Posted: 6/22/05 at 3:36pmUgh-- none of the clips have been working on my computer. I tryed taking off the pop-up blocker off and still no luck. Hopefully when I go to my father's house it'll work on his laptop *gets excited*

Posted: 6/22/05 at 3:36pmThat was awesome. Rosario is so cool and Adam looks great. I hope there are more videos like that in the future.

"maybe our mistakes are what make our fate. Without them, what would shape our lives? Perhaps if we never veered off course, we wouldn't fall in love, or have babies, or be who we are. After all, seasons change. So do cities. People come into your life and people go. But it's comforting to know the ones you love are always in your heart. And if you're very lucky, a plane ride away" -sex and the city

That was very entertaining, to say the least. Sort of like 'RENT on Speed.'
And, hoorah for Quicktime; now I can watch people instead of distorted blocks! Life is beautiful.

Posted: 6/22/05 at 4:39pmAdam's face at the end was too much for me to handle!
"The stage is where I live and come alive and act out all the things that go on in my life. It's not just what I do for a living, it's my shrink and my love affair. No one in my life has ever or ever will kiss me on the mouth like this lover called my relationship with my performance."

442namffug: I think the song was "Don't You Forget About Me", the theme song from "The Breakfast Club" (which gave me a rather nasty plotbunny I'll have to sort out).

3. "I love shrubs that are historical." -Johnny and The Sprites

5. "The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours." -The History Boys
6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

*wishes she could jam out with wilson and ro*

I am tempted to make an icon out of Adam's facial expression at the end.
... Huhahahahaha.

I just watched it, now that I'm home from work. And to reiterate: Rosario seems really cute. I think (assuming she can sing half-way decent) she'll really knock it out of the park!
Adam's look at the end. I just don't know. Maybe he was being snarky, but I just wanted to be like "oh get over yourself, biotch!" I love the boy, but he seems to have gotten a wee bit pompous...or at least he's sending that vibe out to me. I'm sure I'm reading too much into it, but alas, he's been rubbing me the wrong way lately.

I'm such a geek, but that actually was the highlight of my day (it's been a boring day). I was kind of bummed that we didn't get to actually see Angel whacking people with the baton, because drag queen fights are the best, but I guess I can wait until the movie comes out.
Rosario seems completely awesome. I don't really want to say that it's almost like she's been there since the beginning, since no one can take Daphne's place, but Rosario is the best step-child the family could have taken on.
I loved the comment about Adam's hair. I'm waiting for it to have it's own blog post:
"Yes, I know there's been lot's of discussion about my role in the movie, whether I'll over shadow the other actors, or if I'm really a part of Jonathan's true vision, but I feel that my contributions to this project will prove that I earned my place on top."
Love and curlers, Farrah

it's cool to see everyone accepting rosario...
i was afraid people (especially rentheads) were going to form a backlash against her because she was replacing daphne...

Posted: 6/22/05 at 5:42pmAm I the only one that thinks Adam looks horrible in this? He looks nothing like the Roger I saw downtown or when it moved uptown to Broadway.

He looks different, for sure, but that's what 9 years will do to you, and he's a smoker, so...
I think he still looks really f**king hot, but that's me.
(Chris Columbus wasn't looking that bad, either)
Love Rosario. Love, love, love.
And the spontaneous bursting into song? I feel good about that.

Posted: 6/22/05 at 6:04pmSee, I was thinking that perhaps he was asked to gain a little weight to make him look more youthful.

The song was as follows:
Artist: Billy idol
Song: Don't You (Forget About Me)
Album:
Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Watching ooh... yeah
Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing and you know it baby
Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out, out
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on
Slow change may pull us apart
I'll get us back together at heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
Will you stand above me?
Look my way and never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Would you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Watching ooh..... yeah
Don't you try and pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security
Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing and you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby
Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
(As you walk on by)
Or will you walk on by?
Will you walk away?
Come on - call my name
Come on - call my name
Will you call my name?
I say
La la la...
Will you walk on by?
Would you call my name?
As you walk on by
Would you call my name?
When you walk on by?
Oh yeah
Come on and call my name
As you walk on by
Hey baby call my name!
When you walk on by
Would you call my name
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah....

I've been waiting all day to see this! They're all so funny... that was really cute.
And honestly, Adam can be snarky, and he can be a bit of a bitch on occasion, but Anthony was behind that camera. I'd venture to guess he was kidding. And you know what? I love his hair. Even if it does upstage him a little.
I must have an avatar that comes from that video. Must.
I'll conga with you, Wax Lion. And I don't do much dancing, so consider it an honor!

Okay.
I HAD to change my avatar.
Sorry, WickedElphie. :)
