So, the official trailer for the upcoming Rock of Ages movie adaptation is out:

I'm... underwhelmed. I mean, I'll still see it because I loved the musical. Points for casting the babealicious Julianne Hough as Sherrie. And honestly, Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand, Paul Giamatti and even Tom Cruise seem to fit. But wait, are they changing the bad guys ( Read more... )

So, since I've been a musical kick as of late, got the soundtrack to "Book of Mormon". Its actually incredibly catchy!

TV commentaries:

Vampire Diaries- I'm amused that I feel Katherine can fool me into thinking she's Elena, since this is a TV show where the characters are played by the same actress. But like I said, its a credit it to Nina ( Read more... )

Okay, this is kinda amusing, a musical version of Star Wars written by some high schoolers and performed back in 1996, until Lucas told them to cease in desist. Its not too bad, I'll give those kids props for what I think is a pretty original production.

TV commentary:

Justified- Okay, I was totally confused by what was happening last week, ( Read more... )

So isabel79 tweeted about Priscilla Queen of the Desert musical coming to Broadway next year. Am I ghey for being incredibly excited to see this after looking it up? I saw the preview of the NZ production has "Don't Leave Me This Way" and CeCe Peniston's "Finally", which is totally awesome! But then I looked up the song list on Wikipedia, and for the ( Read more... )

Woah, looks like I haven't made a post here since getting up here for Christmas. So, obviously, I'm up in NYC for the holidays. Typical Christmas Eve, good food, followed by the Christmas Choir at 1030 and the 11pm mass, then gift opening after midnight. Went to NJ for Christmas as usual, played a bunch of Beatles Rock Band and Rock Band 2. ( Read more... )

After finally listening to the Glee Cast version of Queen's "Somebody to Love", I just have to say "WOW!" An incredible version of such an awesome song. Some may disagree, but I think that its as good if not better than their rendition of Journey's "Don't Stop Believin'" in the pilot. And does everyone have a part in this one? I mean, I think all ( Read more... )

I still say even kids born after 1985 should know that the year Marty Mcfly went back to in Back to the Future was 1955. ojv('Man, its obvious!') Its like only on TBS and TNT every other weekend ( Read more... )

While trying the new Prime Rib Thick Burger from Hardee's (I was actually wanting some Taco Bell, but was annoyed when I pulled into the local Taco Bell/KFC and saw it was closed for renovations, so I went next door to Hardee's. But I digress) for dinner, caught the second half of that American Mall movie last night. While I'm glad Autumn Reeser is ( Read more... )

Finally got to see the first act of Whedon's Dr. Horrible a few minutes ago. I had tried yesterday, but the servers were too bogged down or something. I enjoyed it, its clever and catchy. I knew NPH could sing, because I remember hearing he played Mark on Rent. (Though while he looks like a Mark, he doesn't really sound like a Mark.) But it was ( Read more... )

Today was laundry day- ended up finally watching Rent over lunch. As readers of this journal would know, I had already seen the actual theater production back in NY with psyched_out and his wife a couple of years ago, but had my cellphone stolen over dinner right before, so that was hanging over my head and precluded my enjoyment of it. Watching the movie ( Read more... )
