Thique may have fallen kinda flat as a performance, but at the same time it was like… situated perfectly for me

The press for the film DID make big deal about it being released on World AID Day

didn't she talk about it at the London premiere herself and confirm it as the reason behind her release date? that was her own doing (and not a bad thing, imo)

omg her ass really getting thique 

[BGKC]

I still kinda hate Thique apart from the bridge. Bomb choreo was written all over it both as a live and as a visual, but oh well. We wouldn’t want her to further injure herself over a song like Thique, but it really was an unimaginative bit for such a flamboyant song. Like to just stand there lounging on some railing doing the bare minimum? 
 

anyway, after seeing the film in theaters I’ve decided to buy a surround sound system for my living room TV. It was never something I considered getting until I saw the film and felt that bass rattle my puss. If it gets put on streaming I will need surround sound.

That Review was a perfect example of "I dont like Bey so im gonna watch the Film to find things I dont like about her". Such bad journalism

 

[kimberly]

regarding Thique/AUIYM — I think the only part of that portion that dragged was her transition between the two songs. I guess they didn't want to cut it up weirdly but they could have shown the twins or the crowd and cut back to Bey and she could jump into the song faster. the film transition being longer than the album version is the drag.

 

otherwise, AUIYM definitely did not get people antsy or leaving here, people clapped after it ended in one of my screenings. it's so intense and beautiful, and the cinematography eats. it's a serve.

 

Thique doesn't hit live, it's just not the kinda song you want to hear live vocals and instrumentation on tbh. good thing is, she keeps the performance pretty short.

 

songs she shortens significantly throughout the show (Church Girl, Plastic, Thique, AUIYM, Summer Renaissance) are well-selected.

I feel like she brought up the knee surgery to explain her being MIA from June 2022-May 2023 and the scrapped visuals. 
 

I know I know the rumor going around was that she had already finished the visuals and was shopping them around, but my theory is that they were almost finished, but she wasn’t able to complete it due to her surgery (and subsequent recovery) to the best of her ability and then the tour rehearsals were to start, so instead of putting her time into finishing a super delayed project, she just decided to focus all her energy into the tour and planned a tour film instead as the “visuals” for this era.

IA. It’s the transitions that killed those performances. Either way, she’d get more flack from fans if she didn’t include the big 3 in the film since literally every show had fans bitching about it. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. 
 

I feel she did good job of shortening the songs while still giving a good performance of the songs, 

[Jon Snow]

It didn’t even take seven days for this place to end up in chaos 

[Jon Snow]

Another mess is that they bullied Julez and Solange, and both of them saw it. It’s not about criticism, clearly. If you don’t like something, you don’t have to bully people like this. Same goes for the comments on Beyonce’s skin or why she didn’t say more about Uncle Johnny or be more vulnerable in the film. Those are not the things you can criticize. Let people live their lives and have privacy. 

[ThousandMiles]

Thique is one of the best performances of the night, are y’all on crack? And she doesn’t look bored, she looks c*nttttt. The moans she included in the KC performance 

 

The girls that get it 

[ScorpiosGroove]

remember when that virgo’s groove visual leaked ? we were all so sure it would come out soon, so happy… that was 6 months ago

how many documentaries has this footage been in now? Do we think this is all she has?

This and the pageant footage from Flawless. But it was cute cause everyone at my theater (probably full of stans) said it out loud

This was an amazing look, definitely one of my favorites.

 

I can't believe y'all voted for the birthday show look over this one

[Lose My Breath]

IDK why anyone would want to cut the AUIYM performance, with the vocals, and her single white female (the movie) performance.  The transition from "I told you i'm a ******* problem" to "I really love you" is brilliant, with that little head tilt, and smirk.

 

If anything, the audience was tired of the documentary stuff, especially towards the end.

I'm never forgiving black twitter for forcing Beyonce to be the face of an entire genocide and century long conflict after they kicked off a campaign to call her whitewashed at her premiere. They twerk to Barbie playing in Imax in Israel, call Zionist Timothee cute and celebrating Taylor's era and record sales despite critiques from her own fans regarding Feminism, tokenism and handling logistics for her own tour overseas.

 

Idc. Some of yall will try to say "were not talking about that", it's disgusting how alot of yall as even fans can't stay on code and ultimately expect so much out of black artists, but particularly Bey as a woman. This is in light of Usher trying to make a comeback where he cosigned Israel but had to delete. His other scandals have also been well hidden. He is factually our biggest black male artist alive today. 

 

When Bey is officially retired. I want her to dig deep on the record regarding this. Cause I'm so tired of her being gaslighted and bullied by white and black media while they uphold anyone white and or black male against her.

Yes, that’s my takeaway as well. Majority of audience I was with just wanted to vibe with the music and hated being interrupted by the end.

And it’s like you can barely listen to one song from the album without wanting to play the whole album. I put Pure/Honey on during my workout and said you know what… let’s get into another full listen

 

THEE artist of our lifetime me thinks 

[Kristie Kuwa]

All.I know is: They shouldve pushed Heated now after the film.premier. that was a true MOMENT in the film

I really wish she had performed the breakdown near the end of THIQUE, my fave part of the song and the most dynamic part.

 

I liked the long transition though, it felt sassy.

It's strange because when I attended the tour, by about AHAP I was feeling tired, as excited and eager for it to last forever as I might have been, and in my first showing around this time I was realizing how long it was too, BUT the second showing I saw felt way faster, like I was surprised when SUMMER RENAISSANCE was already on.

The Stockholm version was the best version.
