These New Puritans // We Want War // Dir. Daniel Askill

         
very "Bill Viola" ... But i like it.
         
It's a bit repetitive, but I liked it as a whole. I'm glad I stuck with it.
         
bill viola alright
one more reason not to like it
         
Repetitive and slightly boring but yeh overall I kind of like it.
Its a shame its pretty much a direct rip from Bill Viola though.
In light of the whole Schofield fiasco maybe Bill should be notified.
         
i like the helmet. Fish bones or snake?
         
zzzzz...where's the cutdown?
         
anybody knows who made the mask?
         
mask = Jordan Askill
         
New Credits = Bill Viola concept video for These New Puritans by the Arse Skill Brothers.
Sponsored by Dior Homme.
         
Just like the Schofield saga, another direct rip off. Not to mention another Bill in the mix - Mr Henson.
         
Lighten up people, this sort of surreal acrobatic/elements stuff has been part of Askill's aesthetic since "We Have Decided Not to Die". Seems pretty organic to his style and it's not like Viola owns slow motion water. I liked this but not for 7 mins, the song is tops.
         
we have decided not to die was great, loved it to bits, 'reign' less so. viola doesnt own slo mo water, sure, but he owns

the song is good, indeed, but the video less so
         
The idea of the video is great for a 5min song; for a 7min one, it becomes boring
         
beauty can last. this is precious.
         
Oh there are way closer images to this of Bills than what you posted Legion. Some of Bills images look exactly like Askills video. Exactly.
It would have been ok if Askill had taken it somewhere but he didn't. It's just slow mo diving into water as if they are breaking into another dimension. It's all aesthetic. Precious alright. Very precious. Like a 10 year old princess's pony.

Beauty lasts as long as you keep applying the right moisturizer and get an annual facelift.
