I will admit that I lazily used this thread to just remind me of musicals that exist and that I might want to watch before voting.

I love Hedwig and the Angry Inch and have since it first came out. Like you say, the music is great and the writing is really fun. For several years I enjoyed describing myself as being in "my early...

We owned this on VHS when I was a kid, and my sister loved it, so we watched it all the time. I sometimes hum the "Money cat can" song (and specifically when one of my students is struggling, the...

LOL. I'm trying to remember how I felt about it. Looks like I gave it 3.5. I preferred Pygmalion, which is the same story but not a musical.

You're basically in a marathon of movies you aren't enjoying for the most part. Maybe he just needed a pep talk from the master of endurance!

Stingray Sam ending up as the #1 musical in the countdown would be an amazing plot twist. Take that, The King and I!

Weirdly, it's Dom DeLuise of all people as Itchy that I always gravitated to the most. And I love the performance of the alligator.

I'm sure you're familiar with the tragic backstory of the child...

This film was so intense for me as a kid! Like you, I watched it quite a lot. I thought it had great characters, aside from obnoxious "sexy" heaven poodle.

I really enjoyed Once when it first came out (and of course it had a ton of buzz). But I've never felt any particular desire to revisit it.

Right. I think it's important to note that tick tick BOOM was written by the protagonist himself! You sort of have to filter in the fact that this is from his own point of view about how he behaved,...

I think that I empathized more with his character because I watched a few friends go through something similar. There's this sense that you have to "make it", and that becomes a consuming urgency.

I concede that it is a very . . . distinct sound and that it is definitely not for everyone. It's one of those songs that I heard under special circumstances, and so some of my affection for it is...

It has a low-budget passion project energy and look that I found very appealing. I was in college when I first watched it, and I just hadn't seen anything like it before.

My sister and I watched this over and over as kids. The song "Money Cat" is really catchy. Mewsette is a very annoying "dumb blonde" stereotype protagonist, though, so be warned.
