I Don't Believe It

Hairspray Poster Broadway Theater Play 11x17I've just recently made a startling realization about myself. Deep breath. I like.... musicals. Now I know it might not seem like that big of a deal for a girl like myself to like musicals. But, I assure you, it is. On a regular basis I have stated (to pretty much anyone who would listen) how much I actively disliked musicals. They're total fluff. (Mind you, that's still true.) But I have to face the fact.... I dig it. How did I come to this moment, you ask? I looked at my movie collection. Simple. But shocking. There sat my own collection of musicals! Gasp! So I will now share with you their titles. The Rocky Horror Picture Show (Which, really, that one isn't too shocking.) Cry Baby (If you had any notion of my great and abiding love of John Waters, then really this isn't a great shock to you.) Repo! The Genetic Opera (Come on. Death, gore, and Anthony Stewart Head. How could I not love it?) Grease (Shut up. I am a girl after all. It's in my DNA to like this movie. And Dirty Dancing, which isn't technically a musical but it should be.) Hairspray (Don't judge me. Its based a John Waters movie. So really it's not my fault that I like it.) The Phantom of the Opera (I've already outed myself as a Phantom Phan, this one holds no shame. Plus Gerard effing Butler. Hello.) Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog ( I make no excuses. That's just pure awesome right there.) Labyrinth (Three words. David Bowie codpiece. Mmhmm.)  The Nightmare Before Christmas & Corpse Bride (Because I love stop motion animation. And Tim Burton.) Sweeney Todd (Hmmm. I'm noticing a theme. Johnny Depp! I blame you, sir! You've done this to me!)
So now you see. And these are just the ones I own. I've seen many many more, some that may or may not have had Gidget or Frankie & Annette in the title. Sigh. Next thing ya know I'll be going to the theater. Shudder. (Call me Jeffie! We'll see Love Never Dies!)
