Broadway's COME FROM AWAY on Apple TV - News & Discussion Thread — Page 8

That's a bummer, he's made a lot of disappointing choices but I really loved his performance as Kevin. Anyways, looking forward to watching this in a few short months! 

Nah, you don't get to pronounce that as a fact. Sorry. You scolded someone for doing that the other day. That's your opinion. Period.

I am unclear on what you thought was fact and not opinion (assuming your unreferenced comment was directed at me, which seems likely since I regularly rail against opinions masquerading as facts). My first  paragraph was simply my opinion on the import of someone else's post and my second paragraph was all about my conclusion that Kimball is a bad person (based on various other opinions about science, religion, and politics). "Bad" is one of those words (as I have also preached repeatedly here) that is by definition an opinion. I didn't think I had to explain that. I disagree with Fosse's latter post about one thing though. I think Trumpism can be an opinion; the definition of opinion includes ignorant ones. And I agree with you about one thing: there is nothing wrong with you liking the performance of someone even if they are personally reprehensible. There may, for example, be those who enjoy the performance of MJ (the show and its subject) despite his evil. Each of us gets to decide where to draw these lines. At the same time, each of us gets to protest that which we think deserves condemnation. But to get back to the original point, I think it is reasonable to exclude someone from a workplace when they pose a risk to others.

Yeah, because how many people actually use Apple TV?

To none of our surprise, the film version has been indefinitely placed on hold.

I thought they’d sorta said this when the live filming was originally announced… Was a “doing pro-shot instead of movie adaptation” kinda thing. (My guess was they couldn’t come up with a way to bridge the dramatic feature/pseudo-documentary kinda line/structure that would still please the fans and the original creators.)

Despite what Wikipedia says, I'm pretty sure this was never officially announced.

I meant the indefinite postponement of the feature film, when the staged filming was announced.  They never specified at the time (February 2021) that the staged filming was replacing the feature film.  But we all speculated that.

Although, it hasn't been a problem before if you consider: Into the Woods, Sweeney Todd, and Everybody's Talking About Jamie. I know the first two were many years after the filmed production. If anything, I'd say the filming of the show came out of nowhere, and a film version was first. Although, it could all be very "chicken or the egg" lol
