here's another question floating around in my head between physical therapy appointments.
What are the upcoming musical films slated for the few years?
I decided to watch all the shows turned films made since 2000 and I realized that The Producers has not been released on Blu Ray. Does anyone know why?
Also, So far I've got the following musicals on Blu Ray Am I missing any and am I watching them in the correct order (order of release) Chicago Phantom Rent Dreamgirls Hairspray Sweeney Todd Mamma Mia Nine
Sorry if I'm boring you guys, I think those are in order as far as I can tell from Wikipedia, but I'm not sure if I'm missing any, and I just don't understand why The Producers isn't on Blu ray in the US, it's available in Japan after all.
Again, sorry if I'm bothering anyone, I'm just sooo bored in my apartment here recovering.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
