BFS!!!!
Damn, now what are we gonna do?
"If we don't live happily ever after at least we survive until the end of the week!" -Kermit the frog "I need the money... it costs a lot to look this cheap!" -Dolly P. "Oh please, Over at 'Gypsy' Patti LuPone hasn't even alienated her first daughter yet!" Mary Testa in "Xanadu" "...Like a drunk Chita Rivera!" Robin de Jesus in "In the Heights"
"B*tch, I don't know your life." -Xanadu After that if he still doesn't understand why you were uncomfortable and are now infuriated, kick him again but this time with Jazz Hands!!! -KillerTofu
You're a class act NiteOwl!
What is with all the kids being proud of their aggressive ignorance nowadays?
I don't think so. Like Wicked needs to make more money than it already is getting.
Shows usually film movies when they're not doing well. Not all the time, but usually.
It's strange isn't it? I know sooo many ignorent kids my age. They think they know everything. at least I know I don't know everything.

NiteOwl, execpt for Phantom, they are all doing bad.
They are?!!!
Back it up. Show me the figures. In dollars and cents.
I'm a stickler for cold, hard facts.
Impress me.
PM from NiteOwl"yeah, i was just joking.
i don't have anything against anyone here.
it was all for laughs."
hahahahahahahahahahaha someone is backpedaling
Go to playbill.com and look at the figures from the the last couple of years and now and you'll see the decline.

i was not back pedalling. i was being honest.
which is more than i can say for most of you.
at least i don't stoop to having to re-post private messages.
which says alot about the likes of you.
and neddyfrank you know what you can do to yourself, since no one else will.
Okay, here are the cold hard facts.
Rent:
Before the movie - 2003
https://www.broadwayworld.com/grossesshow.cfm?show=RENT&year=2003
After the movie - 2006
https://www.broadwayworld.com/grossesshow.cfm?show=RENT&year=2006
Notice the weeks just after the movie was released. A significant rise, don't you think?
Phantom:
Before the movie - 2003
https://www.broadwayworld.com/grossesshow.cfm?show=THE%20PHANTOM%20OF%20THE%20OPERA&year=2003
After the movie - 2005
https://www.broadwayworld.com/grossesshow.cfm?show=THE%20PHANTOM%20OF%20THE%20OPERA&year=2005
Once again, there is not going to be a Wicked movie anytime soon.
Wow let's not talk about who is stooping to lower levels with every post!
Thank you Bobby.
At least someone can back up their statements.
Which is more than I can say for the rest of you.
Oh, and by the way, I really could care less if Wicked EVER makes it to the big screen.
I don't care for the show at all.
Need further proof?
Just look at the list of My Favorite Shows in my profile...it doesn't even rate...
Boradwaygirl2631,
Everyone knows you're just the epitome of class and elegance now don't they?
This is hilarious. I've never seen some dumb broad give so many lame attacks in one thread.
* anxiously awaits his attack*
Rent is....Wicked is most definitely not.
I would never attack someone who has such a beautiful avatar of Miss Donna McKechnie in "Follies" ljay.
But, just to correct you on two points.
1. I'm not dumb
2. I'm not a broad
Thank you Bobby.
You're welcome. But note this does not qualify for all Broadway shows with movies. These are just the ones you mentioned. If you want you can compare other stats for various shows, its listed under the Broadway grosses and goes back pretty far.
that sounds interesting.
i'll do that.
thanks again for providing the info.
