Question of the Week

Should I consider myself weird because I would rather see Elisabeth Shue lip-sync to the Crystals in Adventures in Babysitting than watch her get smacked around (and worse) in Leaving Las Vegas?

Movie Song of the Week: “Babysitting Blues”

It's been one of those months and almost everyone I know has some form of the blues. So why not post this song from 1987's Adventures in Babysitting?

Movie Song of the Week: “And Then He Kissed Me”

Who doesn't like the Crystals? Or Elisabeth Shue? Yes, it's a scene from 1987's Adventures in Babysitting, one of the first '80s movies to start that whole “white girl singing into a hairbrush” thing that has since become a romcom cliché, but here it actually works. (And not just because she doesn't actually sing into a hairbrush.) It's a shame that the rest of this movie doesn't work as well as the musical numbers, but hey, you can't have everything.

I hope you all enjoy it.
