RtS: Jesus Christ Superstar

[Morrigoon]

What? No buttless chaps? Oh Bornieo, you have NOT seen JCS then!

I saw it many many years ago at the Universal Amphitheater and they had a huge inflatable Jesus head and hands for one of the crazy marketplace scenes, and the obligatory (I thought) buttless chaps for the Herod scene, etc. The one you saw sounds worse than the one PanTheMan and I were in back at Diablo Valley College. We at least had buttless chaps! (even if the butt part was covered in skin-colored nylon - the niceties must be observed on public campuses, after all).

Oh, and I thought the 70's film version sucked big hairy donkey balls. I liked it better when someone explained that the reason they were doing it on friggin scaffolding in the middle of the desert is that they were attempting to perform it in the actual locations the scenes are believed to have taken place, but I still didn't like it much. I've got the more recent filming on my Netflix list, I'll let you know if it's any better.
