I went and saw RENT tonight.
Amazing, amazing, amazing. Don't let anybody tell you otherwise. It's been sold out since before tickets even went on sale, and there was even a person camping out in front of the theatre tonight before the 7 o' clock showing. It was quite funny. Elisha Cuthbert was there, too. She gave me her autograph and sat behind me and we talked a little. It was cool.
But anyway, about the movie. I think the producers made a wise choice by casting Rosario Dawson in the role of Mimi as opposed to Daphne Rubin Vega reprising her role (I'm not a great fan), and Rosario can definitely sing 10 times better than the latter. I just might have to get the motion picture album, because there's some things that are different, and Rosario is just amazing.
I'm excited this movie was made. Now for all my fellow "Rentheads", do yourself a favor and go see it right now. It'll be $10 well spent, I promise. If I'm wrong, I give you full permission to beat me unmercilessly when and if you see me in the near future.
You'll like it though.
I wanna slap:
I wanna kiss: Rosario Dawson.
Countdown until I depart: 26 days.
