I see your point, but then again yes - we sort of do. They are all adaptations from the same source and story, so we are bound to compare them. Nevertheless, the article should have noted what you and others have.

Careful when you order the rice and Skittles - a few of them might be poison. Then again you might decide that it's worth it to save the lives of several Syrian refugees. I don't know - I read something about this and it's all very confusing. Life was simpler when I was a kid and a Skittle was just a Skittle. The…

I remember seeing an early trailer for BWP that cleverly presented it as an authentic compilation of found footage - I was intrigued enough that I saw an early showing when it came to our local indie cinema house. I still remember it as one of the most thrilling theatrical experiences I have ever been to, but I…

Barb's hair and makeup were particularly spot-on - that feathered-back take on a Dorothy Hamill.

She was one of those artists that transcended categorization. I remember hearing "Crazy" when I was a kid and being genuinely surprised that it was considered country music. To my ears it was just a great ballad.

Yes it's technically possible, but I'm pretty sure Neko Case has the sense of good taste not to attempt this sort of thing. Natalie Cole got a pass because it was her dad - though it was still a bit creepy.

Please check out Sing Street. I thought I was enjoying it so much because as an 80's teen I had so much fun recognizing the spot-on homages to early 80's bands, videos, and styles, but my 14 year old son loved it as much as I did - so it seems to work just as an entertaining coming of age story. It might also be…

I dunno - when he talked all I heard was "Wa, wa, wa!"

Agree - and it's too bad because the sound at the Richard Rogers theater is incredible. We saw the show back in February - we were way back in the balcony but during the quiet sections - like when Phillipa Soo sings solo - you could hear every word clear as a bell, while louder sections like the booming cannons during…

Yorktown is all the more effective at the Rogers - the lighting is incredible - the break section (with the chime sound) where the cast all get individual spotlights gets an applause break.

After seeing her kill it when the cast did a post-show tribute to Prince, then her stunning performance on Colbert - I knew the Tony was hers - I was lucky enough to see Phillipa Soo in Hamilton this past February and she was remarkable, but Cynthia is a force of nature. https://youtu.be/ei1jsFOO3CQ

Want to get people to actually watch the Tony Awards? Tell them the best leading actor in a musical will be determined with an actual live duel between Lin Manuel Miranda and Leslie Odom Jr.. Have the cast perform "The World Was Wide Enough" with real pistols - last man standing gets the Tony. The ratings will go…

As @Brienne@MsMira:disqus states above, the show made a promotional shot-for-shot recreation of that Michael Bay "Got Milk?" commercial. Like everything else associated with Hamilton - it's very well done: https://youtu.be/Z-KoAi3Nl9Q

Miss him.

Bartlet for America, or I'm not voting.

Agreed - plus with that baby face he can pass as much younger - I didn't realize he was beyond 30 until reading your post.

It's funny because as soon as she showed up in Girls her characterisms reminded me of how she played Marie De Salle (a name that sounds just slightly less made-up than Tandice Moncrief) but the more we saw of Tandice the more insufferable she proved to be - and thus a perfect fit for Desi.

Why didn't they just market this show by playing the theme song "Gunfight Epiphany"? It's one of my favorites and every time I hear it I just want to re-watch. https://youtu.be/qD8Kh7Pmzho

Tipper Gore and the PMRC were paying attention to his lyrics as I recall.

Hmmm… carve names on a rock that no one can find without directions? There are worse things she could do… She could flirt with all the guys, smile at them and bat her eyes, press against them when they dance, make them think they stand a chance, then refuse to see it through - that's a thing she'd never do.
