4th Quarter Final Reviews

The final Quarter Finals have zoomed right past us! Might we add that this round was a very normal round. The performances were all more or less very saathu. Hmmm.. In other words, pretty predictable.

Before we go on to the reviews, here's a shmaal shout out to Haresh:

Yo Dude, whoever you are, thanks for the awesome videos! They are crystal clear and you upload them up in a jiffy! It takes effort and it certainly helps everyone especially our fellow dancers. You have brought them to the next level - onto worldwide net. For that, you have our thanks! Nandri fellow Indian!

Now, the 2 groups who got in:

Mera Naam Joker

Clearly the winner in out poll this week, we knew somehow that these Jokers would get in! And they did!

A much better performance compared to Danz Arena. The piece on a whole was very fluid, and gelled together very well. Basically, the song, their movements and their expressions were up to par with everything going on around them.

In contrary to what Miss Lavanya said, we kinda liked the costume. It was different. We think they could have done better with the selection of fabric, but other then that the structure was new and different. It was a tad but plain, but it was an effort, can't say no there. So Kudos to Mera Naam Joker! You boys have redeemed yourself! We'll see you in the Semi Finals!

RSR

Jiggu Jiggu costumes makkal! Haha. The idea of having a 2 sided costume was certainly out of the box! Nice idea on that!! It could have signified the whole concept about snakes, and how 2 headed they could be sometimes. Not too sure on that though, but on the overall, these girls were good!

Something about their performance made if feel like it was from the 90's tv performance. And that is NOT an insult! Its Just a feel of the concept and the whole dance, that’s all. And we think that ladders are the trademark to this group. So far every performance of theirs involves their beloved step ladders! Their choreography and formations definitely suits their concept. But but but, the one thing we noticed in this performance was how awfully cramped up on stage they were. We kind of concluded that this was because of their formations. And girls, expressions were still bland. Why girls, why? Maybe the costume and masks overpowered the whole dance like how Miss Sridevi pointed out? And and and, only 1 person was missing in the dance. Haha, whatever it is, you are all in the Semi's! We hope to see you (and your ladders) again! All the best!

On the Fence

Anarchy

We applaud the effort for thinking of doing something different! This is one of the niche performances for the night. Costumes were extremely unique, it doesn’t strike you as attractive on first glance, but it tends to grow on you the more you watch them. Their dance was really one of a kind. Simple, Straight, Special (any other S u can think of) just like the costumes, the piece grows on you eventually. This junior group of Anarchy 99 is making its way back for the wildcard round! Let’s wish them all the best!

Mega Highlight
