Tyler Phillips

OK Tom Hanks is producing SPRING AWAKENING the movie.....

OMG of all the discussions I started this one won't die!!!!!!! A lesson in social media.....


Now we can start the official season of speculation.... OK first off.. Hanks knows movie making and he knows music.... It's all good. McG as director ok he's also a songwriter and record producer Sugar Ray, Smash Mouth, Offspring... directed WE ARE MARSHALL and one of the CHARLIE'S ANGELS things and TERMINATOR SALVATION... ok i guessss... Sheik & Sater back supposedly with an additional song or two....

OK I am about to go way way out on the edge for this one.... as you know I am huge about promoting Broadway back into the mainstream of american life...... It would be HUGE to have... (I really am going to say this...) Miley as Wendla

Think about it.... coming of age not a 20 something made-to-look-like.... she can sing the tunes.... would be an over the top breakout for her, for the flick and more importantly for the show..... and Mamma Who Bore Me would be #1 for a year........ when was a showtune last #1 on the Billboard Top 100??? (I know David knows.... Dolly ???? Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In???).

The cast needs to be of age and solid around her.... and I see you coming in here with the Jonas-es... we will have none of that......

Let the speculation begin..... OK OK I AM ABOUT TO GIVE IN......maybe not the best idea...... but what about the cast??? Who would you like to see?????

I don't see what's the problem if Miley Cyrus doesn't like musicals. A lot of people don't like musicals and a lot of people don't like Glee. So what?

I'm also a little confused as to how you can compare Into the Woods with Nine or Bye, Bye, Birdie. Both of the latter have movie adaptations and Into the Woods doesn't... though, for the record both Into the Woods and Nine are two of my favorite stage musicals.

And part of the nature of live theatre is that it's live and it's transient and it doesn't last forever. You get to keep the experience, and even if you go back it's not the same. That's one of the biggest differences between theatre and film, and one of the things that constantly brings me back to the theatre.

I would love to see this movie since I didn't get to see it live.
