Now or Later

A little bit of a detour from the average Friday...

So why now?

If it's a Disney thing, why now? Later  maybe. But before production even starts?  Isn't that kind of a waste?

And why would you faux it up and alienate a large part of your audience when studios are clamoring for every ticket buyer they can get ?  Especially when it is part of a guaranteed audience who liked the original Broadway musical?

Why would an openly gay director make one of his stars hide?

Woods is different than PoP.  PoP was designed as a tent pole franchise to sell product and had a much younger target audience.  Like 6-16.  Who are musicals made for?  Usually older than 6 let's say.

Now could it be that this is more for something coming out, let's say in about 8 weeks?  A big movie that really hasn't had much publicity yet? One that has a lead star running " 'round the county" trying to deny something with such fervor.

 Could it be that they don't want any speculation about any other member of the cast less it draw attention to them?

Hmmmm.....


And because it wouldn't be Friday.....

You're welcome.
