Let's Talk

[turps]

I thought we could get back into discussing Nsync and BSB's video's again. It was fun last we did it, and spawned the boyband forest of doom!

Doing this sort of logically, let's start with I Want You Back. The American version first.

My immediate thoughts, I love this video! It's got the Chris era that I adore, and I'll be honest. I spend a lot of time just watching him, but I'll drag my eyes away to look at the others.

It starts with the moody girl on her bike, then a high shot of Nsync, showing how fine they look from above. A shot of their name, because remember, this is an early video and we may not know who they are yet.

Lance's smile! JC smile! Joey smile! Chris' sm... oh wait. Not a smile as such. Chris is doing some demented arm movement, which Justin copies later which surely shouts Timbertrick! Yes, I know. My spot in hell is reserved for me.

Pretty boys! Pretty boys dancing on a wet cobbled street in front of a silvery back ground. OKay then! Pretty boys playing pool! They let JC drive? Then JoLa! Timbertrick basketball!

There's a part of the basketball scenes at 58 seconds and Justin does this smile, and Chris is laughing at him and oh my goodness I love them so much!

The flips!

So is JC stalking that girl? And if he is, surely it's better to do so without four other people in the car with him. Though I suppose he needs an audience for his fist clenching ANGST!

Oh wait, they're not in the car. What's JC done with them? Or is it suggesting that Lance and Joey are having fun on jet skies and Justin and Chris playing basket ball while poor JC angsts over his lost love? Some friends they are!

Chris close up! Give me a moment.

.....

Okay, I'm good. There's a lot of trickc shots in this. Chris is now dancing against JC's side, I approve of this. If your friend has lost the girl the best thing to do is distract him with your sexy self.

See, next shot they're all in the car and JC's happy. He's got good friends. Very good friends, if you know what I mean.

Justin's just threw water all over Chris. Bad Justin. Bad! I love you!

Hee, Justin's totally dancing in the back of the car. Needing some attention there, J?

The Chris stealing Justin's ball scene! A classic! His little face!

Wait, Justin's angsting now. Isn't that JC's girlfriend? Has there been a kinky threesome going on? Is Justin just pretending to be a big boy and copying JC's angst? Answers on a postcard please.

Wait, JC's staring right at Justin and saying that Justin's the one he needs. Wow, way to be subtle there. But who cares, because obviously this video is all about the JoLa and threemanbus \o/

YAY! 3.06 and Chris grabs JC in the background of the pool dancing scene.

So, what do you all think? Do you like the video? Is that JC's girlfriend? Or are they just stalking a random emo girl on a bike? Why the silvery thing on the wet street. How can Chris be so damn hot? Can the JoLa be more blatant?

In conclusion. I like this video, a lot.

the mylar screen of much rippling shiny goodness trumps near on everything there.

It does. It's just so random, and the cobbles really do look dangerous with their ankle twisting ways. But, I suppose it's all about the look. However weird that is.

I think you're right about the video setting up their personalties. Though knowing JC it's amusing that he gets the day in his corduroy jacket role. Hmmm, you know, Joey doesn't seem to have a role, unless it's the fun loving guy. He seems to spend most of the video flying around on a jet ski looking hot.

It was mentioned down the thread that JC always drives, and I don't get it either. Unless the thought of putting Chris behind the wheel caused the offical dudes to break out in a cold sweat.

You don't like the song! For shame! *g*

They're babies!

The thought of putting Chris behind the wheel makes me break out in a cold sweat! :-)

I don't know. It would be an interesting experience if nothing else ;)
