Summer Boy Posted September 4 Posted September 4 8 minutes ago, WildAmerican said: OK, so let me explain! I'm sort of struggling with it, because it's quite good as a piece of filmmaking (in terms of crafts, acting, visuals etc.), but the script leaves a lot to be desired. The plot is VERY basic and kind of uninteresting and often doesn't justify its own existence. Gaga is SUPPORTING ACTRESS down. Lee doesn't exist without Arthur in this movie. The musical sequences are GREAT and Gaga is really at her best there. I can't wait to discuss some of them with y'all! There are A LOT of courtroom scenes and they are all well acted, well shot etc. Overall though, the pacing isn't great and the movie lacks a strong narrative driving force. I am quite worried about its commercial prospects, so it's time to have THAT conversation, unfortunately. It's really hard to see who this movie is for, tbh, and I think a lot of fans and casual movie goers will be quite jarred by it. I do come down around a 6 or a 7 bc despite my issues, this is a really well made film, full of great performances, crafts, etc. The script and flow are where I have issues. I am very skeptical about awards contention here, so we can maybe limit our expectations. Overall, Gaga did so WELL and I'm so proud to be a fan of hers! Let me know if y'all have any questions, I won't give spoilers, but can answer vague things Thank you for your review! I just wanna know if the "Folie à deux" song, with the screenshot on twitter, is real. Or is it all covers? Also, is the singing good? I heard some people said that they might sing off key on purpose, and I'm worried

I think something played in the credits that I didn't recognize but it could've been one of those dusty old songs that I didn't know 2 minutes ago, attention said: can you give a ranking of her movies so far (asib, hog, joker: fad) @WildAmerican ASIB > JFAD > HOG Ohhhhh thank you Bradley! 2 minutes ago, Jack! said: Would you agree that she was "underutilised" as the reviews said, or did you think her part in the film was what it needed to be? I saw a few reviews/tweets say she didn't have much character development as well, did you think that was the case? Also, there's been a photo about a song called Folie a Deux she wrote and performed, did you pick up on that being true, maybe in the credits if not the movie or is that sounding like fanfic? Without getting into spoilers, she has a small, abbreviated arc that primarily serves what Arthur goes through in the movie. AKA, this movie does NOT pass the Bechdel test. 5 1

Let me know if y'all have any questions, I won't give spoilers, but can answer vague things Grace Randolph said there would be a scene/story component that would be highly controversial. Did something like that make it onto the film? Spoiler Part of me thinks is Lee allegedly representing Joker's incel fans ddddd
opbranden Posted September 4 Posted September 4 I think we still got a chance for "Best Villain" and "Best Kiss" Spoiler 2

PlERRE Posted September 4 Posted September 4 She just leave the WB cocktail after party. Also wearing black, I think it's the same she wore for the screening after she walked the carpet and a coat/jacket.

I heard some people said that they might sing off key on purpose, and I'm worried I think it was all covers, but like I said earlier, something played over the credits that might've been new but I honestly still don't know. Singing is really good from both. There's one part where GAGA is singing not Lee I kinda chuckled at that lol 2 minutes ago, Pop Fan said: Can she win Best Supporting Actress Oscar?? no 3
opbranden Posted September 4 Posted September 4 Now that sob of Bradley better campaign for her like a *****
Janet Posted September 4 Posted September 4 The way this random gif is probably (?) from Eastenders but being spammed in this thread…. i love the internet 1

FameFatale Posted September 4 Posted September 4 The actress leading the predictions to win supporting actress has been in the lead and predicted to win for like months
Summer Boy Posted September 4 Posted September 4 1 minute ago, WildAmerican said: kind of. hard to explain without giving too much away. also, there was a rumor that Cell Block Tango was performed by Gaga in the movie. I wish it was true but I can't see it fitting the vibes.
