Does anyone know if there is a new RENT book in the works? I think they should do a stage to film behind the scenes one, similar to Broadway book. I think Anthony should pen it.
Just my 2 cents.

I'm looking forward to the Behind The Scenes features on the DVD more than anything. You KNOW that is there's gonna be some amazing stuff.

Posted: 7/3/05 at 3:49pmThey're probably gonna have the RENT blog vidoes on the behind the scenes footage.

Posted: 7/3/05 at 4:22pmI really hope they do that. Like how Lord of the Rings has all those behind the scenes books. OK so RENT isn't quite as large scale as LotR but you get the idea. I'd buy it in a second if they published a new RENT book.

Posted: 7/3/05 at 4:32pmI could care less about a new book or the DVD features, I just hope the movie is quality and artistic. I'm afraid it's trying to be too mass-appealing and it's going to ruin the movie. The trailer makes it look like a romantic comedy.

"The trailer makes it look like a romantic comedy."
Really? I disagree. It's going to be different from the stage show but I don't think the directors would or could change it that much.

Posted: 7/3/05 at 8:42pmI don't think the teaser makes it look like a romantic comedy. I saw the trailer in theaters today and my just said it looks good. Besides, that one was only a teaser.

Posted: 7/3/05 at 8:49pmPlus the teaser is meant to attract a different audience. They KNOW that all the theatre Rent fans are going to come and see it no matter how it looks in the teaser (which I think is good, and not too romantic comedyish). The teaser is meant to attract the (hopefully) millions of other people who *gasp, I know* may not have heard of Rent at all. So have hope!
