No offense to Ahrens and Menken, but do we really think this musical is good enough to make a movie out of? I'm all for things getting preserved, but I'd choose some other things over this!

You know what I love the score to this production. It is ideally suited for the transer to film and as a sucker to anything Dickens, I say bring it on.

I think it's ideally suited for film. I just wish it was a feature production rather than made-for-television. Ever since I saw the show years ago, I thought it would probably be quite successful as a holiday feature film.

and Kelsey's a pretty good singer too, as evidenced by the showtune-crooning Sideshow Bob on The Simpsons. His rendition of HMS Pinafore was priceless.

...err....anyone who saw Kelsey Grammer play Sweeney Todd in LA will beg to differ about his singing abilities.

So is the SCROOGE re-make we talked about a while ago still happening? (The Briccusse/Newley production?)


PEACE.
