Comment on Why Paramount Didn’t Market ‘Mean Girls’ as a Musical: ‘People Tend to Treat’ Them ‘Differently’

People tend to treat them differently because “it’s a musical” is used to excuse nonsense writing and bad acting. People who aren’t annoying-ass theater kids don’t want to watch a TV-movie-tier B movie padded out to 2 hours with a bunch of rhythmic talk-singing filler. I’m not criticizing the existence of musicals, it’s just that they’re the most common direct-to-dumpster form of entertainment after horror movies.
