You should see how she behaves in the movie when it comes to her wardrobe (or in general )

The director previous 2 were comedy so it is not surprising to me, specially with the trailers. Ferrel got in best comedy actor for the Lobster.

 

The favorite is a 96% RT with a 92 MC score movie at the moment, with star powers, with a director that do really well with awards and festival stuff, it could be a strong opponent to face off

 

Is there any sign that it is a comedy ?

The Favorite is a shoe in imo for all the awards but I thought it was a drama and not a comedy? Or maybe it's like an ASF situation where it looks like a dram but is actually a comedy? 

 

And I thought A Star Is Born was more musical based? I don't know but if not its definitely a drama though I agree.

TURD!!!

Protagonist play song in the movies, but character does not sing line or advance the plot in musical numbers from what I understand, music here is like cooking if they were cook.

 

Musical film is a film genre in which songs sung by the characters are interwoven into the narrative, sometimes accompanied by dancing.

The songs usually advance the plot or develop the film's characters, but in some cases, they serve merely as breaks in the storyline, often as elaborate "production numbers."

 

Musical films characteristically contain elements reminiscent of theater; performers often treat their song and dance numbers as if a live audience were watching. In a sense, the viewer becomes the diegetic audience, as the performer looks directly into the camera and performs to it.

 

Putting a movie as a musical just because the character are musicians is a bit of a category fraud and something people do it, in good part because they were almost no musical made by Hollywood for a while, but now that they are popular again could look strange.

I mean I don't disagree with anything you're saying. I am just saying based on how things have been handled before and how much of a cluster fuck the comedy/musical category is at the golden globes (i.e. movies that aren't comedies or musicals getting nominated in that category) I would have assumed that a movie like A Star Is Born would just get thrown into that category. But again I don't disagree with anything you have said here.

Yeah I suspected your surprise reaction were a comment on the HFPA classment process more than the movies.

 

But they changed the rules post The Martian, now the HFPA if they disagree with a studio placement and want say put American Hustle in comedy while the studio had filled it has a drama they need 66% of the HFPA members to vote that it is a comedy to do so, instead of the previous 50%+1.

 

I think for a while they will simply always be ok with the studio pick, like for Get Out placement they were able to blame Blumhouse and Universal studio, they were the one submitted it has a comedy and they simply respected their choice.

Let me hop on a plane with you really quick. I could use a break from this school thing 

[Nova]

A reporter in Britain thinks Anna is Blake's new pocket rocket. Depending on where you live, that term has different meanings

Oh no  Is the only way you get films via theaters in your area dubbed? I know some countries/cities have dubbed and non-dubbed so not sure how it works where you're at. 

 

But yea this film is not like The Shallows. Lots of dialogue in this one and some of the humor may not translate over if its dubbed lol
