Moony: ok, so the film
Spoony: YES the film
Moony: it was just as good as the play, i was so excited!!!!
Spoony: i know!!! it was BRILLIANT!
Moony: it was so gorey!!!
Spoony: i was so happy that my expectations weren't shattered!
Moony: *loves x0q29387401923874019238740918237509182374098uwe
Spoony: and omb yes! *loves the blood*
Spoony: let's start from the beginning of the film, shall we?
Moony: sure
Moony: first off
Moony: i was bummed that they didn't SING the opening bit during the credits but was at leaset pleased that they left in the tune
Spoony: omfrrf - but once i got into the movie, it seemed like it flowed... i think the ballads are too stagey for film
Moony: i wanted the ship that anthony & st rode in on in the beginning
Moony: that's true
Moony: first first off, there were too many previews, but i saw lewds of new movies i wanna see rofl
Moony: but then, i decided that i'm ok with hbc's singing
Moony: it ended up better than i thought, judging by previews & stuff
Moony: and when they threw anthony out into the street, the judge & beadle, i mean
Moony: taht was like
Spoony: i know!!!
Spoony: *loves*
Moony: i wanted to steal beadle's cane x2 though
Moony: and so did jon
Moony: and mum
Moony: i even got used to how girly anthony looked rofl
Moony: and...
Moony: i'm ashamed to admit that i kinda started to think he's kinda cute
Moony: *is shamed*
Spoony: *pets*
Moony: i was NOT disappointed with green finch
Spoony: neither was i - love her voice *nods*
Moony: it seemed like they cut part of the song
Moony: her voice was perfect
Spoony: they did
Moony: she was a much better johanna than in the 82 one
Moony: i figured they did
Moony: i'm glad they did
Moony: they cut part of have a little priest too
Moony: i noticed
Moony: ok
Moony: and when he killed pirelli
Spoony: OMB I LOVED THAT
Moony: i went :O
Moony: ME TOO
Moony: he wailed onhim with that kettle
Moony: i was like AWESOME
Spoony: i was too! twas bril
Moony: then when he started climbing out of the chest and sweeney took his forehead in his hand & bent his head back & cut and it SHOWED IT ALL i was like OMB THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD X2!!!
Moony: alright, pirelli's miracle elixir
Moony: i liked
Moony: but i wish they'd had the audience participate in the song like they did in the play
Moony: but it was ok how it was
Moony: the contest
Moony: was perfect
Moony: sacha baron cohen was PERFECT
Moony: they did a SUPERB job of casting this film
Moony: i woudlnt've changed a single actor
Moony: they were all PERFECT for their roles
Spoony: neither would i *nods*
Moony: timothy spall
Spoony: omfrrf!
Moony: he should win an oscar for his part
Moony: he was the most perfect beadle anyone could hope for
Spoony: that's timothy spall for you!
Moony: yes!
Moony: i LOVED him
Moony: in it
Moony: he was PERFECT X2
Moony: ok, let's see
Moony: skipping forward...
Moony: i wasn't upset that they left out judge's johanna
Moony: because of how PERVY they made him out to be in other ways
Moony: i mean
Moony: dont get me wrong, i love that part
Spoony: neither was i - they characterized the judge well without the song
Moony: exactly
Spoony: i understand
Moony: ok
Moony: pretty women
Moony: i had chills
Moony: it was so amazing
Spoony: that's my favorite song of the film - and not because AR sings in it
Moony: i LOVED the way the chair dumped the people on their heads after he'd slit their throats
Moony: lol yeah
Spoony: omfrrf!
Moony: that was BRIL with the chair
Moony: i LOVED that
Moony: the crunching sound when their heads hit the pavemenet bnelow
Moony: i loved it
Spoony: yeah!
