This is a WICKED trailer that Im guessing will soon be shown on television. I think its a pretty good commercial but I only wish they would have shown clips of the show being performed. What do you guys think??

Posted: 10/24/04 at 12:57pmIt could just be a commerical for the show. Not that it needs much advertising.

Posted: 10/24/04 at 1:02pmi think they could have picked better music for it- like the intro chords or some of the defying gravity instrumental music or something more exciting and dramatic.

Posted: 10/24/04 at 1:04pmI think they were playing the "Gravity" background at the beginning. That'wa what I was talking about with the bass guitar and synth.

Posted: 10/24/04 at 1:06pmIt sounds as if they have attempted to make it sound a little more 'rock' with the bass and synth bit. Which I like incidentally. Perhaps to appeal to a difference audience than if they played actual music from the show?

Posted: 10/24/04 at 1:09pmActually the bass and synth in the beginning there is actually played in the hsow if you listen carefully. There is just usually *caugh**screaming**caugh** i mean singing on top of it.

Posted: 10/24/04 at 1:09pmI didn't like it in the fact that when looked at from a viewer's perspective, it doesn't make one want to see the show at all. I wouldn't think "hey, that showed me absolutely nothing except an extremely vague synopsis! Let's spend $100 a ticket to see that!"

Posted: 10/24/04 at 3:02pmYeah, it was kinda boring. It doesnt really matter much, as the show need NO advertising, right now anyway

Posted: 10/24/04 at 3:20pmThe commercial is pretty cool, but they really should have used clips from the show. The music they used was nice

Its not bad, just boring. Clips would make it great.
If you wanna see a good commercial, try this one from Rent (its been posted here before, so everyone may have seen it)

The other commercials on that site are good, too, click the Broadcast link on the left

Posted: 10/24/04 at 4:31pmI liked that wicked commercial. I don't know if it would do much for a person who's never heard of Wicked, though
Ways to annoy people:
Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. Then eat raw potatoes.
Ask people what gender they are,or
Disagree strongly with everything anybody says:)
