  • ThatGuyWithTheAccent89  - Exelente Review
    I could be the first to comment, but no, I Rather See The Video First!! anyway,
    gracias Dudette, y por cierto tus ediciones son simplemente geniales. :cheer:
  • Richard Wesker
    You know, I'm probably going to get slammed for saying this, but that Troll 2
    clip at 4:29 got me thinking that there really are worse films than Troll 2 in
    existence. Xanadu is one of them. At least Troll 2, in all its flamboyant
    badness, is campy fun.



    Anywho, good video as always!
  • BadEnglishGuy  - Worse movies
    If you fought troll 2 was the worst until now, you've never visited

    This is simply amazing. I had to register just to comment. I have very fond
    memories of this movie's horribleness. I saw it as a midnight movie with my
    friend about two years ago, and it was a gateway to tons of future midnight
    movies (including Rocky Horror Picture Show). I dont think Ive ever laughed that
    hard since.



    Two. Thumbs. Up.
  • TheDramaticMonarch
    Hey now, Lindsay, "Rocky Horror Picture Show" was a musical that had
    aliens (from the planet Transexual Transylvania no less ;)).



    With that little nitpick out of the way, your Zeus voice is hilarious. I'm
    definitely curious to see what that next review entails. Probably to do with
    aliens and robots...and destruction. ;) :P
  • Demon
    Ah, but it was a 70's musical with aliens.
  • Exorph
    Actually, it's the planet Transexual in the galaxy of Transylvania. ;)
  • TheDramaticMonarch
    Now that sounds a little more accurate! Thanks for the correction!



    Late nights can do strange things to the brain's judgement. :P
  • orwellianson
    :X Another fabulous funny jab at all things nostalgic... thanks Nostalgia Chick
    (Lindsay) This was hilarious as always. :)
  • DanManX
    I was gonna point out the Rocky Horror thing, but Monarch beat me to it (darn
    you!) and with the line at the end "Next...rebellion! And robots and
    aliens!" I have to wonder if maybe you've found an example anyway, Rocky
    Horror or otherwise. What have you got up your slee-

  • xmrgrim13x
    look i own the soundtrack and i am proud to say that...........well i like it we
    will leave it at that
  • Manic Monkey
    Magic is a pretty good song. :)
  • TheBlackMage
    I actually did my own version of the script. It was a lot funnier, contained a
    lot more filthy language, had no musical numbers and made a LOT more sense...
    but it probably would have ended up being 30 minutes in length. In my version of
    the script Sonny realizes he's not actually in love with one of the daughters of
    the greek God Zeus, he's actually just on drugs.
  • mc3s
    Awesome video as always. However, ELO has and always will suck. Soft pansy rock
    devoid of anything that makes music great. Gene Kelly kicks ass though.

    Now that I have that out of my system, I watched this movie as a kid. I wish I
    could say I hated it but........ It was one of those things where I thought all
    the cool older kids liked it so I should like it too.
  • Deimos1984rd  - What a trippy movie
    Since when did Olympus look like TRON?
  • BlueGoldBizarros
    I would hate to see want Asgard would have looked like in this movie! :X
  • Hisui
    Woahmahgawd.
    I'm SO glad that this movie has never been aired in Germany (or I at least never
    noticed it airing), because it's just so ... so ... so XANADU!
    Thank you for warning me, Nostalgia Chick. Thank you so much.
  • JimmyLick  - Musical With Aliens
    Little Shop of Horrors was a musical with aliens. (Yes, Audrey II was an alien.)
  • Floweramon
    Awesome review Miss Lindsay! Odd looking movie, though the stage show seems
    interesting. Sad about the lack of aliens though, even the title sounds like
    there should be aliens or something sci-fi related.

    You certainly weren't a gentleman on the chat Dan... :P jk

    Creepy fanboy behavior aside, can't wait for your next review NChick!
  • Chosen Zelos
    I know Xanadu's a Rush song and .... that's it. And from the look of this movie,
    I can say I wasn't missing much.

    Nice review.
  • Coldguy
    80s...and robots....and aliens....!

    THE LAST STARFIGHTER!
  • A Knothole Resident
    What were you alluding to at the end of the video there? Looking all coy ;)
  • masterem243  - Great new Review!
    I'm really liking the occasional NYC Live shots you do!
  • Erinaceus  - This Thing WAS A Last-Ditch Attempt Alright...
    This wasn't justa last ditch attempt to save roller skates, discos and Olivia Newton-John's
    career... I think it was just the last gasp of the 1970s in general. Every
    decade has this awkward transition period from the previous decade that ends
    when some benchmark event occurs. The '90s were killed by the 2000 election,
    the '80s were killed by "Smells like Teen Spirit"... etc.

    But the 1970s? This stilted play spelled its end. Good review N.C.

    Next... rebellion, and robots and aliens!

    What could it be? I have a pretty good guess, but with bated breath, I shall be
    waiting anyway.

    "Next...rebellion! With robots and aliens"



    Rebellion? Robots? Aliens? The 80's? Is this adding up to what I think it's
    adding up to? Or are you totally tossing us a red herring here?
  • Lew the Sweater Guy
    Wow. I've heard this movie was one big fustercluck, but wow!

    Oh well...ELO still flippin' rawks! :D
  • leviathan-ley
    Wonderful job and of things I was expecting from this movie Greek gods was not
    one of them.
