RENT!!! i'm a renthead so of course gotta stay true. However, I am looking forward to the producers as well.. and my jai will be in the producers movie.. so thats always an added bonus
RENT, no doubt!! i am so excited to see (most of) the OBC do it as well as just seeing all of them on the big screen! although, don't get me wrong, i'll be all over the producers movie as well.
Now don't get me wrong, I am most certainly looking forward to seeing the Rent film, but I think The Producers might be better as a film. Mel Brooks really knows what he's doing when it comes to films and I LOVE his other ones. Obviously, with much of the original cast in tact, Rent will probably be great, but I'm just a tad worried it won't transfer well. *worry worry worry*
Not really excited about either one. But more so for the Producers than rent.
Well I just recently began to like Rent (laughing in the backround) I can't wait to see it especially because Rapp, Pascal, Diggs, and Menzel are starring in it but the Producers was incredible, I saw it with the OBC and the fact Will Ferrel is hysterical and will be great but then again I don't know bout Uma thurman playing Ulla, that's weird cuz I never knew she sang at all, so as of now I can't wait for Rent.
The Producers. I trust Mel Brooks and Susan Stroman not to screw it up. I adore Rent, but I'm worried about the movie. I really hope it's good.
Rent!
I agree theatreboy, I am sort of worried about Uma Thurman. I hope that they made the right decision with that casting... but I didn't like the idea of Nicole Kidman either. I guess we'll see.
But I can't wait for Rent, but I will definitely be seeing the Producers... but I'll be listening to the music first, just to check it all out.

not to be rude, but it was I who said about Uma Thurman. And I agree, Nicole would have screwed it up but at least we know she can sing. I had no idea Uma could so we'll wait and see.
I apologize... I have made the correction.
while I agree with you, Nicole Kidman has a decent voice... I don't really think she is good. I wouldn't have liked her in the Producers, but I would have liked her much better than Uma Thurman. I wonder if they just chose some random actress... because it seems that way to me

I agree, I honestly don't see why Mel didnt just ask Cady Huffman to do it. She won a tony for the role and they used the rest of the OBC except Oscar cuz he plays Max currently. She was incredible and I saw her 3 times and she got better each time so I think they were just in trouble and picked Thurman.
EXACTLY how I feel theatreboy. I dont' understand why they didn't pick her. She was obviously brilliant as the role, and I think they were stupid in choosing Uma. I'm sure she would have been willing to do it, and I will be sitting there watching the movie and wondering why they didn't choose Cady.

Well then again I dont think Mel is gonna kill it so he must have faith to cast her.

RENT has and always will have a special place in my heart- it impacted me so much that I'm anticipating it more than the Producers, even though I'm really excited about that, too...

RENT for two reasons:
1) when i first became a little "renthead" back in 1998 when i saw the footage it clicked in my tiny mind a rent movie would be awesome.
2) "Producers" the original move=perfection. Why mess with it?
