Talkie Tuesday: The Little Mermaid Live

 

"Watch and you'll see, someday I'll be, part of your world ..."

 

Hello everyone!

 

Something just a smidgeon different for you all tonight.

 

Or well, a return to my roots, one could say.

 

Once upon a time, you see, I used to LIVE for these movies - I even watched a bunch, reviewed a fair few as well, because why not?

 

So then when Disney+ suggested stuff to me after watching the newest The Little Mermaid take, I was like

 

why not?

 

Which means you get to sit back, relax, and read through as I discuss the merits of on stage singing during a special viewing of The Little Mermaid.

 

And bemoan that I never got to see it.

 

Live, that is. The Little Mermaid Live.

 

Talkie Tuesday: Grease Live

"Grease is the word!"

Hello everyone!

You're the one that I want! Those Magic Changes! Hopelessly Devoted to You! Summer Nights! And a bunch of other songs that if I name them I'll be singing along to in my sleep, and I'm pretty sure my family kind of wants to have a quiet night tonight haha! 

You guessed it, it's Grease time!

Ever since FOX announced it was going to be making a live rendition of the musical, I've been super excited. Grease is probably one of my favourite, all-time movies, even though I don't watch it as often as I probably could. And once news started trickling out as to who was cast in the respective roles, my anticipation shot off through the roof!

Because, I mean, this is one of the most iconic things on TV you're ever going to see, and you know they have to get it at least semi-right, considering people will be super judgy about it.

To my delight, despite the sound problems, it seems to be a success!
