An entertainment news story dropped today that has me filled with the most mixed of emotions: several of the creative forces behind my favorite film ever, Back to the Future, are in early discussions to mount a Broadway musical incarnation of the film.
On the one hand, this is sort of everything that's wrong with the entertainment industry right now. Messing with something that was absolutely perfect the first time around. Regurgitating an old idea rather than crafting a new one. Crowding out the few new ideas with endless remakes of old ones.
On the other hand, how could I possibly not want to see a Back to the Future musical, if they actually made one?
Checkmate, you bastards, check and mate.

I won't be able to sleep properly until this one hits the stage.
And then, maybe never again.
