The movie is a blast! As long as you like the Marvel movies (if you don’t really follow them, the jokes and storylines might go over your head) I gotta say, I was a little bummed out when the first scene with the song plays. While it’s an awesome scene, and the song is heavily featured, it didn’t stand out amongst all the other heavily featured songs throughout the movie. It was used more or less the same way the Nysnc song, and Avril song, and Grease song, and T.I. song are used. So I didn’t really get why people were saying this would have a Running Up That Hill moment. But when it comes back for that second scene… oh man.. goosebumps! I was like oh my goddddddd. That a cappella version?! During an emotional climax?! A whole new generation of kids will forever associate this song with this movie. Thought it was great! Along with the name drop a moment later. Can’t wait to see it again!

I just saw it earlier myself - I don’t know if this is normal, or if Ryan Reynolds invented them all. Do other people show up to movie premieres if their songs are included? “If I Could Turn Back Time” is in Deadpool 2, wonder if Cher showed up for that premiere 🤣

While I agree with everything you said, and think that Warner is definitely helping all of this happen… I did see that NSYNC (sans Justin) and Avril Lavigne also showed up to the premiere cause their old songs are included (“Bye, Bye, Bye” & “I’m With You”)

I took this as they showed her the sequence in the film they wanted the song for. I feel like it’d be weird to describe a trailer as a sequence. But I guess we’ll find out this Thursday! I’m a big Marvel fan and have tickets opening night. I can’t wait! Will definitely be bummed if the songs not in there, this new story gives me hope though. Either way this is a great interview. They talk so highly of her, and really make it seem like she knows her shit, and all for the love of her song. I dig it!

Anyone have any idea why this is happening? So random 😂

Maybe one will come with each reissue 😂

Here we go again 😂

I feel like Express Yourself would work really well too.

Not my favorite album by any means, but I adored this era. While the music isn’t my favorite (though I do love some of it dearly), and the eye patch wasn’t my favorite, and the typewriter wasn’t my favorite, I still found the rollout amazing. Some of the best photoshoots and videos we’ve had in a long time. And she just genuinely seemed so into it, and so inspired for the first time in awhile (compare it to the MDNA era - it’s night and day.) The tour isn’t her best, but I never thought in a million years I’d get to see her up close in a venue like that. She walked right by me, not a foot away, that night and I’ll never forget it. Like an out of body experience 😂 I got a record player in the last year and just bought the vinyl yesterday for the first time - can’t wait to play it when it arrives. Cheers to 5 years!

How does certifying singles actually work? I’m genuinely curious. I know that fans always complain her team hasn’t updated these in years, but what exactly do they have to do? Sorry if that sounds dumb! I just don’t know enough about it.

SHE DID IT!! 80’s: Material Girl - 439M 90’s: Vogue - 229M 00’s: Hung Up - 429M 10’s: Bitch I’m Madonna - 100M 20’s: Popular - 796M How fun! I wonder how many other artists have done this, or are close to it. I hope the internet stans discuss it a bit, they’re always talking about everyone else’s streaming accomplishments 😂 5 decades of hits!

While I would love to see this movie, read her script, see Julia crush it… I can’t help but wonder if the biopic trend is not in a good place right now. Bohemian Rhapsody, Rocketman, and Elvis took the world by storm, and then everything that came after has fallen super flat. Respect, I Wanna Dance With Somebody, One Love… that Micheal Jackson movie is starting production too, so they could be coming out close to one another. It just feels like a crowded space. And selfishly I’ve been eating up every crumb or hint at potential new music and am dying to see a new era begin. So it would just be a bit of a bummer if we had to wait for the full movie production and promotion before getting anything else. But I’m ready to see what’s she’s got for us either way!

I had heard that. Could have been such a fun section! But regardless, I would think someone behind the scenes would have said “hmm, we cut the Hard Candy section, should we mash one of the songs into the finale somehow?” I know I would have wanted to if I was helping put together the show.
