Posted: 5/24/08 at 11:41pmThe Hannah Montana girls make me want to scream. Tell me, they don't actually see plays, do they?

"CHUCK NORRIS
HUH HUH HUH
HUH HUH HUH
HUH HUH HUH" - These kids were probably going to ESPN Zone.
"Hanna Montana's our age, and she's makin' millionsh of dollah's!" - They obviously came for Legally Blonde.
"I would like to see Weel Smitt playink B'rack Obama on Brah-way" - This one's a little hard to peg-maybe he saw Grease because he thought "Jah Travoh-ta" would be in it?
"How about the Bush family? They're pretty interesting, don't you think? With the drugs...and the politics...and the family..." - This self-important closet case probably went to see A Catered Affair or some other pretentious crap.

Robin Williams as Jay-Z? Talk about typecasting.
But in all seriousness, aside from the stupid ones, there were actually some good comments in that video. MLK and the Civil War could totally work. Carson? Maybe if they cast the right person.
And don't knock A Catered Affair.

I would certainly pay to see Earl James Jones and Kersten Chenoweth in a show together. Especially if it's anything like Wicked.
But I would pay to see a show like that about Grant and Lee.

They were at Little Mermaid, you can see the theater behind them. I would punch her if I knew her. Those are the kind of people who I hate.

Posted: 5/25/08 at 10:34amThis is why people complain that theatre is dying.

Posted: 5/25/08 at 2:23pmit's beyond ridiculous, why would they even take the time to edit and put it on the site? I would've just scrapped it.
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott

I sincerely fear that this is for real and I shudder to think of what the outtakes were.
And that girl's accent (the one who suggested Will Smith and Hillary Clinton) reminds me of this girl I took chorus with. Oh, man do I have a story about her. No, there's no story. She was just really stupid.

I'm pretty sure when they decided to make the video they thought there would be a few educated ones, but I think they knew how smart the public is.
And I thought producers turning films into shows were bad, the shows these people would create would be even worse! I never thought I'd say it, but the crap our producers make is a hell of a lot better than what the public wants.

Posted: 5/25/08 at 7:24pmI actually didn't see the whole video. I exited after the Hannah Montana girls. Did I miss anything?

Three Korean people suggested a show about Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton and one of them suggested that this guy named Earl James Jones play Obama and this woman named Kersten Chenoweth play Clinton. They said it would be like Wicked.
You also had a woman suggest they do a show about Jay-Z and Beyonce starring the woman as Beyonce and actress Robin Williams as Jay-Z.