Moony: skipping forward again, i wasn't bummed that they left out god that's good
Moony: although i wished they'd left it in, but i wasn't really bummed that they left it out
Moony: cause it was obvious even without the song that everyone loved her pies, and that she could tell when she was gonna get more meat for a pie without the knocking 3 times bit
Spoony: mhmm! and i always found it odd that she had a booming business, but Sweeney had just got his chair THAT day... in the play at least
Moony: yeah
Moony: i liked the way they did it in the film, it was great
Moony: ok
Moony: now
Moony: sweeney's johanna
Moony: i loved, of course, it's one of my favourite parts
Moony: but i was bummed that they didn't make the part where that guy came in for a shave & his family came with him funny like it was in the play
Moony: but still
Moony: alright
Moony: now to the pinacle
Moony: turpin's death
Moony: i almost exploded
Moony: it was AMAZING
Moony: what did you think?
Spoony: OMB I KNOW
Spoony: my heart was pounding the entire way through, and when Sweeney finally stabbed him i was like "OMB AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!"
Moony: SAME HERE!!
Moony: then he stabbed him like 10938471092834 more times
Moony: THEN he slit his throat
Moony: and he's all sputtering & stuff
Spoony: and then after he was done stabbing, and the Judge was gasping, Sweeney just whipped around and slit his throat
Moony: then he fell on his head
Spoony: i KNOW!!!!
Moony: i was like
Moony: YES
Moony: I TWAS THE BEST
Moony: ok
Moony: mrs lovett's death
Spoony: heh heh heh
Moony: i loved it all up till theys howed her burning body
Moony: that part was awesome, but kinda cheesy
Spoony: *snort* i know
Moony: sweeneys' death
Spoony: but i guess they wanted to match the blood - cause that was comical as well
Moony: i was a LITTLE disappointed
Moony: because he didnt' make it very obvious that he WANTED tod ie
Moony: i mean, he tipped his head back to give toby room to slash
Moony: but i liked in the play when he like, pulled down his collar & stuff
Spoony: yeah..
Moony: did you see it twice?
Spoony: naw - we didn't get the chance to
Moony: neither did we
Moony: i wanted to
Spoony: but i'm seeing it with my mom again on wednesday or thursday
Spoony: awwwww *pets*
Moony: but i had crap to do after we got home, i'd promised my aunt that i'd go shopping with her xmas shopping
Moony: ROFL i wanan see it again, but that's a logn drive
Moony: it was TOTALLY worth it
Moony: but it took an hour & a half to get there
Spoony: damn O.o
Moony: cause it was rainy & i dont like speeding in the rain
Moony: last time i went to buford, i got there in 45 minutes lol
Moony: this time, twice as long rofl
Moony: but it was totally worth it
Moony: with the johanna thing at the end
Moony: i loved that
Spoony: yeah!
Spoony: what did your mom and jon think of the film?
Moony: they both loved it as muchas i did
Spoony: whooooo!
Moony: so
Moony: YOUR thoughts
Spoony: yay! tis my turn!
Spoony: *starts from beginning*
Moony: lol kk
Spoony: the opening credits - with the blood dripping down and stuff
Spoony: very Burton-y - i think it was a good choice the use that, especially with the ballad, because it reminded me of a story book... like it was introducing the movie, just like the ballad would have done
Moony: yeah, that was perfect, i forgot to mention that part
Moony: you'll probably mention all the parts i left out by accident rofl
Spoony: *snort*
Spoony: k - the ship
Spoony: *loves the ship*
Moony: ME TOO
Spoony: that's all i have to say about that really - except when Anthony started singing, i kind of wanted to punch him
Spoony: but then i got over it, and i got used to him
Moony: ROFl you did?
Moony: howcome?
Spoony: i dunno - i just wanted to
Spoony: but like i said, i got over it
Moony: did it bother you or something?
Spoony: his singing didn't bother me - i can't explain it really
Moony: lol
Moony: s'alright
Moony: continue!
Spoony: k!
Spoony: worst pies in london *snort*
Spoony: ewwwwwwwww
Moony: I KNOW ALL THE BUGS BARF
Moony: and the pies were gross looking too, but we already knew they were gonna be rofl
Spoony: yeah! and that's when i started liking HBC's voice... or at least, got used to it
Moony: same here
Spoony: her singing coupled with her acting made it work
Moony: yeah it did!
