Dance Zombies Dance
Everyone loves the Thriller music video, and if you say you’re not, I DON’T BELIEVE YOU. It’s such a cool music video for it’s time, and it holds up still today. Even the song is a lot better than the Christina/Britney/Justin crap that is being released today. Sure it’s from an era when MTV actually aired music videos, there were no such things as reality TV, and Michael was still black, but dammit, everyone loved Thriller.
Let’s look back. We’ve had musicals about cats, people can't pay their rent, and a Monty Python movie, why not Thriller? I’m not big on musicals in general. I’ve never watch The Sound of Music. I hated Grease. It will be a cold day in hell before I see Mama Mia, but dammit, I’ll go see Thriller the musical. I’m all for dancing zombies. Well except for the Indian version of Thriller, then again, I still have nightmares of the Indian Superman as well, but I digress. I’m all for a musical with zombies, and a werewolf. I just hope we don’t have to put up with a lot of screaming from the female victim, like in the music video,

I'm no Tommy Tune (whatever that means)
I started to write a post but it was absolute crap. This from a guy who tends to write random things on his blog, but I do have standards.
On thing I’ve noticed is the return of the spelling error. I ‘m so into getting my thoughts onto the screen that I don’t seem to give a crap about anything else. I’ll try and watch for it but for now DEAL WITH IT.
I was surfing for something to write about when it hit me in the face. Dirty Dancing; The Musical. ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? Now I have a friggin headache.
For the record, I’ve never seen the movie but it looks like a chick flick and I have no desire to see a chick flick. I WANT TO KNOW WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA!!!
Didn’t Lord of the Rings, the Musical close? That’s something I would have seen but, alas it wasn’t to be.
Now here’s an idea. Instead of doing Dirty Dancing, How about doing Star Wars: the original trilogy. The ‘I am your father’ number alone would be worth it, or maybe not.
Why is it that when I think of a musical I either think of that Buffy episode or Cop Rock. Oh and who the hell thought THAT was a good idea?
I need to confess something. Music is not my thing so I’m the last person who should be suggesting a musical. Though WWE The Wrestling Musical would be a train wreck worth seeing.
