The Producers *NEW US TRAILER here* — Page 2

Oh boy oh boy oh boy!
Can't wait to see it.
Looks soooo much like the stage version!

Tesse, I totally agree with you. I think either they lowered it a key, or it just sounds odd. It definitley sounded flat to my semi-trained ear.

Ahh! It's brilliant. Still saddened that the release was pushed back (hopefully Baltimore is worthy enough of the 12/25 release) but this is one fantastic trailer!

Woo Hoo! Producers!! ^__^

As a big Gary Beach fan, I also would've like to have seen more of him (and Roger Bart) although the shot of him as Hitler is wonderful.

My only slight consolation is that after the movie opens, Mr. Beach will finally get some recognition from the average Joe. It'll make it so much easier when I start raving about his talents and people actually know who he is. I'm sure the same will happen for Roger Bart, although he's already a more familiar name thanks to Desperate Housewives.

Cannot wait for this movie!

First off, I have a feeling this is going to be one of the biggest box-office hits of the year. I'm hardly ever wrong.

Ok, that's a lie, but still... :)

And for those of you who are wondering, due to the wonders of having perfect pitch (that's another discussion for another board), YES, Uma's song has been lowered to another key. In the Broadway stage version, the song begins and ends in the key of F# Major, or Gb major (same key, different names). When they show the clip of Uma singing, she is only belting up to a B flat on her line "When you GOT IT......" - this means that the song will be in the key of Eb major, and end in the key of Eb major, which is a full step and 1/2 down from the original key. Not a major leap, but a significant one.

I think it's great Uma did her own singing and dancing - so what if she's not a professional Broadway belter? It takes guts and courage to do that, and I am sure she will MORE than be adequate and delightful for the movie. She looks wonderful, sounds wonderful, and now that I have answered the deep meaning behind the friggin' key of this song, we can all put this topic to rest.

JUST ENJOY THE MOVIE!!!!!!!

I loved it!

I am very excited about this movie. Love Lane, love Uma. Can't wait.

I like it! It looks exactly like the stage version in some parts, which I guess if I stick to my Rent "I want it to do justice" guns, should be a good thing. I didn't know until I watched the trailer that Susan Stroman directed! Way to be out of the loop.

Actually, JasonM12480, it's two full steps lower than the original key. At that point of the song, there's a key change from F# (or Gb) to G. Haha, I too have perfect pitch, yay!

Wait...it's rated PG-13?

Huh!?

"...as a matter of fact, we may have SEVERAL positions for you".

Gee, Daddy, what does THAT mean?
