Sweeny Todd The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Holy crap, when they said musical I was thinking... Grease or something, every other word in Sweeny Todd is a song.. Man.. lots of singing.

But was it good?

lol my wife and I fell asleep about half way through.

I mean it is ok so far, but the entire movie dialogue is basically sung.

It was a musical and they just turned it into a movie... like Chicago... so yes, lots of singing.

Yea I understood it was a musical but Grease is a musical and didnt have nearly as much singing.

I fucking hate musicals. I mean i really fucking hate them. New years a few years ago at MY house some people had the idea of watching the nightmare before christmas, I watched about 20 minutes of it and left the room to go get fucked on my own.

Now recently I was dragged to see another Tim Burton musical, this one in fact. Wow lets get things straight - musicals are for gays. So now imagine my horror and shame when I actually didn't mind Sweeney Todd....
And a Tim Burton film!! I mean come on... He ruined batman! Something that is pretty much impossible....
