Gaga is one of the very few butt in seats movie stars right now. I'd say shes probably the biggest movie star right now in terms of making people watch a movie just because of her. Maybe along Keanu Reeves and The Rock

Absolutely ridiculous to say she’s the biggest movie star with only 2 movies under her belt :rip: 

 

I wouldn’t even say she’s Top 5, In no way is she comparable to Denzel, Keanu, The Rock, Will, Sandra, Leonardo, Tom, Julia, etc 

 

She has potential to be one of the biggest movie stars but she’s not there yet with such a small filmography.

No Gaga, no box office success.

That is not an adult drama, it's not Rated R.

So it has to be:

 

- Adult drama

- R-rated

- Since 2019

- Opening weekend rather than total gross

She might not be the biggest yet but she's already proven herself to be a major draw and is easily among the most bankable actors right now.

Yes? That's kinda how box office comps work Ms. World's Biggest Cinephile :deadbanana4:

 

Even if we wanna lump in Elvis, which has obvious differences, it's still basically the only better performing drama in recent memory. :deadbanana4:

One was another legacy IP sequel tentpole and the other was a music biopic tentpole. The Bohemian Rhapsodies and Elvis' of the world are a bit of a different beast than your average adult drama- HoG, Where the Crawdads Sing, The Whale, and yes, Air. 

:bibliahh:...that is more of a YA drama than an actual adult drama.

Literal every media outlet used those parameters when the movie came out, since genre, age restriction and Covid situation made a difference in the box office results of the last years.

 

Total gross remains not surpassed as well when it comes to Rated-R dramas.

yes, it flopped in your lil imaginative world.

In the real world it did good :bird:

because people want to see gaga in movies, despite all of the claims that ASIB's success was due to Bradley. but according to the sudden amount of movie experts on this site when HOG came out, HOG barely broke even in the box office making it a flop

yeah, it's way too soon to be saying what that person said. once gaga is more established and releases more films, then that will be a viable thing to say

So...the thread title is false.  Air spent $7 million on a Superbowl Ad, this isn't some niche film. 

Yes because there was a concerted push to try and make Air (which did have an R rating) an adult moviegoing hit — 49% of its audience this weekend was over 35 — which is becoming harder and harder to do for dramas at the box office aka not movies like Creed or Elvis. What is not clicking? And Air outdid its tracking numbers so clearly the marketing worked.

 

Hell let’s even breakdown Creed III — of the 69% male opening weekend audience, 55% were aged between 18-34 with only 29% being men aged over 35. The movie was PG-13 and skewed young, so no it’s not really comparable.

 

HoG was noted for being one of the only films to draw out older crowds — 31% of its total OW audience were aged over 45 — who were MIA from theatres during COVID (for obvious reasons). B.O wise it was the best performing movie in that demo throughout the entirety of the pandemic slowdown. And even the first real big swing at a smash aimed at said older audiences still hasn’t topped that gross.
 

There is the difference.

After Joker 2, Gaga really needs to do a solo staring movie to be considered a Main Acting Girl.

Box office comps? PostTrak demo breakdowns? I suddenly can’t read, but Creed did almost $60m. HoG flop confirmed etc
