I just found this link... it's interesting. Anyway, call me crazy, but is that NORBERT as Roger? He looks great!

I was going to say something about how this commercial "perfectly captures" the appropriate mood for the movie. But, I'm not sure if the show is ever quite as somber in tone as the beginning of the commercial suggests.

I saw that a while back and have always thought that if they could shoot the movie like that, it could turn out really good. *crosses fingers* I wonder if Columbus has seen this yet...

Emcee- that's the one I tried to give you a link to and it didn't work! Yay- you've finally seen it!

There's something about that commercial that gives me the chills. The first time I saw it awhile ago I had to watch it over and over- it was addictive!

I actually thought that commercial was kinda lame... but that's just me. The voice was kinda irritating.

lol, I didn't really mind it, though I definitely felt like I was watching a movie commercial. I'd love for the movie to have that feeling to it... but I'm afraid I'll be terribly disappointed.

We had that commercial here in Vegas! Norbert looks handsome. Hahaha.

They used that commercial for the national tour (when it came early this year). When i first saw it i thought it was a new movie...the commerical is the tone the movie should be.

That commercial gave me chills, and at first, I thought it WAS for the movie. *sigh*

I remember that commercial.
Personal opinion:I think that's how the movie trailer should feel.
It is Norbert

Is this commercial being used for the current N. American tour? I can't load the clip on this computer but I just saw a cool one It looks like one on TV (in Vancouver) a few days ago.

By the way, for anyone in the know, does the official new cast start in Portland on Aug 10? (Insomniak, I saw some day I'll join compulsive bowlers, once they stop scaring me!)

If the movie is ANYTHING like this, it will be amazing.

"(Insomniak, I saw some day I'll join compulsive bowlers, once they stop scaring me!)"

Wha? I did not get that... Can you rephrase?

We're not that bad... I will be nice to you, Tiff. The only time newbies are flamed is if they post something stupid like another movie rant.

I'm at CB, but I've only posted once. I guess I'm not scared, I just don't like posting there. It's fun to read though. All the newb-flaming is HILARIOUS.

But back on topic...

Oh yes- CB is hilarious to read (I've probably posted only 100 times over the past 2 years). It has good reads... anyway...

We should all contact Columbus and make him watch that and make his movie look as great as that commercial was.

You're not lame. You're concerned for the well being of the RENT movie.
