Neither of the Beatles films deserve to get this far, but the competition (due to the omission of some of the best musicals ever made) and the draw has played a major part......

imo

i agree. the beatles films were pretty poor but people are obviously voting on the songs

most votes by midnight Friday goes through

Les Frères Blues, pour moi.

Blues Bros

Blues bros

Both Beatles films have had ridiculously easy draws but more to the point htf has South Pacific lost to Frank n'Furter & co?
The Transsexual vote has obviously held up well

shock exit for last year's winner Paint Your Wagon too

No shock for me there, fine as PYW is I'd have had Grease outright fav from the very outset.

Blues Bros in tiebreak btw

Fiddler On The Roof

Ya ha deedle deedle, bubba bubba deedle deedle dum!

FFS i cannot see 'Oliver' anywhere.Dear God

I don't know what to say that's not going to make you feel stupid.

Listed under Lionel Barts Oliver, so it wan't confused with that facking Roman Polanksi sh1t.

Thanks TT and I'm right about that Holiday Inn thing, it's like feeding caviar to pigs. !!!

CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANF beat ABBA THE MOVIE 7-4 in round 1

Not in my house matey boy, reinstate it now or I'm kicking off.

Holiday Inn was 1942
White Christmas was 1954

I knew that thank you momm and was just testing.

I believe Clarky owes an apopopology.

How dare you.

Must go got to get the kids tea on

Yubby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dibby dum

Vote Fiddler you know it makes sense!

The think the Blues Brothers has already topoled Fiddler on the Roof. 5 - 1

Here goes... prices! Probably get knocked over on a couple here as I haven't seen them all.

11/8  Grease
5/2   This is spinal tap
7/1   Oliver
12/1  Rocky Horror  (lots of gayers on this site)
14/1  Help!
16/1  Blues Bros
25/1  Cabaret
25/1  White Christmas
50/1  Fiddler on the roof

each way 1/5 odds 1,2,3.

Fiddler On The Roof

Better put in vote for Blues Bros then. Don't want a Wagner/Dylan stitch up. [;)]

£1,000 e/w on Oliver! please [;)]

Mr Fishwick,

I voted for them because they're better than the films they were drawn against. I voted against the Beatles in the earlier rounds.

Anyway, as I said before, the best musicals ever are:
Cabaret, Grease, Oliver, and the ridiculously left out West Side Story.

So the fact that the included 3 are still in makes me right, and the whole competition is moot

I'm sure I remember seeing West Side Story in the original 64. What happened to it?

Bet's on Brodie, new prices....

11/8  Grease
5/2   This is spinal tap
9/2   Oliver
16/1  Rocky Horror  (lots of gayers on this site)
20/1  Help!
25/1  Blues Bros
25/1  Cabaret
25/1  White Christmas
50/1  Fiddler on the roof

Agreed, missing out on West Side Story was a bit of a c0ck up! I'm sure Mr Winkle will put the winner up against WSS at the end, Studyform, if you ask him nicely.

It wasn't there Momm, could have been 32 more imo. West Side Story, along with:
Anchor's Aweigh, The King and I, Annie, Meet me in St Louis, Calamity Jane, Little Shop of Horrors, nearly every Disney film (Jungle book, Aristocats, Dumbo, Pinocchio, Lion King, Lady and the Tramp etc etc etc), Mame, On The Town, Sweet Charity, Thoroughly Modern Millie, Brigadoon, and others I've probably forgotten.

I like (some) musicals.

Fiddler on the roof

pixie

11/8  Grease
7/1   Oliver

fiddler on the roof

I checked the nominations thread, Joel nominated West Side Story but I missed it.

Brigadoon should only allowed to enter once every 100 years and even thats too often.

There is no best musical film.  It's an oxymoron.  Like....

Blues Bros won the tie break

FINAL ROUND - 4 WINNERS GO THORUGH TO THE GRAND FINAL

or help !

why the (beatles) in brackets btw?
is there another musical called help?

To save the youngsters guessing, as they will be too lazy to look up who was in it.

I nominated both sides of this match in the opening post, but I like the Beatles more than I like Ron Moody, despite the fact he was brilliant in Oliver.

ollie reed was brilliant ,the kids ,the dancing etc.
in a different league to help

i love the beatles but come on

come on is by the rolling stones imo

come on is by chuck berry imo

Cabaret
Grease
Oliver
Rocky horror

7-4 to Oliver at the mo

If the money comes in for it it could end 13-8

sorry for the blatant ramping but i've got a £1k e/w on Oliver!

So, Mr Winkle are we going to find out who chit chat's best musical film is then? Or is the answer Bob Dylan?

Read the first post, and then you'll know.

Your topic title does not sit well with my pedantry and OCD.

Undoubtedly true.

I have since sacked my sexyterry.

How the feck are we meant to compare Schindler's List with This Is Spinal Tap?

Not my problem, it will be the viewers problem when the last 64 are ready to go to the polls.