Moony: i didn't like it at the very first of it, but by the time that song was over i liked it
Spoony: k - poor thing
Spoony: with the judge holding out the flowers, and the ball sequence
Moony: ah i forgot about that part!
Moony: yeah, i was ok with the way they changed it to the flower tower crap
Spoony:
Moony: i didn't think i would be, but i was
Spoony: yay!
Spoony: when the Judge first held out the flowers i was like, "awwww! i'll take them for you!"
Spoony: he looked so forlorn!
Moony: yeah he did, but twas all an aact
Moony: OMB I FORGOT TO MENTION
Spoony: ?
Moony: in the end, when st revealed himself as barker to turpin
Spoony: yesh?
Moony: when the realization hit turpin's face...
Moony: it was PERFECT
Spoony: omb i know
Moony: and btw, i am infinitely glad they didn't ruin this film like they did with rent, by changing singing to monologue/dialogue
Spoony: ugh, i know
Moony: st was tons better
Spoony: my expectations for the film were exceeded
Moony: same here
Moony: an that's saying something
Moony: cause my expectations were pretty high
Moony: it was so perfect
Spoony: mine too!
Moony: even the dialogue (non-singing)
Moony: theyd idn't change a whole lot of it
Moony: i was so glad
Moony: oh yeah
Moony: by the sea
Moony: i loved
Moony: x2
Moony: k, sry
Spoony: that made me laugh hardcore
Moony: continue
Spoony: sokey
Moony: ME TOO
Spoony: k - back to poor thing
Moony: k go
Spoony: the ball sequence
Spoony: *loved*
Moony: *also loved*
Spoony: those costumes were AMAZING
Moony: i wanted to go to a masque like that
Moony: YEAH THEY WERE
Moony: beautiful
Moony: in a dark way, too
Moony: yet again, perfect!
Moony: and when turpini swooped down on lucy
Spoony: OMB I KNOW
Moony: i just wanted to scream along with st
Moony: OH YEAH
Moony: i forgot to say, i was kinda bummed with the alms alms part, cause she didn't do the whorey bit
Moony: continue
Spoony: my friends
Spoony: i think that was one of JD's best songs *nods*
Moony: yes, i agree
Moony: i forgot about that part
Moony: my friends was so beautiful
Moony: it brought a tear to my eye
Spoony: i usually skip it on the CD, but i like Depp's version
Moony: ME TOOO!!!!
Spoony: oh - the fact that sweeney didn't look at lovett at ALL during that song was brilliant
Moony: during my friends?
Moony: yeppers
Spoony: yup!
Moony: me too
Spoony: i was mildly disappointed that they didn't keep in the alms alms bit... the whole bit where the beggar woman wanted Anthony to shag her
Spoony: *sad*
Moony: yeah, me too
Spoony: but then i was like, "meh, the movie's good so far, i can deal"
Moony: but she was perfect with the city on fire bit
Spoony: i LOVED the city on fire bit
Spoony: OMB SKIPPING AHEAD
Spoony: FOGG'S DEATH
Spoony: *dies laughing*
Moony: I KNOW
Moony: i really loved that!
Moony: they changed it from the play, but i still loved it
Spoony: i loved it too, and i'm kind of glad
Moony: yeah, i hated that johanna killed him in the play
Spoony: the way that Johanna was portrayed, i couldn't really see her shooting someone
Moony: yeah
Moony: i loved how she was portrayed
Moony: in the film
Moony: she was perfect
Spoony: omfrrf!
Moony: they all were
Spoony: k - the whole gandered scene
Spoony: *DIES 837408723487324 TIMES*
Moony: mm-hmm
Moony: *SAME*
Moony: i loved that part so much!
Spoony: i know i saw part of it online, but the before and after bits were GREAT
Moony: yeah!
Moony: i saw the same bit onlnie you did, you gave me link
Moony: but the whole thing together
Moony: was so great!!!
Spoony: one of my friends was like, "omg, he's asking if he wants to see his PORN"
Moony: and i loved the way they threw anthony out
Moony: ROFL YEAH PORN
Spoony: i was like, "i KNOW, isn't it GREAT???"
