First off, I just fell out of my effing chair, because I watched THE MOVIE TRAILER FOR RENT!! ::dies:: And with so many of the original Broadway performers in the cast, too! I am pleased and impressed and gaaaahhh SO COOL. Also: very curious about how Rosario Dawson will do.

A bit of wearable silly for WoW geeks that rantar pointed me towards: WTS ...

53 games in, and the Sox still have the best win record in baseball this season! Must... not... get hopes up!!

Memes make the world go 'round!

why curious about Taye Diggs?

*curses self for being at work and thus unable to see the trailer*

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Taye and Rosario are apparently the two "big names" that were tapped to fill out the cast--as Benny and Mimi, respectively--and I've never heard Taye or Rosario sing before. ^^;;; It looks like the rest of the cast (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0294870/) is being played by the original Broadway performers.

Sarah! Taye was OBC!

[skeets.livejournal.com]

::slaps forehead:: I totally didn't know that! LMAO!

It's weird, because I somehow knew who Taye was before I even knew the show existed, so it's like, the other castpeople are their characters, but Taye Diggs is just Taye Diggs. ::laughs::

[fieryrogue.livejournal.com]

Ha ha ha! Awesome. I have the opposite problem, strangely. Anthony Rapp = Anthony Rapp, Adam Pascal = Adam Pascal, but Taye Diggs = Benny (That fuck!). Bizarro.

[totchiko.livejournal.com]

Dude, Taye Diggs IS Benny. Like 100% Original Broadway Cast type IS. XD

Eric saw the cast list a few months back as was "ehhh??" at him, too.. but see, he's never seen or even HEARD RENT so that makes more sense ^_~

[skeets.livejournal.com]

LMAO!! How the hell did I miss that??

[totchiko.livejournal.com]

I have NO idea. XD

And I hop you didn't get spammed, LJ went all wonky and totally triple posted that comment O.o

[skeets.livejournal.com]

Well, I never did see OBC live, or even pictures, really. ^^; Thing is, I knew who Taye was before I even knew the show existed, so it's like, the other castpeople are their characters, but Taye Diggs is just Taye Diggs. ::laughs:: It doesn't even register!

[totchiko.livejournal.com]

I never saw OBC either, but I like, memorized the booklet that came w/ my CD set. ^^;;;; Might have helped that I got turned onto it just a couple months after it came out and had a friend who saw it in NY and went ON and ON about how excellent the cast was, though.. ^_~

I'm sad that Daphne Rubin-Vega won't be in it, but I understand the reasoning for casting someone else in her role. Mimi's supposed to be really young and apparently cigarettes have ruined Daphne's voice. Not so sure about the whole Rosario Dawson, though. I saw pictures a few months back and she had straight hair.. which is just wrong X_x

01. I was filled with gleeee when you started using LJ because you are fun and I missed hearing from you. :D
02. Right now, "Smoke Some Pot" by the Dead Milkmen, cos you gave it to me. Every time it comes up on my work playlist, I laugh and thing of you!
03. 3am. You always seem to keep weird or inconsistent hours.
04. Feisty!
05. I remember chatting with you and Amer and laughing our asses off about retard anime fans.
06. Probably a kitten. Very cute but also very sharp and, yes, feisty. :)
07. How did you meet your boy?! I don't think I ever heard the official story.

HIGH!) and i invited him to a party. we've been together since that night. TEEHEE.

Okay, and at this moment in time as I'm posting this, the "Trailer" link on that page is incognito! Here's a direct link: http://www.tribute.ca/player/enhancePlayer.asp?isWM=1&isQT=1&filePath=Trailers&fileName=rent

ANOTHER COMMENT: They've pulled it now. They must be the only ones who have it. *WEEPS*

Is Life Cafe in the movie? I kinda hope not, it's my favorite secret not-crowded restaurant that happened to be in Rent. o_O

I'll play...
