So, I took of screenshot of the Giant Scene, and you can kind of see what Meryl looks like after the trransformation. I think.


I'll post it when I figure out how...

So, the movie is a mix of live singing and lip-syncing. Does anyone know which songs they sang live?

LOL. How the hell is anyone supposed to know the answer to that yet?

Well, the shot is pixelated, she's been running around the woods, and she's screaming. So, she's not going to look like she did immediately after the transformation. I just hope that when we get a better quality picture of her, it will be satisfying.

I think I'll wait to get it until I've at least heard one note of singing! Although the orchestrations sound spectacular so I'll undoubtedly get it regardless of the vocals.

The pictures are fantastic, amazing, phenomenal. The trailer is amazingly phenomenal. Everything looks really amazing and beautiful! Cinderella's servant costume, her well-acted look she gives to her stepfamily, her stepfamily's costumes, all so amazing. Cinderella transformation, beautiful, so unique and well done, and a beautiful costume! Red Riding Hood's costume fantastic and beautiful. Her entering the woods with like an archway of bent trees is so amazingly beautiful. Some of the Baker's Wife costume's great. Meryl Streep's costume great and her line delivery amazing. Rapunzel's costume beautiful. The whole tone and music and epiceness of the trailer awesome and pumping me with excitement. I cannot wait.

Cinderella's gown is not just a simple gold dress. It has short sleeves on it and silver material on the sides of the skirt.

It didn't look like she was at a hazel tree, like it's supposed to be, but a willow tree. Oh well, still looks beautiful.

Disney was VERY smart with the casting and advertising of this one. Putting the trailer with GOTG (which is already a hit), which has the PG-13 crowd they're looking for, and they filled it with this amazing cast! I've seen people comment online that they are seeing this movie specifically for Johnny, or Meryl, or Anna Kendrick! This will be great!

I also can't wait for parents too take their children to see this, and to see the gasps in the crowd when Jack's mother dies, and when the Baker's wife dies after kissing another man! Well, I have a feeling the One Million Moms (Well 750) will not be to pleased, but whatever...

We can save that discussion for another day. Into the Woods Movie Cast

So James Corden might be replacing Craig Ferguson on CBS. Interesting timing as I'm sure it would be difficult to expand his acting career while hosting the Late Late Show.

I don't know how I feel about this. I suppose it's a great paying job. However, after seeing his performance in 'Begin Again' and with this movie being released I was hoping he would have more acting opportunities.

When it comes to this cast, I'm largly impressed, a mixture of Hollywood and Broadway people. Good job on Disney's part.

Hopefully, Rob Marshall will not do the songs the same way he did in Chicago and Nine. So far from the teaser alone, it looks like it might be done in real life which is as it should be.

I don't recall Marshall saying anything one way or the other regarding the style he's employing here, but I would assume that since it's already set in a fantasy world he didn't feel the need to go to an even further fantasy world to justify the characters singing.

^It's good to know that Rob Marshall is doing it the old-fashioned way. I heard that Marshall's combining live singing with recorded singing, which should prove to be a rather interesting method to do after Les Miserables and Jersey Boys used live singing.

Well heres the deal with that.

A lot of times when filming musicals, the actors sing live with their prerecorded track. Megan Hilty is quoted saying that she always sang "live" on Smash rather than just lip synching because the "live" singing makes it look more real to the audience. And I think that's what they did with this. It should all feel live.

Now, they could've sung some songs live, particularly the emotionally driven songs to provide the actors room to do things with their voice and emotions, that were not done in the studio.

I know that in Mammia Mia they mixed Meryls "live" singing with the prerecorded singing during "The Winner Takes it All".


Songs that I see them doing this with (mixed or entirely live):

The "discussion singing" like, "The Spell is on Our House"

Stay with Me (Meryl will probably do some things with her voice to add to the emotion of the song)

No One Is Alone

Moments in the Woods

^That's true Showface, Rob Marshall did say that he'd make sure that the singing in the movie was a mixed style that "no one would know the difference".

I'm glad that Sophia Grace Brownlee dropped out in favor of Lilla Crawford as Little Red Riding Hood. She's the better actress and singer. Updated On: 8/8/14 at 01:54 PM

Meryl Streep is on Today this morning. She's promoting the GIver, but she may talk about Into the Woods some.

Sorry if it's old news, but it does sound like that they have added Rapunzel's death back in the movie.

Marshall addressed the report, saying, "All of those things are in the film. 'Any Moment' is in the film…Rapunzel’s end is still pretty dark, it’s just a different kind of dark, and it’s just as harrowing, and just as sad."

Yeah, that was in the other thread. I'm not sure if they added back in her death recently, but it is a possibility. If they keep her alive, it still sounds like it will be sad, and dark. Perhaps they'll have her hurl into a state of insanity, lost in the woods with nowhere to go? Who knows? But there is one thing that Marshall said that leads me to think that she dies:

"...Rapunzel’s end..."

Now, I'm not sure if he means the end of her story, or the end of her life, but I just thought that was interesting.

Maybe she'll die off-screen, and not in the same scene we're used to.

Since that article came out I am now certain that the film will be rated PG-13 just like Rob Marshall's previous films have.

I haven't gotten a chance to yet, ShakinSueStorm. Unlike your summer break from middle school, some of us work full time and provide for a household. You POS.
