Bradley 56,532 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 I don't think Barbra is trying to say the film will fail critically, it's just a dumb comment made by the Hollywood Reporter. She just said they have similar themes, but the personnel working behind both films are completely different, technology has advanced, I think the 2018 version will look significantly different from the 1976 version.

Reality 70,028 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 From what I've seen and read about what other people think about the film, I just don't see how it'll have a greater commercial presence than a critical one. This isn't a big blockbuster movie; it may get attention because Gaga's in it, but this is definitely an Awards contender. š¼ š„š°š®šÆ š©šøšøš š ššŖš®šø šŖš¹ šÆš»šø š š¼š¢š»šÆ š®šÆš°š¹š¹ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

djBuffoon 11,930 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 The article is implying that, because Babs said it was like hers, that the film will do better with box office than with the critics. But I don't think Streisand meant that, the article is both twisting her words and shading her version of the film. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically: each festival promotes a competition between the films shown at the event. They're reviewed by critics and compete with each other, much like a awards show. A Star Is Born will not take part in this competition, but will only debut at the festival (Venice). Some journalists are seeing this as a sign that Warner isn't 100% sure about the movie's critical acclaim. (But I don't think that's the case).

So do movies out-of-competition get reviewed by critics? I'm actually pretty excited to read the upcoming reviews. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicOfCANCER 6,292 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Yāall are over complicating this. Ā THR is just speculating. As some have mentioned in other threads (or maybe it was atrl)Ā there have been many Oscar winning movies/critically acclaimed moviesĀ that have premiered at film festivalsĀ out of competition.Ā Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some studios put embargoes on reviews so they canāt be published util the movie comes out (usually itās whenĀ the studio knows the film sucks and want to avoid bad reviews circulating prior to release) if we donāt start gettingĀ reviews after the festivals, thereās a chance ASIB is going to be panned. However weāve heard from various sources that the studio loves the film, so I think weāll be seeing some reviews in lateĀ August.Ā Call me by your name had reviews on rotten tomatoes 7 months prior to its release because it premiered at film festivals and the reviews were overwhelmingly positive.Ā Ā Ā Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