Moony: he's like...drawings, anything you could psosibly dream of doign....with a woman
Moony: i was like WHOA PERV!!!
Spoony: yeah!!!
Spoony: and the look that he gave to the beadle signalling to throw anthony out.... gah
Moony: YEAH!!!!
Moony: gah i wish i could see it again!
Moony: i cannot WAIT till it goes on dvd
Spoony: omb i know
Spoony: *snort*
Moony: i'll buy it the day it comes out & watch it 129374109238471029835610293847019560192384701923847109285610923847102937856109283741956108923750179346019823470 times in a row
Spoony: when anthony was getting beaten up by the beadle, and afterwards where he's coughing and trying to get up, one of my other friends was like, "jesus, he's such a pansy"
Spoony: i was like, "yeah... let's see how you'd do if YOU got bludgeoned by a cane 873498273482374 times"
Moony: i laughed out loud when they threw his bag on his head & he fell again
Spoony: i did too
Moony: people looked at me
Spoony: everyone in the theatre did
Moony: I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!!
Spoony: awwwww! *pets*
Moony: it was funny
Spoony: it WAS!
Spoony: people laughed when he started singing too - they couldn't believe that after he got hit with the cane 208472304 times, he actually started to sing
Spoony: that's a musical for you
Moony: ROFL YEAH!
Spoony: pirelli's miracle elixir
Moony: yesh
Moony: elixir
Spoony: toby's adorable
Moony: isn't he???
Moony: *loves*
Spoony: and i loved that they kept in the "pardon me ma'am, what's the awful stench?" bit
Moony: YEAH!!!
Moony: well, they kinda had to
Spoony: true - but still
Moony: with the smels like piss stuff....there had to be a reason for the contest to take placd!
Moony: but i'm glad they didn't change it
Spoony: omb (skipping back) - have i mentioned how much i loved AR's mask during the ball sequence?
Moony: you didnt
Moony: but i laughed till i nearly peed cause of the nose
Spoony: i know!!! it's like, "hey, we know you have a huge honker - let's make fun of it!"
Spoony: *loves*
Moony: right!!
Moony: it was great
Moony: ok, continue
Spoony: the contest
Spoony: *dies*
Moony: yeah
Spoony: i loved sacha!
Spoony: that high note was even better on the big screen
Moony: YEAH IT WAS!
Moony: everyone laughed
Spoony: my friend was like, "holy ****"
Spoony: k - Pirelli's death scene... and the stuff right before it
Spoony: i was surprised that they decided to make Pirelli a regular brit and not irish, but it didn't really bother me THAT much
Moony: yeah, that was weird at first, but oh well
Moony: probably sacha coudlnt' pull off the irish accent
Moony: cause it sounded like he was trying
Spoony: maybeh...
Spoony: and then the death scene
Spoony: we've already talked about how much we love it
Moony: lol yeah
Moony: twas bril
Spoony: ladies in their sensitivities
Spoony: *snort*
Spoony: i thought it was ****larious when AR brushed his coat and this big puff of dust appeared
Moony: ROFLMMFAO yeah!
Moony: it had to be powder or something, but that was FUNNY
Moony: i was like DUDE how the hell long has taht been hanging in yoru closet since you last wore it that it's that dusty???
Spoony: and the look on his face when he does that is priceless
Moony: yeah
Spoony: then after that came pretty women, and then i died
Spoony: it was funny - you know the part of pretty women where the camera is closing in on AR and JD, and you can see AR's pants under the white sheet?
Moony: lol yeah
Moony: what about it?
Spoony: my friend turned to me and whispered, "jesus - for a minute, i thought that he took off his pants! those are so damned TIGHT!"
Spoony: *dies laughing*
Spoony: and when you first saw his pants (i think it was during the gandered scene), she was like, "holy feck - those pants look REALLY uncomfortable!"
Spoony: she couldn't get over how tight his pants were *snort*
Moony: ROFL YEAH
Moony: they were REALLY tight
Spoony: hee hee
Moony: he would've had to wear a cup underneath to keep them from cutting off circulation to important things!
