I figure since the movie is coming out in (YEEEEWAHOOOYESYESYES) 18 days (or slightly less)... well. IT DESERVES ITS OWN THREAD, OKAY!? Now, if only I could go to New York, LA, or Toronto, and I could see it in 6 days.... Anywho. I got the new soundtrack today. I'm listening to it right now, in fact. I haven't gotten to hear all of it yet ... but I've just now finished the first disc. ^_^ It ended with "Over the Moon." Man.. it's really different. XD The songs... are still as great as ever. I have to say though ... some parts are a lot like the old, and some are so different it's a little shocking. Like, I made the IRL "O__O" face. XD I can't wait to hear La Vie Boheme.... Err. Yes. I don't know what else to say~.. except... LOVE FOR T3H RENT.... Yup.

RENT IS THE AWESOME! WOOO!
Now, Kiri. We have to ask ourselves this question:
WHY the HECK didn't one of us make this thread sooner?!?! XD
Well, here it is now, and I can't wait to get the soundtrack... hopefully I will today. ;D XD I'd prolly put La Vie Boheme in, like, first thing. Shwoom.
RENT = <3<3<3<3<3<3

Maz. I think that's good enough reason to take your vacation up here. XDXP Ooooh, and... I GOT IT! I GOT IT! I GOT IT! It's really good; there are a few things I'd change, but I'll talk about those later when I've finished listening. ^^

Okay, time to revive this thread. Why?
Because now I super-dee-dooperly love RENT now. Listening to the movie soundtrack has... ignited the air, so to speak, and I've hopelessly become addicted to it. It just.... rocks. The movie soundtrack has a harder edge to it. I kinda like it. Having listened to the Broadway OST for so long, it's kinda refreshing listening to the same songs... but, newer. There seems to be a lot more guitar and drums in it... it just seems a lot more rocky. I admit, some of the songs I would've liked to stay the same... but there's just a great deal more energy in them now -- songs like Rent, One Song Glory and even La Vie Boheme (while it starts off slower, there's a lot more happening in the percussion) just exhude a more vibrant feel.
My personal favourite however, has to be the first disc. I've always loved the first disc more than the second.... and the same goes for the movie soundtrack. There's just this... added BOOM in it now that inspires me to... I dunno. Just rock out big time. XD I just, love the whole first disc, great stuff.
My only disappointment is Over The Moon. Like K-chan said a long time ago... it just, doesn't sound as crazy and insane as the Broadway version. Having said that, the rockin' at the end is definitely punked up. I like it. I know someone else who'll like it very much too. XD
The thing that really got me addicted to the soundtrack, however, is Love Heals. I just couldn't stop listening to it. It kinda gives me hope and makes me feel a lot better in the morning. And what particularly addicted me to Love Heals?
Rosario Dawson. OMG. Like. When she sings... I just... STOP. It's so... she's so... gar. Her voice is SO soft it makes me want to cry. It's awesome. I can't wait to see this movie... mainly for her. XD
RENT FTW!

Yeah. New Over the Moon isn't that great, but it's fun watching her when she does it in the movie.
I like the fact they were able to add more drums. It's a shame they can't really do that on Broadway, but you wouldn't be able to hear anything else .... and that's sort of important. Like. To know what's going on.
Holy jeeze. I watched the "Today 4 U" (extra thing on the DVD about Jonathan Larson/how RENT came into being). I cried. It was just... tragic. I knew it was tragic... but watching it made me feel like... wow.
There's so many little things about the movie that crack me up. XD I'll have to talk about them some other time, though. Like when everyone's seen the movie.

Well, you might not have to wait so long...
My father has recently (i.e. half an hour ago) placed an order for the RENT DVD, special edition. From America -- our DVD player is multi-zone, so... I anticipate arrival in the next couple of weeks.
So, firstly, I WILL HAVE THE RENT DVD. Score!
Secondly... I'll be one of the first people in New Zealand to see it!... IF NOT THE FIRST. LOL. It still hasn't come out in theaters yet... and still won't for a few more weeks. So like. Phwoosh. XD
Not to mention, we recently got Dolby 5.1 surround sound in our house... so it'll be a full-on experience! YEAH BABY. XD Rockin' swag. Hey Sorien! Group gathering at my place, ASAP buddy! XD

Yes. Twinnie r0xx0rz even more now.. for I HAVE THE DVD XDXDXD
OMG, it's such a good movie. Harrr... where do I start? XD
I've seen it four times already (hmm, fanboy lol) since getting it yesterday, and I'm not sick of it yet. Probably because it's a musical... an album come to life, that I can just keep listening to it over and over again. It's awesome.
Lol. When I started out watching this movie, there was a lot of singing along and stuff, with it turned up loud. But then as the movie got on.... like, in particular, when Will I? started... I couldn't sing. It was just... too powerful. It's one of the few times where I suppose I've been almost struck dumb. It's really cool.
There were actually a few times where I was just moved to.... well, not quite tears, but, overwhelming emotion, one might say.
It was just... good. Really good. XD

OMG I FINALLY GOT TO SEE RENT!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
I absolutely ADORE this movie! The songs! The acting! I have never EVER cried in movies before. But...halfway through the tears just came. I was like, "Well, this isn't so bad." Then Collins starts singing at the funeral and I'm like, "Well, there I go..."
I mean, AH!!! I'm so obsessed with it now! Singing the songs everywhere I go. Telling EVERYONE about it (and not leaving out a single detail, which makes some give me weird looks, but DEAL WITH IT. IT'S RENT PEOPLE). I rented it (yeah, I know. Irony), and I have to give it back Monday. U_U I need money to buy it!!! *cries*

"People ask, well, why are you dumping out the burning stuff?" "'Cause we're PISSED."
It took you guys long enough to figure out how awesome this was.... seriously. It's like K-chan and I tell you these things and you don't believe us... what's with that?
