I guess Disney isn't ready to admit that this is a musical? Trying not to freak out about that. I guess there are some other changes, but part of me wonders if they are just going to do the first half of the musical and stop (i.e. end while it's all happy and, well, DISNEY LOL).

I will be judging this SO HARD as Into the Woods is one of my all

IT BETTER BE ALL THERE; ALL THE MUSIC!

I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?! I'm dreading this...maybe we should have an Into the Woods viewing party LOL

Hoo boy.

*is nervous*

I like Anna Kendrick a *lot* though. And I know she can sing. So there's that.

[orangerful]

Anna is just Cinderella who has a few songs...she should be fine.

...crap I think I'm going to need to listen to the CD in the car tomorrow LOL. Wonder if I can find it in my shelves...

I have to admit that I'm pretty excited for this but I would have loved to have seen some evidence of it being an actual musical.

[orangerful]

Yeah, this is just the teaser so I'm assuming later trailers will include a bit of the music...though it's probably hard to cut a trailer for a musical without making it sound like a commercial for a Greatest Hits CD LOL. I'm just...I don't think there is any way Streep can be as amazing as Bernadette Peter. :-\

Anna Kendrick and Chris Pine? HEEEEELL FREAKING YES.

Also Johnny Depp, but mostly Anna and Chris.

I've never seen any version of Into the Woods and don't really know what it's about (other than what I see based on the trailer) but this looks really good.

I was going to direct you to where to watch it but it appears Netflix lost the rights ***glares at Disney who must be behind this***

It's a Broadway musical by Stephen Sondheim. Telling the fairy tales as grim as they really were and as though all the characters lived in the same town together. It's got some beautiful songs...Funny thing is, the Baker and his Wife are really the central characters everything revolves around and they are barely featured in the trailer.

Oooh, okay. It sounds kind of interesting and I feel like it kind of reminds me of that movie The Brothers Grimm (which I only have vague memories of because I only saw it the one time I watched it) based on what you've said. And :| well of COURSE they'd go and change something like that. Very typical of movie adaptations like this. I bet they did it that way on purpose for the trailer, in order to show Anna, Johnny and Chris pine more than anyone else.

James Cordon!

And if it's by the director of Chicago, chances are it'll be a musical.

[orangerful]

Oh, yes, it is the musical. I'm just surprised they didn't put even a hint of the music into the trailer. But I guess it is just a teaser. Still...I want to hear everyone sing so I may judge them!!!
