is this the nativity 21st century style

I can't see Bohemian Rhapsody getting nominated for awards when Bryan Singer is still credited as director.

omg MESS I thought he’d been totally kicked out of Hollywood :skull:

ASIB coming to knock BR out the park

Not to mention regardless of who or what is involved, Bohemian Rhapsody actually looks like a parody rather than a serious movie.

Omg and Peter Beale in a bad wig. :skull:

It wouldn't surprise me if they did everything they could to get his name stricken from the credits tbh. He was fired from the film after all so it wouldn't be hard.

..it’s a shame they’re both similar release times...Freddie’s story is so interesting and obviously factual...Star is Born is a fictional remake ...so they’re completely different in every which way...but both music based obviously, so I guess will be directly compared...both trailers look incredible and it’ll be like Sophie’s Choice thing to me I’m sure ..in terms of which is the better...I WON’T CHOOSE...no one can make me...

It's because of Directors Guild of America rules he gets credited. I think the usual rule is - when a film has multiple directors - that the person who directs more than 50% of the film gets sole credit.

..I’ve just googled Bryan Singer...I had no idea of the allegations...I’ve been living in a bubble...

You don’t need to chose you can see both :hee:

..yeah I will be watching both, Smithy..but I’m not sure if I’ll go the the cinema to watch Bohemian Rhapsody though...I might wait for the DVD version but I’ll see, I’m not sure yet..but I definately will do the cinema thing with GaGa’s edition of A Star is Born...


..actually with Freddie’s story..?...I’m particularly interested in seeing the on screen portrayal of his relationship with Mary Austin ..his muse and great love etc...I’m not familiar with the actress who will be playing her..so that’s something to look forward to as well...how Lucy Boynton is going to put Mary on screen...

Ugh slay :love:

I honestly haven’t even heard anything about it, but I’m always really wary of biographical films bc 9/10 theyre terrrible

Variety are predicting that ASIB could snatch up to 10 nominations for the films AND potential walk away with the big 5 (Director, Actor, Actress, Picture AND screenplay)

Gaga is COMING.

I hope they aren't peaking too soon with the hype, it's going to be difficult to keep it going until February at the level they're going.

I think after TIFF it will subside, resurge again with the actual release and then quieten down until late January when they’ll start the promo train

I don’t think Bradley Cooper will outdo Willem Dafoe and I don’t think Gaga will outdo Olivia Coleman or Glenn Close. The rest are a possibility though. It’s very early though.

4 new clips from the film

And of course, more rave reviews after the film premiered in Toronto earlier this week

Panic over!

They are now :flutter:

Brought to Guernsey by popular demand no doubt!?

I herd about this movie, didn't know Gaga was in a new movie :clap1:

Yeah!

She's defintely in line for an Oscar nom and possibly a win going by what the critics are saying!

Bradley and Gaga are now favourites to win Best Male/female Oscar

Undeserved! She can’t act

Every Film critics opinion > yours!

Take a seat sweetie

I speak the truth, she has probably paid these reviewers. I have seen with my own eyes that she is a terrible actress. Also many times critics have got things very wrong.

Hey out of her arse and sit down :hee:

Yep! paid the reviewers, every single one of them I bet! The people who have given her standing ovations at premieres and Q&As probably paid the GP who’ll go and see the film! She’ll probably end up contributing her own wealth to make the gross of the film look bigger than it is too! I imagine she’ll buy he nominations and awards too!!!!

It's just not realistic.

Lmao. How tragic.

She definelty bought herself into being cast, it wasn't talent that got her the role. She probably showed a bit of leg to the paedo/sexual harassing producers. Some of the producers of this film are terrible and so I'm sure the film will be just as bad

This is like the most baity post ever and everything in it is factually incorrect. :skull::skull:

What are you trying to accomplish? Nobody believes you nor agrees with you, you just end up embarrassing yourself so quit while your behind

Baiting who? Are you secret a producer of the film or a cast member because I didn't know that?
It's a thread about the film with two of the main actors in the title. I am discussing the film/cast/producers

Also not everything is 'factually incorrect', you can't prove a lot of what I said to not be true.. So what you have posted is actually 'factually incorrect'.

Ok

1. Producers didn’t want to give Gaga the role they said she had to audition like other people FACT
2. Bradley did a screen test at her house for an audition, when producers saw it only then were they comfortable with her being cast. FACT
3. There is no “paedo/sexual harassing paedos” involved in the making of this film as confirmed by the PGA. FACT
4. You don’t know anything about the producers of the film you’re just basing it on what you’ve seen re a producer legally obligated to credit because it’s the remake of this film. FACT
5. Keep posting because you’re only making yourself look more foolish. FACT

You need to learn what a fact is I think. You can start here;

Educate yourself.

well anyway moving on

Here comes the smashA

Yeah...That doesn't really happen in Hollywood, especially for prestige films like this.

The whole 'showing a bit of leg' line makes very little sense. The producer in question has been confirmed to basically have nothing to do with this film outside of a contractual obligation to appear in the credits. Honestly, do some research before you write such fiction.

I mean Kirsten Stewart had sex with the hollywood producer Rupert Sanders to get a role for 'Snowman and the Huntsman' so it does happen occasionally actually. I suggest you do some research yourself :wavey:

Regardless he is still a producer of the film and is credited and so my point stands with not wanting to watch a film he has had at least any input in.

Embarrassing.

Well, that just shows that you know very little about the process of making a film if you think a no-name first time film director has the power to dictate over casting directors and the studio who plays their lead. Maybe if Rupert Sanders had a proven track record, it would have been different and he'd have a say but before Snow White he was an advert director that would have no real say on anything other than directing the actual film itself. He's basically a rent-a-director. It's cute that you tried it but you obviously don't know the first thing you're talking about.

It's quite a sexist pattern emerging here of you accusing actresses you're not fond of sleeping their way into roles. You wouldn't accuse men of doing the same.

He's a producer in name only due to a contract obligation because he produced one of the earlier ASIB films. You do not know better or more about this situation than the Producers' Guild so don't try it. If you're ignoring the context then you have no point because your point is built on a purposeful lack of context that gets completely destroyed when you factor in the truth of the situation.

You don't want to watch it bc it has Gaga in it. Let's not pretend you have any moral high ground.

...the more trailers I see for the movie, the more excited I become about seeing it..because I think GaGa is just so perfectly cast as Ally...and I love that she’s Ally and not Esther also, that she keeps her own identity as it were ...the same character essentially but the name change also meaning that this is all GaGa and not GaGa as Streisand, if that makes sense..?...I can see why she’s receiving so much praise for it...I’ve always felt that it’s one of those movie lead characters that becomes intertwined with the person playing the role...I know it’s not how her own star was born or how Barbra’s star was born, but the role has almost felt a bit like that for me...which is why it’s such a special movie and role, for me anyway...also the chemistry between the two leading characters seems to be there, another key essential...I’m not the biggest Bradley fan but from the bits I’ve seen, it very much works with them both ...GaGa’s impact..?...I wasn’t the biggest KK fan either but Barbra’s impact made that work also..:laugh:...these perfect and amazing leading ladies, I think..yeah, really excited about seeing it...:lovedup:...
