Posted: 11/5/04 at 1:54amI think that they should scrap the score and start from scratch.

Posted: 11/5/04 at 1:55amI think the movie should be an homage to such greats as Webber and Schwartz.

But Really. If One Song Glory isnt in it, What You Own, La Vie Boheme, or Seasons of Love isnt in it, It wouldnt be the same

Posted: 11/5/04 at 2:13amWell. Then. It wouldn't be Rent, and they may just call it "Lease". :)

Posted: 11/5/04 at 2:17am*dumbfounded* huh? It would still be RENT. Of course it wouldn't be "Rent" as in "like the stage version"

How about sticking Defying Gravity right at the end? Nothing could make the finale much more cheesy anyway . . .

Nice suggestion Eastwickian! Would throw off some people...hehe.
I still think Contact can be done, without pushing the R rating over the edge....

RENT, LMC, OSG, AD, HNY, WYO, ICY, ICY:R, LVB, LVB B, TMOLM, GL, YE..... Ok, all of them!
And "Open Road" would rock in the movie! That's one of the songs from the NYTW production that I really enjoyed.

Read the Chbosky screenplay where they had Roger listening to Open Road whenever he goes to Santa Fe...but cried when they put What You Own in the credits. I think the Open Road bit would be kick-ass too.
But thankfully Anthony posted on here that WYO wasn't going to be over the credits, but done in the movie. Making me one very happy Rent-head. ^^
#19re: What songs do you really want in the rent movie
Posted: 11/5/04 at 12:04pmI would really miss Take me or leave me, Glory (but its not RENT without Glory!), La Vie Boheme, I'll cover you (Reprise) and Another Day, in addition to Life support. At least its pretty much definite that Seasons of love will remain, that song is unremovable. It'd be like making the Phantom movie without Music of the night.
#20re: What songs do you really want in the rent movie
Posted: 11/5/04 at 12:05pmOh who am I kidding, NO SONG is disposable!! Jonathan Larson never wrote a song that didn't mean anything. But, I have to say, if anything has to be cut, I wouldn't cry if Santa Fe and We're Okay were left out. Especially if other amazing songs like Open Road are included!! But if ANY other song isn't in the movie, I will be highly upset. I read the Chbosky screenplay, and while I enjoyed it, it bothered me that so many of Mark's lines were given to Maureen, and that there was NO Light My Candle. It was a good start, but i'm glad Columbus is coming up with his own script.

Posted: 11/5/04 at 12:11pmAll of them! Or, It would be fine without We're Okay

Posted: 11/5/04 at 2:12pmYeah, I could live without We're Okay. It's not really crucial to the show, if you ask me.
