A star is born - movie

Recommended Posts

Looks like this one could be really good. Definitely win some awards. That's Bradley Cooper's own voice in the video for shallow. I never much cared for Barbra Streisand. This looks like a grittier, more believable version of the movie.

 

If you're interested, the music video for shallow is out on YouTube.

I'm sure some people consider it just good marketing, but I never understood why Lady Gaga went by that name and also why she wore the stupid that she did. It's her like Cyndi Lauper. They both have amazing voices when they're not trying to be little pop jokes.

My mom would play Barbara Streisand Christmas music during the holiday. Worst Christmas music ever.

 

I would always go crazy when her version of Jingle Bells came on.

 

If you ever want to kill another human, lock them in a room and play that song by her.

 

They will take their own life instantly.

I believe Lady Gaga started out as a "Club Girl", and all those types use names like that.

Going to tell you, ever since American Sniper I really respect Bradley Cooper. I might have been the only guy in the planet who wasn't overly impressed by The Hangover.

 

But that scene in American Sniper when he's working out? Those are legitimate barbells. Biggest ones they sell. And that was legitimately him lifting them. Dude definitely throws himself into whatever role he does.

Caren Carpenter's Christmas album is the only Christmas music I will listen to on purpose

Well....try and find a recent female singer that doesn't do hyperproduced pop that has a net worth of $300M

I mean they prob aren't worth 300M but Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson made millions on talent

 

that's a stretch. I thought it was pretty well known Lady Gaga's name was a reference to Radio Gaga by Queen.

I haven't come to a conclusion on if she is hot or not.

 

She is very two-faced. Similar to Cameron Diaz. Sometimes, they are just off-putting. :dunno:

This is a fair assessment. :thumbsup:

 

Although I've come to the conclusion that she is, in fact, hot. :thumbsup:

Mookz is wrong here. Not hot is the right answer. I guess she's hot if you don't have to look at her face but she is the epitome of butter face.

Yeah saw this trailer the other day and I am definitely going to take a date to see it. I like Bradley Cooper and I think this looks really solid. Plus, worst case scenario, it will be a good date flick. Panties will come off and sex will be had afterwards.

 

They'll get my 50 bucks :thumbsup:

Wife's birthday last night so I missed my poker game to see it. It was better than i expected. I was going in thinking I would be watching the clock. the acting and music were good. I was hoping she would do Evergreen which is the only song that I really like by B.S. Overall they did a good job with the movie.

Just saw it tonight with the wife. Id give it a A.

 

Most of the music is damned good. Im gonna buy the soundtrack. Cooper sounds like a true southern rocker. Ive yet to see anyone confirm that hes really playing guitar but he can definitely carry a tune.

 

This movie has been made 4 times and this is the only one Ive seen all the way thru. Im tempted to watch the Streisand/Kristoferson version now.

 

Just like Streisand, Gaga isnt really pretty, but shes dead sexy for some strange reason. Her acting is pretty good too.

 

Go see it.

 

Semi spoiler alert:

 

 

IRL Gaga is at her best when its just her and a piano or decent band backing her.

 

The over produced pop crap pays well, but shes better than that. I found it interesting that the movie explored this point.

Don't do it. We had the same idea and I did not enjoy it. The music, other than evergreen, was nowhere near as good. Kristoferson played a drunk and sang every song like he was toasted. Streisand sang some weird funky stuff that never has been played since 1978. My wife said if she had seen the 197x one first she would not have asked to see this one. The story was really similar so just watch the new one again.

Thanks! I was thinking I should try to watch the others first. Glad it was good.

Also, when I was younger I thought Barbara Streisand was THE PRETTIEST actress.
