Aww, ok. Sorry you can't go. I guess I won't either. Oh well.

um, then may I sheepishly ask if anyone's interested in a substitute outting, sans Sherman Brother and (oh god, please don't tell me Julie Andrews showed up or I'll knife myself)??

This weekend or next perhaps?

Do I dare admit I've never seen Marry Poppins?

Oh wait, I just did.

I've still never seen Mary Poppins and I own the DVD.

Heheh, I've never watched the DVD I purchased. I'm trying to get over the fawlty display ratio issue. Hmmm, it'll be interesting to see what image ratio they use at the El Cap.

But I've seen Mary Poppins dozens of times .... the first during its original 1964 run at Radio City Music Hall. Some people say it drags in the third act - and it does take a dark and slowing turn there. Yet, that's a mere quibble to detract from one of the best movie musicals ever made ... and Walt Disney's most famous and successful live action picture is a true classic worth seeing on the silver screen.


Ooooh, and who can resist a sing-along?!?!

You know, it's the sing-along that's the biggest deterrent for me to see it. If I want to see the movie I want to hear Julie Andrews.

Well, Poppins has had dozens of theatrical re-releases. This one adds an element of incredible fun. If you haven't been to a sing-along movie, it's hard to imagine just how much fun it is.

But it is.




Next weekend. Saturday or Sunday, whichever gets the most votes in the next few days.

I can do Saturday. That's my vote!! :)
