Posted: 3/29/14 at 6:33pmI watched it on youtube and I truly enjoyed it, the music, Laura and Jeremy are all brilliant. Like others have said, the book had some issues but it really was moving at certain points (i particularly love the scene when Bonnie goes to visit her mother). And honestly, usually when I watch shows on youtube, I skip through them but this and Dogfight are the only two shows I was able to sit through from start to finish while watching on youtube. I dont see why it flopped.

You may loathe him but at least spell his name correctly.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 6:43pmI said that as a joke. My wife and I are big fans and have seen all his shows.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 6:54pmI loved Bonnie and Clyde and wish it had done better. It at least deserved to win Best Score.

It was definitely better than Newsies especially since most of the score was not new.
It was basically a life achievement award for Menken's past work since he had every other award.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 7:24pmMr. Roxy, yes, its true that the list of threads includes who last posted, but if you truly are ignoring someone, you don't read their words. As I've written here - and in other posts - it takes some effort to not read someone's words when hitting the "reply to this message" button, but it is essential, if you're goal is to truly ignore someone. By commenting on FishermanBob's post, you made it clear that although he made it to your "ignore" list, his words are still getting through to you.

I did not read his words. Someone commented he made a snarky remark. I then said That is why I have him on ignore.
Let us not beat a dead horse here. If someone is on ignore I know whatever they are saying is nasty s so I ignore them.
Case closed.
Case closed You can think what you want It is a free country. I have no intention of constantly ecplaining

Posted: 3/29/14 at 8:29pmAwful. Just awful. Why do people keep hiring Frank Wildhorn? He writes the most generic music on Broadway and his shows always flop.

Your opinion not shared by everyone.
Europe is a continent populated by generic music lover's.

"Europe is a continent populated by generic music lover's."
Are you going to finish that sentence? I'm curious to see what possession of generic music lovers is populating Europe.
#37Bonnie & Clyde is...
Posted: 3/29/14 at 9:25pmI was being facetious referring to one poster saying Wildhorn wrote generic music. Since he is very successful in Europe I made my comment re Europe/generic music lovers.
#38Bonnie & Clyde is...
Posted: 3/29/14 at 9:32pmI'm only referring to your use of the possessive, as evidenced by your ending lover with an apostrophe s, which indicates the sentence has no ended but will not related the object possessed by aforementioned music lovers.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 9:36pmYou appear to have a problem with tenses Dr Freud.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 9:43pm
Technically, tense would relate to a verb. Your error was inadvertently turning a plural noun into a possessive determiner without including a resolving noun.
Not sure where Freud plays a role in grammar.

...wonderfully a distant memory.
Heck, I was sitting next to the child wrangler's mum and she disliked the show more than I did. I beleive her words to me were something like: well no wonder my daughter doesn't have job security.

Posted: 3/29/14 at 11:53pmI'm with dramamama. I still don't understand why so many on this board were taken by this terrible show. The score was a mess of retreads with a few humable hooks. The book was a mess of bad ideas and the direction amateurish. I'm a big Osnes fan but she was miscast here and Jordan's acting was laughable. I didn't like it at all.

Posted: 3/30/14 at 12:06amMaybe the many " taken in" are right and you are wrong. Ever think about that possibility?

Sondheim is to After Eight as Wildhorn is to me.
And that is all I am going to say on the matter, in respect to those who enjoy his work.
#46Bonnie & Clyde is...
Posted: 3/30/14 at 1:34amMr. Roxy, I do think of that possibility, that's why I said I didn't like it. But just to ask a question:, if I was wrong why wasn't the show the big hit so many posters thought it would be?

You could pose your question about a ton of shows.
It was doomed to fail with Wildhorn's name attached to it.
