To mix my cinematic comedy classics a bit, I'm not dead yet. But until I have a chance to write more I thought I'd send up a flare by posting this link to a review of the Seattle pre-Broadway premier of Young Frankenstein. The Tynes clan seem to like it quite a bit. (There's a link to some official photos, too.)

I still have mixed emotions about this whole film-to-musical thing, and more so about the film-to-musical-to-film idea, but since both Broadway and Hollywood seem to have run out of ideas at the same time, what the hell. It's not like I'm going to skip the Burton/Depp film adaptation of Sweeney Todd.
