The same thing happens with men. How many "South Pacific"s am I going to have to sit through where Cable is a whispery Jack Johnson wannabe? Again, it's not necessarily a bad thing if that's someone's style, but there's just no way this particular character would sound like that when singing.


i'm just gonna shorten the question.

how many south pacifics am i going to have to sit through?

Judy Kuhn played Cosette in Les Mis. Frances played Eponine.

To my knowledge, the only roles they've had in common are whores during "Lovely Ladies."

I really like Emmy... She may not have been totally perfect for POTO but some people who claim she can't sing is just ridiculous.

And I adore Anne Hathaway... she has a great voice too, I'd like to see her in a musical sometime soon.

Gosh, I love Anne Hathaway. She's yet to be appreciated by Hollywood the way she deserves to be. Such a classic class act movie star without any of the tabloid drama.

Although I don't think that's a really big unpopular opinion, but we were on the subject. Wink

Youtube used to have a ton of episodes, but they were all taken down.
And apparently there will never be a DVD release because of copyright laws the show broke with their ending credit songs or something.

Although Amazon.com sells the two movies they made on DVD, "Is it College Yet?" and "Is it Fall Yet?" And I think both of those DVDs come with one bonus episode each or something. Smile

Anne Hathaway gets under my skin a bit. I think I'm just jealous of her. I think she's pretty bloody talented, is SUPER gorgeous and has a beyond-awesome name.
Yeah, I'm just jealous.

The Princess Diaries. *sigh* I LOVE the first one. Love.
The second one I saw, thought it stank, but cried when Julie Andrews sang that little bit.

DORK. But hey, it was touching! She sang! Embarassed

Unpopular Opinion: I think that if a film is ever made of Into the Woods, Anne Hathaway or Sarah Jessica Parker should be in it... and I think either one would make a good Cinderella (although it's a bit high for them).

I think Raul Esparza rounds his vowels just fine.
I think Ruthie Henshall can keep her mouth as closed as she wants as long as she still sounds good.
I think my acid washed shirt is not ugly.
I think lonelygirl15 is better than most TV shows out there and it's not even on TV.

This one is unpopular....Bill Cosby is not funny. He's stale. And I'm sorry, this TV career? Please, he just does the same thing over and over again - and it was never pure gold to begin with. And when he finally got too ancient to keep playing (basically) the same character, he had an animated incarnation of it. Dude, we've got it, you have an off-beat, family-friendly sense of humor. But give it a rest.

I'm not actually a polygamist myself, I just support it. I'm actually celibate right now, but if I was ever in a relationship, I'd probably be a monogamist. I'm too jealous of a person. But I totally support people who are polygamists. Politics should be kept out of the bedroom.

I know all about the patriarchy and abuse of polygamy in certain cultures. My point is that it is wrong for us to use this as a reason to make consentual polygamy illegal. Marriage was once about a man owning a woman, and beating her into submission, but we never made that illegal.
