I searched this for this topic under "my chemical romance" "ghost of you" "ghost" "music video" "illegal" and "leaked" and nothing came out so don't have a cow. Ok?

Okay all you mcr fans.

Have you heard about it?

MCR made the video for "Ghost of You" due to air in september.
However it was leaked.

The band has requested that no one view it, but kids will be kids. Right?

I haven't seen it, can't seem to find it.

The video is supposed to be their best ever. Very cinematic, you think it was a trailer to a new war movie. a fellow dotcom'er said, "its very said, very emo"

Since it was leaked it's probably going to be a little different.

Have you seen it?

comments please. biggrin.gif

Actually, I haven't heard of it 'til you mentioned it, but I'm really excited to see it, and I don't wanna wait until September. Thanks so much for having to excite me and disappoint me. sad.gif No, but it's okay. I actually can wait. biggrin.gif It seems really interesting, though. I hope it's good.

ahah, I've got a file of this video.
Haven't watched it yet though.

Maybe I'll do so..

edit 4:54am : the video is AMAZING.
I'm not sure but I think they used clips from Saving Private Ryan, as I don't think the band would be given such a large expanse to recreate something along the lines of the opening battle scene for Saving Private Ryan.

I'm going to have to admit that it really does get the best of the song. Them chosing to use this kind of theme to it really fits the song, and well, it really brings out alot of emotion to it as well.

Honestly one of the best music videos I have seen in awhile, and I'm not even that fond of MCR.

Yah. I really liked that one.

At Warped Tour after Hawthorne Heights performed JT said that they made a video for Niki FM. So I'm really looking forward to seeing that one.

He looks very sexy and hot there. More classical face to it. I want to see it. But I missed it, huh? Will it ever come back? They always make best music videos except the first one which was "I'm not okay" ....


"Helena" was awesome. They always find the perfect music video producers and directors!

So I'm a bitch because I won't leak a video?
Sounds more like jealousy on your part; I don't care, call me all the names you want, it just makes you look like the bad one.

Also, Shareol, I'd be careful if you do have that video.
If you post about having it AND leaking it, you could land yourself in a big pile of crap,

With computer technology, it most definitely made it easy for them to do it.
I'm just curious as to how much they spent to use those clips, seeing as though it's a Spielburg movie.

How long you listen to a band depicts nothing. The only thing you've proven is that you want people to think of you as being elite because you have been a fan for that long. Sorry kiddo, but that proves nothing at all.

You need to chill out. People like you make the band look bad. Honestly, you're the worst kind of fan there is. You need to realize AND appreciate that a band will have alot of different fans. Who cares if they wear their merch, or want to mimick A GUY that wears makeup.

Honestly now, that whole little rant of yours was obnoxious, immature, and well, just plain stupid. No "loyal listener" would have said the things you have just said. Hell, I don't even like the band, and your inane comments pissed me off.

People like you ruin the music scene.

Hahah, drama on thee first page.

Anyways, I would rather like to note his new haircut. It's quite.... I don't know, it makes me giggle a little bit. I liked his older hair.

Ghost Of You isn't definately not one my favorite songs. I don't know, I think they should've picked another.

Actually, this haircut is the older haircut. In the "Vampires Will Never Hurt You Video," (which is what propelled my obsession with their Eyeball records release) he has pretty much the same haircut.

If you have it, that's fine. Don't spread it cause the band is bummed that it was leaked. They claim that it's not even done. Most of the sites that were carrying it aren't anymore so Ladies and Gents ya'll are going to have to wait until September.

edit// if you have it, i suggest you delete it. they are sueing the pants off the people who have it in their possesion.

heh, you people. I watched this video, it is EXTREMELY GOOD!!! ok, MCR did not use clips from 'Saving Private Ryan' they spent more than half a million dollars so shoot war scenes for this music video. THAT IS SO COOL!!!
ok so, this is what happen is the video...
It shows people at this hall, dressed ffrom the 40's, and they all talking in stuff, then the music starts playing. Gerard starts singing at the hall, and it shows the rest of MCR playing the music. It then shows the guys in the war dancing to MCR's "Ghost of You" with girls and stuff. It then shows the guys going to war on a boat, someone throws up, and they show MCR. It then goes back to The "hall" scene where everyone is dancing. Then they show MCR drinking together at a bar, and having a feel good time. Then, they show the people dancing, then it goes back to the war scene. that part is really cool because they show the dance floor, then it turns so water, then it's all war. Then Mikey and the guys stare at the camera, then turn away. This girl in the vid plays Mikey's gf, and they show Mikey turn around and smile at her. Then in shows Mikey who gets shot, and dies. Gerard is crying out "MIKEY" you can read his lips. Then Gerard tries to save Mikey, but he dies. It then shows Gerard spazzing out. Then , the song is ending, and the camer zooms into Gerard's face who looks heartbroken, and then song ends, and you can heard guns and stuff being fired. That's it!

Well f**k if I'm wrong then, but why in the hell do the clips look EXACTLY like they've been ripped from Saving Private Ryan?

I heard $50,000 which is a far cry from half a million....

well, they don't look like clips from 'Saving Priavate Ryan' first of fall. And besides they show MCR through every war scene in the video. Gerard said that they were FILMING clips to a movie, then putting it into their video. so yeah....just saying.

Well, then I'd love to be Spielburg right about now, seeing as the concept used was exactly that of the first epic scene in Saving Private Ryan.