Spoony: omfrrf!
Moony: when i first saw him open the door of his house when anthony was gandering, my first thought was 'omb he looks like in dogma when he wore the codpiece
Moony: remember that?
Moony: that's what those pants looked like
Spoony: of course!
Moony: well
Moony: that's what his bits looked like IN those pants, at least
Spoony: *snort* yeah!
Moony: ok, sooooo continue your movie review
Spoony: kk!
Spoony: OH
Spoony: do you remember the part where AR first starts singing, and he and JD are standing together?
Moony: yesh
Spoony: they were standing so close together, i half expected them to kiss
Moony: ROFLMMFAO ME TOO!!!
Spoony: i bet we weren't the only ones thinking that!
Moony: mehbeh not
Moony: probably not
Spoony: and when he started loosening his collar, i nearly died
Moony: my favourite bit of that was the end part of that song when jd is wrapping his arm around ar's neck & he's moving his face closer to ar's ear i was like 'hug him & kiss his ear'
Moony: lol
Spoony: *snort*
Spoony: and then when anthony walked in on them... that was great
Moony: ROFL yeah
Moony: i liked when st threw anthnoy out
Moony: he was like GET. OUT. [/screaming]
Spoony: that "OUT!!!!!!!!!!" was great!
Spoony: yeah!
Moony: i loved it!
Spoony: epiphany
Spoony: *loved epiphany*
Moony: omb epiphany
Moony: it was great
Spoony: and at the end when he's suddenly back in the shop, and lovett's just like, "yeah... ANYwho..." and he has this really confused look on his face
Moony: but i still lik hearn's 82 one better, i .3think
Moony: ROFL yeah that was funny
Moony: she tried snapping him out of it & he was just like O.O
Spoony:
Spoony: i like Hearn's better for some reasons, and i like Depp's better for certain reasons... it's weird
Spoony: i liked the fact that it was all in his head *nods*
Moony: depp's was too slow, imo
Moony: i'm used to hearn's and his is faster
Moony: i dunno
Moony: depp's was good
Moony: ROFL yeah, that it was all in his head
Moony: TAHT was funny
Moony: anyway, continue
Spoony: k *thinks*
Spoony: a little priest
Spoony: even though they cut out a lot, i still loved the song *nods hardcore*
Spoony: i liked that they looked out at the different people while they were singing it
Moony: yeah
Spoony: johanna trio
Moony: yeah
Moony: i LOVED THAT PART
Spoony: whole song was great - and i especially like the fact that the people slid backwards and cracked their heads open on the stone *loves*
Moony: ME TOO
Spoony: i was like, "HELL YES!" and everyone else was like, "OMB EW!"
Moony: i loved that you can hear the bones crunch on the pavement below
Spoony: yeah!
Moony: *loved x2*
Spoony: god that's good - *snort*
Spoony: when they showed the people eating the pies and obviously loving them, quite a few people groaned and laughed
Moony: ROFLMMFAO!!!!
Moony: jon elbowed me & made a face like & did a thumbs up rofl
Moony: i sat in between him & mum
Moony: BTW, the cinema in buford has the awesomest seats!
Spoony: and like you, i didn't mind that they cut out the line "God that's good!", because it was quite obvious that they were enjoying them
Moony: the armrests go into an upright position and you can pull them down if you want to use them
Spoony: and DO they? *loves awesome seats*
Moony: omfrrf
Moony: yeah!!
Spoony: neato
Moony: yup
Moony: alright, continueness
Spoony: whoo!
Spoony: by the sea - *dies*
Moony: omb i know!!!
Moony: i LOVED the cheesy cinematography of that part
Spoony: JD in that striped bathing suit while wearing the boots was ****larious
Spoony: yeah!
Moony: i loved how IRRITATED he looked while she was fawning over him ROFL
Spoony: yeah! and i loved the part where it looked like he was going to give her a chance, and he put his hand on her knee, but then he was like, "**** it," he curled his lip, and he removed his hand
Spoony: that made me laugh hardcore
Spoony: and i LOVED how even in her fantasy, he's still a giant stick in the mud
Moony: YEAH!!!
