The Film Thread

Have just purchased Blues Brothers from magpie then, will watch it some time this week I guess
 
Blues Brothers - Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles & James Brown - what's not to like

Plus a guest appearance from the majestic John Lee Hooker
 
The Great Outdoors is on ITV 4 at the moment.
 
I hope the OMG is aimed at Chicago, because Bugsy Malone is ace...
 
I like a good musical (and I include Frozen in that :))

I don't care how lame it makes me sound but I love Grease! I have done since I was about 8.

You know that amazon wish list of yours?

Nope, nor do I.
 
You can count the musicals I like on one hand. The classics like the wizard of Oz are ok, Sound of Music, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, the Lion King but any film trying to be an action movie where the characters burst into song like Bugsy or Oaklahoma are just gut wrenchingly bad. Cartoon musicals are more tolerable than live action generally.

Besides Julie Andrews was a fit un!

Musicals are excellent when done well. The songs need to be good and the characters not cheesy.
 
I love the musical episode of Buffy - Once More With Feeling.
