I'm just going to try and forget about this movie until it comes out. Hopefully, I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Fair enough, snarky comments do not real criticism make.

I got close, the black cowboy musical I was in (Deadwood Dick-Legend of the West) got very close "off-Broadway." We ended up sharing a theatre with a show about horses (no, not "Equis"), I don't remember the name of it. We were there for several weeks, although I had to leave to go back to school and the guy who replaced me didn't understand [why] I was doing my bits of business, so he just repeated them with no real heart!

I understand changes. (I'm probably one of the few people who actually [liked] the movie version of Man of LaMancha!) But from what I'm hearing, the addition of sword fights, removal of some songs, new songs being added. It just sounds to me like Andy Loud Webby is just writing a new show from scratch!
