I just put the Moulin Rouge CD in here at work.
Aaaah, I love this movie.
If you can manage to get through the first part, you're hooked... and even start to love the wacky beginning. If you don't make it... you probably think it's a stupid movie.

I loved it the first time I saw it, but I watched it with the guy I was dating and my roommates, and they couldn't even sit through it.

I have only seen the movie once. It wasn't the best of conditions ( a military contract 737 flying from Japan to Florida). On the aircraft there were maybe 10 women, and that's counting the 6 flight attendants. You could hear a groan of horror from all the guys on the plane. It would be an understatement to say almost every guy hated the movie.

While I don't think it's too much to think a guy could like the movie... I do think it's more of a woman's thing.

Again, I think was the conditions....being stuck on a plane for 24 hours, especially on the small 737, is not a place to enjoy a movie like that.

I liked it at "Fortunately, at that moment, a narcoleptic Argentinian fell through my ceiling."

Come What May's not bad. It's 3rd place on my list, just after the Elephant Medley, which a friend and I used to belt together as we walked across campus on many occasions. You get some weird looks doing that.

I heard the song from which I was made for loving you baby, you were made for loving me was sampled. Quite disco.

Actually, the Like a Virgin is the one part I don't like. I always fast-forward through it. It's just disturbing. I don't want to be sung to about sex when those are the people on the screen.

Well yeah... but I love to hate that part. It's sooooo creepy. Makes me cringe every time. But it's also sooo ridiculous. I think I have fast forwarded through it, too.

This movie is my ultimate summer night movie... and those kinda gothy minor cords that come up every once in a while during the music really give me the shivers...serious nostalgia and loss and beauty.

At that moment, I loved Ewan McGregor.
Kat, is there any moment in which you don't like Ewan McGregor? I know such a thing doesn't exist in my life...
I also adored him at the very beginning, when he's at the first rehearsal, and just starts singing "The hills are alive!" and everyone is like "ooooh!" Posts: 7877 | Registered: Feb 2003

I think Moulin Rouge is one of the best movies I have ever seen. My wife hasn't gotten much into it. The first time, she wouldn't pay attention to it at all -- it was too weird. Then I started playing the soundtrack a bit and got her to enjoy the music. Now, I'm not sure how she feels about it. Sadly, that is one of the great movies I enjoy but do not own.

Since this is a thread about awesome movies, USA is playing the Indiana Jones movies right now. I love Harrison Ford.

I've never seen it. I own the soundtrack, too (a gift), although I've never listened to it. I should watch it one day, but it never had any particular attraction for me (yes, even Ewan McGregor).
