It is a repeat.
I can not help but laugh every time they talk about what a smash hit the show is.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 12:08amYeah...kinda fudging the truth by calling it a hit. (though a review quote did say it was a hit, so I guess they can say it's in print somewhere).

Posted: 7/26/09 at 12:12amIt's sad how John talks about trying to represent the musical rather than the movie, but the cakes really seem to have been modeled after the movie. It's like they didn't understand the challenge.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 12:15amWell the producers and creative team from the start said they weren't going for a carbon copy of the film but when you look at it it's literally the film on stage. The score is the only truly original part and it only has moments of greatness.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 12:18amI agree. I think Donkey would have been the best character to use to try and better represent the stage show, and she really just used the image of Donkey from the movie.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:06amBut how would one go about doing Donkey from the musical in cake?

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:12amPerhaps Daniels's upper body coming out of the box.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:14amI'm also confused as to how they wanted her to make Donkey from the show. A bust of Breaker in a Donkey suit would have been ridiculous.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:17amThey should have one of them do the fairy tale creatures.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:38amOr each of them do a song from the show.

Posted: 7/26/09 at 1:56amI don't think they were allowed to use any dialogue or music from the show because it wasn't played at all not even in the clips.
