One has to wonder if the whole Jason Derulo/Instagram issue wasn't a publicity stunt. I'm sure that will probably draw in a few curiosity seekers to the film that might not have gone otherwise.

Do you have a link for this info?
Here is a link to an article where he addresses this issue ...
One thing that concerns me is the trailers so far have not shown us any sample of the singing other than a brief glimpse of Jennifer Hudson singing Memory ... normally one would think they would release the soundtrack, or at least a couple of the songs, several weeks before the films release to generate a little buzz and excitement for the film ... or are they worried that it might have the opposite effect?
I thought they said that tickets for the US screenings would be going on sale on November 8th ... it's now the 12th and when you use the link it still is for signing up to be notified when tickets go on sale ... what's up with that? I can't even find a listing of theatres that will be showing it so that I can see if it will even be playing in our area.
Some article I read said that tickets would go on sale today for the US but when I go to the website all it has is a sign-up link to be notified when tickets go on sale. Am I not looking in the right place?
I wonder what happened to this ... there has been absolutely no information forthcoming whether this will ever actually come out or if it has been scrapped. A real shame if that is the case.
I would venture a guess that 80% of the people posting here have never even seen the stage production or if they did, did not care for it. To say that the stage production was garbage is just plain ludicrous!! The show was one of the longest running shows in Broadway and West End history ... obviously somebody thought it was good. I swear people get some perverse sense of power and pleasure from sitting anonymously behind their computer screen and trashing films, stage shows
I don't suppose we could possibly be so lucky that they would be recording this ... for a video or audio release. The proceeds could also go to the Actors Fund. I would love to be able to experience this but those of us that don't live in NY miss out on all these types of events!!
