Miles, Andrew, & Nick are back to pop some pussies into pies with... Sweeney Todd!!! Borderline impossible to sing-a-long to, but goddamn did we try our best. Is this Tim Burton's last good movie, or do you not even think it's a good movie? Either way I hope you're wearing a poncho because we bouta get bloody hunny.

[@cranberryrosebud]

I think it's cool how people get innovative with stuff like this. I found a high school production online (it was a lot better than you'd think) and they used a piece of red fabric that the guy playing Sweeney would pull along the throat, acting like it had come out of the person - when he managed to make it seamless, it looked really cool.

@@cranberryrosebud that option is MUCH BETTER for a high school production of course. I’ve also seen the prop straight razor be able to dispense some blood by the Sweeney actor pressing a button.

[@shelbyyoungest]

For our production, the handles of the razors were squeezable tubes, and there was a small hole in the razor itself, so as Sweeney squeezed the handle then blood would come out of the hole and drip along the whole razor, and he just dragged it across the victims throats and they’d be completely covered lol

You know I was kinda disappointed hearing an analysis of the music going into how bad the movie singing is considered by people who do Broadway type music and fans of stage shows. But then I heard the version they thought was better and I'm sorry but the singing to the rafters in plays is not good singing, it's necessary. The emotion, pain, and madness in Depp's rendition of They all Deserve to Die is my favorite of all the renditions. Would still recommend watching "How the music of Sweeny Todd spoils the movie(and why that's a good thing) musical language is so fascinating.

@@dragonwaz I love Sideways!! I agree that's a great video to watch ☺️ I believe that when the actors are cast for the musical movies, they're terrific because they put so much emotion, which can also happen in stage musicals.

Especially so when you consider the line "I had hoped to find my wife and daughter waiting for me."

Even Sir Alan Rickman did alright for his part, even though he did a little more sing-talking than actual full-on singing. Although I have a hard time picking a single favorite number in this movie, my three that tie for that spot are: "Nothing's Going to Harm You," "Pretty Women," and, "We'll Serve Anyone." I'm assuming those are the titles anyway as I don't recall specifically what each one was entitled. I think you all know which ones I'm indicating either way, though.

I don't think people ignore it intentionally. I forget it happened, frequently.

There’s a Sweeney Todd themed barber in Perth Scotland and amazingly there’s a greggs (chain bakery) next door to it

[@keysmashingnerd]

the references to other musicals you guys do always kill me like "BEIING A PIE" plzz 😭

[@chiefzombie9184]

God I have such a great time just hearing you guys go ham on musicals, Eric singing along to like half the movie is so satisfying

[@milkiwey2696]

The fact that this was posted the day Sondheim died... Now THAT'S a tribute.

[@theripper451]

Rest in piece Sondheim. You were a true musical genius. Thank you for giving us this and so many other wonderful musical tales.

Sweeney Todd is one of the best musicals. Absolutely loved my old high school's production of it. This movie is honestly a pretty dang good adaptation.

"ooooh." "Who is it?" "It's his daughter." I died 😂

I’ve noticed something about Tim Burton. When he was with Helena he was making good movies. After he divorced her he went through a crisis. 🤔

[@Lameashellcosplay]

I don't think they were ever even married, but definitely after they broke up

[@user-jb7tq7ko7e]

Well between the divorce of his wife and his best friend getting abused by Amber Heard, the trio have certainly gone through distress. It's going to reflect on their work.

[@Luvie1980]

@@Lameashellcosplay I know but in my opinion if a person spends that amount of time with someone and has children with them they’re pretty much married.

What I can't stop thinking about whenever I watch this movie is how pretty much everyone has been in a Harry Potter movie. The simp was young Grindelwald in Deathly Hallows, Sweeney Todd was Fantastic Beasts Grindelwald, The Judge was Snape, The Judges helper was Peter Petigrew, The Pie maker was Bellatrix. It's just funny to me. Snape still obsesses over a girl that doesn't love him and therefore he begins hating the guy she's with.

Recently went to see a community theater production of this with my friend who knew nothing about this show 😂 Her realizing what was going on with the pies was great but also the guy playing Sweeney wasn’t that good and had pretty bad annunciation. I asked her at intermission if she wanted anything explained because it was hard to understand him and she just goes “I don’t know - all I’ve got is he’s a demon barber and he lives on Fleet Street 😭 I don’t know anything else but I’ve got his business address”

10:58 was the absolute worst time to take a sip of water omg i’ve never spit out my drink from laughing before but you guys did it lmaoooo

[@cafeAmericano]

This film with perfection. Everything about it. The casting the characters everything seamlessly fit into the narrative and it was every where it needed to be.

[@taintedfolly]

This is the funniest commentary yet. I love this movie and sang every lyric with you guys. I actually cried from laughing at Eric's British accent at the end omfg dude

[@arkarts2987]

The fact that they turned basically every song into a different musical just makes the movie better.
