or I m Addicted thats why it clearly needs an amazing video... Madonna set in the 60ties with the look she had in the JML interlude driving in her 60ties car around Romes treasures... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonski43 Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I'm expecting another celebration. She likes cheap, short shoots and sick dancers to show she's down with the kids and can do all the work. I really hope I'm wrong but given the previous flops I can't see her investing too much in a third video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flip The Switch Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I'm glad the song is released as a single. I really love when she goes all freestyle dance on her videos (ROL, Celebration) so I wouldn't mind if she do this again with Akerlund, GI2M was dreadful and didn't catch the spirit of the song like Akerlund's fast-forward effects.

Mat.Guy Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I don't know if you are referring to my comment but I was not implying anything negative. MDNA doesn't need a song to save itself because it's already perfect. GI2M is one of my favorites videos. I love free-style Madonna, she's the best at it. My point is that she's already done that. And his naming don't change Madonna's plan in my opinion. Live Nation Italy said they were finding and setting up the locations among the archeological treasures of the ancient Rome, so to me, this means outdoor video. Cant' wait for the result. Nothing to do with charts and sales. I just hope it's not b&w because it doesn't fit the song vibe at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ai Papi Si. Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Tom Munro directed one mediocre video for Midge (Give It 2 Me - which I enjoy when I watch the remix), and one beyond amazing one (Die Another Day). Could go either way, but at least it's not Jonas Akerlund. I don't hate Jonas, but he doesn't seem to have the magic touch with music videos much anymore, maybe films are more up his alley now.

Guest Not4Pussies Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 not complaining about Tom Munro. if he is the director, I hope he is directing alone since GI2M and DADay (S&S) were codirected by Nathan Rissman aka The Gardener Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phineaspoe Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 I disagree. People didn't pay attention because outside her fanbase, nobody knew Madonna still existed released a new album + new songs. I find that hard to believe. GMAYL has over 40 million views on YouTube - and the SuperBowl, where she performed that song, was seen by hundreds of millions of people (including the youngsters that then saw it on YouTube - I believe between a previous video that was taken down and the one that's there now it's amassed close to 20m views). They eyeballs were there. The song was available two days before the big event. And it WAS bought. It's not like no one bought it. It was on Itunes Top 10 the first three or four weeks. GGW has also been seen millions of times. And now the tour. Surely that could've gotten her enough sustained attention and more opportunities... IF PEOPLE had even moderately supported the songs. Of course, it's more complex than this, and the promo theory has a lot of good merits - and I believe it could've made the record even more successful. But the truth is that ultimately it's all about people's perceptions. Absolutely everyone knows Madonna. Everyone has an opinion about her. And people buy things based on how they feel about them, not always on how good they are. This is why someone like Justin Beiber or the Jonas Brothers or Taylor Swift sell records in spades, why people are willing to pay $500 for an iPhone when they can barely make rent, etc. What's worse - I live in an area where everyone watched the SuperBowl and everyone watched Madonna. 80% of people didn't like the new song. Fans didn't either. And there's your promo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
