    Default The failure of the Musical is because of OMD

    True or false?

    or in Schmitty's case: 42.

    I had no idea mainstream was taking the divorce between Spidey and MJ to heart.

    Newsarama and CBR have covered the mixed to bad reactions the Musical has received so far.
    I don't think it has anything to do with OMD, though.

    It happened on Sunday, November 28. There was an article about it in the New York Post: http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/m...uFc5Lv0XNc8f0J

    Also, both io9 and Bleeding Cool gave spoilery reviews for it.

    I heard OMD killed Leslie Neilsen.

    I never thought I'd see a gay guy diss a musical.
    OMD truly has a lot to answer for. And by OMD I mean Orchestral Maneouvres (In The) Dark.

    As was my post. Well, except for the Orchestral Maneouvres (In The) Dark bit.
    I meant that.
