Watched half speed for gif-ops. Here is Sunny being Sunny.

And I definitely wouldn't say Yuri is "meaty" anymore but she still has the Yuri-factor.

Nice Genie-choreo touch with the hand around the back.

lol.

Sooyoung's bus-driving move is wonky as hell.

But this MV does mark a turning point. She has never looked this good.
Watch any episode of Hello Baby where she has short hair. That is Sooyoung at her best. And this is from someone who thinks she is easily the hottest girl in the group.

Though the thread has 'SNSD' in it, it isn't just about them. And even people who are crazy fanboys would agree the song and video are both nowhere near their best. This is what a great song and MV are like.

Oh my god this so silly... I like Girl's Day a lot but that is one of the most annoying tee-hee-videos in k-pop. I watch performances to avoid watching this MV.

The Mr Taxi video is unimaginative as hell, but the dance routine is amazing, I think it could make a run for being their 2nd or 3rd most SHARP routine behind ITNW. For that reason alone the video owns.

There was so much smoking hotness in Hello Baby. As an adult, Kyungsan will look back on those times with longing and regret.

Mr Taxi in 720 fucking p
So gooooood. The whole Tron-like bit is still weird though.. they have different coloured accents and everything on their black outfits but they don't seem to serve any other visual purpose.. the lighting is so bright to begin with! But I'm just being nit-picky. Woulda been cool to see them light up. Agreed on the dancing though.

The Jiyoung hand is partially out of frame, and I'm sure there's a good explanation for Goo-Hara's hand.

Not that it would bother me too much, in either case.

Her ring finger is blocking the line of sight to her pinkie, thought that was obvious :p

On a different note, to my first post in here someone replied that I should not bother trying to pick a favourite member. At no point have I actively tried to figure out who my favourite member is though.
However after viewing the various pictures/videoes after I've started browsing this topic, I've come to the conclusion that Sunny is definitely my favourite members, she's freaking awesome and probably have the best/most unique smile I've ever seen in my life.

Not totally unique, as I uncovered in my groundbreaking discovery / research into Swedish kids' entertainment

Even this 'move':

i feel that its within my gaf rights to enter this thread and offer my opinion. you all enjoy asian girls with robotic behavior wrestling eachother in sand, pointing at you and grinning. i accept that this is a form of entertainment.

i just think it's for men with twisted sexual tendencies. just my opinion. carry on, you beasts.

thats a huge existential question that applies to everything ever posted on gaf.

not really. for example, we care about what other fans post in here. what nobody cares about, is your negative opinion in a fanboy/fangirl thread. just giving my 2 cents before i put you on ignore.

If AKP promptly show performances from this year's KMF, my envy might just be tempered a bit, Ash.

That's what you think...but its just not the same. Otherwise, theres really no difference between KMF and Music Bank =P

Sorry that our interests are not exclusively American. You really hit the nail on the head. Surely it is proof that we are a bunch of sick freaks. I mean, we could watch people wrestling in the dirt on Survivor but, dear lord, this is on a KOREAN program! What else could it possibly mean but that we are actively fantasizing about living out every single sordid perversion that can be found in the entire Asian porn industry? Because that is the only reason Westerners would ever give a second glance to anything in Asia. We're like wild beasts, completely undiscerning of all that is proper, ready to indiscriminately mount any god-forsaken piece of flesh that would cross our paths. That's the only way anyone could end up spending more than a single minute looking at these girls rather than the unmatched beauties on MTV.

if you thought for a second that i was throwing some kind of support behind the robotic, silly, vapid, and uncreative industry that is american-girl-pop, you were mistaken. if you get off on that shit, good for you. if you get off on the korean version of that, good for you. i'm so glad that i'm not you.

Right on, man. So glad to hear that you're above it, on some higher plane where only "real" people are given an ounce of respect. You're obviously way too developed as a human being for my media-bleached mind to comprehend but I can tell by your broadcasted self-assurance that you know the true meanings of life and value. I mean hell, I'm still falling for that capitalization bullshit they taught me in school. I'm going to keep posting here for now, but thanks for stopping by to give me a glimpse of what it means to truly be alive. Maybe one day the vision of yourself that you have bestowed upon us will lead me to escape all this and achieve the same misanthropic detachment and delusions of superiority. I'm pretty happy now, but I'm sure it's a lot better being as sad and disappointed as you.

Why don't you go ahead and make a topic for music you like then, instead of stinking up this topic.
