I just saw the 2005 version of The Producers and LOVED it! I was already a big fan of Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick, but I had never seen their true range of dance and singing, not to mention O.T.T. but thoroughly enjoyable acting. I was also pleasantly surprised by the supporting cast. Uma Thurman was very funny, as well as a good dancer and singer, and even Will Ferrel was highly entertaining. I'll just go ahead and say that the guy normally irritates the heck out of me, but after seeing this, I appreciate his great comic talent. I still say he's completely wasted on most of the trash movies he makes at the moment though.
The "Gay" song had me in stitches, and especially the servant who answers the door: "YEEeeeessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss.....s." And of course "Springtime for Hitler" is superb.
Anyway, the movie was great. I haven't seen the original (well, only parts), but I want to. I also decided to make a poll, to see what peopel thought of the two movies.
