blackdoll 907 Posted January 29, 2014 For me its when the acting sucks, or there nothing to suck you in. i don't mean quality more like you click off the video because it felt like it was noting good to watch, or the moves where bad or didn't match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Champ213 1858 Posted January 29, 2014 Depends on what you mean by "not so good". XD There are a LOT of vk PVs that are just plain boring because the bands rely too much on their fancy outfits, so it's basically just the band standing in some location (forest/empty warehouse/white background/castle), performing the song. That can be nice to look at at times, but more often than not it's just very forgetful, unless you are a huge fan of that band. Then there are those PVs that are so bad that they are actually good, intentional or not. A famous example of non-intentional "so-crappy-it's-good" PVs is Vidoll's Occult Proposal. Cars driving in the background? = classic An example of intentional (parody-style) "so-crappy-it's good PVs" is NANDAKANDA by サウイフモ. But yeah, I consider both these videos highly entertaining. XD Sadly I cannot really contribute to the category of "Boring, forgetful PVs" - not because there aren't many of them, but because I... well, forget about them. 1 PsychoΔelica reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peace Heavy mk II 7200 Posted January 29, 2014 90% of all vkei music videos belong in this thread. They are literally nothing more than glamour shots and misplaced lip synching, mixed with blown out lighting and the same facial expressions used for the past 15~20 years. And that's what makes them all wonderful. Especially this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dfPL_e5HqE Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CAT5 9075 Posted January 29, 2014 Great song, poor PV: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rebelstrik 111 Posted January 29, 2014 agree that almost every vk pv is borring. a topic for pvs where there is something else than the band to see, is needed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
madygrain 515 Posted January 29, 2014 An example of intentional (parody-style) "so-crappy-it's good PVs" is NANDAKANDA by サウイフモ. But I thought every vk pv was deliberately like this.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Champ213 1858 Posted January 29, 2014 It would be awesome if more vk bands took the parodic approach, but I think quite a few take themselves rather serious in their PVs. XD Which can be funny in itself, I guess. Also, I do not want to start another "Old vk vs. new vk" debate, but I really love the cheesy cheapness of old vk PVs. While many new PVs still use the same motifs (band standing in some place looking pretty, deliberate overacting, wild gestures etc.) many of them are actually quite well-made from a technical perspective. Lighting, camera, post-production - all looks (semi)professional these days. But I just love the hopeless, amateurish yet try-hard crappiness of classic vk PVs. XD 2 PsychoΔelica and CAT5 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackdoll 907 Posted January 30, 2014 I think it has to do with the band and the song. like the dezert song you couldn't really act to that. i enjoy watching them work well the good ones at-lest cause its not you typical mv. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lichtlune 915 Posted January 30, 2014 this one is not too good until that smoke + bass solo bit which was actually really nice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOj4AsFR7mU Another bad one but great song! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lichtlune 915 Posted January 30, 2014 Still way better than this shit imo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeus 7997 Posted January 30, 2014 Pretty much all of them. You'd do better to pull out particularly good visual kei PVs. 1 Niku reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lichtlune 915 Posted January 30, 2014 Actually "Good Visual Kei Pvs" would be a better thread i agree. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seikun 317 Posted January 30, 2014 It all depends on you and your taste in music and PVs... I love low budget PVs like that of DERAIL. But I might find a similar PV horrible, too. It all depends. I never considered EREMIA's PV a not so good one. Although the woman in it couldn't be more expressive xD. I always paid attention to the vocalist's singing which is a bit similar to the way in which Sakito (Due'le quartz) used to sing. A fried of mine used to say they sing like that because they kind of hear a bit different than the rest of the human population or something lik that, but that is a topic for another thread. 1 blackdoll reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokage 5930 Posted January 30, 2014 Every single 'band plays in white void and nothing else happens' PV. 1 TheBistroButcher666 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Magatsu Posted January 30, 2014 All PV's without a nice story are boring, stupid and bad. (even from the artist who I love) It's so broing to watch the artist dancing at the same damn place and that nothing happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seikun 317 Posted February 3, 2014 Guren no yumiya In my opinion it deserved a better PV. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sai 868 Posted February 3, 2014 A famous example of non-intentional "so-crappy-it's-good" PVs is Vidoll's Occult Proposal. Cars driving in the background? = classic this is my favourite PV of all times. also this has to be the worst BT PV entertaining-wise and I know Jigsaw9 will at least agree with me here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2mA4WOjgqE This is just SO BORING. I mean the song is okay but the only thing that's happening in this PV is some vague shots of the lead singer while he's lying on the floor while the other members strut around a bit blurry in the background. That's literally all this video is. 1 Jigsaw9 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jigsaw9 6783 Posted February 3, 2014 ^ LMAO Buck-Tick takes the cake for me too... tho like half of the PVs in that collection are kinda, uhmm, 'interesting'. XDDD Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Champ213 1858 Posted February 3, 2014 WHO NEEDS STUFF HAPPENING WHEN YOU CAN LOOK AT SAKURAI-SAMA!? Seriously though, Buck-Tick's PVs are pretty hit and miss. Some are great and some are just "umm... okay?" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pretsy 1343 Posted February 3, 2014 In this case, current DEG pvs might fill out certain criteria for "umm...okay, why"-parts bastard child of Kisaki PVs and some tacky post-2005 European heavy metal (Century Media's work comes to my mind for some reason) MVs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amSjXtlRWpQ "umm...hey, we can take some leftovers off the original PV and paste you guys on them! Totally not out-of-place!" Songs are fine,but they deserved much better videos tbh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

violetchain 912 Posted September 1, 2015 The shuffle thread reminded me of this one: Himuro is dreamy and all, but I have no idea what the director of this video was trying to achieve by just randomly projecting video of him onto things for three minutes.
