So this is actually happening, huh? I can already see the set design and the puppet (and probably the lighting) getting praised. I can also see that the show will probably flop too. Hopefully, it doesn't.

I don't really know how to feel about this.... 

HELLO PEOPLE! :D

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

^ That's what has me confused by this news. Like when was the thread about that made? I remember responding to it with the song Jack Black sang on SNL. I didn't think it was that long ago.

All the press materials from months ago when the show announced intentions to open fall 2018 mentioned that JRB and Norman had been replaced: http://www.playbill.com/article/king-kong-musical-will-conquer-broadway-in-2018-harry-potter-scribe-joins-creative-team

And before them it was Craig Lucas on book and Marius de Vries doing the entire score:

This is like that ridiculous Betty Boop project that has been through untold creative teams. But I'm sure (sarcasm alert) that they've got the winning team this time around...

OOOhhh, I get to be "that guy."

The giant gorilla movie with The Rock is Rampage, based on the 80s arcade game of the same name. Other than featuring a giant gorilla (and potentially giant Lizard and Wolf creatures) it has nothing to do with King Kong.

They're making a movie about that?! I used to play that all the time at the arcade.

Rampage was my go to arcade game at Chuck'E'Cheese back in the day, until the X-Men game arrived.

I’m not surprised. She went back to London after Saigon and I think she’s basically there to stay. Her close friends and husband are all Londoners.
