You're a Jennifer Laura Thompson fan, but you want to see her play Elphaba rather than taking on a new, exciting role? Why?

Because BroadwayGirl...he/she is a stupid Wicked Bandwagon Fan, and apparently doesn't realize real talent.



I seriously just threw up. I have a fever, and bronchitis and this is making me sick.

Wow, I don't WANT her to do anything. I'm theorizing what would happen IF. I just want that girl to perform.

"Oh come on. Acting is thrown out the window in Kristin's case. I don't care if she's a fabulous actress (which she is), she can't sing that part! You can't have a little cupie doll voice sing Elphaba. That's like trying to cast Audra McDonald as Effie in Dreamgirls. "

Well, you just proved my point and helped me further my KC analogy - they have similar voices - I know that sounds crazy (i mean, casting two actresses with similar voices for the same role).....

Feel better, LittleFish.

Ack! I don't like this! Such animosity! Go lay down. Get some rest. No one wants a sick poster. Go get better!

And BSoBW, you make no sense.

Thank you my friend. I am not cranky...I am just annoyed with a new 69 Wicked posts everytime I check the boards.

[bjivie2]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:05pm

Me too. I'm kind of shocked that I actually started a thread about Wicked.

1 - i was being sarcastic
2 - i was mocking your stupidity of starting this thread

LilFish - just remember JLT won't do anything this stupid...

MY stupidity? You're the one quoting Dracula in your signature.

[BSoBW2]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:18pm

::looks at your signtaure::

actually, i am quoting it b/c i just saw it again and it is closing soon - as in I am honoring the show....

Also, i like that line...but that has nothing to do with your weird ideas....

OH, and have you even SEEN Dracula? Updated On: 12/30/04 at 11:18 PM

I'll admit that the JLT idea was pretty weird. I was reading about how one lady played Effie, Deena and Lorrell in the Broadway production of Dreamgirls, and it got me thinking.

and i am stupid because i like dracula - i had no idea my liking of shows has anything to do with my intelligence...better call my college and tell them i am dropping out...

It's ok. We all have our faults. I like Brooklyn. And I'm a horribly mean person.

Shut up, and stop fighting. We are all friends here.




(can I say that without smirking....um, nope!)

i don;t think we are anymore lilfish (or ever were - i dunno)

bjive - fine you can like BKLYN and I will like Dracula....
and i am a stubborn person...i just am too tired to think - which is why i come on bww -

[bjivie2]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:31pm

Yeah, I think we've come to a consensus. You have Dracula. I have Brooklyn. And my crazy casting ideas. Carol Channing as Elphaba?

[BSoBW2]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:32pm

i'll only give you that if i get harvey as glinda

[LittleFish8386]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:32pm

Now that I would pay to see!

[FOCI]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:33pm

Do I think she could do it: Sure
Do I think she should do it: Not really, it doesn't seem to make that much sense
p.s. I think you are assuming that Elphaba is in some way a better role than Glinda which IMO is not true.

[bjivie2]

Posted: 12/30/04 at 11:45pm

This thread is basically over, but oh well...

IMO? I'm just saying that Elphaba is the BIGGER role, and is the main character, as she goes through the most growth. I have more to say, but people will hunt me down and shoot me.

Sounds like Carol and Harvey are the next hot ticket for 2005!

now that WHOLE ENTIRE last post i agree with bjivie -

(as far as not understanding me - it's because i can't type right on this laptop and i get frustrated)

Wow, feel the love in the thread.

Personally I'd pay good money to see Carol and Harvey, but I want them switched.

"I hate the Wicked people.

Let me ask you this, do you guys just post stupid questions for the sake of posting something, and to see the word Wicked somewhere in the thread title? In fact, does the word Wicked excite you? make you feel all warm and cozy? help you to sleep better at night?
"


LOL I love Wicked and this cracked me uppppp. For non psychotic fans such as myself, the constant posting is really annoying too.

" think you're thinking that I want GALINDA to play Elphaba. I want JENNIFER LAURA THOMPSON to play Elphaba."

I'm half asleep so that may account for me being a bit slow, all I have to say (for now) is....wtf?!
