Xanadu

An aboslute disaster at the box office and I suppose there was good reason why. Still, XANADU retains a fond spot in my heart. Perhaps it was nothing more than my memory of Olivia Newton John (who earned the moniker Olivia Neutron Bomb when this baby hit the screen) dancing around in her leopard print mini skirt or THE TUBES cameo but I simply adored this film, Granted, the acting is bad, even from Gene Kelly in his last feature film, and the story totally inept but there is the lovely Don Bluth annimated segment and a fun soundtrack to back most of this nonsense up. You can take it or leave it.
