insomniax Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I'm not really determined, my GF wants to wait til she's 18 anyway. I just want to be the first in my family to actually graduate. Oh ok, well maybe it's worth the wait. Good luck with your graduation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djrossstar Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 LOL. I was sad that my girlfriend didn't get casted (she is not a model but hot w/ a Green Day sleeve!) but after seeing this I am glad because I would have been jealous if everyone saw her naked!

Sanity Loan Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Will someone please upload the interview? GDA doesn't even have it yet. Maybe we don't have it because it's not out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyeyes Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 haven't seen the R version yet, but the PG version was much tamer than I thought it was going to be. Going for a meaning for the video...girls get turned on by Green Day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mar Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 My reaction to the video is a resounding "ehhhhhhhhh. ehh. That's it?" I would quite happily have watched just the band performing, without the girls. I just didn't get it. I do realise it's supposed to be 'sexual tension', but it was just incohisive - I think a lot more could have been done to promote the 'sexual tension' than just having a load of semi-naked girls lay around seductively staring into the camera. Just seems lazy, you know? And Tre. Just... it was just not classy. Boobs for the sake of boobs is stupid, especially when they could have done a lot more with the video. Seriously, it just seemed like Sam Bayer couldn't think of anything, and just said 'BOOBIES'. Oh, I love this comment so much. And I don't even care anymore if people think I'm some sort of prude (because I know that people are gonna accuse me of it), but I found that Tre scene and the one where Billie looks at the camera near the girl's legs suggesting a visit from Colonel Angus, to be just too much for me. No thank you, I didn't need to see that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather. Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I'll be sad if no one captured that interview and it's never replayed---it was a gem! Anything to hear Tre Cool says "Criss-cross Applesauce" again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zelda Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 It wasn't that bad, but they could have done a lot better. Can't wait for the R version. And I seriously hope that someone recorded the interview. I didn't get to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlissaGoesRAWR Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 So, I just watched the R-rated version, and I hate to say it... but I kind of like it better. Although I don't like how it portrays women by any means, I assume it's tame for an R-rated video, and it makes sense for what they're selling as a sexualized song. It gets more of a message across than the girls pointlessly just sitting around. I think the PG version is comparable to the edited version of Kill The DJ, which I wasn't a huge fan of. Although it's more appropriate, it's not nearly as good of a product in the end as the more offensive version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*withoutadoubt* Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Ok, while I didn't hate it, it definitely won't be my favorite all-time Green Day video. The R version was a bit more interesting, but it honestly made me physically cringe and laugh out loud a few times, lol. A close up of a nipple - come on, Sam! Really?! I don't have a problem with it, it just could have been done better, imo. Everything seems so forced. I honestly don't have a problem with the girls being there, nipples or not, lol. It was just a bit predictable and boring. But then again, how else were they supposed to represent all the 'sexual tension' without half-naked women? I guess it's also subjective - whatever turns you on, turns you on. I agree with Angeline; I expected it to me more creative, too, and chemistry was definitely lacking. "Self-conscious" is a great way to describe it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stylesmanifest Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 they should've done this at like a strip club or something. little more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imabout2break Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 the new vid is ok, and i think it looks more like 21 Guns. the video spent a lot of time capturing the girls than the trio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gloria123 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 i didn't think the video was so bad, but it had more potential... it just seemed like they were playing for a bunch of high end strippers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
