"And how dare you show any cast members disrespect...how dare you! They have all made huge contributions to the theater community. To help keep it alive, to keep the fans happy, and to keep us able to be here discussion the wonderful world of Broadway! You may not like what they have done or you may think that they are not as talented as others do, but show them your respect. They deserve as does anyone who respects the craft."

Actors are people. Not gods. They are not owed any more respect then they show others. It has nothing to do with talent or keeping fans happy or the wonderful world of Broadway. It's about integrity.

"OS, I was asking that same question earlier."

I know. You were asking it to me RENT cast doesn't know how to darn socks!

BSo is just jealous because he hasn't been able to kiss Idina's naked a$$ on the big screen.

"Can I just ask what the age range is here? I want to post responsively."

When has that ever stopped you?

No actor in Rent has made a huge contribution to theatre. A huge contribution would be being so talented that composer are writing shows for you - like Ethel Merman.

Yes, and Anthony has been nothing but respectful.

Dame, I'm an old fogey.
Most of the others I have no idea about.

MB, I totally agree about that. What is the "wonderful world of Broadway?" I have not seen Anthony be disrespectful though, so I can't really understand the anger against him. I generally think you are informed and enjoy your posts.


I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

I, in no way, was disrespecting Anthony. And to my knowledge, he hasn't disrespected me.

Just y'all think these Rent actors or some sort of Gods. It's OK to be a fan of their talents, but some of you go too far.

Your statements have become hyperboles -

I find that statement very obnoxious and not amusing at all. I would never kiss someone's ass...that's where the poop comes from.

LOL

If I were to start a "No talking about Rent" thread, it would be moved to the OT board, right?

Thank you OS!

But let this be a lesson - if someone messes - anthony included - I will not be pleased.

Speaking of the old "talking about particular people people on very 'general' terms" thing...

Anyone here still dwelling on arguments (specifically about whether celebrities should join heated message board arguments about their own work) from early November or way before then needs to get over it. You (plural?) are the ONLY one here who still cares about that issue! LOL. NO ONE is really intimidated by Anthony Rapp's presence now that the film has been out for a while and we've all spoken our two cents. No one but you still has a chip on their shoulder over that. Get over it. He and I have 'shaken hands' and agreed to disagree. Frankly, I'm interested in hearing him share details about whatever projects he's doing post-Rent - assuming that he is not taking a break from acting/writing.

Anthony, who I know means well, is combative with anyone who criticies his work or RENT. I have found many of his messages - both private and public to be slightly offensive in response to my opinions, yes.

He didn't even write RENT.

::rolls eyes::

It's not like Idina bitches out everyone who hates Wicked.

She'd have an easier time personally calling all her fans at home.

Perhaps the being offensive goes both ways.

Not to start a fight or insinuate anything, but be fair. I don't think he'd *be* offensive if not previously offended.

I think the point is, we are all human.

If one of us can be offensive first, so can he.

(Not saying he was - since I don't read most of his posts.)

I have never talked to the man or read anything the man has posted till today. And to tell you the truth.. I think the people working around Anthonys career are doing him a disservice by not encouraging him NOT to post publicly on the board. For many, many reasons.

I have not seen them, and so have no clue, I only saw how it looked in this particular thread. It is unfortunate we can't all appreciate the insight each person bring and be civil. If Anthony is incapable of that, that is a problem. If he was provoked, by someone (MB or someone else) and felt the need to become defensive, that is seperate issue.
He is no better or worse than the rest of us, but he does have a close association with RENT, again I can see being defensive about it, even though I do not agree that that is a good thing.


I stand corrected, you are as vapid as they say.

Well, fantabulous, we'll never know since people report PMs they receive from him.

I don't get why he bothers with people who may not be fans of his or RENT - when he has a loyal fan base.
