My Thoughts:
- I remember when this aired on TV. My family recorded it...on our VCR!
- This was a light, happy, and silly movie with quite the cast lineup!
- This is the 2nd remake of this? Where are the other 2?
- Is that really Whitney's hair?
- How did a black woman and a white guy have an Asian son?
- Brandy has an airy/rasp voice that I like, but at times it gets a bit whiny.
- I liked how the prince and Cinderella had an encounter in the town. It was still insta-love, but at least they had more than 1 meeting.
- The dances at the ball looked boring before Cinderella arrived.
- I like the prince's voice. I usually don't like tenors as much, but his was nice.
- Brandy's braids are too perfect.
- Lionel was some fun slap stick.
- All the ladies have crazy socks.
- Too bad Whitney ruined her voice.
- The songs were good. I liked the music.
- Bernadette Peters was fantastic!
Hubby's Thoughts:
- Their house looks like it could be a candy shop.
- The step mom is more attractive than her daughters.
Tyson's Thoughts:
- That prince has jungle fever!
- I don't know if Brandy is attractive or not. She has nice skin but somethings off.
- Ah! Whoopi Goldberg! You're golden!
- The step mom is more attractive than her daughters.
- Whitney's hair looks like a fern.
- I like the fairy godmother dress. It's so shiny and smooth.
- I like that blue dress.
- Whoopi seems like she'd be fun to hang out with.
- You think Cinderella smells like pumpkin after sitting in that coach?
- I wonder if kissing Cinderella would taste like chocolate.
- This was enjoyable. It was the better Rodgers and Hammerstein.
- Jason Alexander just didn't fit for me.
- There's some bass in that tenor. It sounds kind of stringy. I don't know what I'm talking about.
I love this movie! I grew up watching all the ABC Family musical remakes (Annie and The Music Man), and I think this was my favorite. I did always find it funny that an African American woman and a Caucasian (not to mention homosexual) man managed to have Filipino son, but I've learned not to question some things in musicals (:
ReplyDeleteThis is actually the third movie version of the musical. The first was in the 50's w/ Julie Andrews, then one in the 60's, and then this one. I have to say that out of the three, this is my favorite!
