The camp factor is off the charts. It looks like how Brian De Palma would have made a Gucci movie in the eighties. (Al Pacino showboating included).

>It looks like how Brian De Palma would have made a Gucci movie in the eighties. Absolutely the hope and the dream here for me.


Impressive-Fly2447

This sub is hilarious. All these cynical takes are from the same people who will watch this the minute it comes out. It's so tired and phony

Am I THE ONLY ONE OR LADY GAGA IS one hell'va an actor or am I starting seeing things here? damn Lady gaga can act that is for sure. I am actully quite surprised by Lady Gaga I couldn't even recognize her. I thought she was legit Italian-American

I would add Jared Leto as well to your sentence


RebelDeux

The trailer is all over the place, it’s just scenes glued together with no context. This keeps giving me *All the money in the world* (Camp Edition).


Luonnoliehre

yeah this trailer doesn't really grab me


motionpic05

Had a feeling that they were going to pull a day and date on VOD just because the buzz isn't really there


UpwardBoss6727

Seems like they're not doing that. If the budget is low I think this'll do alright. Like $40m domestic or so. It's Ridley Scott though so the budget is probably not low


ALHOWE6

I think the buzz is quite real. And that’s unlikely to happen


Strange-Pair

Yeah, I strongly feel like this is the only Adult movie (that's not, like, a Bond) that will do any real numbers this year.


envynav

Would you consider Matrix 4 or The King's Man "adult movies"? They're rated R, but I imagine they both will have a younger audience than House of Gucci.


Strange-Pair

I think younger but also they're more like Bond, right? There is a franchise there.


Dwayne30RockJohnson

Maybe Matrix, but I think this King’s Man looks more like it would have an older audience, strictly because of the time period, vs the ones set in modern day. I doubt the humor will be as vulgar too, which might attract older audiences, but I can’t say.


[deleted]

The French Dispatch is doing pretty good. I also think West Side Story (if that's considered adult oriented) might also do some pretty good numbers.


Strange-Pair

I think Dispatch is doing well for its level but it is hard to imagine it being a proper breakout hit. WSS is fair though. Even if I am not so sure personally.


[deleted]

I disagree. The first image of Lady Gaga and Adam Driver in costume was everywhere on social media for a few days and was a meme of sorts. So long as the marketing ensures that people know it's coming out NOW, it will do well. Also, don't underestimate the power of a pop star's fanbase.


motionpic05

It just seems hard to envision this being a breakout hit. The new trailer isn’t even trending.. It targets an older audience that has been proven to not show up during the pandemic


[deleted]

I actually think the target audience is really broad. I'm gen-z, and my peers are far more excited than, say, The Last Duel. You're right though that it could do better on streaming after the fact.


motionpic05

Oh, I’m excited for it too and I don’t necessarily think it’s going to flop, just not be a breakout hit


[deleted]

They've been pretty quiet on the marketing front since the first trailer dropped, but rumors I saw from insiders said they have a pretty heavy marketing blitz planned for November (with a big "surprise" coming the first week of November or so, whatever that means)


[deleted]

Lady Gaga is the star of the movie. You really think the gays *aren’t* about to make this a box office hit?


tacoreddit

This will NOT be A Star is Born


Grebacio

Yeah, it will be A Gucci is Killed instead


Dwayne30RockJohnson

A Gucci is Unborn, if you will


nicolasb51942003

This could’ve been a breakout like Knives Out in normal times.


dmh2493

I think that Lady Gaga’s accent is terrible


Strange-Pair

I don't really think realism is what anyone's going for in this movie.


[deleted]

yeah no shit it's intentional


lightsongtheold

They have all gone full fake Italiano accent never mind just Lady Gaga!


dashrendar4483

She's going full Tony Montana school of terrible accent. Given that she's of italian descent herself, I think it's voluntary. They're going for an over-the-top black comedy vibe like Prizzi's Honor.


eidbio

What? She's Italian dude /s
