"Gaga" for Tarantino
As someone who is a huge fan of both Lady Gaga and Quentin Tarantino, I was of course very interested when I heard that the video for "Telephone" was going to be shot by a director who is trying to pay hommage to Tarantino's style. Like any Gaga fanatic, I saw this right when it came out almost a month ago.

After watching this video several dozen times, I can conclude that its a really good mix of Tarantino's and Gaga's style, yet at the same time it leaves me somehow unsatisfied.

What do you think?

There aren't words to describe how vile and debased that was.
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

MORAL PANIC

Anyway, as a piece of performance art, I didn't think it was nearly as good as Bad Romance.

Dude, it's Lady Gaga and Quentin Tarantino.

I say again, Lady Gaga and Quentin Tarantino.

What did you honestly expect?  
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

You know, I just can't bring myself to care about Gaga and Tarantino hasn't been the same since Kill Bill. Inglorious Basterds was a disaster of a movie and everyone involved in it should have been kicked in the crotch.

like almost any good director he has his moments of brilliance and some really low points, spielburg and Lucas are the same

[07:57:32] <Caiaphas> inspired by HerraTohtori i built a supermaneuverable plane in ksp
[07:57:43] <Caiaphas> i just killed my pilots with a high-g maneuver
[07:58:19] <Caiaphas> apparently people can't take 20 gees for 5 continuous seconds
[08:00:11] <Caiaphas> the plane however performed admirably, and only crashed because it no longer had any guidance systems

He should have been kicked in the crotch twice for wasting his talent on this film.

I did like Landa but otherwise I agree, that movie was a sodden mess.

Geeze guys, there must be some sort of sale at the HLP Haterade stand.

Its true that the Telephone vid doesn't hold a candle to the Bad Romance vid, but remember the Bad Romance vid was 100% Gaga, and nothing out there can beat 100% Gaga so its understandable.

Although I didn't care much for the Kill Bill series, I really liked Inglorious Bastards. Not his best, but I thought it was quite solid. Death Proof, however, was probably the worst film I've ever seen, not gonna lie.

I do like the song Telephone, and quite frankly I believe every song on Monster is incredible. The Fame was alright and it caught my attention but I didn't really start adoring her style till Monster. She goes so much further beyond every other bland popstar out there. She manages to be constantly fresh and revolutionary while simultaneously leading the mainstream and I have an incredible respect for that.

I coulden't stand video phone. Beyonce never ceases to bore me to death. The only thing that made that song good was in the video where the guys in suits have cameras for heads. That was awesome.  :nod:

Lady Gaga is amazing and everyone who doesn't think so is just insecure in his masculinity. :P
