Dressing Up for the Rent movie — Page 2

My mother has, and with good reason, banned me from wearing spandex/latex to the movie. And I'm not exactly built to play Joanne, so I had to think about what I was going to do, and I will be Mimi! Not in the infamous blue pants, no, but when she sings "Light My Candle." From the Broadway version. I've already got some stuff.

I will be wearing my Mark scarf and I'll probably make myself an Anthony shirt. My non-Renthead friends will, of course, be completely humiliated to be seen with me, but they can all kiss my hot little a**. Patronus I agree with you. Feel free to mouth the words, but sing and you will get pelted with my snacks.

I like that PSA. A lot.

I think it's funny that people are going to moo with a movie screen. I mean, (even though I never do because I'm shy) it makes sense to moo with a real person on stage. But with a movie screen? Weird!

I'll prob just wear a T-shirt, but I think it's wrong to criticize those who want to get into it. I mean, I recently went to a Sound of Music sing-along, and they had a costume contest and we all sang along and had props and it was loads of fun!

I agree no one should be singing along(I prob will unconsciously be mouthing along)

But on mooing...umm...gee Em, who do you know that said they probably will moo along? ::moves eyes around and whistles innocently:: Well, I mean, I do see your point...what if I do it quietly(as opposed to in the theatre when I'm like the loudest one) so as to not interfere with others enjoyment of the movie but satisfy my own childish urge? And umm, if you're next to me, I'll...look the other way or something?

Well, hopefully I'll take my squealing down. I think I'll be totally bouncing and squealing in my seat before the movie starts but more calm and quiet and tearful when the movie starts to not miss anything. Then go back to bouncing and squealing nonstop after. Maybe I'll be soo effected I'll be crying the whole movie and my moos would just sound like tears so I won't.

Hmm, good call Patronus, maybe I'll hold back for a bit, but if ends up like the show where for a couple seconds all that's going on is ppl mooing, I may not be able to contain myself. But I suppose if something else was going on in the movie, like dialogue over the mooing, I wouldn't want to miss that.

Ah, now thats different. If they have a Rent sing-along, I'll be there belting out "Another Day" with the best of them.

I hate singing along. Like, I do it to other movie musicals when I'm at home, by myself, but I'd never do it at the theatre.

Emcee - I don't moo either at the show either. And I agree - mooing with a movie screen is pretty weird.

Gasp! Emcee, did you just moo? I think that needs to go in my signature now.

I shall, pardon the pun, moo with you.

Moo!

I think that's enough for one lifetime.

Haha!

Ah, WickedJerseyGirl, you crack me up.

Hell, if I see the movie at midnight, I just might go in my PJ's. That is something I would do.

Then again, if it were acceptable, I'd go everywhere in hoodies and PJ pants.

"Then again, if it were acceptable, I'd go everywhere in hoodies and PJ pants."
