And that song, not TCHAIKOVSKY for me.

(34,060 posts)I appreciate what she was doing at first but now she just seems like another not very talented but already on the inside who we will have to listen to over and over. YMMV, a lot of people think she is great. I like Bradley Cooper OK but would not go to this movie if you bought my ticket and gave me a bottle of wine.

(70,497 posts)I don't dislike her. Cooper is cardboard to me. So you haven't seen the movie? I do that with almost all of the awards shows, judge without seeing them, but did see this one.
I have no intention supporting someone that gains popularity doing one thing and then is judged as a talent in everything else. It seems like so much is that way.
I hope it did not sound like I judged the movie, it is just that I have no intention of wasting one second on GaGa.

Not saying it's a great acting performance, I just like him in the movie. And "Watch Closely Now" is a kick-ass tune ...

(34,060 posts)He worked so hard to do this film and make it right for Freddie's memory. I thought he did a great job, they all did.
To go ahead and respond to your next post, I never saw this as best picture material. I loved it but... Good for them. I would love to see Rami get the Oscar.
