Same. Washed up loser old man gets young woman as life partner. Very Hollywood (You might say that's the point, in which case, well done), nothing new. So what?

But yes the music was great.

How much can you really criticize a remake for not being original?

Wat. Bradley Cooper is old now?

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 10:20 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, he's 43. But the thread of every iteration of this script is "guy has been in showbiz for a long time and he's old in terms of how long he's been performing"

In the same sense that Lady Gaga is "young".

So, apparently, I'm old and 32 is young.

Maybe it has less to do with their actual ages and more to do with the characters they're playing?

ayrt

Were they playing significantly older/younger or was the story more about the difference in the amount of experience they had and how he was on a downswing in his career due to alcoholism and depression as she became a rising star due to her talent?

I think Ally was supposed to be around the age Gaga was when the movie was filmed. She wasn't a young ingenue, she had been on the margins of the industry for years.

I don't know what 'soundtrack is a bop' means. Is that good or bad? It rhymes with flop to me, so my brain keeps telling me that it's a bad thing.

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Bop is good. Like you're bopping around to the beat.

(Anonymous) 2018-11-10 11:03 pm (UTC)(link)
A bop is a song that bops

(Anonymous) 2018-11-11 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
Bop, derived from the term bebop, can be used to describe a song, usually a catchy or pop song (“did you hear that new Lady Gaga bop”) or a dance (“I was bopping to the new Lady Gaga album”) but has now colloquially been used as “a bop”, which means a song or album is catchy, good, and maybe makes you want to dance.

It’s actually a pretty old term the exact usage of it has just shifted over time + it’s come back into popular language pretty recently I think

I just wished they changed the script more - but I do not like melodramas.
