LAS was vignettes of varying lengths; most were indeed contempo but the "pilot" for HD was something like "Love and the Fifties" -- Beej will know for sure

"Love and the Happy Days" if I'm not mistaken.

I am looking forward to the Wonka remake. Seriously.

Meanwhile Dave's cornering the market on clips from overrated films this week :wink:

The Wonka remake might be OK. Although Johnny Depp looks like the love child of Michael York & Terry Gilliam in his Wonka outfit...

Starting to sound like a LSJUMB originals set!

Hey, Chris!  Good call -- Changes is LSJUMB all over, but I'd already forgotten about "It Don't Come Easy", or "Men Come So Greasy", as the tenor part said.

I saw the trailer, and it was quite a bit more edgy than I expected.  Not that a Tim & Johnny colab wouldn't be edgy, but I thought for sure they'd try to tone it down for the kids.

btw, I have an mp3 of the Oompa Loompa songs if anyone wants it.

Last nite VH1 Classic was showing an hour of old Bowie vids -- "Heroes", "Boys Keep Swinging" etc. I was transfixed.

Is appreciably different that the original version? I would hope they'd come up with new songs.
