I am shocked Dracula was shut out

This calls for an investigation - he said tongue in cheek. I was one of those who enjoyed it

i enjoyed Dracula, not the best show, no, but enjoyable. I thought the special effects were great, even if repeated over and over. And a few of the sets were cool.

Why didn't Sara Rameriz get a nomination????

[BeeBee]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 7:04pm

Because she's not very good.

To Mistress

You obviously have class in that you enjoyed Dracula. It was a pleasure meeting you @ Luxia. My wife & I see Piazza 6/4 . A friend @ work saw it & enjoyed it. My wife loves the T shirt & has already told me she wants it (saw it on display when we saw Dessa Rose)

Yeah, Sara Ramirez sucks. How dare she sing her ass off, be funny, and upstage all the men in tights! What the hell are you talking about? She's amazing!

Roxy,
I am glad you liked Dracula. Very few people could bare to sit through such a terrible show.
I do think that the cast were all terrific but that music.
AGONY.
PS: Next you will tell me that you were upset that PRYMATE did not win either. Oh and what about Urban Cowboy.

Not an insult to you Roxy. But very few people liked Dracula.

Mr. Roxy,

I dont think ive ever walked away from a theater experience feeling like I hated it (certainly not all of it) nor that it was a waste of my money & time- some shows are naturally better than others or more to my liking, but Im happy to attend as many as I can.

I didnt even get to see the merch stand @ Piazza yet because the elevator is in a different entrance and once Im in the lobby theres no way up to the merch stand unless I want to go back outside and around the block! Im going to have to go early one day to check it out. My mom did buy me a poster tho!

It was nice meeting you as well,

>Christina<

i was surprised john lithgow didn't get a nod... but so happy that the leading actress nom's were right! rachel and lachanze!!! yay

[Corine2]

Lithgow won several. I don't know. Maybe they want to spread the wealth.
I think he has won two.
He won one for "Sweet Smell" a few years ago and I think he won one before that.
Great guy Lithgow.

[melissa errico fan]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 9:41pm

Lithgow, I believe, won for THE CHANGING ROOM in 1973.

[Corine2]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 9:42pm

Yes. So he has won two.
I am glad Norbert was nominated.

To Corine 2

Re most people hating Dracula . Many people loved Copenhagen & Rent . My wife & I hated them both. To each his own.

Sorry Dracula was not more well received

[munkustrap178]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:01pm

Are you really shocked DRAC was left out?

[Mr Roxy]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 10:04pm

Even though me & the Mrs liked it, I was being fecitious re Dracula being left out

[Corine2]

Posted: 4/28/05 at 11:22pm

Mr Roxy,
Loved Copenhagen and Rent.
I loved Michael Cumpsty in Copenhagen. It was very dry. But I enjoyed it.
I was sad to find that Mercedes Ruehl was not nominated.
I saw her last week and found her performance RIVETING.

Jenn Gambatese
Cheyenne Jackson


And WHAT is up with a nomination for Applegate? I think Hell just froze over.

[munkustrap178]

Posted: 4/29/05 at 2:24am

Have you SEEN Applegate's performance?

She blows Jenn Gambatese out of the water.
