It was entertaining, but Schumacher is such a hack and I thought a lot of the music was cloying after awhile.

I recently read an interview with Josh Lucas (read: HOT) and he said Emmy Rossum was the bitchiest, most evil person he's worked with.

I give her major props for pulling the vocals off as well as she did. Pryce did a fine job, but Banderas was just eh.

Well, that is the danger of Lloyd Webber, esp. in that musical, which is sappy sappy sappy

I saw Banderas in Nine and let me tell you, the man has a voice on him. Banderas and Jane Krakowski together just made my jaw drop.

I can't really recall anything he's done that I liked. Zorro made me want to pull my hair out.

I saw that and then saw it again with Stamos. It was okay, but I got bored. That is until Eartha Kitt walked on that stage Talk about no one else in the room, though Chita R. was great as well

Also, AB has a set of pipes - no two ways about that.

Well, she would have to:

1. be able to act

which would require

2. not looking like she is bug eyed constipated while singing

I like her though!!!!!!!!
