Thanks Fabala. ::crosses fingers some more::
I hope this is one case where they didn't go back to being more like the stage version.
ooooh, then I'm hallucinating! Why do I remember thinking they disappeared, then? I think he did take them out, anyway. *shrug*
I'm sick, possibly delirious. Ignore me.

you know we need a Adam nude scene to make this worth while...but hell it would be amazing with or without it
but who knows, the final draft was from sept 2004, but they could have changed alot from then to now...but it would be majorly shameful if they cut them out
I heard steamy shower scene, during Glory, anyone concur?
I don't remember the Without You one being there either, but it's been a while.
Sorry you're feeling delirious, Emcee, but I refuse to ignore you. Have you been talking with anyone about the script? Is that why you think they were removed?
Shower scene? I only heard about a fanfic version of that. (Plus another that I won't mention!)
I didn't hear that about Glory, but they shot it on a rooftop, so no shower. Emcee likes showers, though.
I feel like I read somewhere that most of the explicit sex was cut. An Anthony post, maybe? I don't know...
I'll take Adam nudity as long as it's above the waist or all from the back. I think I have a comfort issue beyond that. *shrug*
In one of those two, Without You was flashbacks too, I think. Stuff from the time that passes that you don't really see in the show.

the shower thing must have been something my girls were talking about on Idina's fan site So Beautiful...we had a script thread once before
Without you is all flashbacks and them fighting in the present until they break up in the end
I think most people have a comfort issue with frontal male nudity, which is why you hardly ever see it in mainstream movies. It's not so much the nudity as some kind of love scene, other than just a kiss, that I'd like to see.
I doubt if it was an Anthony post, but I'm not sure. I do have the impression that someone who seemed to be familiar with the current shooting script has posted a few times on CB, so it's possible you saw something there.
I suppose there could be a shower scene as part of the flashbacks?
I saw Raul bare it ALL in The Normal Heart, but that was the first time I had ever seen him in person, which may be why it didn't bother me. I think my comfort issue would be in seeing it done by someone who I've exchanged words with more than a few times. There's something weird about that. Kind of like the tight pants issue. I'd definitely like to see something somewhere between that and just a kiss, though.
So, you don't mind naked strangers, but you prefer those you know to keep their clothes on?
Just kidding, Emcee, but the way you put it did sound a little funny! Anyway, here's hoping for at least one nice love scene.
Yep, apparently I'm a little strange?
I think I'd be a little dumbfounded, to say the least!

point has been taken...but it would be fun all the same
I should be finishing a paper, but this is more fun...anyone sick of me yet?
*runs off to read the script for the umpteenth time, if she can find it*
Fabala, not sick of you at all! And I should be going to bed, but am also having too much fun.
Very strange, Emcee, but we knew that. I wouldn't mind myself, if he was okay with it - which he wasn't back in the Aida days, at least.
haha, this is true. I think I'd just kind of wiggle around awkwardly until it was over. I don't really know why, because logic should say I'd enjoy it until the proverbial cows came home.
It sounds like he's taken on more the status of a friend in your mind, which is really kind of nice.

enjoy it for that one moment...its usually well worth it...heehee
I have no idea what I am talking about...
I guess I've found a comfort zone, and maybe seeing certain things would shake that up a little?
I mean, if it ends up that it's in the movie, I'm not going to shut my eyes and pretend I don't want to see at least a little bit, but I'll probably have my eyes fall out of my head of shock, after feeling sufficiently weird.

I wish I made a friend out of someone who may be pretty big soon...
*uber jealous*
sad now
ha, just an analogy, really.
Seriously, though I doubt if it's anything we need to worry about (or look forward to, as the case may be). The Rent filmmakers don't seem like they want to court that kind of notoriety.
::is not sure what Fabala was talking about either::

all the same...
He thinks I'm psychotic, so I'm not planning on meeting him again anytime soon...
lets just say that I made an ass of myself in front of him and Idina
uh oh. I sense a story. Come on, I've done my share of stupid things....
What makes you think Adam believes you're psychotic? Sometimes these things get blown out of proportion in our own minds, and a little faux pas that seems huge to us is hardly remembered by the other person.

*runs off to look for it on SB*
damn me and my big mouth...
I'll just give my account of the whole day copied and pasted from So Beautiful...this is VERY long...
Ok so I went to the set of RENT today....alone...interesting experience
first off I was so excited when I woke up this morning I played La Vie Boheme about 10 times (and it was stuck in my head alll day)
I go in and first off I get lost...ask for help, and then I get lost again. I call my mom and I totally give up saying that this was a waste of my time...I decided to talk to a police officer and she told me that I was on the wrong side of Avenue A...
I make it down to 7th street and I'm walking around finding everything...I see Chris Columbus and all the crew setting up on 9th. Columbus yells for Roger (I'm like oh **** I get to see Adam) I wait a while then I decide to wander around to see if I can find Idina, Anthony and Taye...as I leave Anthony walks past me...he was all donning the Mark Scarf underneath the winter coat...I'm like HOLY SH*T!!! I walk around and I find their trailers on either 8th or 10th and I stop on the sidewalk to text my friend about the going ons on the set
I walk back and I get a nice shot of the chairs that the stars sit on (the specific chairs I got pictures of were of Anthony, Idina and Taye's-but only the back side that said RENT) I get closer and the guy on the street seems familiar looking...it was Adam in a blue trenchcoat, looking all hott tongue.gif I text my friend again...shaking from the cold...brings back memories...
Basically all they filmed when I was there was Adam walking while they played back Will I? They ran through the shot with him wearing the trench and then without and he was donning a nice leather jacket...I see the long wavy hair is a nice change to the old Roger look from 9 years ago
I only saw Anthony twice...he like disappeared...
Then Columbus yelled for Lunch and the fans (there were about 7 people) asked Adam for a picture...during this time my battery in my camera was dying (yes this gets sad and then happy) When it was my turn...my camera was dead...Adam told me to come back tomorrow...I could but I was going to be exhausted by the time I went to my show that nite (Im seeing La Cage aux Folles tomorrow). When Adam was leaving for lunch, the lady he was with seemed awfully familiar...I'm like oh my god that looks like Idina Menzel!!! (I said this to myself)
I called my mom about to cry...I totally forgot to bring my charger for my battery home with me....grrr...then I decided to get a disposable camera and then go off to look for them again...
I did!!!! and it WAS Idina with Adam and I talked to her for a few minutes...well by talking I mean babbling incoherently...I think I said something about being a biggest fan (I'm not that big of a fan...yet), that I was at her last show, I asked how she was feeling 2 months later, and I told her about the bracelets (and showed her my bracelets that I was wearing!!!) I totally forgot Adam was standing next to me...he was probably like "I thought she was here for me?" and "What a ****ing wierdo!"
I GOT A PICTURE WITH ADAM PASCAL AND IDINA MENZEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god I was in heaven
I then said to Adam that I saw him in Cabaret and he was wonderful and I gots me a thanks and then I told them that I was very excited for the film and they said they are too and I wished them luck and me the loony and them parted ways and I made my way back to Times Square so I could go home...which is where I am now
Pictures will be up when I get back to school starting on Sunday 3/13...I now have to scan the picture of me with Idina and Adam b/c its on a disposable camera...
lol, I don't think he'd think you're psychotic!

rambling is not fun...
I don't know, it just seemed like that to me, but whatever. I had my fangirl moment and its all over, very saddened
