Well, actually, they look kind of silly, but SM THERE HAD BETTER FUCKING BE THOSE MOTORCYCLES IN THE PV. I DON'T WANT NO MISSING TAXI H!P FORMULA BULLSHIT THIS TIME.

I'm just afraid that like the car on the Mr. Taxi cover, this is as good as it's gonna get. I haven't watched the concert fancams yet, so I don't even know if Bad Girl's dance is any good for biking swagga.

Dude, I don't even want a Korean comeback at this point.

Ahahahaha, we already designed jackets back then, but tattoos are even better.

Watch it and tell me what you think. I haven't been too impressed by the choreo, but I'm curious as to what they'll do with the PV, since it's different styling than what they've been performing Bad Girl in.

[geopsuey]

The only part of the choreo I really like is the second chorus, which links to the bridge, because it's considerably less silly than the first and third chorus...

but the only thing that's really on my mind is... are they really going to let Yuri wear that? ;~;

[just_keep_on]

I've never been able to watch the whole thing. I just get bored with it ...

are they really going to let Yuri wear that? ;~;
XD Ah, man, this is going to be the second PV I'll be facepalming at Yuri. The first was that slow-mo sequence in Mr. Taxi, the second is this. Though, it'll be worse in this PV 'cause I'll end up not being able to take her seriously at all if she's in that outfit for the whole thing xP

SM just loves to go overboard with their styling. The "futuristic" thing they did for the RDR comeback, the whole range of craziness for Hoot (cowboy outfits?!) and also their concerts ... But then they also are oddly simplistic/unfinished - i.e. some of the cheerleading costumes for Oh! (and even the styling for Super Junior's latest stage).

[arbitrary_greay]

Not being able to watch the whole thing due to boredom sounds about right. Their locking entrance was pretty fucking epic, but Bad Girl as a song was only good during the chorus, which the choreography fucked up by not making flowy/robot choreo there. The rest of it is just...4minute-ish. DNW

It kind of says something that when it's all said and done, I just wanted to go watch Himawari Hoshizuku and Shuumatsu Not Yet's dances instead. Oh yeah, and Arashi's Lucky Man. Mmmmm, locking.
And then I had to hunt down U-min popping goodness.

Remember all of the mocking we did for Hooker!Shidae when the Oh! MV first came out? Looks like Yuri's boobie parasite shed its foofy larval form and moved on to her brain.
At least it's not a giant headbow?

[just_keep_on]

4minute, ah, actually, that's a pretty good description xP (I was pretty disappointed at that whole special stage Cube put up - it looked all sorts of messy.)

Maybe we can get RDR!SNSD vs Biker!SNSD. (Oh noes, now I'm imagining all the different SNSD concepts meeting at some kind of AA group ...)

LOL, you mean like A Pink? XD

[arbitrary_greay]

I got into SNSD for their technique, not their posturing.

Biker!SNSD wins already for the fact that they have motorcycles and David Caruso!Yoona on their side. Besides, RDR!SNSD was deleted by Oh!Yuri.

Plus, for all of my complaining about the Bad Girl choreo, just that locking entrance alone makes it a better dance than RDR already.

Like the headbow Sooyoung wore for her birthday radio bora. XD

The camera action in the first link really left me wondering what the heck was going on. I think the camera work was trying to make the choreo exciting, but just left me kind of confused. I do know I kept thinking: I really wish SNSD would get some dynamic transitions in their choreo. There are a lot of big movements, but it doesn't look that difficult.

Second link fancam: Wow. That opening looks messy. And is that SeoHyun on the far right? Because girl looks really into it. She is unf-ing it up! OMG, THE MANPOWER!!! AHAHAHAHAHA. Huh. I can relate to being bored by this. But I don't know why I'm bored with it. LIke it looks very high energy. So I should totally be bouncing. Maybe it's because I have it on mute. SeoHyun is totally into this performance! LOL, hip thrusting conga line. Is this the new signature SNSD move?

Huh. Just because, I went to check Rino's credits. She apparently wasn't assigned this song.

[arbitrary_greay]

I had to laugh at Taeyeon being this tiny thing flanked by the tall girls flailing around with high energy. And then I felt bad.

Ahahahahaha the hip thrusts are even sillier than The Manpower.
SNSD conga line is awesome.

Tangent: Heh, Hyosic cockblocking Yuri

[just_keep_on]

... Who the heck choreographed this then o_o? Lately it's been Rino or Jaewon, no? But it doesn't seem like Jaewon at all ...

[greywing]

That was my exact thought: Who did this?

[arbitrary_greay]

Probably someone in Japan, considering all of the formation work.

[just_keep_on]

Wait, we didn't hear anything about who choreographed Great Escape either, huh? Think it was the same person?

(Btw, I'm assuming your summer thing is done?)

[arbitrary_greay]

Neither Rino nor Jaewon are much into the locking, whereas Jpop dancing is locktastic, so Bad Girl was most likely done by someone under UMJ or smth. I don't even remember enough of The Great Escape's specific moves to say whether it was more Jpop or Kpop-ish beyond the formation work.

[just_keep_on]

There's some locking in Great Escape but not as much as Bad Girl, I think. TGE's choreo could pass as K-pop I guess? Idk...

[askbask]

I want a Korean comeback, but not if SM fail completely.

Bad Girl's choreo seems a bit messy. Loved the thing they went for with Great Escape, though, tough choreography but some free-form parts and mayhem. Gave the girls opportunities for some swagger. If they tidied up BG maybe they could achieve the same thing.
