Except for the part where Marc Kudisch felt up every male cast member.

now now, minions of the "wicked is makes moose murders look like shakespeare" thread, we must limit our attacks to the show itself. even though those who find their lives defined by women in greenface will attack the messengers rather than the message, we here will stay doggedly on topic and attack just what we find so horrid about "the sin at the gershwin." just happily ignore the bouncing monkeys my lizardoids (oops sorry, wrong url). we'll not let their negativity towards our cause spoil the fun.

Wicked's ensemble is the equivalent of jamming a fork in my ear or banging my head against a glass wall. That and it's horribly put together.

Would my favorite saying, "My ears are bleeding!!!!!" be an appropriate gauge of their talent?

(Note: I have not actually heard the Wicked ensemble other than on the cast recording, therefore I cannot judge their onstage performance. I merely wanted to say "My ears are bleeding!!!!" in a post.)

if anyone could only convince the other half of the board to put all of the wicked praise into one thread, THEN we would really have something!

ny, we shall lead by example here. eventually they'll realize that by clogging up the entire board with mindless posts it actually means that less people see their posts as most folks avoid puerile threads and focus on the meat of the board (that's called a double entendre for our less literate folks...look it up). but fear not, ny we shall overcome!

it only really started to bother me after the tony awards...

ah well. im tempted to start a "big fat wicked thread", but i doubt they'd do anything but post (on other threads) about how rude that is.

nys, that's why we're here, to allow those who share our despisement of the show and the hoopla that surrounds it to vent our spleens in the hopes of a better tomorrow. but let's keep focussd on the show. if we ignore the minions of glinda we shall marginalize them and eventually take back the board.

on topic: couldn't they have at least had one monkey that flew instead of bounced? i mean please, it just loses something, "bounce, my bouncing monkeys."

ohmygodOhMyGodOHMYGODOHMYGODOHMYGOD!!!!!!!THE SHEET MUSIC IS IN!!!Now thousands of hopefull and sometimes even working actresses will start singing this dreadfull crap at every frigging drop of the (pointed)hat! YIKES, CRIKEY AND HARUMPH! I cannot imagine being a casting person and having to listen to For Good, Popular, and Defying Gravity hundreds of times in a day!


"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

look at the bright side, though, redhot, the mass usage of these songs will simplify the casting director's job markedly.

with threads dropping like flies, let's please all take a moment to shamelessly flatter our wise, witty and handsome board gods rob and craig. we are not worthy.

just because you are jelous that Wicked is more sucessful than Avenue Q does not give you the right to bad mouth it. This is a great show and if you were to just give it a chance maybe you could see that. But oh yeah, you probably wont get tickets to it to prove your point because it is sold out un like your crappy puppet fest!

good god just let them have this one thread where they can say what they want! If they don't like it i respect their opinion and it's a great idea to keep it all under one post

having seen wicked already twice (i didn't get enough pain the first time through), and having given it more than the benefit of the doubt, i can say that the show was abysmal. now i do have some kind words for the set which rocked. those words are: it rocked. the show on the other hand, did not, which is what this thread is all about.

It sums up everything that this thread is a parody of.

Wicked is not perfect, but it is not a bad show. The obsessed Wicked fans are the ones making Wicked lose the amount of fans it had.

I thought its lack of substance and reliance on spectacle was making it lose the amount of fans it had.

although, vish, ya gotta admit that acceptance speech was a bit much. i mean, mentioning another show while not mentioning your fellow collaborators? tsk, tsk. but hey, that's eugene.

on topic: wicked is an abhorrent abomination of all that is good about broadway and must be destroyed at all costs using whatever means necessary. release the krakon.

How has being opposed to all of this 'Wicked' hyperventilating automagically make you a psychofan of 'Avenue Q'?

I'm a fan of both shows, for the record. (For totally opposite reasons... Wicked for the design, and Q for the writing)

FOR GOD'S SAKE PEOPLE. GET A SENSE OF HUMOR ABOUT IT. REALIZE THAT 30 POSTS ABOUT WICKED WILL RESULT IN A BACKLASH. YOU REALLY LOOK SILLY WHEN YOU POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS:

"But oh yeah, you probably wont get tickets to it to prove your point because it is sold out un like your crappy puppet fest! "

G-DAMN this is starting to frustrate me.
