Is this just your thread to show off embedded youtube videos?

Theldorrin, what do you think are the RESPECTIVE power levels of mainstream dancers like Michael Jackson, Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly?

[Theldorrin]

Michael Jackson was basically a hack. I don't much care for Fred Astaire, either.

But Gene Kelly was swell.

You're full of shit.

[Theldorrin]

Pop dancers are all about sloppy exaggerated movements.

Compare flairs as done by gymnasts to them done by breakdancers, for example.

Don't let this creep make you cry, man. He's full of shit.

[Theldorrin]

The gymnastics video is great because you see a ton of jobbers do a couple of flairs with good form, and then the end has an Olympic gymnast just do a ridiculous number at a ridiculous speed. And you realize that the difference between him and the rest of them is like the difference between the normal gymnasts and all of those breakdancers who drag their legs on the floor and can't manage to keep their legs extended.

Theldorrin, Mikhail Baryshnikov thinks Fred Astaire is a God ...

I wanted to post the clip of Baryshnikov on the Muppets doing tap to White Hat and Tails, but apparently that's not up anymore.

A highlight is the iconic dance from a Chorus Line at 1:40.



I think NPH is a better singer but Hugh Jackman is a better dancer.

Both of the two nominated revivals had dance heavy numbers. Of course dancing is more typical in older musicals, so there's that.

Anything Goes, with a long tap dance number.


How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (poor Daniel Radcliffe looks so short even though he's 5'7", I believe).

I appreciate the talent in that last video but I still want to punch radcliffe in the face. Seriously, I WANT, like, I've never wanted to hit a celebrity so hard.

[Sporkism]

Haha, it's so weird to see him in shit like that after the Harry Potter stuff. I think it suits him better. He's pretty terrible in the movies.

It's actually very impressive that he went on to do Equus, and then with no musical theatre experience, take the lead in something where he'll be doing 8 performances a week with quite a bit of singing and dancing.


I really only like the first Harry Potter movie and the most recent one.
