Bonnie & Clyde To Be Filmed In 3D?

Noticed the "Fugobi" logo on the wall in the "Bonnie & Clyde" opening night photos.



That's the "Broadway 3D" film company we heard about a few years ago... wonder if there are plans to film B&C as their first production? Maybe we'll get a livecast?

Doubt it since all logic at this point says it's going to close before January 1st

Yeah. Before the reviews, might have happened.

Now that the reviews are out, kinda unlikely.

BEFORE 1/1? Sounds doubtful -- and I certainly hope you are wrong (I have a ticket for xmas weekend. Despite the reviews, I REALLY want to catch this.

If B&C was to close, I think the earliest will be 1/1. The holidays are a busy time for bway shows, so i highly doubt they would close B&C before the busiest time of the year.

I still love this show.

Call me a cockeyed optimist, but what if Fugobi is a producer of the show, with a filming agreement worked in as part of their arrangements? Maybe they're taking a gamble by filming, and hope to break even or have some success with this.

And, even though the production is adamant about distancing itself from the film "Bonnie & Clyde," most non-theatregoers hear "Bonnie & Clyde" and would think "movie." Maybe they're counting on that name-recognition to attract "average-Joe" audience members for screenings.

I just find it odd that the Fugobi company logo would be so prominently displayed WITHOUT there being any plans of filming.

There is no logic to Fugobi filming this-they may have just been a sponsor of the opening party-they do work in theatre, so it makes sense to have the exposure in the photos that will be seen worldwide.

The expense involved to film a critical flop musical in 3-D would outweigh any chance of helping it out financially. In theatres, without any buzz or positive reviews, the revenue of the film release wouldn't even pay for the film production.

There is no way this dud is being filmed. Sorry.

We saw the show and were very impressed with the talent. It was a nice love story. I felt some emotion twice during the show which is more than I can say for wonderland. The show is worth seeing for the leads.

Does anyone else think Lovely Laura is joining that "buy me a sandwich" group of actresses?
Or is it the dress?
The story has already been filmed to great acclaim, 3D No Way.

Well, this certainly worked well with Top Banana...

Would I enjoy seeing Laura osnes' abs on a movie screen in 3D? yes. Is that a good enough reason for this to be filmed? Hell no.
