But he looks so hot now! Don't worry, he looks amazing. Have you seen the New York pictures?

Well if they are setting the piece in the late 80s, the plaid pants/spiked bleached hair wouldn't be appropriate. That look was really a 90s - Nirvana kind of thing.

I've only seen Rent once, but wasn't the whole electronics store thing, Crazy Eddie's, not The Wiz?
That's kind of disappointing because when I saw the bway show with my old Chicago college roommate, she couldn't get the reference, and me as a proud lifelong New Yorker got to explain it to her. But the Wiz, so generic?

Maybe it's a rights issue. But is that's all we have to worry about, the movie is in great shape!

As a non new yorker, what does Crazy Eddies mean? Or is it a real store? Just wondering.

It was a real store, with loud, obnoxious ads ("with prices that are INSANE!!!), and I'm sure everyone who heard them remembers.

Thanks so much!! We were on the set for 11 1/2 hours (6pm-5:30am) but it was so much fun and TOTALLY worth it... :) Also, just a little side note, I think Anthony Rapp said the plaid pants aren't in the movie because it just doesn't look right or isn't pleasing to the eye on screen...I don't know, something like that!! Sorry if someone already posted that...check it out on the "Welcome, Anthony Rapp" thread...
