Looking for something mindless last night, we rented Rent![[Wiki]](/adbanners/lookingglass.png){kind=small}
. Skip it. Flat characters that generated little sympathy from either of us ("Oh, look, talentless deadbeats unwilling to work complaining that they can't make it"), uninspired music and lyrics (yes, the "Five hundred twenty five thousand six hundred" bit is the only memorable hook in the show). It was a $2.50 midweek special and felt like we'd overpaid.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
