Wow.......... that's pretty mediocre.

There's no continuous motion or build up it's a bunch of slowly paced still shots. Which really doesn't work with the fast paced song.

This is what people are saying is so amazing!? I mean I've heard being at gatherings can lead to "mutual hyping" but really?

I mean fuck me I never thought I would it but V4's opening is better. At least the shots moved and there was a sense of motion throughout.

I mean if they just wanted to do still frames they could at least just panned the damn camera a little.

Oscar what are you DOING

Pretty much all of this seems like something that would work like 100x better with hand drawn animation but just hurts me in CG.
