I've watched the music video for these songs by Gorillaz, and it was definitely a good use of my time. The video is hand animated, and it's beautiful. They always do a good job, but there's just something special about the amount of time, detail, and dedication it takes to animate something by hand. Although some of the things I question why they took the time to animate them. Mainly, why did Murdoc have sex with a snake?? I know he's a horny freak and stuff, but that's just a new level of weird. TvT Also, the music video starts out with a young Noodle playing around in the jungle. Why is the dragon encased in stone? Was it cursed to be that way? A backstory to that detail would be nice. Also, when Noodle swims in the river, she goes in as a young girl and leaves as a grown woman. Was she really swimming that long, or was there something up with the water? Or, I suppose it could be used to show a passage of time. But why be logical? Also, it's a bit unclear who the Sad God is. Perhaps it is the being that appears near the end? I suppose that would make sense, but it didn't seem especially sad or ethereal. Throughout the video, I noticed many references to the Jungle Book, and I thought that was a nice touch. Like little Easter eggs. Oh, another question: Why did the shopkeeper end up the way he did? He's first seen trying to sell/scam 2D with snake oil, and then a bit later he's becoming one with the earth and having vines growing all over him. What's up with that?? Overall, though, I really enjoyed the music video, and I highly recommend it. I would also appreciate it if someone who knows the answers to any of my questions could answer them for me
Have a lovely day, though, frens. Stay alive, and continue to have crazy ideas. Sanity is boring, anyway.
