The World Better Know...and Understand!!

Recently Newsies (my favorite movie) went on Broadway. I know what you are thinking: "Andi, if it's your favorite movie, how can this be a bad thing?" but it is. Not only did they get rid of a major character, they changed who the lead is as a person. Jack Kelly is supposed to be a cowboy, and in love with Sarah Jacobs, but the Broadway people made him not a cowboy and in love with the newspaper lady, who in the movie is a man!!!! This is just wrong and I hate it! You can't make such huge changes.

The fake Jack and the woman who is not Denton

Another thing that they did was change all of the song lyrics!! YOU CAN'T DO THAT TO NEWISES!!! It's not right. King of New York is one of the most beloved songs and they added two new lines that make me sick, "Let's get drunk, not on liquor fame works quicker when you're king of new york." and "Pulitzer and Delancys are peeing their pantsies." WHAT?!?!?! NO!!!! I have no idea about the first one other than they NEVER drink!! The second one should say "Pulitzer's crying, Weasel he's dying!" It just makes me mad! Newsies was good before they went and messed it up! Not to mention that the lead guy (Jack) looks like another character named Mush!!

 I learned everything I ever needed to know form that movie.

All in all, the original is better and I HATE Broadway now!!

LONG LIVE THE NEWSEIS!!!!!
