Little Shop of Horrors 1986
I've always championed this as the one movie adaptation of a musical that actually improved upon the original stage version, but after rewatching it for the first time in forever, I'm not so sure that's true. I think I was just taken in by the best puppet effects ever put to film and the insanely incredible "Mean Green Mother from Outer Space" song to notice how many songs that contribute crucial story and character beats were cut. It's not like…

Road House 1989
Extremely boring but I liked when the guy shot at the falling polar bear statue instead of just, y'know, moving out of its way

Paddington 2 2017
I was gonna give it a 9/10 but that last shot before the credits...fuck it 10/10. It may not be the single greatest movie ever made, but I can think of nothing else that deserves the title of "best-reviewed film of all time" more than this.

Jesus Christ Superstar 1973
This movie is goofy as sin in so many ways, and while it works for certain songs (Simon Zealotes, Herod's Song, etc.), it really betrays the tone in other areas. Nothing quite like getting wrapped up in the drama of Judas receiving his silver pieces for betraying Jesus, only for the film to suddenly cut to jet planes flying overhead. It's...a lot, but it is, at the very least, consistently entertaining with a fairly good balance of humor and drama. Happy Good Friday my fellow Greeks!

The Wizard of Oz 1939
Yeah it was good but it's no Phineas and Ferb Season 2 Episode 56 "Wizard of Odd"

The Muppet Movie 1979
These Muppets gave a woman a severe allergic reaction to get an audition, they don't fuck around
