Just popping in to wish everyone a happy belated 'Wait, THAT'S the plot of Dear Evan Hansen?? Day'
Buffista Movies Across the 8th Dimension!
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 approve of this holiday. Maybe we can generalize it to "OMGWTFMusicals?! Day" and just change the specific observance by year?
Am I the last person to know that Spielberg is remaking West Side Story?
Nooooooooo! (I'll probably watch it)
Well, we know he has the Sharks covered...

I would 100% celebrate this every year, but I do feel like DEH has an unusually high OMGWTF factor.

Bwah!
Good one, Matt! I was stuck in a loop of "but why?" and that made me laugh
I seriously don’t understand the confusion about the Evan Hanson plot. I only know the one song, but I still know the plot. Then I realized that the theatre world is really small.
I love the music, but the actual plot of DEH makes me cringe.
Fantastic trailer for Edgar Wright's upcoming film, Last Night in Soho: [link]
Loving that surreal vibe and the neon palate. I am a horror weenie and the only Dario Argento I've watched is Suspiria, but the influence seems very clear. It's shot by the great Korean cinematographer Chung Chung Hoon, who was the DP for most of Park Chan Wook films including Old Boy, Lady Vengeance, Stoker, and The Handmaiden. Great cast as well -- Anya Taylor-Joy and Tomasin McKenzie are two of the best young actresses working today, and that sounds like Taylor-Joy singing that stripped down version of "Downtown." Colour me psyched!
