okay

[modeblock]

She got in the way of the music??? Character development and organic acting moments got in the way, but not the terrible ending? Not the forced court room drama?

In the scene the woman says to Harley "you're going to hell!!" So she kisses her and says "Now you're coming with me" or something like that, so it's not like it was just a random woman standing there doing nothing.

Ugh that would've been so good wtf

The clickbait is INSANE. He said having dialog (where a woman screams "you're going to hell" and Lee kisses her and says "you're coming with me") altered the musical flow of the scene.

So he cut what sounds like iconic dialogue out of the movie only to butcher the following musical number as well?  He is the worst 

Also if you're getting ruthlessly dragged for making a shitty movie, do *NOT* throw the only praised part of your movie (the cast) under the bus for doing their job.  A loser.

That was a scene I was looking forward to to show how out of it Lee was…just randomly kissing someone. He neutered the character so badly 

[Elementary]

Guys, just take the L. The movie bombed and no amount of "cut" Gaga content would have made it a success. In fact it's clear the GP/critics wanted 0 music. 

[dumbsparce]

Scenes get cut all the time. Why is it such a big deal this time around? Although this particular one would be interesting to watch. Actors take artistic liberties all the time but I feel like the film industry being as elitist as it is, treats Gaga as if they've done her a favor for accepting her so I don't think she can afford going off script like that.

[Cbreezy]

I literally HATE pile-ons, so really hope the film can establish some kind of successful angle at some point. 

 

At the same time, I can only imagine the stories we'll get as everyone's respective PR machines start spinning and apportioning blame if (as looks to be the case) the film underperforms.

reading comprehension smh

the moment he was referring to was what he had envisioned for that scene in particular

[Edu]

also why is this still open?

[BILLIONAIRE✘BOY]

When you have an a list actor and musician do not cut their scenes or the clown will come back to bite.

 

Told yall already and now look. Karma is real. 

[terrorblade]

todd philips to be cut (in half) at the razzies

[dussel_06]

That would've been good. But the question is???? Did she get consent to kiss the extra because that would've been disgusting if it's improvised.

Guys, just continue celebrating. The movie smashed so hard in every country and every amount of added Gaga content would have made it even more of a success beyond our wildest dreams. In fact it's clear the GP/critics wanted only Gaga music, specifically LG7, which will break all streaming records when it's released. 

And then I woke up

[Xtina23]

Shame on you, Gaga!!! Ruining that moment and the movie! Who does she think she is?!
