I was with a group, deciding on a theme for I-forgot-what, but it doesn't matter. Of course, being me, I shouted out the idea for a Broadway-themed-whateveritwas. I wasn't quite paying attention redface before that, but it turns out someone had already showted the theme of Hollywood. They were both in the top five, then the top three, then they were the top two.
Broadway vs. Hollywood.
I found it ironic.
Anyhow, sadly Hollywood won, but I found the situation kinda funny.

Though I enjoy the fruits of Hollywood's labors on a more frequent basis, nothing compares to live entertainment. It's in the way their voices echo, I think. To see a show from your favorite box at your favorite venue doesn't even compare to seeing a movie. There's no little ghost echo at the end and the magic is completely destroyed.

Truely I am torn. boradway gives you the reality of the person right there in front of you and the hard work the put into memorizing their work but Hollyowod gives you more freedome to express the piece and to really bring it to life. Hmmmm art.

Plus, when it comes to just being a viewer (i.e. in the audience), Hollywood's fare is infinitely cheaper, and more readily available than Broadway's. That is to say, compare a hundred bucks to see a show on Broadway compared to nine to see a movie in a theater. And that's only if you live near NYC, or a place where national tours go (e.g. I had a friend in Hawaii who complained about shows never coming there), whereas most movies have a much wider release.
But in truth, I don't feel like the two are pitted against each other. They offer different services to different people, y'know?

I have great respect for both, especially after taking acting for film last semester. I agree with thi statement: PensivePine But in truth, I don't feel like the two are pitted against each other. They offer different services to different people, y'know? It's really two completely different forms of art/expression.

I think that in meanings of productions Broadway is more likely to make people think and Hollywood is more likely to tell people what to think. I suppose their's a viewership to each, but I like Broadway better.
