This is the first weekend in some time when we have more than a couple of new movies opening wide and it’s a weird one. We’ve got a powerhouse team of A-listers vying for first place against a 16 year-old musical phenom whose talent is, as least in the opinion of most adults and nearly all males, vastly less than phenomenal. Gotta love show biz.
Tag: Justin Beiber
When it came to musical biopics, in the past, it was traditional to leave out details considered scandalous about famous people. Now, of course, you need a certain amount of darkness and struggle to be credible. I mean, if you want to do a “warts and all” portrayal of someone too young, wholesome, and just plain lucky to be scandalous or starkly dramatic, you’re going to have add a wart or two.
Thanks to Babelgum Comedy for this.
Today we have two videos promoting upcoming films that I’m expecting to be deeply silly while exciting their core demographic to it’s very, er, core.
Via Mike Fleming, this first look online at Disney’s “Tron: Legacy” featuring the music of Daft Punk. I have to say, I recently took a second look at the original “Tron” and the less I say probably the better, but watching this doesn’t cause me pain. There was a 20 minute preview and I wonder how that would hold up.
Geek though I be, such is my dislike of the original “Tron” movie that I’d probably be more appropriate reviewer of the following movie: “Never Say Never” a music documentary/promotional vehicle starring the one, the only, Justin Beiber — because every generation needs its own Frankie Avalon.
After the flip, a bonus video which, given the title of the Beiber-flick, I’d really like to see Beiber perform. I mean, I know the Beiber “Never Say Never” is different, but it would certainly increase my respect for him if he could come up with a medley of his song and the one after the flip.
