Musical Mondays Off-Week 9 (JammerLea's Pick)
Cakebug Tranch replied to Cameron H.'s topic in How Did This Get Made?
It's sort of both, Cam - a musical set in high school but also a musical about the AUDITION for a high school musical. We never get to see the actual musical, just the machinations that go into preparing for callbacks. I just watched this tonight. My kids loved it and danced like maniacs at the last song. My five year old daughter clapped happily and shouted 'yay hooray!' at the end of every song. We MIGHT have a ton to talk about next week, or we might not. I can't decide yet. It's certainly a thing, that's for sure. Oh, and Jammer? For picking this, I say...- 76 replies

Would it break your heart if I told you it's all an act? He's a very normal, rich white private-schoolboy from a wealthy family, who's still married to his high school girlfriend and mostly a fairly quiet homebody... -

I'm not 100% sure I've ever seen this all the way through. But I think I'm going to subject my kids to it tonight the way I did with Pete's Dragon. Nice pick Jam! -

I'm still mad at tomspanks and Cameron H for convincing me to watch this. It's dumbfounding in nearly every way.

Musical Mondays Week 9 Pete's Dragon (1977)
Cakebug Tranch replied to Cameron H.'s topic in How Did This Get Made?
I think I speak for all of us when I say that we NEED to know your detailed reaction on this movie, Taylor, so when work gets less busy, do us all a favour and have a watch, and post your reactions about the slavery and attempted dragon murder and corporal punishment and moustaches and song violence and rapey rednecks and rampant alcoholism and forgettable songs and Mickey Rooney - whenever you like. Weeks from now, I'll lead the charge in rekindling this thread just to hear your reactions to this thing.- 184 replies

With all these late posts (particularly Max and CamB), I'm becoming increasingly disappointed that these C+Os won't be read out on a podcast, ever. That's a shame, because this is AMAZING work. Well done, everyone!- 184 replies

So it's settled. We're all in full agreement. Tomspanks is STILL responsible for the very worst pick of all. No question or dispute. Good.- 184 replies

Cakebug Tranch replied to Cameron H.'s topic in How Did This Get Made?
I bet the energy of the show fucking EXPLODED after that. The actors must have loved it. I was in 'Death of a Salesman' in September 2002, and on the 1-year anniversary of 9/11, they enforced a minute's silence right before the curtain went up, completely destroying all the positive energy that had built in the audience prior to the show. It was not a good performance that night.- 184 replies

The deleted scene where Elliott, after leaving Pete, decides to take in a performance of 'Our American Cousin' was one of the more prudent cuts, I think.- 184 replies

Tom's note about Shelley Winters reminded me we hadn't dwelled on the fact that she'd gone from this: To this... To this. This isn't an aesthetic judgement: more to do with the precipitous descent from two-time Oscar winner to Mrs. Gogan. The moral? Be nice to your agent, I guess. Or don't pick film roles when you're high on PCP.- 184 replies