Moony: it was ****larious!
Spoony: *continues*
Spoony: the whole part where turpin catches johanna packing her stuff is bril - he actually looks heartbroken that she's leaving him. i liked the fact that AR made him a LITTLE sympathetic and vulnerable, in addition to being a giant pervert
Moony: i agree
Moony: he looked upset & then he was like, well until you get your priorities straight, i'm gonna put you where nobody can get to you
Moony: it's like when i'm gonna give the cat a bath, i'll lock her in the cat cage till the bath is ready so she can't escape & hide under the bed or something
Moony: same general idea, methinks
Spoony: haha! *snort*
Moony: cause she WILL hide under the bed
Moony: usually she'll come out if i call her in the right way, but not if she knows there's water in that sink!
Spoony: *snort*
Spoony: not while i'm around - when i first saw part of the clip online, i thought that the kid's acting was rather wooden
Moony: yeah
Moony: it was good
Spoony: after what happened in the movie (the throat slitting and the general drama), that scene was a good reprieve - he was still kind of wooden, but it worked - he looked urgent and endearing *nods*
Moony: yeah, it was good
Moony: i wanted to see him freak out a little bigger when he saw lovett holding pirelli's purse
Moony: he freaked out, but i woudl've liked to see it more....
Moony: you know?
Spoony: yeah, i agree
Moony: then again, none of the toby's in any of the versions i've seen or heard freaked out enough for my liking
Spoony: i thought that ken jennings did a good job of freaking out when he saw the purse... he was toby in the 82 version
Moony: yeah, he freaked out more than the others
Moony: but i still would've liked to see it bigger
Spoony: mhmm - he sure freaked out big when the beadle's corpse came down the chute though
Moony: YEAH!
Moony: that was sufficient
Spoony: now to the big thing... the whole final sequence
Spoony: *dies 8274203847230487234837245 times*
Moony: yeah
Moony: *dies 102394871023894701238947109238470123894710398 x2*
Spoony: k - the bit where lovett locked toby in the basement, and she's all "ah ****, he's gonna die.. but what can i do?" broke my heart
Moony: i know, same here i almost cried
Moony: she really loved that kid i think
Moony: she was like
Spoony: omfrrf
Moony: hmm...actually she was more like and he was like BAH!
Spoony: the part where toby finds the finger in the pie, finds the bloody skeletons, and then looks in the top of the grinder was AWESOME
Moony: YEAH IT WAS
Moony: i loved that!!
Moony: i hated that she didn't stress 3 times through the grinder, though
Moony: i wish they'd ended it same as the play
Moony: where toby goes back to grinding like nothing happened
Spoony: yeah...too bad
Moony: that kinda made it seem like he was losing it a bit, and who woudln't after seeing/doing what he just saw/did??
Spoony: but the fact that he just walks away works too
Spoony: and true
Moony: yeah, that's good too
Moony: it wasn't BAD how they did it
Moony: but i liked the play one too
Spoony: omfrrf
Moony: all in all, i was HAPPY with the film
Spoony: yeah!
Moony: but i do wish they'd made it more obvious that sweeney wanted to die in the end
Moony: when toby killed him
Moony: like hearn did, where he pulled down his collar & stuff?
Spoony: omb - when the beadle went down the chute - his head crunch was the BEST
Spoony: and yeah
Moony: YEAH IT WAS
Moony: well, he had more weight behind it than the other guys who went down the chute
Spoony: true
Moony: did you notice though, that the footrest part of the chair drew up to push the guy down the chair?
Spoony: yes, i did!
Moony: when it was flipped upside down to dump him down the chute?
Moony: THAT WAS AWESOME!!
Spoony: *loves*
Moony: how fun would it be to put that chair backwards at the side of a swimmingpool???
Spoony: that would be FABULOUS
Moony: sit in it & push a button & it flips you upside down & pushes you off into the pool
Spoony: *wants a chair*
Moony: that'd be AMAZING!!
