RENT Movie Site updates

http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/rent/

A week or so ago "Links" was added which links to the Rent Broadway site as well as Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS -- which I thought was a really, really great thing to do. It also grounds this production in the theatre world linking to a charity intimately identified with Broadway.

Now they've added "Web Ring": "Check out these Rent-related websites created by Rent fans like you. Do you have a site that you think is worthy? Click "ADD MY SITE" below to find out how to get a Rent Web Ring Player for your site!" You can view by things like Music, Theatre, Cast Members, Rent Sites, etc. So, link away, people!

I continue to be amazed at how this website is really geared toward current fans. These kinds of updates seem entirely unnecessary...yet very cool :)

Imagine the newbies who get introduced to RENT for the first time in a movie theatre -- they'll be so thrilled to find all this great info in one place as well as blogs from the actors!

I am addicted to the trailer... it makes me so happy.

I LOVE the trailer! It's great on just on a computer but seeing it on a movie theater screen definitely gave me chills! I can't wait for the movie! I've never actually seen the show, but I've been a fan of the OBCR for quite some time (I'm listening to La Vie Boheme as I type this)! The movie is such an awesome opportunity to see so much of the OBC, especially for those of us who weren't lucky enough to catch it live!

Go watch Betwitched if you want to see the RENT movie trailer on the big screen... Cheno is in it too, if that's a plus for you. I watch the trailer a couple of times a day, and I still can't believe that RENT is officially a movie! I am so excited that I will be able to see RENT with so many OBC done the right way.

The role suited her so well... and I thought she was the greatest part of the movie. Of course, I may be a little biased but I went to see Bewitched in the first place because of Cheno, otherwise I wouldn't have seen it. I loved the RENT preview, I was so exhiliarted & excited before the movie even started, but not for the movie but for RENT. I'm glad I didnt' get a notice on that because I too squealed in delight once the preview started.

I think they need to make a kind of rehab for the people like us who are addicted to the RENT trailer. :-P It's probably one of the very rare things that I could watch countless times without getting the least bit tired of it.

And yeah I love how they've got so much stuff for the fans already. Whenever I see a trailer for a new movie that I want to see, I'm usually disappointed to find very little info about said movie and the website often only has the trailer and maybe some cast bios until around a month before the release of the film. So I think its great that they are providing fans both new and veteran with so much info, so far in advance of the actual movie release.

cudramacat: Before spending the money to see a movie again just for the trailer, call the theater and ask. This is what I did and they told me all the movies it was showing in front of and which prints. This way I knew I was guaranteed to see it.
