Lady Gaga and Joaquin Phoenix Sang Live on ‘Joker 2’ Set, Which Made It a ‘Nightmare’ to Edit: ‘We Didn’t Want Perfect Notes’

1. That’s good, I can’t stand the musical style.

   I just watched the new Aladdin and it seemed terrible for that. Were the animations as bad for that or do I just have nostalgia goggles?

2. People ragged on the Hugh Jackman Les Mis movie for recording the singing on set but I thought it was awesome. Made everything feel a bit more raw and real.

3. I really wished we got an actual Joker movie and not this nonsense

4. You guys don’t want perfect notes, you can use tuning software to bring notes out of tune as well.

5. Man, the trailer is pretty misleading then. I don’t think I’ve heard an unedited human voice singing in the mainstream in at least 10 years, there included.

6. When they sing at the end of the trailer
   It makes me quite uncomfortable

7. I call BS on this claim. You know how often engineers using pitch correction techniques??? Daily. I do enjoy the fact that they are sticking with the on set audio, but they aren’t just going to push it through unfiltered and it’s not a “nightmare” to edit either.

8. So they’re not one-take wonders then?

9. I know it’s lady gaga but I’m not sure how I feel about there being singing at all. 🤔

10. I’m trying to forget about this stupid musical please…

11. It worked for Hunger Games
