I lurve me some Stark Sands. Count me as part of the crowd that's underwhelmed with the lack of new musicals out this season. The commercial success of 'The Addams Family' baffles me... but I guess that's show business. If Nathan Lane pulls this win out, I'll be taking my showtune-tappin' feet home. <br /><br />Also, thanks Nat for the linky link referral. :)Peter Chanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08703260082728889704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-3460811657806110542010-05-02T16:14:27.580-04:002010-05-02T16:14:27.580-04:00Ishmael -- sometimes while scouring the 250 plus s...Ishmael -- sometimes while scouring the 250 plus sites and blogs i peruse to stay on top of news and linkable stuff... I didn't see this first picture from "London Boulevard". I'd love to see it.<br /><br />Maria -- thanks for sharing. I was curious about how this could happen exactly. Seemed like such a slam dunk on paper.<br /><br />James T -- i'm not totally pessimistic about the movie (I think Branagh might be a great choice for it, even considering his trouble spots) but I always thought that Thor was a stupid superhero. I mean I *love* mythological stuff but combining mythology with traditional superheroes and secret identity stuff never sat well with me. Seems like an uncomfortable graft.NATHANIEL Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11597109147678235399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-8980419237993096872010-05-02T15:51:51.482-04:002010-05-02T15:51:51.482-04:00I'm baffled by what the Tony voters are going ...I'm baffled by what the Tony voters are going to do with the weak musical field. I really hope Sherie Rene Scott can pull enough the show must go on good will ala Christina Applegate to get Everday Rapture in for Musical/Book/Actress. Good will means a lot on Broadway and Scot has the benefit of good reviews and saving the Roundabout season rather than a broken leg in out of town try-outs and financial backers pulling out. The field is so weak, Scott is close to a lock for actress (especially since Cook is now winning Featured over Lansbury really scorching the Tony records). I hope they find room for Motego Glover in Lead Actress, as well, but I'm not holding my breath. <br /><br />It's sad that there are only two new original score musicals in the running and both might lose out on to Enron. Don't get me wrong: I want a non-musical nominated in score so the voters realize how important underscoring can be in a play. Very strange Tony rulings are really screwing things up at the last minute. Cook isn't a lead in a show that features her almost as much as the Sondheim videos, but Gallagher Jr. is a lead in a very large ensemble show.OtherRoberthttp://sketchydetails.tknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-61900150459063986142010-05-02T13:07:28.380-04:002010-05-02T13:07:28.380-04:00Oh, Nataniel, you wouldn't imagine what a joke...Oh, Nataniel, you wouldn't imagine what a joke Burned by the Sun 2 is. It has been laughed over everywhere in Russia by critics and moviegoers uniformly. It a shame really to see the final collapse of the once great director and actor, the author of my absolute favorite movies, those include the original Burned by the Sun. Forget about any Oscar chances for it. I'm expecting a scandal from Cannes, actually, it's only got into the competition by Mikhalkov's name alone, this movie is so below EVERYTHING, wonder what's happen then they'll actually see it.Marianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-59905013055975120342010-05-02T12:24:25.796-04:002010-05-02T12:24:25.796-04:00The release of the first picture from London Boule...The release of the first picture from London Boulevard doesn't warrant a mention?Ishmaelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8256060.post-33364572026912315912010-05-02T12:16:22.094-04:002010-05-02T12:16:22.094-04:00Wow, I just saw that they honored Alicia Silversto...Wow, I just saw that they honored Alicia Silverstone!
