Personally I don’t Norman Osborn being a southerner (but then maybe that’s because I’M from the south, lol ;P *Shurgs*) is nearly as bad as trying to combine with Doc Ock… how the check is that supposed to work? Is he going to be the Green Goblin with Doc Ock’s arms? How stupid would that be o_O!?
Even given that theater is a different medium than comics or film, I don’t get how making Norman “Southern” accomplishes anything – unless the character is supposed to have a Bible Belt perspective.
I thought this musical was a dumb idea from the word “go”, now it’s a worse idea.
I wonder what sort of songs Bono & Edge wrote for the musical.
‘With Or Without Gwen’?
‘With Or Without Ben’?
‘Goblin Glider The Blue Sky’?
‘Brooklyn Bridge Bloody Brooklyn Bridge’? (Or GW Bridge,whatever)
‘Doc Ock Moves In Mysterious Ways’?
‘Angel Of Forest Hills(Mary Jane’s Theme)’?
This thing stopped trying to match the source material when it became a musical, so.. yeah, I’m ok with this as long as it’s good.
Oh dear god. This hits an 11 on the Yikes meter
Sounds kinda dumb but on the other hand I don’t even care about this.
Swiss Miss?!?! Instant Cocoa?!?! Sounds like a train wreck already.
Wtf? There’s a certain degree towards changing changing character’s for another medium that I’m okay with, but that is just ridiculous.
