Oh God this thread is quite humourous but honestly if they ever even thought of making Brokeback a Musical I'd drop Broadway completely!

toto2 don't use words like Libel if you don't know what they mean, especially in the legal sense. You people get carried away from an article by THE NEW YORK POST, come on, get over it, see the play, i'm sure it will be a suckfest, before the vultures and obnoxious brats come after me, yes i saw it, and it sucked even worse than that article claims. But so goes it. Can't do two Vampire Chronicles in one (God have mercy) musical. Unless they build up the Lestat's love, real love for Louis and ...

Fantastic! But still wish Disc 1 was a Director's Cut, Unrated, with all the deleted scenes in the film in context. Now that would be worthy of Criterion Collection, who knows maybe in the future. Very happy nonetheless

Thank God it's a double disc. Disappointed its not a directors cut but will accept deleted scenes instead.

jrb screeners for Munich and King Kong WERE sent out just gave the voters about 4 days to watch them. Which is the fault of the productions companies.

Honestly, they didn't have to indicate what year it was at all. Alot of this and the critics reactions and nitpicking is because a year was chosen. No year being mentioned in the play worked for everyone, it would have worked for everyone in the film. The Pre-gentrification of alphabet city i do understand, but lets remember the gentrification happened over a pretty long period of time and isn't done yet. Emcee-I loved the OBC of Rent and was obsessed with the play, relax a little about peopl...

andrew - you're post which you claim to have lost friends and family to AIDS exemplifies not "support" for AIDS, but complacency. Sad comment really.

which ones? elaborate.

I've seen it, it has no potential and it will bomb on Broadway.

now hold on one second, yes there are mistakes in the film like the ones listed on the above link, but listen EVERY film has these mistakes EVERY single one, no one gets continuity completely right, its a game in film school to find new mistakes in Great Great films. Again they ALL have them, it is nothing unusual or amateurish.

eh, his Angel in Rent left alot to be desired.

Possibly the script was not that good and the plans for possible distribution were not there, but we can never know, but hey where would your screen name be if he didn't do Cabaret :). I still think he needs to get in with the right casting people, hell i'll give him names :)

They forgot to mention that right after New Years and Mark is recording the group, he is asking them questions about their resolutions. The camera he uses, a Bolex (or actually what looks like an Arri-S with a crank taped on to it) does not record sound.

Chloe - you're quite welcome, took me back a long time ago. Adam needs the right people around him, I am a filmmaker myself and in the indie circuit. Plenty of indies are made every year and alot of people keep a certain amount in their budget for a named actor but you won't find Adam on those lists, not because he's not qualified to get a film some notice, he is, but he just hasn't been in touch with the casting agents and casting directors we work with. He can find a good script, they are o...

I should have them archived somewhere, I was a Rent freak back then. If i can find it ill let you know.

I work in LA and NYC, I spend half my time on west coast and half my time on east coast, but always saw theatre in nyc. Maybe I'll try to see something in LA, you are all so enthusiastic about it.

I am absolutely positive the Adam acting bashing definitely hurt him as did some of the neg. reviews of him in the film. He's been trying to break into film since '97 and hasn't had much sucess. And I doubt after the failure of Rent critically and box office is not going to help him. And people here definitely let him know. Emcee- I'm glad youve gotten over your fear of Adam and have been able to have a comfortable repoire with him. Its important, i think im somewhat older than you, i met him...

Well put Emcee, I talked to Adam alot during Rent (yes I was obsessed with the show, sorry) and we would walk away from the theatre to talk because he was VERY uncomfortable with screaming fans, nervous fans and I never saw him as anything but the guy who takes the stress away from me from a horrible job I had at the time, and the first time I walked up to him and said smiling, "dude you f***ed up" and laughed cos he said "It was mad - I got bad" (reversed mad and bad) during X-Mas Bells and ...

Any radical changes? I'm sorry but this so is so wretchedly bad that you'll want to vomit during it. I chose to laugh my as* off during the RIDICULOUS musical numbers and the HORRIBLE HUGH PANARO (Gasp! Did he really say that! watch out the Panaro stalkers are after you) He had no clue who the Vampire Lestat was and was part of the creation of the worst interpretation I have ever seen of the Vampire Chronicles. And Elton John is banal. Just watch Aida, he is 100x's worse in Lestat.

If you puruse through these boards there are ALOT of obnoxious kids on this board that spend their time flaming each other and ganging up on others. Adam is right, this board is predominately vicious, but then again most internet chat boards are. If I were him I wouldn't take a second glance and Anthony's pissed off at this board as well right now for good reason. Adam has never been the type to like overgushing and nervous fans either. He is much better with someone who simply walks up to hi...
