The society has become more accepting about Women's body and i respect that and am proud of it. We are just 2 different people with widely different opinions it seems I'm not a big fan of that one single scene. You are. Period Nobody is telling you what you should like or not but you are critizacing Britney for literally just showing her nipples and saying is pornography and I can give my opinion about it as well... you say that you are proud of society becoming more open about the women's body situation but for what I read it doesn't look like that. You are not a fan of the video? GREAT but don't try to convince me that this music video is **** and "try hard" just because you felt uncomfortable while watching it... that is your problen not Britney's problem. 1 Quote Link to post
Hypnotherapy 3,427 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 It’s hard to judge an unfinished product, but I can see why it ‘didn’t work’ now. The G-Eazy scene with him stimulating penetration is too much imo, it’s smutty. The storyline is bizarre. The death/mouth-to-mouth is almost like a piss take. The dancing is nothing special. HOWEVER I have watched this rough version more times in a day than the released MV ever. At least there is something to it. There’s grandeur, vision, the beginning of a storyline, controversy, effects etc. If Britney wasn’t comfortable then good on her for shutting it down and the BTS videos plus this leak does feel awkward, overly **** in a cheap way and it doesn’t fit the mood of the song. It is such a pity that they couldn’t have worked it out. Both the director calming down a little and Britney and him coming to an agreement of where the production should go. Honestly more input from Britney during the planning and concept stage could have avoided this. My issue is the product we did get was trash. MM video is something I’d expect from a Disney kid’s first video trying to break into the industry. Glory had a lot of potential and showed growth for Britney and she spoke about it passionately, but the video, the VMA performance, Vegas performance and other side promos like Carpool etc were so damn boring. As a visual performer her videos and performances are what stir up hype and the released version killed it. The views for a video released in 2016 are dire. It’s literally an album cover shoot that was turned into a video last minute. TL:DR The leaked version is messy af and I can see why Britney didn’t like it, but her and LaChappelle should have worked together to put out a product they could both stand by or invest time and money and go a different direction with someone else. What we did get is crap and is as much of a blot on her videography as BJ is on her discography. 3 Quote Link to post

I'm obsessed. Love the colors, the theme, the looks, it's fun, idk why people take it so seriously here. She's literally not doing anything she hasn't done before, what's so shocking? ****? the only reason why they don't look like that in toxic is because the uploaded version is kinda lq and the camera isn't that close to her. but I think the nudity in Womanizer and Criminal was much more "real" The G Eazy scene tho? Yeah I didn't need that image in my brain but okay we didn't need Jason's either and we lived anyways. It's a fun video that defines a lot of britney these last years (gaining confidence again, being close with her dancers, being playful and comic, while ****) it fits the song, again the colors are pleasing unlike the released one, I could go on. It's great, she should have released it(unless she didn't like it in that case I support her 100% but I don't see why she'd film something she doesn't like from the beginning) 4 Quote Link to post
falka 14,010 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 It could be great, I'm sad that it wasn't finished, but maybe there was good reason to cut it. She looked amazing and yet sad and pissed in few scenes , G-Eazy part was atrocious, did he played some music boss Wainstain type of persona? Quote Link to post

Im not criticizing Britney and never will. I'm her fan for a reason. Bottom line is that although I feel the video would have gotten the song and Glory the exposure it needed, and people would have definitely been talking about it. But would they be talking about it in a good way tho? Now it is just a few fans among the forum, but had it been released, the whole world would have their opinions. Remember how much backlash Miley got when Wrecking Ball was released? Countless parodies and people all around shaming her. I just don't want the same thing happening to Britney. Primeny experiences this and more but she is no more Primeney. It would have definitely tainted her reputation. It would just be another reason the haters can dwell on. Also the final verdict is that Britney herself didn't like it, she said so herself in the video with the bulldozer didn't she? I am proud of her for taking that matured decision. 2 Quote Link to post

Well, that's not the final verdict. She didn't like that particular scene, and that scene isn't in this rough cut (the dancers on top of the bulldozer) That the video "didn't work" could've been due to many reasons and we will never know: it could be that Britney liked it, but the record label didn't, or her dad, or the sponsors, or they wanted to cut some parts and David didn't agree. 2 Quote I am a performer.

I don't see her cringing at any moment, she's giving her best acting performance since Oops video. That face she's doing is her attempt at acting worried about the dead guy, and then she shows joy when he revives and kisses him again. I don't think she had any problem kissing a stranger, since she had done it many times before, including the most recent in 2013 for Perfume, and once again for the official MM video. Did those make you wanna vomit too? Also there was even a rumor she had something with the guy They def f**ked. He was a more handsome and younger kfed. He was also inside her house. 2 Quote Link to post

They're on set, they're at her house, they're in the red room and by the pool. I think their presence was supposed to be a symbolism for something: ***, sin, whatever, like decorative elements, but she just didn't like how it came out in the bulldozer scene. I think it just shows that she owns the gays. 1 Quote Link to post
Shadow2003 4,210 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 Alright, I see that quite a few people are still asking for the link to this. I've been told this by another user back when the thread was just starting (I think), and since I can't link it, I'll tell ya how to get it. Basically, type 'vimeo.com' in your browser, then two slashes and follow those up with this: '330152200'. This'll take you to a page where you can watch the full video with a 1080p option, decent sound quality (except for that little 'interlude' between the first chorus and second verse, A.K.A. the "Lion King" song, that one has abysmal quality). And, yeah... Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to post
diegofs 1,833 Posted April 14, 2019 Share Posted April 14, 2019 It's so funny how people are judging the video saying it's bad because of the editing Let's have some sense, that's only one of many versions of the video and has literally 0 post production Mostly of the music videos during that stage of the process look ****, but that one is still amazing Imagineeeee if it was finished 1 Quote Link to post

So it's official. She meets with the guys on the set of her videos and hang out (sam & that guy) , OR she finds someone and THAN make them be a part of her videos (Kevin & Jason) I'm thinking all that hot guys on her past videos, wondering what happened between them...

And I still wonder why they didn't add the Pink light scenes to the original video. It looks so beautiful They didn't add if because if you pay attention you'll see they're just repeated scenes in another color The official and the American dream version are fullllll of repeated scenes But at least in the American dream, randee changed the color and video side to make it look a new one That video is crap in all the ways possible Quote Link to post
