But it was an Original BROADWAY musical..... i mean we could be like Legally Blonde is a revival because it was already a movie...
hence why it is international Broadway data base....
Assassins was the same way. It was stupid for them to be considered revivals because they never had the chance to win Best Musical.

Movies are released on a worldwide basis, hence the interest in its data base and message boards makes IMDB a commercially viable information service. Have you ever seen the message boards when a major blockbuster is about to be released - the message board screen refreshes every few seconds for just one particular movie!
