If this video has any kind of modern-techno feel Iβm going to boycott Joseph Kahn.

Joseph Khan is going to end Taylor's career isn't he?

Tbh, even though the Style video was a huge disappointment at the time, a video like that is probably what would suit this song the best.

The Style video doesn't match the song at all and it looks like an ad for True Detective if it were a fragrance but I don't hate it since it's so beautifully shot.
I would love an 80s-themed video for Delicate but I don't see that happening if they're going for something "grand" and "completely unexpected."

Style video was a disappointment period. Even though I like it, it could have been much better... it doesn't match that masterpiece of a song.

Watch "completely unexpected" be exactly what we expect.
Lots of dark blues and purples, some lightning somewhere, no real plot but it thinks it has a deep plot, etc.

If we get a Style-esque video for this song, I will riot.

I don't get why most fans trash Joseph Khan as if Taylor is not 100% involved in everything she does. He's actually a great director so if the video is another futuristic orgy, Taylor should be the one to be 'blamed' for sticking to that tired concept, not him. For all we know she could easily hire another director so they obviously have good chemistry and work well together.

If Taylor really wanted to revive the era, she'd do a big sitdown interview to discuss what happened to her, followed by a performance. I saw the coverage of trial firsthand here in Denver, which was before MeToo exploded, so I get why she's chosen to stay out of view. She wouldnβt dare to do interviews. Sheβs afraid of the Kanye/Kim questions. She would get questions like, why would you lie about the situation? You obviously knew the lyric before it got released. Do you do things like this all the time? How about a sincere apology to Kanye & Kim? Maybe they will forget you.

Taylor needs to be more careful about what kind of people she associates with, regardless of their talent and abilities. By continuing to work with someone like that, it sends the message that if she is okay with him saying things like that, maybe she thinks the same way too. Birds of a feather flock together.

Agreed but that's a completely different discussion. My post was about the upcoming video's concept which means that whatever messy tweet he posted is irrelevant with what the video will look like and whose idea it was.

Iβm so confused. Why does this make him a bad guy? He is making a point. A lot of Americans (and fortunately Iβm not one) think their gun rights or right to not be vaccinated are more important than lives of innocent children who die at the hand of both of those things. His delivery is sarcastic but his messaging is accurate

He has done way, way more problematic things than tweet similarly to many, many Americans frustrated about our obsession with guns and personal rights at the cost of dead children. This is how a LOT of Americans (and non-Americans) feel right now-we are angry. Look at the Parkland victims. They are ANGRY too, not wanting everyone to be nice and quiet because it would be more "sensitive." Like, I don't even get why that is being mentioned here as a sign of him being a bad guy unless we have a lot of NRA members upset that people want gun control...
Which maybe we do? I guess I don't know the political background of most of you.
Regardless, he has had more misses than hits for me lately and I wish she would work with someone new.

As for the videos - look what you made me do was phenomenal. I agree the song Delicate could probably use a more subtle director. In saying that I think one of the obstacles this song will have is that itβs a little alternative (which I love) but a big mainstream video might actually help its cause. Interesting to see how this pans out

Joseph Kahn was just, the worst pick for a song like this.
Of course what people need in order to turn this era around is more over-the-top videos.

I am so in for a "Style"-esque music video for "Delicate". Fight me.
However, I'd love to get something even better, with an actual plot and nice colors.

I must agree with pancakes. One of my least favourites on the album. It definitely isn't bad but feels a bit boring. Anyway. Maybe the video will turn it around for me. We'll see.

He's an ass who would do anything to get attention from your normal Twitter Swifties (me included). But I don't think his beliefs are this crappy. He's obviously sarcastic / throwing shade at Trump 24/7 but the way he does it, it seems offensive and super problematic.
