I love IMDB boards and clueless Teeny boppers.

No, THIS is the most hilarious quote there:
"i think it's absolutely HORRIBLE! especially that Sweeney is being played by Johnny Depp. and that Michael Cerveris wasn't even asked."
lmao, there's a reason he wasn't asked.
I can't wait to read the reviews from the Christian websites.
LOL.
After reading some of the posts on these boards, I think I see why FOLLIES won't work with the audiences of today.
"but i dnt get it wat iz a foolies.. watz dat. i hurd da movie haz old ppl sngin n stuff. but hoo wantz 2 c old pplz singeeng and dncin"
My example of what would happen.

....Oh my GOD! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! LMAO!
I anticipate a shortage in hair cuts after this movie. And half of the teens these days are in need of one bad enough, we really shouldn't scare them away from the barber like this.
And the meat pie business is already on a downturn.
More winning quotes!
"First of all let me say that I have zero interest in this movie whatsoever, because it sounds absolutely grotesque.
Then let me say that I have never seen the play so perhaps I've got no right to judge. "
"I KNOW THE ORIGANAL CAST 1S ARE SO EXPECEIVE....does any 1 have it to downlode lol
i hate the newer 1 the guy who did sweeney was not that good lol i mean epip stunked"
^ What the hell did she just say? lol

"Cerveris stunk up the joint."
LOL. I believe that she's trying to say the Michael Cerveris wasn't a good Sweeney and that his Epiphany "stunked".

I might have to just wait for this to come out on DVD so I don't have to listen to the girl Johnny Depp groupies in the audience going "OMIGOD!" every time he slits a throught.
LMAO. At this from the FAQ from IMDB.
Who the heck are Michael Cerveris, Patti LuPone and Manoel Felciano?
Granted they aren't star names. Google. Google. Google. You can even find Patti & Michael on IMDB.
Why cant the whole Revival cast be in the movie?
Someone is really that dumb?

*gasp* There are people who don't know who they are?? Blasphemy!
I should start a thread asking why Len Cariou wasn't cast as Sweeney.

Oh God, the IMDB boards are so dumb that it hurts sometimes. Did you guys see the thread where someone was completely offended by the premise of the musical? It was great.
I think BWW should start using the word "stunked." Meybe we'll start a trend.
Kind of off topic but, I'm really apprehensive about this movie.
Why theatrekid?
Does it have anything to do with Borat rapping the score?
That's only the tip of the iceberg.
I really don't like Tim Burton or Johnny Depp or Helena Bonham Carter. Of course I'll see it, I'm just so nervous.
EDIT: I guess that, in the end, my iceberg is more like an icecube.....
I'm with you, theatrekid. As soon as I heard they were making the movie, I wasn't sure what to think -- but when I heard Johnny Depp/Helena Bonham Carter I REALLY wasn't sure what to think.

The only casting I like so far is Alan Rickman.

"The only casting I like so far is Alan Rickman."
Ditto.
And I thought Borat rapping the score was started by a tabloid? Wasn't it confirmed not true?
I know it's an asinine point to argue, but his name is Sacha Baron Cohen, not Borat. Despite what his wildly insane and immature acting characters may lead you to believe, he's a smart, funny, talented individual. If you've ever seen him give an interview as himself you'd see what I mean. I can guarantee you that if involved with the project he'll approach it with the respect and dignity it deserves.

I remember I told my brother:
Me: They're getting Sacha Baron Cohen to play Pirelli!
Bro: Who?
Me: ...Borat.
Bro: Oh! ....is he playing the character AS Borat?
Me: ....what!?
Bro: You know, Sacha playing Borat playing Pirelli?
I walked away.
