It's interesting that he makes such a pompous statement about The Wedding Singer, especially since sales have been climbing, and the show is doing very well this week in particular. He should be the poster child for how to insert-foot-in-mouth.
I have to agree that Riedel is pretty much the most inconsistent, wrong theatre columnist there is. Ben Brantley may be mean, but at least he is usually correct, and reasonable.
ok im sorry if i really havent listened or heard really anythinng about the wedding singer before the soundtrack came out. so then the soundtrack came out so i listened to it and i was impressed.
