I see someone like Jim Brochu as Hook. Christian Borle is just distracting with his arms exposed... Let's hope whatever musical they do next year, he isn't in it.
I think part of the problem is you cannot capture the magic of theater on film. It's a different medium and maybe we should stop trying to merge them.
(WTF was that? HOOK crossing the Delaware????)
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?

I was really looking forward to this, but the whole thing just seems off. The pacing is so ungodly slow. It really pales in comparison to last years The Sound of Music. The sets are beautiful, the actors (save for Walken) seem to be trying their best, but it just is not coming together.
