OK, I *WILL* start a John Travolta thread My hijack didn't go too well. BUT JOHN TRAVOLTA WILL NOT BE IGNORED.
Basically, my question is this: Has any artist impacted American culture as much as John Travolta? He actually changed the way we dressed, danced, and chose our music. Not once, but TWICE. First, with "Saturday Night Fever". Then, he came to MY backyard and got us all goin, "Sissy, get offa that bull!" If you're at least 40, you lived through these life-changing times. Can you think of anyone who was able to affect American pop culture like the amazing John Travolta? | |

Fantastic entertainer, but has had no impact on American pop culture. Dancing with the stars LOL. He didn't start it. He didn't last long, either. Don't get me wrong, I think Wayne is very cool I've seen him in Vegas. But he hasn't had any impact on pop culture. | |

I'm only sayin'..... Madonna was the one who did it for me. Not as much anymore but when I was in junior high, it was all about her.

One of the best dancers of all time, hands down.
Surely, he's not Al Pacino or Sean Penn, but he's charismatic, an icon , a true star (something that most of the new actors are not ) My fav Travolta movies: 1.Stayin' Alive 2.Pulp Fiction 3.Grease 4.Urban cowboy 5.Face/Off 6.Look who's talkin' 7.Get shorty 8.Primary Colors 9.Phenomenon 10.A Love Song for Bobby Long the rest of his career is blah, but the number of major hits that he (or his agent) turned down is impressive: American Gigolo, An Officer and A Gentleman, Splash, Fatal Attraction... Oh, and Battlefield Earth is one of the worst movies of all time!!! By the way, I've always thought that he's gay [Edited 10/12/07 10:51am] | |
