Works for me Em, you know I'm always awake then.
Granted I'm not an actor...besides the point.

Honestly, BwayGirl, from the view you described what you imagine what Rent should look like, I really don't buy it. I think it is only your opinion about what Rent should look like. I think Chris Columbus did a far better job. It is always easy to criticize other's work.
And I think Michael Bennett is really unfair to Anthony Rapp.

Guys, there are other threads to discuss the Rent movie.
We were happy here for a few pages when it was nothing about Rent (Shameless, SP, Skittles, and others).
See, RENT = UNHAPPY THREADS

Whenever he's mentioned? Have you bothered reading the "Welcome Anthony Rapp" thread? If he posted every time he was mentioned, he'd have a post count rivaling Emcee's (sorry Em!).
BSo, what does your sexuality have to do with Anthony posting? Exactly what ARE you doing?

Hi Anthony,
You rock! Do not let those people get to you. I do not think people who hate Rent are misguided souls who would just come to our side, if we just try a lot. I understand the criticisms of the movie. I agree with a few of them even. However, it would be really cool if people realized that these are real people who you are posting to. As Rent itself mentioned, we are living in an isolating age. It is wonderful that we can communicate with people from all over the world effortlessly. For me as a person with a speech disability, the Internet has been a complete godsend. I can even write on a message board to my favorite Broadway star:) However, I think at times it is hard for folks to remember that there are faces behind the typed words. And of course you are going to defend a movie that I can tell you absolutely loved to make of a musical that holds an incredibly sacred place in your heart. And I bet 10 years from now, it will still be incredibly special to you.
So let's all be nice to each other, and discuss issues, but don't insult people. I hope this isn't to rambling.
Take Care,
Sascha

Yes, this is actually the "no talking about Rent, Rent thread".

sanda, I'm confused as to what you are referring to. When did I describe what Rent should "look like"?
BSO, we're talking on THIS thread. The thread happens to be about Rent. You're the one who's off-tpoic. Why are you reading if you don't want to discuss Rent?

Posted: 12/13/05 at 9:53pmIn your original Rent movie review. I didn't respond because I think everyone is entitled to his own opinion. But since I met you here, I think I should let you know my feeling.
#288RENT cast doesn't know how to darn socks!
Posted: 12/13/05 at 9:54pmWell, that's true skittles but I don't think many people in the "Welcome Anthony Rapp" thread are doing much harsh talking about Mr. Rapp or his career mishaps ("Sorry Anthony about THE LITTLE PRINCE,!"). That's a very ass-kissy thread.

The critics of bww are determined to ruin our fun. So, I'm gonna go watch me some SVU.
BSo, FYI, Shameless is a chica. Good night. :)

Posted: 12/13/05 at 9:56pmI think neither ass-kissing nor ass-kicking-because-u-r-celebrity is objective or wise.

sanda, I just dug up that review, and I'm not sure I see exactly where I ever said what the film should "look like."
BSO, I'm only irritable when people are posting off topic on a Rent thread and they think I--the one who's on topic--should go away, or when people who don't know squat about Idina Menzel's vocal technique proclaim that she screams and she will lose her voice in a few years because of it. It's like a native Spanish speaker telling an English person that his grammar and syntax are terrible. But I digress...

I know its off topic but OMG I HATE when people say that, reguardless of whether they think they know what they are talking about. I just had to say that, it makes me so upset.

It's "are" terrible.

Posted: 12/13/05 at 10:03pmBroadwayGirl, the OT-nature of this thread was an attempt to defuse the situation with silliness. It wasn't to insult anyone that was trying to discuss the topic, we were just trying to calm down.

Exactly as OS just said.
BroadwayGirl, I thought your post on the problems with the film was rational and not trying to assault the opinions of others.
Someone may have told you to "go away" they were of course out of line.
People who like the movie and or like Rapp are not necessarily Ass-Kissing Dame, that is whole the problem here, lumping everyone together and being a jerk is not helpful or called for.
I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.
