Into the Woods Official Movie Thread — Page 127

Also, I know I may come off as overly optimistic for the film, but, hey, what can I say? It's my favorite musical, and the film looks quite good from what we've seen!

I like to be optimistic and hope for the best!

It could be worse. I'd rather Groban than someone like Ariana Grande doing a 21st century rendition of the Witch's "Stay With Me." You win some ya loose some.

Meryl Streep on the mountain is NOT doing "Last Midnight". It is from her transformation. You can tell it from the trailer, because in the trailer the clip of her old ugly form with rotating camera, blueish background, and flashing lights matches up with the TV spot's clip of her beautiful self with rotating camera, blueish background, and flashing lights.

And yes, THAT scene looks incredibly amazing!

Actually, it is...if you look in the trailer, there is a clip where the Baker, LRR, Cinderella, and Jack are fleeing during that scene and hiding. During this scene you can see an inclined hill in front of them. That inclined hill is where Meryl is singing in Last Midnight.

Also, it is clear in the TC spot she is singing in that moment...she does NOT sing during her transformation...


Also, Magical Musical, if you look at the trailer, when Rapunzel is riding away, she still has her cape on. The Witch is holding something else.


UPDATE: I'd also like to point out that many of the nightime scenes have a blueish background...

It seems they are screening for awards next week:

When it comes to the track listing for the deluxe edition, I am really happy about it. It's a must buy when 12/16 comes around.

While I was looking around the UK Itunes, I saw the INTO THE WOODS deluxe soundtrack and I found 30-1:30 samples and took a long listen to them. WOW! I mean, WOOOW!

Meryl Streep SLAYS "Stay With Me" and "Last Midnight" you guys.

"Hello Little Girl" is lowered slightly to fit Depp's voice (he sounds so much like his Sweeney Todd) and he sounds wonderful. The orchestrations sound like a mixture of orchestral and 1940's big band which fits wonderfully with each other.

Corden and Blunt vocals are really good and charming and fits their characters.

"Agony" sounds as wonderful as ever with Pine's voice being a stand out.

Kendrick sounds lovely in a higher voice (her "On The Steps of the Palace" sounds lovely) and Crawford and Huttlestone are quite good.

If any of you have Itunes just look for the flag icon on the bottom and find "United Kingdom" and look for "Into The Woods", you will not be disappointed.

Wow... I have to say I'm way more impressed than I expected to be! Moving from overly cautiously optimistic to really excited.

Can you post the link to the track previews? I cant seem to find them...

Although that link is no longer valid, if you just visit the UK iTunes store and do a search for Into the Woods, you'll find it.

WOW! I am not sure what to say...

Whoever arranged the score for the cinematic sound did a OUTSTANDING job! There is not one track on it that sounded less than excellent. Wow, wow, wow!

It would appear that Krane might have worked closely with Sondheim on what music would fit in whatever the situation of the film could be. It's great to know that Jonathan Tunick and Paul Gemignani worked on this film and I hope that Tunick could work on future adapations of Sondheim's musicals before he passes.

Can people in America not view them?
