Which Movie Do You Like The Best?

Which Movie Do U Like The Best

Purple Rain
Under The Cherry Moon
Or
Graffiti Bridge


I've Only Seen Purple Rain And Under The Cherry Moon, Can't Seem 2 Find Graffiti Bridge. But If I Had 2 Choose I Think Purple Rain Over Under The Cherry Moon.

I HATE Grafitti Bridge


but since that wasn't really the question...

I prefer UTCM. The campy humor works for me, the music is AMAZING and it's so much fun to see Kirstin Scott Thomas before she became "a serious" actress....

Purps by a longshot. G Bridge is horrible. I can't wait for the DVD.

Under the Cherry Moon..hands down..is my fave...but i must say..each time i watch purple rain..i find something else that amuses me...

like..

when he rolls up on his mom's sittin on the curb...and he stomps his mad ass into the house lookin for his dad..to do what..i have no idea lol but my brutha prince..executed a perfect 360 degree turn in the hallway..and still had time to stop and pose so the cameraman could get the shot

LMAO

I couldn't sit through GB the first time i watched it...and still can't..without falling asleep

i wonder if george and mavis blush with pride..or cringe with shame when ppl ask them which brand of crack they were smoking to have been a part of that shit..

ok..mavis prolly couldn't answer that question...but we all know george could

under the cherry moon. Higly underated. Initially the critic's reviews had it being a better movie than purple rain. Which if you watch them now, it is. Purple Rain is more like an extended music video and "Cherry Moon" is more like a movie. graffiti bridge I've only watched 2 times. If I'm gonna watch a prince movie, It ain't that one!

Loved UTCM as well as PR. Another question about a scene in PR: Why did his dad's body have it's outline drawn in chalk when the suicide attempt didn't result in death? Maybe an editing faux pas? neutral

I still haven't seen Under The Cherry Moon( sad ) but between Purple Rain and Grafitti Bridge I would definitely have to say Purple Rain.

I've always assumed it was Prince imagining the chalk outline. shrug

Purple rain, is a great movie
&
Under the cherry moon, is sooo funny,

If i had 2 choose, then i would go for Under the cherry moon, just cause it is soo funny, but purple rain is a close second.


Dont watch GB, when i got the vid, i really wanted 2 watch it, it looked really interesting, but it is really crappy, about 2 or 3 scenes set out side the studio lol, really dnt watch it.

But i have a question about GB, was that bridge in the movie, ment 2 be the same bridge in Purple rain, where that woman jumps in the lake???

Dear Purpleraindancr: biggrin

Don't Rent "Grafitti Bridge".....BUY IT!!! razz

Your brain will FOREVER be burned with the images of:

1) The INCREDIBLE Robin Power song with the epileptic-inducing spotlight! eek

2) The Cardboard/Paper-Mache Grafitti Bridge itself(!), with it's insanely illogical steep incline!

3) The UNREADABLE MANIFESTO that ends the movie
confuse!

4) The VISIONARY Makeup smeared on Prince's face during "Elephants & Flowers"! (A precursor to the "Slave" cheek?) eek ( and the "Kid" wonders why it's an empty house?)

5) that brilliantly funny moment where Morris Day pisses in Prince's plants! ill

6) The moment after the showdown in the streets ("Tick Tick BANG!") where Prince, in his white dress, throws a temper tanturm and runs away!queen


This movie is SO BAD, it's not even FUN-BAD; UTCM on the other hand, is full of great visual style, costumes, etc!

Okay, I can go with that. He WAS kinda "pondering" things in that scene.

i love me some utcm! even outside of prince-world, it is one of my favorite movies! so campy! that would be my first pick. then purple rain. and, contrary to popular opinion, i enjoy graffiti bridge. it's just awful. so bad. bad writing. bad direction. great music. i watch when i feel a little down. it cheers me up.

"...its just around the corner..." lol

Full Labios, UTCM is bad, whereas Graffitti Bridge is really AWFUL! The writing is for third graders, the acting is for second graders and the way it's shot is for first graders. Only a maniac would say its worthwhile. Stick with the soundtrack and that's all you'll need!

I was WONDERING when this would come up !!!
How can this question b asked and not include what is hands down the best film project Prince ever involved himself in ??

I will NEVER 4get going 2 c this movie on opening night in November of 87 with my girlfriend Trish and my buddy Brice after ditching our cast party of "The Wizard of Oz" and catching the last show of the night.....then going back the next day and watching it twice more !!!
I've gone through 3 copies of it on video already.

C'mon PLEASE release this on DVD domestically....not this Brazilian import bootleg shit !!

I'd KILL to get that in 5.1 Dolby Digital/DTS !!!
