Just... In general musicals never seem to advertise as musicals. I had no idea the new Mean Girls was a musical after watching the trailer, and only found out through word of mouth. The new Wonka was also a musical, I thought it would be cause the previous two were, but you never know. Trailer didn't seem to indicate. I just saw one the other day that looked like it was a musical cause it showed a lot of dance ensemble, which these trailers really should do. EDIT: IF. Thr new Ryan Reynolds movie about imaginary friends... is it a musical? A lot of ensemble dancing in the trailer but I don't see anything indicating it's a musical. Why can't musicals just be up front with this?

Thank you for this. I've been walking around saying "Why did they remake mean girls?!"

Guess I'm the jerk on this one ...
