musicals.

So I’ve been thinking a lot lately that there really haven’t been any great fantastic musicals that have come to the film industry lately and I think thats horrible.  I’m a huge fan of broadway and plays and musicals and I was basically raised on watching The Sound of Music, so I just think it’s really sad that there are no longer any Broadway plays that are being turned into movies.  I mean I realize that the musicals are far better on the stage than they will ever be on the silver screen but not everyone gets to go to New York all the time to see all the musicals that are coming out and I think it would be a great way for them to reach a broader audience.  Also, I think musicals are a great way for the industry to make a profit because both Hairspray and Rent which both recently came to film after being Broadway plays had tremendous success in the movie world.  I just think that people need to start watching those old musicals again like The Music Man and Oklahoma! and Singin in the Rain or that they should make remakes of the old movies because I love the musicals so much and I’ve really missed having them around.
