Dreamgirls was a great musical.

Yes. Jennifer American Idol stole the show from Beyonce.

Blind Man: "And now, for our lesson. Remember, this is bread"
Monster: "Ungh Bread      Ungh"
Blind man: "And this is wine  - to drink"
Monster: "Drink "
Blind man: "Drink!"   
*clink galasses in toast*
Monster: * glug glug *    " GOOOood"
Blind man: "We are friends, you & I"     "Friends"
Monster: "Friends, ungh ha ha"
Blind man: "Good"
Monster: "Good"
Blind man: "And now, for a smoke."
*Lights match - monster gets fearful over the fire*
Monster: "Ungh  uUUUUuuungh"
*Blind man chuckles and says *  "No No, this is good, smoke, you try"
*  Hands monster cigar *
Monster: "Smoke"
*Monster starts puffing away *
monster: "mmm mmmm MMMMM MMMMM MMMMM   GOOOOOOD  Goo *chortle, chortle* ood"

LMFAO - These were made as horror flicks, but the comedy aspect is unmatched - LOL
Karloff is a supreme actor. I'd forgotten how good these flicks were. These were on "Saturday at the Bijou" when I was a kid. It's good to see them again.
:)

lol. Synchronicity. I've got TCM on. Recorded both Frankenstein movies. Right after I read that the scene came on.

But every time I watch the original I think of the scene in Young Frankenstein. So classic

Not a lot of musicals I like but I do like this one.  Mainly for the historical view  But also Tevya (Topol) is so great

My wife's favorite musical and maybe mine too.  I saw it at the drive-in in California when I was 5 or 6.  To be truthful,  it was rather boring to me at the time.  Now I like it a lot.  I don't care for the big glossy MGM musicals for the most part.  I do love Busby Berkeley and Fred Astaire though.

42nd Street. Best musical of all time. Along with a few others

I see the Black Cat is on now.  That is my favorite Karloff/Lugosi film.   I used Karloff's Poelzig as an avatar once upon a long ago.

Please don't change. I love seeing Valentino

Just caught Interstellar on Prime.

I can not believe I did not watch that sooner. Loved it. Then again, I`m a big Matthew McConaughey fan.

I think Grease is the best of all time.

I finally got around to watch Suicide Squad, and the warnings here was accurate. I did like the Will smith character, and Harley Quinn is certainly a character that I am interested in seeing more of. But the story never grabbed me. I did watch it on 3D and there really wasn't a point as it didn't really utilize it all that well. Oh yeah and the Joker was pretty shrug worthy, but I guess it's almost impossible to follow Nicholson and Ledger Joker

Will Smith was good in this..as a Harley fan.,.i was disappointed..i do not like this version of her and while the actress had a pretty solid look..she wasnt right for the role and for some reason..kept losing the accent

Nah. I'm sticking with Valentino.  Maybe during October,  I'll use something more sinister but that'll be merely for the season.

Grease is fun but 42nd Street is also fun and a piece of art.  I still sing the songs from Grease though.  If I had to pick my favorite music from a musical, I'd pick Xanadu for the ELO stuff. The movie is garbage though save for the Don Bluth animation sequences.

Reviews for The Blind Dead horror movies and The Snake God are up on the Bellgab Classic Playhouse thread.

I think I'll check it out at the $1 theater mainly to watch Harley Quinn.  That chick is hot, hot, hot plus I prefer bad girls.

i like Grease..didn't used to..absolutely hate Grease 2..but not just cause it's bad

Music Man isn't bad either

Art Bell: the Musical

What scenes would it include?

Another one of my favorite musicals.  Robert Preston shines in that one and later played basically the same role in The Last Starfighter.

I Quit?

That would be the refrain that plays throughout the entire musical.
I'm thinking a tango for that song.



trostol

honestly i would say my favorite soundtrack from a musical is Tommy

lol. Actually that would be a great comedy musical number. Just quick cuts to different sets wearing different outfits from each era as the Art Bell character sings. And quits.

We need the Area 51 call number

Who would play Art Bell?  How about Gerard Butler from the Phantom of the Opera
