[DISC] Were Red Velvet trying to kill eachother in their new MV?

[sillysone]

 

What with all the pushing lockers, pianos etc on eachother

 

 

Or is there hidden meaning behind it I'm not getting because dumb dumb dumb?

 

 

That shot of Irene in a swimsuit from behind tho 

 

Their new song is pretty catchy too

 

 

But don't kill eachother girls, ok

 

That's all, discuss now

 

[Serenee]

I liked the Tom and Jerry concept too.

[peppermint]

I honestly don't really get the storyline... maybe they're just pranking each other like T&J? 

[Envied]

That's how I took it.

[HATEmeCUZyouAINTme]

I loved it! It was hilarious 

 

That shot of Irene in a swimsuit from behind tho  

I agree

[---]

[Ddeona Oneul Bame]

I was wondering the same thing, LMAO~

[Tez]

They were trying to be rats, wasn't it obvious?

[fleur-noire.]

Well they said on VAPP that the song was about all of them liking the same guy (I think) so I'm guessing so lol.

Itchy and Scratchy from the Simpsons.

[UNNIE]

Their trying to kill each other to get solo attention of their crush. 

[sillysone]

I agree

 

Awesome sig 

[wonumon]

Pretty sure the MV is supposed to be Tom and Jerry themed and it also fits the song title.

That looks like a fun prank lol jk

Their trying to kill each other to get solo attention of their crush. 

oh is that it?

[notimeforspaces]

I mean its "Russian Roulette", ya know, where you take your chances with a gun to see if you get the bullet in your head

[Akai Berubetto]

i think the MV is creepy. I don't find it cute. The part where Joy is happily throwing the tennis ball on to Irene's head is quite scary

[John Lemon]

It's all just a prank bro

[Scuttlebutters]

Very Tom & Jerry ish. I'm pretty sure there's gotta be some kind of symbolism in there.

[noon]

i saw it like this:

 

in the lyrics they talk about playing a game, which would be cute, but they are playing russian roulette, which though is metaphorical in this context, still involves a dangerous risk. but despite the stakes, it's still played like a game and the subject of rv's love game is not taking it seriously though they both know there is possibility for real consequences.

 

this is paralleled in the mv where we see rv. at first it looks like they are just pranking but then the actions escalate to what can be violence. the consequences of this violence is shown through the tom and jerry-esque lenses which "softens the blow". but despite the fact that it's just a cartoon, those are depictions of violence, which when put into the right context change meaning.

 

basically love is a dangerous game that is being treated more like a game in the same way tom + jerry show cartoon violence, yet there is more emphasis on it being a cartoon.

 

does that make sense? at least that's how i see it.

[Burkhardt]

if it wasn't clear, it got obvious when they pushed Wendy's bed in front of that car

Are you calling me dumb Carla-chan

 

[123456]

 

I was screaming 'WTF NOOOO' at this scene! 

[swiftswitchsurf]

Song's name is russian roulette

They show black and white version of Itchy & Scratchy (Simpsons parody of Tom & Jerry who specifically go out of their way to kill each other.)

In the video the girls do the following things to each other:

1. Setting a sweater on Fire

2. Pushing off diving board into empty pool

3. Putting nails and screws in cereal to eat

4. Pushed a sleeping person into speeding traffic

5. Rube goldberg machine to crush with a fridge

6. flattening a person with a piano downstairs

7. Crushing with lockers.

8. Just shoot the bitch

 

 

Nah, don't think they're trying to kill each other.
