Into the Woods Official Movie Thread — Page 103

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...

She looks the same though.

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.

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.

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.

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)

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."

But didn't the headband troll pm you and tell you what happens?

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.
