In the latest Honest Trailer fromScreen Junkies , the biggest takeaway fromA Star is Bornis that it ’s the third remake of the original film from all the way back in 1937 ( which also stacked up several Oscar nomination , only to take the air away with one ) . point out on the fact that it ’s only inevitable thatanotherremake will someday couch the ilk of Logan Paul and North West , the video proceeds to thump playfulness at Cooper ’s theatrical role Jackson Maine , noting that he"looks like he smell out like Rocket Raccoon " ) and seems oddly similar to Jeff Bridges ' Oscar - advance role fromCrazy mettle . Gaga is n’t precisely nontaxable from derision , but Cooper unquestionably takes the most shot here .
The video also touches on the fact thatA Star is Bornincorporates an unusually high amount of face - affecting , and that Gaga ’s character Ally is basically a combination of Jennifer Lopez and Milla Jovovich ’s Leeloo fromThe Fifth Element . Maybe the most honest part of this Honest Trailer is the degree made about how music producers in movies are almost always evil , comparingA Star is Born’sRez Gavron to Rob Lowe ’s character inWayne ’s World .
As with most Honest Trailers , the tantalization is done in honest fun , and most of the jibes hardly take off from the film ’s most admirable elements . A Star is Bornmay not have walked by with quite as many Oscars as its diehard rooter may conceive it deserved , but Gaga and Cooper leaven that they ’re so much more than just a successful musician and role player , severally .
