Nice. Go and check it out.

Seeing how I'm literally on the other side of the world as Irvine for the time being, it will be just a bit hard to do that.

And it is a real test screening, the studio will go to great pains to guarantee a cross section of the General Aueince, and not have it flooded with Comic Books fans, who will give a false read as to public acceptance.

I am really curious about what the Musical Numbers will look like, since the rumors that the basic  plot line for Harley is lot like that for Wanda in Wandavision, except for classic movie musicals instead of sitcoms.

Runtime is supposedly 2 hours 20 minutes or 2 hours 29 minutes. Ruimy claims it's 2:29, that was the length of a secret test-screening that happened many months ago outside NYC and California.

I read that. Odd that there was no mention of whether the movie is good or bad.

Ruimy is not reliable as a source.

The realiable account about this on twitter said it´s 2:20, but it´s likely without credits so 149 minutes seems fair

Maybe is for the best after The Flash situation. The movie is going to Venice apparently in competition again, it´s already clear what the studio believes quality-wise

“She’s so good in it, you guys,” said Maisler. “She’s going to blow your mind. I didn’t suggest Lady Gaga. It wasn’t my idea. That was Todd Phillips, before me. But I will tell you, she’s really surprising — and really good. I saw it and I was really surprised. I mean, we all knew what she could do in A Star is Born, but I thought, ‘Oh, well, that’s kind of in her wheelhouse.’ Something she could do and just be real. But this… Man, she’s good. Joaquin blows your mind, but that she could keep up with him, and be real — and not just wiped off the screen by what that role is and what the performance is — shows she’s good.”

I feel this will drop to around 800m

No disrespect to Lady Gaga, but I think they should have picked Taylor Swift over her for this role.

Gaga is easily more talented than Taylor 

[Flopped]

Besides the fact that Taylor is untalented (have you seen her try to act in her music videos?), I can't imagine her cringeworthy 40-going-on-14, "like oh em gee he broke up with me like let's pull out our diaries and write a song about it" white girl persona trying to be edgy in a violent R-rated movie. 

She should stick to her PR "romances" and songs revolving around them.

The thought of Taylor Swift doing a movie like this is hilarious. This is clearly something far more in Lady Gaga’s wheelhouse. 

[Spidey Freak]

Ideologically, Taylor's more like Poison Ivy (the destroying male exes part, not the flying around in a carbon emissive private jet part)

haven't seen her music videos, but she was great in Cats. And mediocre  in Amsterdam

I didn't like Gaga in A star is born and Gucci but Folie a Deux looks like a perfect role for her

Not that I disagree with your statement. But Taylor is way more popular now. If you think from the point of view of Box Office, she is a better choice. 

By the way Taylor is more sexually appealing. And she definitely got acting chops for the role as shown in the following video.
The whole music video is like Harley breaking out from the Arkham Asylum. She can definitely act CRAZY if need be.

By the way, has it been said whether they’ll sing original songs for this movie, or is it just going to be licensed music?

I think it is a mixture of both.

[cinema pal]

Mostly famous songs. I'm sure  they were afraid to do a traditional musical so we'll have another Moulin Rouge
