yes. they're trying to tell you that the show is "plain and boring"... just like Lay's classic chips!

the CRY-BABY tickets just cost a little more than the $1.75 chips.

but don't worry! James Snyder is totally worth it (**sarcasm**).

I think the Cry Baby logo evokes the movie posters for Rebel Without A Cause and Johnny Guitar.

Are you single-handedly trying to destroy Cry Baby? sheesh. I, for one, disagree with your thoughts about Cry Baby. I'd see it again and again-- absolutely entertaining!

if I had the power to single-handedly destroy it, I don't think it would have received a nomination for Best Musical. I can always dream... I guess.

Do you think this board is full of toddlers? We're aware who you're talking to. Doesn't take a Rocket Scientist to figure that one out.

As stated in another thread, it actually looks more like Fritos.

No. Without a Trace & Curtain PullDowner single handedly destroyed CRY-BABY from the 1st preview! re: Is the Cry-Baby ad supposed to evoke a bag of Lay's Potato Chips?


and WaT acknowledges that!

Yeah, I definitely see the Fritos thing... It's odd that they would choose a logo that looks so similar to something so completely unrelated.

You really think it looks more like Fritos? Those aren't even the same colors!

Will Cry-Baby make me retain water, too?

Spencer's body- :) :) :)
His face looks too fake and.. I don't know...squished.

The donuts remind me of the New York Cheesecake Krispy Kreme donuts that I have been meaning to try!

We were just discussing this last week when we were in New York. That's exactly what it looks like.

I thought of Fritos the very first time I saw the Cry-Baby logo.

and I'm okay with that.

Spencer Liff's abs remind me of Krispy Kreme donuts in that I want to lick the glaze off both of them.



And throw my vote in for Lays (teehee), the Fritos orange is totally off.
