The Film Thread

Its amazing. With my vertigo I shat myself through the whole thing

I know, bloody unbelievable. Can you imagine though, getting to the top and realising what you have accomplished. I couldn't look at Boulders Point, felt sick for him!!

I can't watch it. It's like those dick heads on Youtube running around the roofs of buildings, jumping between balconies and hanging off cranes. Turns my stomach.
 
Watched this once .....................never again

 
I just tried to watch West Side Story on Netflix. I managed 15 mins before giving up. I tried FFWD to see if there was actually any dialogue and there is, but I can't be arsed with it now. The dancing instead of fighting and the finger clicking was beyond irritating.
 
Heathen. West Side Story is the second best film musical of all time.

Err - that's because its a bloody musical.

It's like watching the greatest story ever told and moaning it was a bit religious.

And there wasn't any songs in the first 15 mins either. I'm a big fan of musicals. I just got irritated by this one.

The first full 5 mins for example is just a static picture with some lines on and some background music. Appalling.
 
Of all the answers that I could imagine you could say, I never would have guessed that answer in a million years, thank you :)
 
Muppets Christmas Carol, maybe. If that counts as a musical. Otherwise, they can get to fuck.
 
Muppets Christmas Carol isn't a musical imo. However, yes, agree, all musicals are shite. I even turn off the singing simpsons episodes.
 
Muppets Christmas Carol is literally a musical. When they stop talking normally to have a song and dance, then that's a musical.
 
Once More With Feeling (The Buffy episode) is one of my favourites.

Dr Horrible's Sing Along Blog is also excellent (and another by Joss Whedon).

Those two have the advantage of only being around 45mins long.

Grease
Singing In The Rain
Little Shop Of Horrors
Moulin Rouge
Dream Girls
Various Disney ones
Oh and Rocketman more recently was decent.

A mate of mine loves The Greatest Showman but I've not gotten round to that one yet.
 
Agreed. Musicals are fucking shite. I loathe them - twee nonsense.

Amen brother!

Musically they aren't as good as general music releases as they have to try and bend to some sort of content relating to the story and as an overall film/play the story doesn't flow as well because they keep shoehorning song/dance routines into inappropriate situations.

Aaah the old 'I don't like it. it must be shite' argument, what about Tommy, Jesus Christ Superstar, Hair ??
