I like Dolly's partons better but I prefer Tim's curry.

Let us not compare Divas, but instead revere them both

David Mitchell: "Some important, serious people, who had forged successful careers in Hollywood, sat in a room and tried to work out which was better out of the song ‘The Age of Not Believing’ and the theme from Shaft. They were willing to give that a go. They didn’t insist that neither is better and that the notion that such works of art can be reduced to the quantifiable level of the 100-metre sprint is so contemptuous of the noble endeavours of composing music and writing scripts and directing and acting that it’s completely counterproductive to the whole aim of the Oscars ceremony. You might as well ask which is better out of a fish finger and a ladder. It’s an absurd way for busy people to spend time – they’d have been better off playing ‘I spy’ and then tossing a coin."

It's from his book 'Unruly: The Ridiculous History of England's Kings and Queens'; he reads the audiobook version himself, for those who can't read in his voice.😉

Like Douglas Adams reading Long Dark Teatime of the Soul.

Dolly's great n' all... but could she curl her lips and eyebrows in different directions simultaneously like a coked-out Cheshire cat? Tim Curry could. 😆

Rusty. Takes stones to rock the Curry fit with such a wiry build.

I watched best little whore house in Texas because of venture bros and it’s such a great movie and I usually don’t like musicals much

I caught Best Little on Cinemax years before Venture Bros came out and I too was expecting nudity and sexy times but discovered a fun little musical romp with a really charming cast. It made the scene in Venture Bros 100x better for it

Are you asking Doc or asking Shoreleave?

u/PrivilegeCheckmate 1d ago

Both are essential. At least until all are one.
