(Well, maybe The Apple...).<br /><br />I have no idea why, but I garner an inordinate amount of pleasure out of Xanadu and Can't Stop The Music. Yes, I admit it.<br /><br />So don't you feel bad about Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band. :)<br /><br />And, heck, it could have been worse. We could have both admitted a secret love for Staying Alive!! (And then we'd have to reckon with David Denby!)<br /><br />best,<br />JohnJohn Kenneth Muirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15629979615332893780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-32176793563913930922009-07-24T15:17:35.825-04:002009-07-24T15:17:35.825-04:00This was hilarious!

I grew up on that movie and just adore it endlessly. However, I do realize I am in the minority. I mean even the people who were in the movie dislike it! Still, I can't help it.<br /><br />I'm also all about Can't Stop the Music. It's utterly horrible, but what an awesome time capsule. I mean, even the movie missed its own era. It came out as disco was on its last legs. I think I read somewhere that it bombed in every country it played in except Australia who apparently want to keep the beat going!<br /><br />Also, how can you say no to Bruce Jenner in cut-off shorts?<br /><br />Great post John!Amanda By Nighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01910620012465381103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12380553.post-5128605844222809362009-07-23T19:54:55.362-04:002009-07-23T19:54:55.362-04:00Truly wonderful and terrifying stuff, Sir John Ken...Truly wonderful and terrifying stuff, Sir John Kenneth Muir.<br /><br />But you really should have warned us about that guy's posing pouch in The Apple clip.
