Best ever musical film?
 

Pitch Perfect:worship:

7 brides

Mamma Mia or Rock of Ages for me

Oliver!

Duh

Oliver



as a child this mesmerised me

Obviously it's Singin' in the rain.

Grease will always be the most iconic.

To teenagers. Not as good when you've grown up.

The Sound of Music…followed by Grease.

Bugsy Malone
Greatest Showman
Phantom Of the Opera
The Wiz
Hairspray

La La Land is really excellent (no relation I promise :joker: )

Not only is it a good story with good music it's wonderfully shot too. Damien Chazelle is a fantastic director. Makes Los Angeles look beautiful.

Cabaret is another great one too, although I hate how dumbed down/glamourized it is compared to the actual theatre show version. That's so, so dark.

Has to be Oliver for me and Phantom of the Opera.

I went to see that in the West End coupla weeks back :D sooo good.

Top 10


Singin' in the rain
The Wizard of Oz
Willy Wonka and the chocolate factory
The Sound of Music
Mary Poppins
Cabaret
The Blues Brothers
The Fiddler on the roof
My Fair Lady
La La Land


Honorable mentions. A night at the Opera, Meet me in St Louis, West Side Story, A hard days night, Oliver, All that Jazz and Distant voices, still lives.

Honorable mention to West Side Story (1961)

Niamh said that number 1 is The Commitments

Bugsy Malone of course.

I'm surprised no one hasn't mentioned The Lion King already.

I was thinking about putting some animation ones in, Snow White and the seven dwarfs, Pinocchio, The Jungle Book, The Lion King. But I decided to leave them under the animation genre.

she is wrong and should be made to resign as a mod for that abusive opinion :nono:

It would be between My Fair Lady and Finian's Rainbow for me.

I really like the vast majority of musicals however.

i can't abide musicals, so there is no answer to this question :smug:

Love the one with Liza Minnelli. I've always been a big fan.
Anything with her I love.

Grease and Dirty Dancing.
