Do you like musicals?

As a rule, I do not like them. Part of the movie watching experience is "suspension of disbelief". Not allowing yourself to think about the implausibility of a particular situation. I can't seem to suspend disbelief long enough to get past the fact that everyone knows the same song and same choreography. I find it implausible that people are having a normal conversation and break into song. If I was talking to someone on the street and they started singing and dancing, I'd think they were crazy and get far away from them. If I was talking to someone and EVERYBODY started singing the same song and doing the same choreography I'd assume I was crazy and check myself into a mental hospital. The only musicals I like are "Annie" and "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". Do you have an opinion about musicals in general?

I don't normally care for musicals myself, for many of the same reasons as you. It is pretty hard to believe sometimes. BUT one of my ultimate favorite movies is Grease. Go figure..lol

I like Grease too, LOL. I used to have the soundtrack on CD and listen to it on my way to work. It always put me in a good mood. :-)
