She could've easily made an empowering video but she did not want to replace the impact of Firework.
Roar is campy fun! Temple of Doom meets Mrs. Boss.

PRISM artwork will be revealed on GMA tomorrow!!! Hooray I can finally replace the ugly single cover in my iTunes. I hope it's similar to that yellow jacket fanmade cover. That's 5/5 stars easily.

What a very creative and entertaining video! I loved every second of it! The parts where the guy was attacked by the tiger, Katy was brushing the teeth of the gator, and the tiger becoming Kitty Purry had me rolling.
Seriously, though, Katy never disappoints when it comes to music videos. This one is up there with "California Gurls," "Hot N Cold," "E.T.," and "Wide Awake" for me.

Much like the song, this video doesn't really get good until the final chorus and then it's over before you know it

Very cute video - laughed a bit in the beginning. I agree also that the cinematography, costumes and editing are also great. So yeah... great execution but the concept is a little tired and uninteresting - sort of like the song :)

Dark and subtle as expected. Now we know PRISM will show Katy in a mature, moody light. The video is embarrassing. After the California Gurls nonsense I did not expect much, but she took juvenile to a new level.

It's aiiight. More comical than anything, brushing the crocs teeth was hilarious. But I felt while some scenes were pretty to look at others were very cheap looking n clearly looked fake/set pieces.

I'm so glad she's ditched the candy-floss colors and camp theatrics of the old days.
In any case...

we wait... O/T, but this is quite possibly the best Oprah GIF I've ever seen. About to watch the video...

Cute. Very Katy. I think her recent videos are among the best in popular music today. That says as much about the effort being put into videos today as it does about Katy, but whatever. Great video.

The one thing I noticed that hasn't gotten any sort of attention so far is the scene where she fights off the tiger. By now, I thought there would have been a bunch of people in here making fun of Katy for what could possibly make her the butt of every joke. Anyway, again, I love the vibe of the video, the camerawork is excellent, and it uses great yet subtle visual effects. It should definitely secure her spot at #1 for the next two weeks if it wasn't already a lock.

I love how the video begins with a plane crash in the jungle and at the end there is a scene where Katy is looking out of what appears to be a plane window and one might think this is all a dream and then Amazon Katy walks out of a tent and rules over the tiger and jungle animals around her. Little clever scenes throughout make this so enjoyable. Not meant to be dark or overly analytical. Just a feast of a video for the eyes and ears. When the camera zooms in on her flawless face and piercing blue eyes and she sings the final commanding Roar, priceless.

I was referring to how someone could take it as meaning her voice killed/deafened/injured/whatever the tiger because everyone always seems to tag on her for her vocal abilities, which I personally think are fine.

In other news, the "Roar" music video is now at over 900,000 views in just over four hours. That means that there are 57 new viewers for every second (or 3,422 per minute). dontlookatthisFLOPFIREMATH
1,260,000 views right now after 7 hours and 26 minutes.
2,825 views/minute (or 47 views/second)

1 Katy Perry - Roar 1.0000 1.0000 2 Lorde - Royals 0.6747 0.6759
"Royals" is still green, mind you, so this means "Roar" is increasing faster than "Royals" now.

Great video, that was hilarious! I think my favorite part was the "kitty purry" necklace on the Tiger after she defeats it. She continues to use her sense of humor to great effect.
