Lady Gaga explained why ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ didn’t ‘connect’ with audiences how she ‘intended’ it to.
I liked it. I’ve been around people who sing lyrics to fit certain moments or emotions. I found it to be pretty spot-on. “Real” musicals aren’t realistic.
“People just sometimes don’t like some things. It’s that simple,”
It’s that simple! All art is value-neutral and whether you like it or not is a completely random occurrence.
Rather explains the film, doesn’t it.
It’s the classic “I guess people just weren’t ready for it” excuse executives put out every time something fails.
Have to give her credit for acknowledging that. And I’ve never seen or listened to anything by her, just not my thing.
More people could learn this.
Eh. I mean, I’d give her way more credit for saying, “we put out a bad movie.” Instead of sort of side stepping blame by saying people just “didn’t like it.” Making the viewer the subject of the statement puts it on them not liking it, instead of saying “the movie was bad and that was reflected by the audience reaction.”
