That's an interesting point......I honestly never thought about it, I've seen the show twice and was so blown away by some of the people I've seen in it that I didn't question it, but you make a good point......that is one part of the book I would have liked to see developed a little more at that point in the show. Oh well. Oz can be a very confusifying place, I suppose

ditto to everyone else who said would somebody PRETTY PLEASE PM me with both the MTV and A&E things, as I get neither channel here?

I realise what Rosario was talking about when she made that comment, and maybe you're right in that I shouldn't have taken her words out of context. All I'm saying is that I think it's unfortunate that you didn't enjoy the film, and that when you said "you can't seriously be talking about RENT, could you?" it was semi-hurtful, even if you are a fan of the original show.

I said this in another post in another thread about the movie, but I'll say it again just because let's face it, Macomb, IL is not exactly the cultural hub of America and I'd much rather post too much here than get too drunk at some random bar like most of my schoolmates. When I first heard RENT was being made into a movie, I was EXTREMELY skeptical, mostly because I heard names like Justin Timberlake being tossed around in conjunction with it. My first experience with RENT was when I was 11 ...

I think as word spreads about how good the movie was, more people will be going to see it. Obviously there won't be another opening weekend, but I know there were a *lot* of *very* skeptical fans of the stage production who have gone to see it and fell in love with RENT all over again (like me! ) I mean....if the expressions on Anthony Rapp's and Adam Pascal's faces during the "I'll Cover You" reprise don't just *destroy* you (along with Jesse's amazing voice, of course), I don't know what wi...
