Posted: 9/27/06 at 12:03amthanks for the link...holy crap, i can't believe its all true. I mean, i loved the first movie---but movies into musicals, i guess it's time for broadway to appeal to the masses. i'm getting tickets just to see--who knows? maybe it'll be another wedding singer. entertaining, and delightfulll...but not really a "perfect" specimen of a musical---do you think that's where broadway is headed? movie stars, and musical versions of box-office hits?

Posted: 9/27/06 at 12:05amHeaded? Honey, we've been there for a while now. And it's quite harmful to Broadway indeed. See the song "An Original Musical" in [title of show] for further clarification.

Posted: 9/27/06 at 2:20amway to go jimnysf --- you've managed to say absolutley nothing about the topic. Just the use of a word. Don't you have ANYTHING to say about broadway being just another tool of the movie business? how many broadway shows are actually "original"?

Posted: 9/27/06 at 3:09am"imparticulars", I've already commented in several other threads about "Legally Blonde", "Wedding Singer", "High Fidelity", "Happy Days", "Cry Baby", just to name a few. I don't like the trend either.
