I guess dancing has become my “new” obsession…
Step Up 2…I loved the original Step Up, and I knew that the sequel would be, well, ick…
Turned out the script is kinda cheesy, but the dancers can freaking dance! And hip hop, I love watching it ever since Chris Kim from Glenbrook South performed a helicopter in the annual variety show…I am always in awe…and if you can’t get through dance movies, let me save you the trouble and go straight to the last dance sequence…hip hop, street-style in the rain. It was gorgeous and hard-hitting…the dancing was AMAZING, choreography that will blow your mind, and by the time the final scene ends (a little abruptly, I might add), you are just like me….staring blankly at the screen in total awe. FABULOUSO…I might just buy the DVD for that scene alone. Found out that the main actress (who did have that “it” factor, although she looks like Sophia Bush, which isnt a bad thing!) was trained by Shane Sparks…who I LOVE! Gotta love people who can dance (and sort of act…)
I love dance movies because I think dance is the one thing that is universal…everyone (even the left foot ones) can move to a beat.
And that got me thinking…what are people’s favorite movie dance moments?
Here’s mine: Centerstage finale…Dirty Dancing (of course) finale…and possibly Step Up 2…
(I swear I will get off this dance kick, but I am currently obsessed…although I have noticed a surge of dancing in the media…SYTYCD and Dancing with the Stars, etc…but now even Target’s ads for college dormwear is featuring choreography…go figure.)
