Oh my god, that's great.
But is it just me, or does chalk drawing Kira look ancient?

Great commercial! Loving the new vibrancy in the ads! Kind of odd that they chose not to use the actual mural though...
And gotta give a shout out to my cast favorite- Curtis- for once again stealing the scene, even when he is only in the background!

Posted: 1/19/08 at 8:02pmI luuuuuuvvv it! I'm hoping this will give a boost to the box office and that "Xanadu" will play in June when I go to the Big A. from rc in austin, texas..

Seems to be by the looks of the commercial (and Mary and Jackie's lines), along with the new artwork, that they have changed their approach to really make an effort to distance themselves from the movie.
Probably a good idea !!!

Tony Roberts' "It's Xanadu, baby" is perfection.
Will Kerry be sporting that new wig now or something?

Posted: 1/19/08 at 8:10pmKerry has been wearing a new wig for some time now. Move waves--- bit more Farrah-ish :))

Seriously, am I the only one who saw it? Chalk Kerry Butler has huge lines, she looks to be 100.
I love the commercial, I just found that odd. Methinks some one was having a little fun.

Posted: 1/19/08 at 8:12pmHas she? I saw it on 12/29 and didnt get a Farrah vibe at all.

Yep--- think she started wearing it in December-- it was after the Macy's Parade.
If you see it up-close (especially on-stage), you can really see the difference. She said that she never realized how much different the wigs looked, and really liked this one.

I just saw the Macys vid and that's how it was when I saw it. Her hair was slightly longer and more straight than it is in the commercial. I actually prefer the Macys hair over the commercial hair.
And I agree on looking older in the chalk drawing, and also heavily tanned. Commercial's still fun, though.

"It means nothing to come and sit in a theater night after night and immerse yourself in fantasy, only then to walk out the door and be unchanged in reality. This show will live on in our hearts. But where it truly must survive is in our actions, our compassion and our generousity of spirit towards one another." - Adam Pascal on the closing of RENT
