The Distinctive Baritone said: "I didn’t know Nicholas Christopher is only 34. Huh. Anyway, I love SRS, but 57 is definitely too old for the part. Ellen Greene did it in a concert version, and having originated in the role and played it in the movie, it was kind of a special event. Rob McClure was also a great Seymour I’m sure, but with the whole “Mushnik and Son” subplot, a 42 year old seems a bit of a stretch.."

You would not assume Sher

Carol Halstead understudies both Sharon and Robyn."


In cases like this, a standby is hired only because AEA requires it. They will typically cancel a performance if the star is unable to go on. Years ago I worked with the guy who was the standby for Brian Dennehy in Death of a Salesman at T

AEA AGMA SM said: "In 1977 the first Star Wars movie was only called Star Wars. The “Episode IV: A New Hope” wasn’t added to the opening scrawl until the 1981 re-release after Empire Strikes Back was released"

Yeah, but Empire was known as Episode V with no warning on its release in 1980. That's what they're getting at, that you learned Star Wars was 'Episode IV' when you sat down for 'Episode V' and also that there was 3

Because that's licensing a product and POTO is in the public domain? They clearly intend for this to be something they merchandise and having a third party (scholastic) makes that difficult.&

Broadway Flash said: "Well whatever it is, the whole ticketing situation on broadway is nonsense. Theres literally no point in buying tickets in advance when these things just pop up on tdf. The incentives are all wrong."

Sounds like SOMEONE doesn't qualify for TDF and is butt hurt about it...

Like... TDF tickets aren't going up (mostly) for the shows that are selling out. If you bought tickets early and got burned by that when they ended up ha

I don't know how many times it needs to be said, but calling something "Part 1/Part 2" in marketing hurts viewership. Hollywood has steered away from referring to things as such for almost a decade now. The people in middle America who will make up the bulk of the audience, did not know this movie was going to exist before trailers and marketing began so they do not know that it was announced as two movies.

Going back to Dune in fact, yes it wasn't greenlit for part 2

Annie Get Your Gun is a product of its time and I feel like people understand that? The shooting in the show is not in anyway irresponsible. It's literally just target shooting. Something that occurs at every county fair in the country, it's done at the Olympics, there's even a gun range on 20th St. 

I think people are able to discern Guns as used in AGYG versus School Shootings. I think the issue is that people probably don't really have a hunger for the show outs

In addttion to its nearly $1.1 BILLION gross, it got 11 Oscar noms and 11 BAFTA noms; both absolutely bonkers for a "comic book movie" -- especially DC -- andbeyond the far more well reviewed and well loved Dar
