I hate Todd. And she will get all the blame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janet Posted September 17 Share Posted September 17 The box office really isn't an indicator of Gaga's future success as an actress. She's clearly cemented herself in that realm and will continue to have a lasting career in Hollywood 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats thanks to connections and her already being an A list superstar...not because of her acting talent. Anything in Hollywood circles can be bought. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOTF Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Why would little monsters complain about this movie being a musical? If there's anybody who should appreciate the format is you!

Titanbaddie Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 It's the people trying to convince us that standards shouldn't be high and the studio wasn't expecting much from a sequel to a billion dollar grossing movie starring two alleged movie megastars. Also Joker is the most successful anti-hero in modern movies, this opening is very disappointing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babycomeround Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 The promotion of the film has been a mess. As someone who actively keeps up to date with pop culture, I didn't even know the film is out. Nobody can blame Gaga for that. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they were expecting much, they shouldn't have cast Lady Gaga and done a musical that appealed to the bro comic book audience that hates anything that has women in it (look what happened to Star Wars).

dumbsparce Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 I can't with the delusions and the finger pointing. Gaga not being featured as much as expected will actually help the numbers. The bros ain't here for neither a musical nor a female lead. Little monsters would watch regardless of Gaga's screen time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KatyPrismSpirit Posted September 18 Share Posted September 18 Against a $200M budget? Isn't that considered a massive box-office bomb? Hope it's not true and the movie is a success, but considering the lukewarm reception so far, I'm doubtful. I will definitely watch it in the cinema thooo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not entirely wrong but frankly, 40 is proving to be quite young for acting - most actresses now are getting their best roles in their 40s and beyond. The fact is, being an ingenue in film doesn't really equate to substantial roles or long careers. Jessica chastain for example was 33 when she broke-through. My main irk is that Gaga's been spacing out roles; so far, her approach has been to go extremely method for every performance and this isn't really necessary. She can sign onto a film and spend 2 months filming. it doesn't have to be a 6 month ordeal of getting into character.... Gaga will probably have 5-7 films total by the time she's nearing 50 and for someone whose main career is oriented toward music, this is fine. A concise but hopefully rich and diverse filmography.

Nobody can blame Gaga for that. i guess but tbh...which films as of recent (minus Barbie) have gone heavy with promotion? Gone are the days of months-long film and music promotional campaigns. People only need a few days of awareness to decide if they're going to partake or consume in something.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
