I can't wait for a HQ version of Don't look back! :heart

MissElin_ 1st April 2010 02:36 PM

Sweet!
I'm just amazed over how well made this album is! All the PVs are so great and they really made a thought into everyone of them. Even Lady Dynamite that mostly just is party party. :D

Now, a HQ of Dlb will be simply great! Can't wait!

However, the message in Japanese says "Including today, there is no plan to broadcast this video on any video clip shows in the next 3 days."

i don't know whether someone here has mentioned it, but i find that the ending of SLT (smashing guitar) is not coherent with the beginning of Microphone.

the guitarist/bass standing at the left side of the screen doesn't raise his hands in Microphone, while he did in SLT.

and regarding the bleeding contact box, somehow it relates me to sex, u know, when girl experiences it the first time, she will bleed :tredface

JackieRos 1st April 2010 04:08 PM

^oh my O.o

anyways can't wait for hq don't look back

Lady Dynamite is teh sex. I'm seriously crushing on it right now. I don't know why people say it's the weakest out of the bunch we've seen. She's just...at a club, having fun. Awesome.

I gotta say I love all the pvs so far, my favorite being Microphone and least fave Sexy little things.

I do think it's the weakest of the bunch - doesn't appear to be alot of thought, planning, poetry, etc. behind it (although the art direction of the lollipop part is fantastic). That said, it IS a fun video, and I enjoyed it much more than most of her "fun" videos like "BLUE BIRD". (Maybe cuz I'm more of the gay club type and not so much the beach type? To each his own. :P)

The other three are definitely stronger as far as message, art direction, cinematography, production design, costumes and sets... Lady Dynamite felt more thrown together, the other three felt much more deliberate. You answered your own question when you said "She's just...at a club, having fun"... I personally don't like it as much when things seem that tossed together, I prefer watching things that took work and talent to create. Maybe it's cuz my whole family is really into film though... :P

I think that some posts that had "Lady Dynamite is the worst" might have been giving the wrong message.

Saying about something that it's worst/the worse it's like saying "the other PVs were bad but Lady Dynamite is the worst of them."

If the people who said in the worst liked the other PVs than maybe it should be rephrased to "I didn't like Lady Dynamite PV, it's my least favorite or I liked the other 3 more/way more".

Delirium-Zer0 1st April 2010 06:54 PM

Yeah... I mean I agree that Lady Dynamite is the weakest of the four, but it's certainly not awful at all - some parts are really fantastic, and Ayu looks like she had a blast filming it. I feel happy watching it.

But yeah the other three are really JUST SO AMAZING (I've been telling everyone, and I genuinely believe, that DLB is the best PV Ayu has EVER DONE EVER, and it's one of the best jpop videos I think I've ever seen, if not the best), that Lady Dynamite, even as above-average as it is, REALLY pales in comparison. It actually looks strange next to the veritable artistic majesty of the other three.

Her disgusting facial expressions with the huge-ass mouth/teeth/lip baring in the first couple of minutes. That face is SO Kazuyoshi Shimomura, it's not even funny. I hate him with a burning passion and I wish for him to disappear from Ayu's filmography and photographer FOREVER.

Tom Punks 1st April 2010 08:50 PM

Lady Dynamite works for what it is. I think it could have been better if it wasn't like... Ayu outside -> Ayu in the club -> Lollipop Ayu -> Locker room Ayu. Shimoko loves to do that whole thing where a PV is cut up into like 5 different parts and nothing is mixed together... which I really don't like. :/ But I wouldn't say it's a bad PV at all, especially considering who directed it. It's just not deep or meaningful obviously. XD

Well, she did that in Rule/(don't)Leave me alone/Microphone and those weren't directed by him. It's just ayu's usual fierce/angry face, she does it a lot in live performances too lol, I'm used to it and it doesn't really bug me much unless she does it in photo shoots where it looks weirder combined with all the photoshop.

1. see ayu dancing on a pole
2. shuya kiss a drag queen
there perfect pv

the video is ok I would watch more than once
my favorite part was when she was dancing and saying oooh aaah
ayu with that lollipop saved the pv

ayu looked like she was having fun and that's all that matters

bluegie 1st April 2010 09:17 PM

I haven't seen the video yet, but I can see waterballoon's point. Yes she had fierce/angry face in Rule/(d)Lme/etc, but she did not exaggerate her expression in those pv. Anything kazu did must require exaggeration. Her exaggerated acting in GREEN, her exaggerated poses/faces in Sparkle (I never expect an excellent song with such a disgusting pv). I really hope LD will be the last pv directed by kazu. Based on the comments from you guys/gals I think I will just treat the pv as a party styled video.

And it's even worse when looking at any making off when kazu's inside. His exaggeration is like 10x of what ayu did in pvs.

This. I wish I could or have GIFs, but this moment in her disgusting-face scene in the PV, her teeth were bared so horribly huge it looks larger than Kuu's mouth/lips/teeth on the 3 SPLASH CD+DVD cover!

GREEN, Mirrorcle World and Sparkle has had Ayu in her ugliest moments imo as well... GREEN wasn't that bad but the other 2 were horrendous... it's like... I feel so indignant when a beautiful woman gets literally ruined and stripped of her beauty and elegance by some... "photographer" turned useless and amateur director!

Once again, wish I could make or have GIFs...

"SUGOI!!! *clap clap*"

... oh God that was epic in a bad way :no
