    So... What's all the hype behind this movie about? I keep seeing it mentioned on this board and I know nothing about it

    It's the first original musical since Newsies, directed by Damien Chazelle (Whiplash, a pretty damn good movie) and starring Queen Stone and King Gosling, which also promises to be a glorious throwback to old Hollywood and classic musicals. Need I say more?

    Week 2 - And it all goes up in flames within 10 days of the start

    First time director...great actors...beloved source material..studio system...no guarantee it will be any good. 

    If this turns out bad then everyone will say they should have hired a seasoned director.

    Hopefully it is at least on the level of Constantine.

    This isn't a first-time director, though.
