Guest Pud Whacker Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Im so glad some of the people here arent in charge of Madonna's career, because it would have died out years ago. darlin', if i was in charge of her film career, shed still have one!!! oh yes she would.

Guest bluejean Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 I think Evita was a triumph because Madonna proved critics wrong with the soundtrack AND her performance. It was not the kind of movie that couldn't be huge because it is a musical, and its main audience was old people and Madonna fans. But she DID receive an award for it, and despite this being a Golden Globe this is huge because Madonna is known for being a bad actress. It was a big deal. Susan on the other hand, IS a much cooler movie and yes Pud is right. People would choose that over Evita. It is a cult movie, and imo its not just because Madonna was in it. I think if you saw it back in the day you appreciate it alot more, which is the why fans here are divided with it. Madonna triumphed because it WAS a supporting role and her rising fame stole the spotlight from the lead actress. So it was the ultimate Madonna movie in that sense. I guess she is not really in it much, but somehow that just made her appearance more exciting. Sort of like Batman in the Batman movie Anyway, I like both movies but I'd have to say I prefer Evita. I don't mind musicals and I enjoyed her performance in this. But IF Madonna wasn't in both I'd prolly prefer DSS. It's more my sort of thing. Weird I know, but something about Evita just really drew me in. If it were say, Meryl Streep in that role I'd have not bothered seeing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Everyone knows The Breakfast Club, young and old. TBC is a teen classic. DSS is not, i'm sorry but comparing them is laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Susan and Evita seem to be the 2 films that come up the most with her [by non fans]. If we're talking critics though, Evita easily takes the lead. This is the only place I ever hear DSS get talked about. If you were to ask most people my age about this movie they would look at you with a blank stare and say, "Wha?". Now The Breakfast Club, everyone I know has seen that movie. THAT is a true 80s classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breakfast Club is more common because its more of a classic. DSS is the "where are they now" of 80s films. You might think its a gem, but its a forgotten one. Thats my story and I am sticking to it.

MadFan Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 TBC has become manifested with culture today. The '80s are sort of back now. Pud is right when he says that if the youth watched DSS or Evita, they would CLING to the former, the thing is that it's got just about no exposure. Not even a lousy Special Edition dvd. And Evita has more because it's a musical and musicals are in right now. And it's only 10 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Coked Up Baby Boy Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 TBC has become manifested with culture today. Even high school films today struggle to keep up with that movie [though there have been some good ones]. It's a classic. People need to STEP OUT of their MADONNA BUBBLES.

Pud is right when he says that if the youth watched DSS or Evita, they would CLING to the former And if we showed the youth DSS or Transformers 2 they would probably cling to Transformers 2, so lets not leave this up to the youth to decide.

People need to STEP OUT of their MADONNA BUBBLES. Nothing to do with Madonna. I'm the kind of person who would much rather watch Heathers (even then..) over something like TBC or Pretty in Pink.

That one with Christian Slater, Pump Up the Volume. THAT is a great teen flick. Heathers is of course brilliant, kind of like the 1980s' Mean Girls but better.
