I take it we're all in agreement that

Hair

And South Park.

Cabaret is amazing. One of my favourite films ever. Bob Fosse is the best.

musicals are great

la la land will be inevitably shite because it’s about moaning people in hollywood and can’t possibly be as good as anything jacques demy did (from the trailer alone, it reeks of homage) or a star is born or singin in the rain/any other musicals about hollywood or for that matter

i like das boot

Pretty long though
