On Film: Gus Van Sant gets experimental with Casey Affleck and Matt Damon wandering around in the desert.
With minimal dialogue, the friendship is tested to its limits when the pair forget to bring water with them.
On Stage: While it’s cheap as chips to produce, the show does not exactly go over well with crowds used to the stunning spectacle of The Lion King and Wicked.
Word of mouth gets out that it’s two people walking in a circle on some sand for seventeen hours and the attendance figures for the second night include one masochist and the theatre’s caretaker.
Likely Lyric: There are no lyrics.

Yup. Also was thinking the other day that ScarFace would make a great musical.. I like you Tony, you're not a fake or a phony and unlike my misstress you're not skiny and bony You came here on a boat from Cuba You didn't need a wetsuit or a snorkle or scuba, diving suit. And the classic end song.. Say, hello, to my little friend This isn't the start, it is now the eeeeeeeeend. etc. Yeah musical genious me. On a non mad note, Nightmare before Christmas would make a great stage show, why the hell hasn't that happened yet?

You know which of these shouldn't have been a movie? Starship Troopers. I mean, it shouldn't have been a movie in the Paul Verhoven style. It was a great book and would have made a great film, had they makers really cared that much about the story and characters and plotpoints. Poor Robert Heinlein. Has there ever been a decent adaptation of any of his works? I have seen two of his books as films, and got stomache cramps right after watching both of them: Starship Troopers and Puppet Master (Donald Sutherland).
