Wow, the songs in this movie are really, really good. Those who haven't seen it should give it a chance and check it out. For those who HAVE seen it, what do you think of it?

As far as musicals go, it's Ok in my book.

It's definatly no Tommy, but it's pretty decent. Wouldnt mind watching it again. :P

I haven't seen the movie, but I saw the show on Broadway a few years ago. The cast did a spectacular job; it was a great show. I really enjoyed myself, but I haven't gotten around to renting the movie yet. I've heard it's quite good, but I'm uninterested for some reason.

I loved Rent! That was such an awsome movie and plus, the songs weren't all stupid and old like most musicals.

Yeah but no musical has a snowballs chance in hell of beating it as the single greatest musical in history. I mean how can Uncle Ernie ever be beaten as the single greatest uncle of all time?

On a serious note -My friend said it was good, but I'm not much into movies, or musicals for that matter

On a sane free note - AIDS!! EVERYONE HAS AIDS! I HAVE AIDS, MY DOG HAS AIDS, MY SISTER HAS AIDS, MY BROTHER HAS AIDS, AIDS!!

I saw it and honestly it just didn't really grip me. I have to say it doesn't hold a candle to rocky horror picture show.

It's been close before, with Jesus Christ Superstar.

But it still cant beat a movie with Elton John, Eric Clapton, Daltrey, Entwistle, Townshend, AND Moon all in one.

Then again...What can?

He cant.

Uncle likes to fiddle about.

And no uncle fiddles about like him. :P

If you're into musicals, it's good. I don't like musicals though, so I hated the movie as well. The whole plot is just rather ridiculous, and I got pretty bored.

And Tina Turner, Jack Nichlolas and Oliver Reed.
But David Bowie was actually ment to play the Acid Queen role. Which would have rocked.

I can totally imagine that, haha.

But Turner was a good replacement.

I always thought the Acid Queen scene was a little creepy. Especially with all the needles.

How do you think he does it?
I dont know!
What makes him so good?

That is what it was ment to be like. It was creppy for a reason.

Don't take drugs children. It turns you into Tina Turner

Not wearing fucking huge shoes?

My friend Justin and Kat, are huge Rent fans, and made me watch it. They decided I was cold and heartless because I wasnt crying like babies with them. And tried to defend it over the fact I cried over Crash. But that's illogical, cause Crash was sad, and AIDS is still funny to me. Sooo..
That didn't go over very well.

Well they did a great job on it. I always cringe on that scene.

My favorite was always when Clapton did Eyesight To The Blind, though.

It's a little funny, though. His playing doesnt match the song at all. :P

Not wearing fucking huge shoes?

Most likely. I always loved that scene, though. Had the best of the best.

Townshend smashing his guitar, and Moon kicking over his drums. Plus Elton John is always a plus.

My friend has the cassette tape with Elton John's cover of Pinball Wizard on it. It's a great track.

Daltrey sure played a deaf, dumb, and blind kid good. I swear he has the greatest vacant stare I've ever seen.

OUT OF RESPECT JUSTIN WAS GIVING ME FREE BOOZE, I did not. But I kept cracking jokes when they'd get all teary eyed and shit. Or I turned and started laugh and point at them crying.

Of course not. It is a movie, and since

Of course. A classic Who style with no gear smashing just isn't a classic Who style. And well, Elton John did have the world record for biggest glasses collection for a reason.

My friend has the cassette tape with Elton John's cover of Pinball Wizard on it. It's a great track.

Daltrey sure played a deaf, dumb, and blind kid good. I swear he has the greatest vacant stare I've ever seen.

"Tommy can you hear me!!"

And after looking up Ken Russel the director, I found this. And just had to post it.
Gotta love 80 year old dirty old men.
