James Intveldt was the singer for Depp in Cry-Baby -- I have the soundtrack, especially for the wowzo Sweet singing, but he's damn good, too.

Buffista Movies 5: Development Hell
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I'm a big fan of the 1982 version -- not actually a movie, just a filmed performance from the National Tour, so it preserves all the wonderful staging.
I have the tape of that. Love it. Should probably find the DVD (as well as the DVDs for Pippin and Pirates of Penzance.)

Now tagless for your comfort.
they were probably going to dub the singing, either way.
Russell's a decent singer. Yes, I went to Austin to hear his crappy garage band, 30 Odd Foot of Grunts.

He's also famous for having done Frankenfurter (so to speak) in Oz, right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Victor Garber was also in the original cast of Sweeney Todd, but is tragically not on the DVD. (Although Cris Grodendaal is quite good.)

Hey. New board.
I liked the cast-as-orchestra of the revival Sweeny, at many points. It rarely distracted me, and often was cool. The minimalist goth aesthetic, I loved.
I own the 1982 DVD, but have yet to find the right time to watch it. Same for Sunday in the Park with George, actually.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I found it very distracting, and at times actively annoying. (Distracting in the case of Anthony and Joanna never being able to actually look at each other, annoying in the case of "and now, for no reason, here is Patty Lupone with a tuba." Sure, it's funny in an absurdist kind of way, but what does it have to do with anything?)
But what I really came in here to post was that I saw The Lake House yesterday, and my record for liking Keanu Reeves' movies far more than they deserve is holding strong. I mean, he's just so freaking cute. (For an explanation of the time-travel mechanism, just rent Frequency, which is basically the exact same movie.)
