September 27, 20195 yr Beyonce moving erratically with a telephone, a dance in the diner, a car chase. Eh.
September 27, 20195 yr Author Still waiting for an answer of less bland music videos from the past 10 years. Call it overly long, or too wacky or not relating to the song but BLAND? Literally CHOKE ON A CAN OF COKE.
September 27, 20195 yr Waterbed by Chainsmokers, almost any by Coldplay, E.T, Dark Horse, Bon Appetit, Roar, John Wayne (ignore the music), Headlines, Me! (Ignore the music), Blank Space, etc.
September 27, 20195 yr Author Are you listing videos you prefer to Telephone? You have yet to name one less bland. I need you to expand on just that use of adjective. BLAND. B L A N D . Focus on that word alone and tell me how in the WORLD OF FLYING f***S TELEPHONE VIDEO IS BLAND.
September 27, 20195 yr There's a boring dance as the climax, a basic plot, and thwy try to hide this with some wacky layers over the top.
September 27, 20195 yr Author I don't care if I'm the forum moderator here or if I get banned from the site you will NOT GET AWAY WITH CALLING THE VIDEO BLAND. You have honestly truly confused me more than ANYTHING IN THE HISTORY OF THE SITE AND I HAVE SEEN A LOT HERE. Please explain HOW IT IS BLAND.
September 27, 20195 yr Headlines Omg Headlines (Spelling Out True Devotion) (If I Lost My Way) (Every Bell's Gonna Ring) (Giving Ha All to Ha) video really did t h a t - I agree!!! The blueprint from which Gaga shamelessly copied over and over again!

You have honestly truly confused me more than ANYTHING IN THE HISTORY OF THE SITE AND I HAVE SEEN A LOT HERE. Please explain HOW IT IS BLAND. Because it was a desperate attempt to recreate Thriller, but ends with a bland, boring dance! That's why.
September 27, 20195 yr Author 1. Recreate Thriller - HOW apart from the length is it trying to recreate Thriller? It has been influenced by it, the ways in which music video and cinema can be integrated to convery a story, and creating a blockbuster in the music video form so say that as opposed to RECREATE because by the DEFINITION OF THE WORD Telephone is not in any way a re-creation of that video. 2. Boring dance - I will take this and value that opinion, you find the dancing boring. The dance routines in the video happen between: 3.30 - 4.04, 6.40 - 6.55, 7.42 - 8.28.. That is a total of ~1 minute 27 seconds in a 9 minute video. About 16% of the video is a "bland dance". So now detail how the REMAINING 84% is bland PLEASE. This is fun.

SHIT GOT REAL WHEN BAL DOES HIS BEST JAY IMPERSONATION AND... BRINGS OUT THE STATS!!!! :heart: DRAG HA!
September 27, 20195 yr I only see it on buzzjack. The video is long, but that's it. It's not a classic. That comment was meant for Dandy* rather than Buzzjack as a whole. I dislike the song but the video itself is iconic and a genuine moment in pop-culture. It's campy and ridiculous — as a good Gaga video should be. Edited September 27, 20195 yr by blacksquare
September 27, 20195 yr Telephone the SONG and VIDEO are a masterclass in creating an overall pop moment - end thread - (Omg yes at Bal bringing the stats like that)

The entire conclusion is a dance! It comes across as super fake-looking as well. The prison bits are just :rolleyes: as well.
