The Pirate Movie on DVD
Give me a happy ending, every time! I would just like to point out for the benefit of a very specific half-dozen or so readers that The Pirate Movie will be released on DVD in March.The 1982 teen-flick-slash-Gilbert-and-Sullivan-parody contains one of my favorite musical comedy rhymes ever, in its version of "The Major-General's Song", to wit:
I comprehend contemporary culture North American.
I've straightened more piratical erections than Bo Derek can.
Saucy wordplay like that, along with the shirtless Christopher Atkins factor, make this a must-own, must-see. My nearly worn-out VHS will soon be replaced.
Comments:
Great news! Is it too much to hope for some special features?
Keep pumpin'...(and blowin')
Loved that movie...
"I'm Frederic, without a K"
"I'm Mabel, also without a K"
my heart just skipped a beat!
(you bring up the gilbert-and-sullivan reference as if it mattered, or as if any of us understood the reference at the time. clearly the big draw was the music, the dancing, and the shirtless christopher atkins! it was like a litmus test for pre-gay adolescents. mine clearly came up blue!)
I first saw the Pirate Movie when I was 9 years old and I loved it. Although the movie didn't fare well with most of the general public, it did with me. To be honest, the girls were what made "The Pirate Movie" fun for me. I especially loved the costumes that Aphrodite Kondos designed for them, and the white dresses too. I would like to have something like that if I ever marry at all. Also, I would like to know what the other girls have been up to.
