James. Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 This could be... interesting? Terrible? Amazing? I have no idea what to expect from this :huh: I think we should wait for official info from the band about this before we start jumping to conclusions.

Batman Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 Holy FUCK! But This could either be epicly good, or immeasurably bad. :P :L guess we'll just have to see... this is what I think. I hope it's cool :nod: Damn, I wish I could go there :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest howyousawtheworld Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 What on earth is this? So they've gone back to the concept film idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospector Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 ^ comic, not film, a film would be nice, a comic, I'm not sure, hope it's not as bad as I'm expecting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James. Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 So I guess they decided an animated MX film was too expensive so they settled on a comic series instead :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anniea89 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I am so here for this. Mylo Xyloto totally lends itself to a narrative. DLIBYH has Kung Fu panda references?!?!?!? Yeah, anyone care to shed some light on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzz Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 "Trying to catch a cannonball" is a reference to Kung fu panda :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shred Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 It could be cool if it was like that Daft Punk manga or something :surprised: That's the first thing I thought of when I saw the title of this thread! Will it be a comic comic or those motion comic things? I think it would be cool if it was the latter. And maybe be bonus material for the live DVD! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzanafg Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Chris mentions Kung Fu Panda in at least two interviews, one is the CBS one: http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7384864n (I'm quite sure there is a youtube video for that, but it's a bit difficult to find it because you can't tag it 'CBS' for the video will be removed :lol:) Under 'spoiler', there is a bit of a spoiler, so be advised :) In that video, it's pointed out that Po (the panda), in Kung Fu Panda II, is atacked by cannonballs, but learns to catch them and throw them back at the enemy. The interviewer then asks if Chris would be Po then and Chris says that, in a sense, he is a big panda, and finishes this part of the interview by saying that Kung Fu Panda II is basically about finding your inner strength. Another occasion is an interview with Steve Lamacq (you can find a download link here), where Chris talks about how Mark Osborne (Kung Fu Panda director) approached him and where the idea that Coldplay did the soundtrack to an animated movie first came up.

paradise117 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 But they must have been done writing all the songs for the album when the second Kung Fu panda came out. And the cannonball thing is from the second movie, right? I would think that they would at least be done writing DLIBYH by then. I don't know Im probably wrong, but I'm just reasoning. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coeurli Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 ^ Well, Up in Flames for instance was brought at the very last minute and recorded very fast. Kung Fu Panda 2 came out in June last year, so to me it's still plausible that DLIBYH may have been inspired (or just a few lyrics of it) by it.

Tash Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 In curious music-related news, Chris Martin and the Coldplay crew will be on hand to chat about the alleged secret narrative behind their album Mylo Xyloto that has turned into a comic miniseries. Interesting! link Now it really gets interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
