Well, Disney had the formular down pat. And that formula was really wearing thin towards the end.

'Moulin Rouge' was a mess, iirc. I haven't seen it since it came out, but I remember almost walking out after 20 minutes of....SOMETHING...getting thrown at me. It was ok after you get past that opening bit. I will grant that the usage of the songs was pretty damn clever in alot of spots.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

New mission. Find the "right" musical for Rob and Judas.
Just curious, what about Little Shop of Horrors? Didn't like that one?- Francois de La RochefoucauldWe are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.Comment

I don't like the Baz Lurhman style at all. I tried watching Romeo & Juliet. Holy shit that was jaring. Of course, it was a little fun to notice Paul Rudd as the governor's son."Everything is amazing right now and no one is happy" - Louis C.K.Comment

I saw this in the theater. I liked the movie on a technical level, but I HATED the music to such a degree that I have no desire to ever watch it again.Originally posted by Hbarr View PostOriginally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

'South Park: BLU' was fantastic. Amongst other things, it tore down and parodied everything that I hate about musicals beautifully. This was one of the single best movie theater experiences of my life.
OK, there you go. There's my musical.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

I did like South Park. I actually owned that soundtrack. The songs made me laugh."Looking like Nic Cage dressed in Kurt Cobain's closet. I mean that as a compliment" - BillyG

*shakes head* You can still like/love/appreciate South Park:BLU but not "get" musicals. It's not your one.

For the record: I've seen live productions of musicals and enjoyed them. Amongst those that I've seen and enjoyed: 'The Producers', 'the Music Man', 'The Sound of Music', and 'Camelot'. Being there and experiencing it LIVE can be great.
Seeing them theatrically just doesn't work for me, sorry.Originally posted by MartinOriginally posted by gravediggerOriginally posted by MartinComment

Alright. I can agree with the sentiment (as I haven't seen a movie version yet, that is better than a live production).Originally posted by Judas Booth View Post- Francois de La RochefoucauldWe are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.Comment