If I was able to create screencaps from the movie, I'd try, to compare and see if my theory is right.

well, I guess,... they both are riding in those box things or whatever in the water, and then running around on some beach. I guess the concept was taken from 'Saving Privet Ryan', but it was filmed by MCR anyways.
Bob looks really thin in this video....

Jordanaine.. you really make me mad. it's people like you that really piss me off. you act as if you are better than us.... and you are very ignorant to the video as well. you claimed that there were clips from saving private ryan.. maybe you could have looked closer. and it doesn't matter if if looks the same--- it's not like that movie was made up--- it's historical fact, so it's not like MCR was like "that looks cool- great imagination. lets take it." they are more creative than that, and have more interest in the videos. you would know that they are more interested in helping creat the video than making one that is popular. please research a TINY bit before saying so god damn much. it would help us all. biggrin.gif

I just hate the people who listen to it and say w/e...then see a music video and are all "OMFG THAT GUYS HAWTT !!!1111"

Like a band for the goddamn music, not the guys haircut.

All in all, amazing video...

I really like the band, just find there music very simplistic...

I agree it went mainstream as soon as 'I'm not OK' hit the air. But for me? I like 'Vampires will never hurt you' And no I don't look or act like a typical fan becuase I don't lock myself in a room and cut and dress in all black. But guess what? I love ALL their music. So get over it.

Is there a sequence in the music video where there is a soldier holding his innards you? You don't really see the innards in the video, but you see him clutching the area.

Go watch Saving Private Ryan and tell me if you DONT see that.

I don't advertise what music I listen to rolleyes.gif I wear want I want and listen to whatever I like.

Go watch Saving Private Ryan and tell me if you DONT see that.

OK, Jordanriane and everyone else who thought this was made from Saving Private Ryan stuff, it was not (I did my homework!) It was made by World War Two reenactors in california on a beach set there. And yes, there are a large number of people in the US who do WWII reenacting. We set up displays to educate the public on how the real soldiers lived, and do tacticals, where we do combat situations, many times for the public. Anyway, the shoot was high quality for a music video, they had hollywood "squibs" (explosions, rig ups in the actors jackets, etc) and a real WWII landing craft. I am a member of a WWII reenactor's forum where I heard about this video shoot a couple of months ago from some guys that were in it, I and they have been anticipating this video just as much as you guys! _smile.gif The similarities between it an SPR are close, but it was not really the movie SPR that inspired it, but D-Day, the Allied invasion of france in WWII. No CG stuff was used, it was just a beach shoot with WWII reenactors and the rigged explosions. If anyone questions whether I am really a reenactor or not, here is a pic of me at an event a month or so ago, that's me on the left. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v653/gar...eandCharles.jpg Just thought i'd let you guys know the real deal about how the WWII sequences were done. biggrin.gif

Saving private ryan is one of my favorite movies--- so i have seen it... i know what it is, so thanks for that. no one really cares about your theory now... and what is it, anyway??? first you thought that they BOUGHT the clips (which you would automatically dismiss if you knew ANYTHING about the bacnd and how much they enjoy making videos and the whole process) then you decided that they just ripped it off. that they might have took a piece of spelberg's imagination and recreated it because they were too lazy to involve themselves in making a video.

why would the uniforms, props, and and scenery would look the same??? MAYBE because the soilders wore the uniforms in the real war.... (didnt know how that would get pass you!) the props... well, since they used weapons, and all the weapons were the same..... and historical. and the location???? my god-- the war took place where??? the beach in the case of the battle they were dipicting.. i think that the MCR video and Saving Private Ryan would probabally have those elements in common, since they are FACT.

and you're right... things are put in to change the affect, drama , and all that--- and by using a dirtier coloring, it gives an effect.

i would guess that if a TRAINED soilder were wounded, he would have the common sense/knowledge to put pressure on the area to try to slow the bleading.... wow....
i think that if i got hurt in war, i would probabally try to stop the bleeding and put some pressure on it, would you not?

The WWII scenes used members from our group who re-enact what a US Army unit looked like. They hired us (and other guys from So. Cal area). We have all the gear. They brought the boat, camera and a cool song. The band members were very cool and seemed to ahve a good time. They wanted to buy the uniforms after the shoot.

See the cover photo on our website showing 3 of our guys the day of the shoot.

You're getting so upset over a little stupid shitty band's video.
Who cares.. Oh wait, you apparently do.

Stop reading way into what I have posted-- You're miscontruing it.
Anyway, I'm done, and I could care less what the band did with the video.
It's still a cop off of Saving Private Ryan. :)

Go rock against 420 or whatever it is you do.

goddamn, jordanriane. could you PLEASE stop attacking everyone that disagrees with you? if you 'couldn't care less' like you often say, then you wouldn't be offended by other peoples opinions.

i haven't seen the 'ghost of you' vid or saving private ryan. and i'm not saying that anybody is right or wrong about whether or not they made it themselves or took if it's from the movie. but shooting everybody down who is just stating their own opinion is uncalled for.

and if you 'couldn't care less' about the band, then you don't post here. nobody needs to hear your negative comments because it seems that that's all you have to say.

Close this if there is already a topic, I couldn't use many of the search words (damn 4 letter and above search rule), I couldn't find one though.

Has anyone seen the new Ghost of You music video by MCR? It premired yesterday, but I haven't gotten to see it. The only place that shows it online is mtv.com, but the stupid link keeps shutting down my firefox! I've been waiting for this video to come out for a long time now! Hopefully I can see it soon.... cry.gif
