Okay, when the wheelchair dancing starts there are light beams moving around. From what I can tell, the dog is shooting them from its eyes and johnny catches them with elbows and hands until he misses and slaps his head into bits. What else is there to say, I enjoyed it. |

i watched it earlier today on my mates computer, i have moved into his for a few days and i thought it was really cheesy and generally not very good apart from the face against glass part at the end. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
IMO it sucked too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah... that dancing around was pretty fucking stupid. I can't believe they were trying to pass it off as a short film, where it was about as much of a short film as windowlicker or come to daddy. |
||||||||

How very true. |

Everything before the cocaine scene is superflous, in my opinion. Everythign after that was complete gold, and the face going against the camera, completely amazing. I had to keep rewinding just to watch that bit. It's cool Chris Cunningham is still doing stuff, but everything he does isn't complete gold. I still quite like this, but the book of art was a dissapointment. |
||||||||

I don`t get the "shooting" part. What`s going on? Cunningham-wars? The more I think about RJ, the more I find it a waste of time (and money). |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
yeah just bought and watched it,its pretty good,parts of the track sound like an old nitro deluxe tune speeded up can anyone enlight on this or did i drink to much last nite |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the book smells like shit too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
whats the music like? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its like a small river running west along a village of about 34 people singing around one man on the drums on a loverly summer morning |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

nice insight. What's your opinion on the film? |
||||||||
|
|

go cry to your mom |

|
it's an ok vid, but 6 minutes? what is that? ahh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I know it's hard to speak about it as your mouth is full of RDJ's cock. It's a fun 6 minutes. Warp are at fault calling this a film. It's a bit of fun but expensive for what you get. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they played it at that festival aswell..fascists seemed to have liked it so i suppose it's fun for a lot of people. im not sorry i bought it, but they could have put something else on that dvd..anything would do..a robbie williams vid..something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, and my mouth ain't full for no reason :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm not judging you! It's great you enjoy music soo much! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only wish i lived in manchester between 1980 and 1990..nowdays it's quite hard to find something exciting..at least overhere..ahh |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
6 minutes is a sad fucking expensive joke as it was the 26 mixes fo cash considering half of it was edited and from mp3s fucking not funny jokes |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
infact i would have paid much more for those 6 minutes if i had to, it's not about the money at all..it's just that i'd expect something longer since it took him that long to make/put out. as for 26 mixes - it's afx, man!! about time you show some appreciation!! he's a god!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
he is great, and my fav probably... but if he makes a compilation of mixes at least he could have worried about giving us some good quality recordings... and not those shitty sounding mp3s evenso I play it a lot... and snjoy it... but still... I feel cheated...it could have been done alot better |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
see, that's your problem. i never play those mixes so i can't notice the shit quality. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think part of the problem is that the hype surrounding a lot of the warp artists in particular is killing the releases because people are expecting too much for too long it leads to disappointment on relese. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's partly true..i don't think i'd appreciate 6 minutes dvd no matter who's was it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my dissapointment with 26 mixes is not based on a long wait... at that time I had been knowing aphex music for just 1 year... so I was still discovering the rest of his back catalogue at that time... my disssapointment was based on the bad quality of the sound of all the tracks... and I am sure the masters are somewhere and they shall be good or better quality so it makes me thing that they didnt loose much time in doing such compilation... which is a shame |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
a lot of earlier electronic music is poorer quality. especially in the days of early computer remixing (which isn't that old) tolstoyed i agree that the 6 minute dvd would be a disappointment to people and that warp basically lied calling what is little more than a glorified music video a short film. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well I like that "xtal" and "tha" have that shitty quality cos I know they were recorded from cassette tape... and its part of the leyend and all... but in the case of thos emixes I dont think that is the case,.... probably its simply that they didnt bother to search for the person who had the masters or simply that they wanted to punish us all of using p2p |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hmmm. I kind of felt embarrased watching the video. All those dancing scenes really threw me off. Especially the ones from the forward facing view... I liked the beginning where the father was talking to him... and his eyes were doing that creepy shit. If they had kept it like that, I would have loved it. Slow and creepy... just ambient stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it is 100x better than any other video that has come out this year. i like it a lot |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you obviously haven't seen the new robbie williams vid yet then! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

haha, some chick was real impressed with the photos last night..not that she had any idea about what it was, nor does she know any music.. |
||||||||

I liked it. Found it pretty amusing. And, when you consider the painstaking way it was shot and edited it's not surprising that it took that long to produce six minutes. Besides, between 5 and 15 minutes is very common for shorts. As I understand it, Cunningham was working on Rubber Johnny in between writing his feature length script for WarpFilms and another short/music vid rumoured to feature Squarepusher's music - due out later this year. Yes the hype surrounding Rubber Johnny was ridiculous, but people should try and avoid succumbing to the hype-machine. Early electronica releases by Warp and other labels and early audio-visuals projects blew people away because no one was expecting anything. No one knew the latent potential that was there. These days everyone awaits new albums/films/AV material as though it's the second coming. Audiences are far more sophisticated, yes - but they're also more impatient, and less willing to suspend their disbelief, take the material at face value and marvel at the craftsmanship that has gone into making it. |

|
|
isn't it annoying to see Warp feeding this hype, though? almost trying to instigate it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
rubber johnny just seems really throw-away and forgettable imo. a short series of films based on say, 4/5 tracks from Druqks would appear more worthy of the effort and money invested into rj which to me feels so self-indulgent. |
||||||||

Look at all this negativity. Am I the only one who was happy with it? It was well crafted visuals against nicely cut sound. And, honestly, it wasn't that expensive. The book was pretty good and a damn sight more than you get with most packages. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its awesome,watched it around 20 times-the only thing better than that vid is sex,and maybe beer,and prob kebabs,but thats it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah well if we're making cross species comparisons, I'm not sure I'd put it ahead of a lifetimes supply of Irn Bru or so much chocolate that it'd kill you either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok,what about sex then. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..don't mention sexque to xceque! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was happy with it too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I can't remember. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
