I think this is great news and a bit of commercial reality setting with the production that realises that your average BAT fan who will go to a BOOH Musical wants teenage escapism with a big sad love story and over the top music/melodrama mixed in with a bit of sexy fun (like this film) and not over the top pyrotechnics and stuff that belongs in a circus. Story over gimmicks, which is what I thought Jim was all about anyway.
