A lot of great young talent in that one! I still have yet to see Little Shop of Horrors which is weird, since I really love musicals overall. I might rent it now.

Then I tried to make it as different as possible, because I knew you were gonna make that allegation :P . But I swear, for once, I didn't do this one on purpose.<br /><br />(and remember... you can't copyright an idea... we had a whole podcast topic about it :P ).Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-75253878093024317112010-04-11T00:38:02.337-05:002010-04-11T00:38:02.337-05:00Oh, and damnit, you've copied another feature ...Oh, and damnit, you've copied another feature of mine.

It's ok, but Rick Moranis never did it for me and the girl is annoying (though that's probably intentional). I remember liking Steve Martin, though.<br /><br />Labyrinth is a terrible, terrible movie, but I was decades late to the party, so I understand if many have a nostalgia factor working on that one.Fletchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299302086449086987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-69921771907451321672010-04-10T05:39:04.230-05:002010-04-10T05:39:04.230-05:00Great idea with the years in film - I know the one...Great idea with the years in film - I know the ones missed (Platoon!) would be like a shining light of my lack of film knowledge.<br /><br />Maybe I should start in the 30's... see what comes up.

Needless to say, Audrey II scared the living shit out of me... it's no wonder I can't keep any house plants alive. I mean... I killed a ROSEMARY plant. I've heard those are damn near impossible to kill.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-12619025711458433902010-04-08T21:23:55.214-05:002010-04-08T21:23:55.214-05:00For me, it was the scene where Audrey sends her te...For me, it was the scene where Audrey sends her tendrils down and pulls herself across the room. I totally thought she could get to my bedroom if she could make a phone call!<br /><br />I LOVED suddenly seymour. Now whenever I see Ellen Greene in other movies or TV, I always think, Wow, Audrey did well for herself.

That scene where he calls Audrey from across the street, and she looks over and sees him laughing at her? That's one of the scariest scenes of any movie I have ever seen... and it's in a silly musical!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-11160087002404410902010-04-08T20:02:34.306-05:002010-04-08T20:02:34.306-05:00Totally.

We had the soundtrack on cassette tape, and I actually like some of the soundtrack a little more than the movie and wish they would have included it there (like the extended "Meek Shall Inherit"). We had the movie on VHS for years, and it's all pretty worn, I'm sure. But I own it on DVD now.<br /><br />I know the movie by heart and can sing you all the songs. I so love that movie.Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092564511948736386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-332312589214574085.post-41646120603391426062010-04-08T19:28:22.708-05:002010-04-08T19:28:22.708-05:00Nick, I LOVE Little Shop!
