Haha. I'm very glad about that as well. It would have been very annoying. The parentals might not have been such a big fan of it either.

I wasn't thinking annoying so much as potentially life threatening, actually. 3 more daaays!!!

I'm really happy for you, theatrebabe. Do you live outside the big cities? If so, I'm not surprised that it will be harder to find. Some managements must feel that it will be a risky sell in their areas.

I haven't been looking at the reviews thread, so I don't know if the Hollywood Reporter one was posted there. Apparently it's a RAVE, which makes me feel really good. Hollywood Reporter and Variety are the two main trade papers, and their reviews are quite hard-headed and reliable.

I don't live in a very small city. Not a big city either though. About 36,000 people. College town. I was really surprised when I couldn't find it.

Yay for good reviews.

Yeah, a college town seems like a good bet - unless it's in Texas or something. I skimmed the review, skipping the spoilerish parts, and it said Rent was the best movie musical in years, fresh and audacious, or something like that. It also said that it would need some very smart marketing to succeed outside the major cities.

I just got back from the theatre (Harry Potter!). I stood in the lobby for a few minutes afterward to admire the Rent poster in its lovely glass case. People kept stopping to look at it, so I edged closer to hear what they were saying. I caught, "There are ads for this ALL over the TV." I couldn't tell if they were happy with that fact or not, heh.

Chloe, do you have the link to the rave review?

I walked by the Ziegfeld today. They have Rent stuff up outside. It's weird!

Real and unreal, kind of? I walked by at around seven the night of the premiere - there was still a lot of shouting and flashes going on the tent though I couldn't see much. But the Rent logo on the marquee was quite something.

Here's the link. I don't know whether it'll be good beyond today or not.

Exactly. It was right there in front of me, in one of the most famous movie theatres in the country. But I was like "huh? NO!"

They must be working on the board, or something. It's been coming up with really delayed double posts all afternoon.

Yeah. It took about 10 minutes to post my last message. Then it said the page couldn't be dispayled. Wierd.

Remember when that used to happen regularly? It's been quite a while since there were problems with the board.

So having just peeked a little here and there, I'm getting the impression that the reviews tend to be split between the love/hate extremes. I think that's better than just an "it was okay" reaction. Better to provoke some kind of strong reaction than be bland.

Oh my goodness, I thought we lost the thread for a second there! I completely skipped over it when I was reading the thread titles.

Okay, so I went to see Harry Potter tonight. I can't even remember the last movie I saw in the theatre... Madagascar, perhaps, this past summer? It actually made me even more excited to see Rent. I'd forgotten what it's like at the movie theatre. Even though you're sharing the film experience with a whole auditorium full of people, it just seems so much more... personal, maybe? I don't know the word I'm going for here, eek. But it's just so HUGE, and it completely surrounds you. And it was Harry Potter! I can't even imagine what Wednesday is going to be like. I was reminded of why I love seeing movies when they're released, instead of saving a few bucks and waiting for the DVD.

That said, I will be arriving EARLYEARLYEARLY for Rent. I had to sit in the front section tonight, close to one side. NOT. COOL. I want dead centre seats.

Question: Does anybody remember the video of the Boston Christmas tree lighting concert/ceremony at which Adam sang? I know I found it last year, but I can't find the link anymore.

There was a thing in the paper the other day about the tree we sent to Boston, and remembered that he sang a song about Halifax.

At all? No... video...? That's so sad. It was a great song, and he was dancing around the stage and EVERYTHING!

Thanks for looking, Em.

Nah, the page is just gone altogether. I thought I had the video saved on disk, but if I do, I can't find it. I'll keep looking.

I was going to try Googling, but I don't even know what keywords I should use! I hope you find it, but no worries if you can't!

How was your weekend, Em?
