    i get it, shes jerkin a cock
  • shortee4204real 1 year ago
    Well the rooster is an astrological year in which the woman in the film is born. A few qualities of the Rooster are pedantry, chic, cockiness, and humor. So she is jiggling like a rooster's throat and boasting like a cock. The bird is a rooster or a male hen. It has some fashion references which are provocative such as her waifiness and the jiggle of her fat along with what she is wearing. It really is meant to border the line of decency and reality so it's just shock art with an intense outlook. It's freaking genius.

    ladies and gentlemen i dont care what anyone says -- you have your winner

  • Really cool stuff. The part with the chicken flying through the air kind of reminded me of a certain Vitalic-video, but the rest was totally original and really cool. Inspired maybe? So very well suited to the song.

    Wow... I loved it. You guys are lucky to have the nameless chicken-girl as a friend --- if you win the Thunderheist contest, it'll be due to her. I hope we can look forward to seeing her in more videos in the future. (With or without chickens.)

    No Match for me.

    Beautiful shots, great atmopshere : fantastic music video.
  •  
  • June Bug 1 year ago
    right.... so obviously the meaning of this was lost on me, because I'm not seeing the true 'brilliance' everyone else is. The cinematography's great, and I can see a definite progression throughout the piece, don't get me wrong, but... it is a music video - perhaps a bit too out of the box???
  •  
  • Kingofpunk plus 1 year ago
    Brilliant great, awesome, great aesthetic, fantastic, great concept...
    I see nothing of that, I am only seeing ANIMAL TORTURE.
    I am sorry thatgo, I don't like it
  • B 9 1 year ago
    They had a chicken wrangler on the set to make sure the rooster wasn't harmed. Check out her comments on thunderheist.com/news.php?news_id=86

    I also asked a friend of mine (who has a few chickens) what she thought and she said it's not torture. Usually when you turn a chicken upside down, they just go limp. (Gravity-based blood circulation.)
  • Kingofpunk plus 1 year ago
    they still use an animal...and suspend somebody or an animal by the legs still torture to my opinion.
  •  
  • will a 1 year ago
    hey Kingofpunk, are you talking the animal torture in the video where it is being grabbed by its legs?, or after they finished, slit its throat, ripped the feathers off and deep fried it?
  • Kingofpunk plus 1 year ago
    Then you don't mind if I take you by the legs and I shake you, nothing personal, just to make a few videos.
    The video is really well done and got great image but I can't agree the use of animals, children or disable people ...

    Kingofpunk, Caleb was never shaken.

  • Wemby Time 1 year ago
    this is a nice video for the song, the slow motion provides a contrast to the song's aggressive beat

    but it does borrow conceptual ideas from Vitalic's video for Poney Part 1

    Awesome treatment for a music video. I like the simplicity of it. Damn good editing with a great dance track overlapping it. And it seemed like the girl had the right expression on her face on every frame. So good directing as well.
