This is the “Snyder cut” right? I may do a DCEU watch.
No. Snyder cut is for Justice League. This is the three hour directors cut of BvS, which is significantly less worse than the theatrical cut.

Return of the Living Dead is still such a fun watch. So many tropes come from this film.

I hadn't ever saw it on stage, and completely agree. We watched it last night and were legitimately amazed.

Having just listened to it for the first time this week and being blown away, we watched it last night too and I am simply amazed at how incredible this was to watch. Easily one of the best productions all around I've ever seen.

I thought it was super clever that the Kings songs switched from hip hop to Beatles-esque sounds.

The rap battle between Jefferson and Hamilton was also pretty genius

Hamilton was really good. The end felt like it was dragging, but that may be because I was tired and wanted to go to bed. Lol

Jefferson is my favorite character by a mile. So good.

For all of the hype, for all of the hysteria.......... I feel like it was undersold all these years. Simply incredible, even in the compromised experience of the cinema production. Just breathtaking.

Also re Hamilton

THERE ARE SO MANY WORDS my god, hard must it have been to learn the lead roles. Seemed much more wordy than a regular musical.

My old singer was an actor. It never ceased to amaze me how fast he could memorize words.

Somewhere I read LMM couldn’t even do Satisfied as fast as Goldsberry could.

We just watched a YT video where OG cast members answer Twitter questions, and apparently backstage between numbers LMM and Daveed would have freestyle rap battles. Like, the ones in the show weren't enough.

for whatever it's worth, I thought Greatest Showman looked liked garbage going in and expected it to bomb. I agree it's by the numbers, but still enjoyed it.
Same here.
Got around to watching this and the music is amazing. I've been listening to the soundtrack nonstop.

I enjoyed the movie more than I thought I was going too.

We watched a video about Hamilton last night that breaks down its word-per-minute. The cadence and count is roughly double that of a 'normal' show, which means if count stayed the same but the cadence was slowed down to regular speed the show would've been 7 hours long.

Haven't watched the D+ thing yet, but we have watched probably a dozen Zoom interviews with the cast over the past 72 hours. I'm five years behind the power curve on this thing, but I am 100% all-in.

Leslie Odom and Renee Elise Goldsberry are honorary yinzers, graduating BFA from Carnegie Mellon.

Also, we have determined that if you could create a person with Philippa Soo's skin and Jasmine Cephas Jones's hair, that person would be perfect.

Talked about watching good bad and ugly for Ennio, but went with Hot Shots instead. That's a damn fine movie that holds up with the laughs consistently.

I slipped on a crab. Who put that crab there?

I don't see any crab, sir.

Don't tell me. There were two crabs. They work in pairs. I went to Annapolis for chrissakes...
To this day, I use this when I trip or stumble. Last week when I smashed my toe, Mrs Tif was like "Did you slip one of the crabs?"
