Lea Thompson: Are You Duckin' Kidding?

Eighties actress Lea Thompson has the best/most crackpot idea we've heard in ages -- turn cult fav/critically abysmal "Howard the Duck" into a Broadway musical!


Hey, it worked for "Hairspray." Of course that plot was a bit more relatable than a talking duck fighting a Dark Overlord in Cleveland.

3. Broadway is a joke.

Where is, "The Simpsons: The Musical" ? "Family Guy?

How about, "Conan the Barbarian: The Musical" ?

Or the best yet: "Lou Dobbs: the Musical"

4. What about Katie Holmes on Broadway? Which is, according to reports, going to happen. I guess Tom will be with Suri. Poor thing...

7. A man was walking through Time's Square when the urine smell seeped into his brain and he thought he had a good idea. "we'll call it a musical!". And with that, Western Civilization began a slow and painful crawl toward extinction.

Ta!
