Which released Madonna concert has the most annoying editing?

[Tudors 220]

The answer to the question is the MDNA tour. Can't stand her outfit changing slightly every single shot and what the heck at some of the vocal editing as well. Really good tour too so such a shame all we have is thst edited mess. I roll my eyes everytime something is on slow motion too. Knock it off Madge . Your picks?

[Donna 17,963]

MDNA... but I'm more annoyed by the audio from that concert film than anything.  It sorta is annoying to me with every tour after that, but MDNA annoyed me the most.  It seemed, the poor audio editing (for me) started with Sticky and Sweet, but it was so bad in MDNA.  The effects in both REBEL HEART and MDNA was extreme too, but I liked Rebel Heart's release still.

Confessions Tour was the tour that seemed to get it right.  It too has a lot of audio/visual effects, but it was far more subtle and not so jarring as the tours after.  It's nearly impossible to tell that any vocal was dubbed in the concert film for Confessions Tour.  It was pretty flawless.  Starting with Sticky and Sweet, the audio dubs were starting to be very noticeable, especially with BORDERLINE.  And MDNA was the worst.  Rebel Heart Tour seemed to be an improvement from MDNA, even though there was a lot of jarring changes, but at least they didn't hide it. We knew that concert film was a collage of multiple shows.  Of course, most of her tours since she started, were a combination of at least a couple of shows. But the transitions and such with the last few tours just didn't work well. You can tell it wasn't from one particular show.

But yeah, my voted goes to MDNA!  But as for the actual show and live performances, it's a damn good concert show, especially when saw live.

Everybody's answer is MDNA. I love that tour but can't bring myself to buy the DVD. I'm not putting my eyes through that spastic bs.

It's still worth owning, but yeah it's sadly her worst edited.  For me, there's too much I still enjoyed from it and so I'm glad I own it on DVD.

[madgefan 10,194]

Wish someone would share the entire Paris footage in high quality filmed at Stade de France so we can enjoy the tour as we should!

[the salamander 1,266]

To me its the Rebel Heart Tour. I can't stand the slow motion effects every 10 seconds. The video editing in MDNA Tour really doesn't bother me but the audio is sad.

It's like OK we get it Madonna slow motion exists 

[musicinferno 3,778]

Definitely MDNA 

[CYSMM 681]

MDNA for sure

[vesalii 1,337]

Madame X is the worst one, that intro, the slow motion, Truth or Dare interview out from nowhere????, the explanation on why she loves “I Rise”, the auto tuned vocals, it is just unlistenable for me.

[bstranger 676]

By far: MDNA tour, then Rebel Heart Tour.

About The Celebration Tour, as we have the Rio's footage, even if the official release (probally Mexico City) have the same edit fate of the 2 tours listed above, we have the unedited and amazing Copacabana's footage. 

I really wish a good soul could share one day the second part of Paris footage filmed at Stade de France and also the unedited Sydney's Rebel Heart footage. 

[littlestartman 81]

MDNA tour is amateurish and unwatchable, the show and crowd videos were much much better

Rebel heart is weirdly filtered out aswell

[Tudors 220]

BTW I was at the Miami show and she was 3 hours late. People were booing and I was mad phone was quickly dead. I knew they were filming for the DVD and everything had to be right but I knew she was always like two hours late normally. I had a weird side view and could see her before the show she drove in on a old school bike with big handles and did this epic stretch backstage on some stairs and I was like whoo and saw her put on her red scarf thing for girl gone wild then the show started. Was epic. I did not view spoilers either. Saw people leaving during celebration while I was like omg it's Rocco having the time of my life lol

 

Little did I know a zillion other shows were gonna be edited in when I watched it back on dvd

[PHIL 275]

MDNA - i refuse to watch this!

[Prayer 15,092]

"MDNA" is hectic but the show itself was.

I'd say "Sticky". The audio part completely ruined it for me.

[lucasciccone 4,257]

Madame X is probably one of the worsts, I can't even believe they used some amateur video/audios for some parts of it. MDNA and Rebel Heart are terrible too. I can't stand the heavy filters, the color looks just really bad. I hope the Celebration Tour gets a more proffesional edit.

[WeYo 704]

I'm between MDNA and RHT -- 

MDNA: too noise 

RHT: if MDNA had slight outfit changes ... well, RHT goes to the next level with that

Copacabana unedited?

 

They edited allready during the broadcast itself. Thats why its not in sync many times and make it seem like shes lipsyncing while in real life ( fan recordings to prove ) she was singing live and sounding decent to even fine... 

Just compare fan recordings Holliday to the actual Broadcast Holliday and you will see... 

[Aiwa08 16,378]

VIDEO EDITING: Confessions

AUDIO MIX: MDNA

[wtg1987 10,404]

MDNA through to MX tour - i dont even watch them now - have the blu rays just sitting on my shelf 🥹 plus they are her worst tours imo so no big deal 

[Gonzus 2,628]

Who's That Girl Tour. 

[animalinstinct 2,124]

MDNA 

Over filtered seizure inducing mess 

 

[WopaelWopael 755]

MDNA!

I Loved the tour, but the edit is a nightmare:

-blurry filter

-fake colors like an instagram filter

-epileptic cuts

-several camera types used, so there is a loft of inconstancy regarding the quality

-fake fan cheering - like 2-3 concerts put together. Actually in Celebration you can hear her say „i wanna see you dance“ from a different night.

-they (she) made her white as a ghost so at some point you only see her nostrils

-poor audio quality in general

-Miami was the wrong city to film the main concert. And its there falt they waited so long, that they ran out of options. A full Stadium show would have been so much better

 

 

[Glassy24 1,061]

Everything from MDNA (a great show, not so great result between the obviously different shows, constant cuts, low-quality overhead cams, etc.) to Madame X (smartphone recordings???, completely autotuned vocals on every song, shortened songs). RHT gave me a headache - remembering the Deeper and Deeper edit makes me dizzy lol.
