The Sound of Music Live

Is anyone else watching this travesty? I LOVE the original movie and I just can't handle Carrie Underwood as Maria.  Oh yeah, and the acting... oy!  Am I being too judgey?

  • And yes, I'm a huge hater today.  I blame the hormones.

    @Laurski81 Your opinion is tainted!  Wine makes everything better.  Although, if I were to drink and watch this I would be afraid that Vampire Bill would eat Carrie Underwood.  It could happen!

    ETA: I hope you watch True Blood or else I probably sound like a loon.

  • @Summergirl1211 I know!  That's what makes this so tragic.  The original cannot be matched.

    I like it, but going in to watching it I knew it would be nothing like the Julie Andrews' version. It's not suppose to be a remake of the motion picture, it's an adaptation of the stage production.
    Ah, that makes sense.  I was wondering if the unfamiliar songs were from the stage production.

  • Carrie's not great, although I think her acting warmed up a little as the hours went on.... I hope they do one of these every year!

  • I prefer Vampire Bill.

  • I liked it! The acting was a little bad especially at first, but I thought it was a fun idea to do it live. It's snowy here and I was snuggled in with hot cocoa and I thought it was a pleasant way to spend the evening.
    I will clarify a few things though:
    -I've seen the original once I think, but don't have the attachment to it I know many do
    -Carrie's from OK so I have a soft spot for her
    -I love musicals and DH hates them so this was the closest thing to going to the theatre I've had in a while
    Plus, I don't mind a little cheesy. I like wholesome entertainment, even if it's "subpar".
