RENT Movie
I walked into Rock Corner (is that what it's called?) in The Curve. My mission? To locate and purchase Craig David's first album. So, yeah I was thinking:
"What if they have the OST of AVENUE Q?!"
Wow. Yeah. So I walked around and wandered to the opposite section. The shop is split the left which holds the CDs, and the right which holds all the movies. They were selling ORIGINAL box-set DVDs of Smallville (only season 1 and 2) for less than RM100.
So cool.
Anyway, it turns out this wandering around business pays off. Woo!! Woooooo!!!! Oh, back to the other question about Avenue Q. I guess it hasn't and might never arrive here. On my to-look-out-for list: Spamalot! Okay, I'm done messing with this page.
To summarize:
Rent the Movie is a real-time version of Rent the Musical. The time-line makes everything feel meatier, more details, more grit. It's film. There are more nuances facially, as well as verbally. Adam Pascal, who plays Roger, is a bit kayu-lah. But cute :) A bit Jon Bon Jovi'ish.
Anyway, yeah. It was a very digestible version of the Play, they were true to the songs, the whole story, and still made it interesting viewing.
If any DVian wants to make a movie day out of this, you're invited to my place :) BRING SNACKS AND WINE! :D
