These cartoon accents are hilarious. Yikes! They rival Lady Gaga’s “is it Italian? Is it Russian?” accent in HOUSE OF GUCCI. Hay, Dios mío!

I think the accents are good.

I think the accents aren't too bad, it's not even close to the cartoonishness of House of Gucci. It was a treat seeing a bit more of the "Dance at the Gym" and "America" numbers which are going to be stunning on the big screen.

I was wondering how they were gonna do the transition to the Dance at the Gym.

So what was this exclusive featurette that was to air during the AMAs a few night’s ago? Zero mention of it here.

Why do you care? It’s only going to contain content you’ve already seen before, right? Why waste your precious time with it.

It was never a featurette. Not sure where you got that from. It was an exclusive special look, which is the one minute trailer we got on Sunday.

If anyone in the NYC area is interested WSS (1961) will screen this Sunday at the Regal Union Square and Regal Battery Park 11 in Manhattan as well as the Regal Court Street 12 in Brooklyn. Showtimes are 3 pm and 7 pm at all venues.
Also, checked my December TCM schedule, and just as I suspected TCM is airing it on December 10th @ 8 pm - the very day Spielberg's version hits theaters.

A new article with an interview from Spielberg and a video which contains brief glimpses of "Jet Song", "A Boy Like That/I Have a Love" and "One Hand, One Heart" which I can tell you sounds GLORIOUS!

Yes! I can see The View, GMA, Tamron Hall, and Jimmy Kimmel having them (all Disney talk/news shows basically). Excited to see which shows will book them.

The video is now on YouTube, Rachel and Ansel sound so beautiful on "One Hand, One Heart" and it was apparently done live on set.
