Yay! Its coming out in November. Is anyone else excited? Rent Site.

No

I literally sang along with the preview.


My friends almost got up and moved to a different part of the theatre.

The only thing is, the movie is coming out in '05, and the words to that song... "Living in America, at the end of the millenium" don't make sense. Even so, they better not mess...

I SO want to see that movie...I haven't seen the play/musical/whatever, but when I went to see Bewitched I saw the previews, and I guess my mom has seen it, and we're going to see it when it comes out, like, forever from now. Why do they torture you by telling you about a movie you want to see when you have to wait four months to see it? Grr.
Hey, what's wrong with Joey? I was just talking to him on MSN, he's kinda cool.

I so want to see. I'll probably be grounded by then or something.

I'm psyched. Around last November I heard they were making a movie and I pretty much embarrassed myself gushing in front of a large number of people.

The protest scene is HUGE with TONS of extras and lots of rowdy violence, and yes, the audience does moo. (I plan on mooing in the audience.) And Maureen (the lovely Idina Menzel) does moon everyone in La Vie Boheme (and dons the infamous catsuit when they break back into the apartment). La Vie Boheme has to be the stand-out scene. It's just splendiferous.

Also, I heard that they put in some things that weren't in the stage production, such as a committment ceremony for Maureen & Joanne. Not sure if that's true. That'll be interesting. Take Me Or Leave Me was always one of my favorites from the soundtrack. Along with both La Vie Bohemes, Tango: Maureen, Out Tonight, and I'll Cover You (with its reprise.) The only thing I wasn't a huge fan of was the Sante Fe arc, but that's in the movie (unless it gets cut, but I heard they were filming in Sante Fe on location.)

I hope the premiere is in NYC. It should be. NYC is the heart of the production! If it is, oh-ho I will be making shirts and screaming like a pre-pubescent Backstreet Boys fan.

I guess we differ in our opinions. I think you are really Joey Dauben, but thats my opinion.

I knew that, but why not just do 2004? Do you guys really think people care if you LOOK a little smarter? Because I don't think it does, I think it actually looks pretty stupid. Not you guys, just the way it's sitting there.

Okay, FML, why do you have the roman numerics for 2004 in your signature? Because do you guys think it looks cooler that way? Oh God. And you guys just THINK you were the first coalition...
