so, there is, apparently, going to be a the princess bride musical...

I'm a little out of date, as this was announced august of last year... but considering I was two years late on the wicked band wagon, this is to be expected...

here's the thing...

I really love the princess bride - the movie - and I really love the book... (btw - s. morgenstern - doesn't exist, there is no sequel, and goldman is a genius for being able to make lorie and me look for it - despite the fact that we used the internet to try and find the "sequel" when the whole time we could have used it to discover the truth)...

but when they turn movies and books into musicals, it doesn't always turn out so well... for example - big, the secret garden, both great movies (and a great book in the case of the latter) but not so great as musicals... (I thought it the secret garden soundtrack would have been a good gift for lorie, but after listening to it... not so exciting...) wicked on the other hand, was a neat book, albeit slow, I understand what he was doing, but I wasn't enthralled... but then again, I like my books character intensive and I like to peel the layers of insight off whilst I read... and I also like them fun...

whatever...

I digress... if the princess bride musical ever gets produced, I'll probably see it if it is in the area...

whether if it is good or not...