Moony: *wants a chairpoolslide*
Spoony: *wants one too*
Moony: that looked like fun
Moony: the whole thing looked like fun, aside from the throat slashing and the head-crunching when you hit the bottom
Moony: but the slide & fall looked FUN!!
Moony: it'd be perfect to go into water, methinks
Spoony: methinks so too
Spoony: the beggar woman's death
Moony: yesh
Moony: i loved that, personally
Spoony: i thought it was funny that she kept standing there even after he slit her throat
Moony: ROFL YEAH
Moony: i loved the way he was so fast about hit
Moony: he just spun around & BAM
Moony: that was it
Moony: i loved the gurgly sounds it made oftentimes when he slit throats
Moony: *is morbid*
Spoony: *is morbid as well*
Spoony: and then the judge walks in
Moony: YEAH
Moony: he was like hurry up hurry up hurry up hurry up rofl
Spoony: and when he goes, "she has...?" about Johanna... his expression made me go, "awwwwww"
Moony: YEAH!!
Spoony: but then he did the "excellent, my friend!" and i was like "PERV!"
Moony: he was like
Moony: rofl yeah
Spoony: his grin was priceless
Moony: yeah!
Spoony: then the song starts again... and that was when my heart started to pound
Spoony: seriously - i thought i was going to die
Moony: MINE TOO
Moony: *pets*
Moony: i'm glad you didn't

Spoony: then Sweeney went "WHIP! SLASH!" and Turpin went down
Moony: it was so GRUESOME
Spoony: i LOVED IT
Moony: YEAH!!
Moony: you could see all the stab spots & gash marks on his throat between stabs

Moony: YEAH!
Spoony: it got ALL OVER HIM!!!!

Moony: and when he was chopping the tree
Moony: splattered all over his face & dripping down UGH!!! *loves*
Moony: that was a good ugh, btw
Spoony: i know!

Moony: me too
Moony: i elbowed my mum & jon at the same time
Moony: they both looked at me and i giggled like a dork & pointed at the screen
Spoony: then he threw her in the oven, and i was torn - half of me was like "OMB" and the other half was trying not to laugh
Moony: we were in the very back, so no one saw what i was doing rofl
Moony: me too
Moony: ok, the cinematography of THAT was a bit cheesy
Moony: it reminded me of an ep of southpark, where a woman had burned supposedly to death, but she came back with a gun& her knickers around her ankles
Moony: kinda looked like lovett did in the oven
Spoony: wanna do a final thoughts thingie?
Moony: sure, we can
Moony: ok
Moony: final thoughtsMoony: brilliant film. i LOVED what they left in, wasn't horribly disappointed by what they left out, didn't mind the things they changed (which were few), and was THRILLED that they didn't turn singing into monologue like they did with rent.
Moony: also, loved the blood/gore aspect
Moony: *acts like ebert, you be roeper*
Moony: *thumbs up*
Moony: YOUR TURN!!
Spoony: awwww, i have to be roeper?
Spoony: can't i be siskel?
Moony: sure
Moony: you can be siskel's ghost
Spoony: yay!
Moony: i just didn't wanna be roeper, i hate him Spoony: *channels siskel's ghost*
Spoony: overall, the film was magnificent. the sets, the direction, the singing, the costumes... EVERYTHING was perfect. all of the actors were brilliant in their roles - i don't believe that i could have picked people who would have been better. as far as adaptations go, this one was VERY successful (unlike RENT or Phantom *cough cough*), and i thoroughly enjoyed it!
Spoony: i see that!
Spoony: k - are we done?
Moony: you didn't give thumbs up Spoony: right!
Spoony: *gives thumbs up*
Spoony: siskel was distracting me
Moony: YAY, 2 THUMBS UP!! *celebrates brilliant film*
Moony: was he touching you in places? *shifty*
Spoony: *shifty*
Moony: he always seemed like a latent pervert to me
Spoony: yeah! *dies*
Spoony: *stops channelling siskel's ghost*
& did a thumbs up rofl
