Adam, re: Broadway Melodies of 1929, remember, context context context ;). though to be fair i haven't seen a lot of musicals from that era either, but to compare an old film w/new films or takes on the same material is unfair. just like hamlet, to judge that using today's standards is not doing it justice. i always to try to get into the mindset... but perhaps you are right that musicals from around that era were still pretty good too. i just haven't gotten there =P.
Mike, be strong! =P that's why i'm only doing BP winners, not nominees. i know this is do-able. my other plan is to watch every single film by DIRECTOR, like chaplin, i've seen everything he's done. so that's pretty insane ;).
