My Fair Lady 50th Anniversary Watch-Along: So It Begins


Our watch-along begins at 8 PM sharp, Central Standard Time!  I will be making the comments public and unmoderated at about 7:45 CST... hopefully no spam will creep in, haha.  Please try and be here 15 minutes ahead of time so that we can all get set up and ready together.  Also, please get your video ready and playing (and then pause it right at the beginning) so that when we start at 8:00, we won't be wading through ads or previews, but can all just start at the exact same point.

This will be the big Discussion Post, so I won't say much more, only direct you to the comment box.  Oh, and please vote in the little poll I've got going over on the sidebar!

Bravo!!

Melody said...

It sounds SO obvious when it switches to Marni, haha.

Melody said...

WHOA Blogger just hid comments. Hahahaha.

WE FINALLY OVERWHELMED IT.

Ashley said...

Yes Amy yes!

That's how I say "again" when I'm trying to make a poem rhyme :P

Ashley said...

Melody, I was hoping it wasn't just me being my overly cynical self, but yes, that voice change though!

This reminds me of Singin in the Rain!

Melody said...

"Test her in public." She's not an object. Griefies.

Miss Dashwood said...

We're on PAGE TWO WUUUUUUUUUT

"Mr. Higgins, I was awakened by a dreadful pounding..."

Ashley said...

Insert the song "Good Mornin!"

Ashley said...

Yay!! Possibly my favorite song!!

Alexandra said...

FAVORITE SONG

Miss Dashwood said...

I adooooooooooore this song. Used to work on it in the shower when I was 13 until I could hit the high G. Heehee.

Melody said...

THAT'S A LOT OF STAIRS

Ashley said...

Why does Higgins have so many servants just for him?

Miss Dashwood said...

I WANT HER NIGHTGOWWWWWWNNNNNNN

Melody said...

I love to sing this song after I've done something exciting, haha.

Like on the way home when I saw SoM live recently. :D (Of course, I was kind of in Musicals Phase after that, so yeah.)

Melody said...

I WANT HER NIGHTGOWN TOOOOOOO

Remember talking about it (and Samantha's) during like our third phone conversation, Amy? :D

Ashley said...

This scene is kinda creepy.

Miss Dashwood said...

Oooh, I do remember that, Tween...

ASCOT! PEOPLE ACTING LIKE MANNEQUINS!
...Wish I could have been an extra in this movie.

Melody said...

I'd much rather be an extra at the ball. (With the best gown.)

I wonder how many people are at Ascot that also appear at the ball...

Miss Dashwood said...

"Heeeenry! What a disagreeable surprise!"

..."I changed my shirt."

Ashley said...

That sounds like something my brother would say. "I changed my shirt!"

Ashley said...

So that's how you say Enysford!

Melody said...

How KIIIIIIIIND of you to let me come.

Ashley said...

She's wearing a mobcap!!! (At least I think that's what Felicity called it :D )

Ashley said...

How DO you do? Also, Freddy has a man-purse!

Miss Dashwood said...

FAVORITE SCENE EVAH
I KNOW IT BY HEART
IN MY SLEEP

Melody said...

"Done her innnn?"

Ha, that mob cap thing looks renunculous.

Ashley said...

Yes, Lord love you!

Ashley said...

*facepalm*

Miss Dashwood said...

FREDDY HAS A MAN-PURSE??????? MUST LOOK FOR IT.

The teacup on the hat kills me.

Melody said...

What are you SNIGGERING at?

Ashley said...

This voice is getting on my nerves fast!!!

Ashley said...

Amy, it might have been Pickering?

Ashley said...

This is the scene where you run for the mute button while trying not to laugh hysterically :D

Melody said...

"You're a pretty pair of babies playing with your live doll."

Miss Dashwood said...

Did you all mute the Big Swear Word, like good girls?
*innocent grin*
(Haha, I didn't either.)

Ashley said...

Just wondering, how much longer in Act 1?

Miss Dashwood said...

Freddy's actually kinda cute despite his dweebishness. My mom thinks he's adorable for some reason.

Miss Dashwood said...

I think it's just about another five minutes or so.

Ashley said...

This is my youth pastor's wife's favorite song. (Not that you needed to know that :P )

Ashley said...

Okay, thanks Amy!

Ashley said...

Wow! Did my DVD just skip, or are we heading to the ball already?

Melody said...

It always switches so quickly to this part, haha.

Miss Dashwood said...

Nope, we're heading to the ball! The intermission comes right after this scene, and that closes Act 2.

Miss Dashwood said...

Honestly, the dress isn't that bad in this scene... it's her hair that's atrocious. :P

LOVE how he goes back to take her arm. I ship them for one tiny moment. :P

Melody said...

I always squee inside when he offers his arm. :D

AND HER HAIR'S AWFUL. the dress is a bit of a sack but the fabric & sparkly stuff is purty.

Miss Dashwood said...

Well then! Thanks for being here tonight, peeps! This was so fun. :D

Don't forget, Act 2 tomorrow night is over at Melody's blog.

Ashley said...

Yay!!! Thanks again for hosting this Amy!! See you all tomorrow!!! Same time right?

Miss Dashwood said...

Same time indeed!

Melody said...

Same time, yep, just at my blog!

This was fun

I wonder if the computer is convinced yet that I'm not a robot.

Melody said...

If anybody's reading through this who missed it-- don't forget that you can catch up on the first half before tomorrow night and join us then! :)

jess dunlap said...

Needless to say I am so happy that Higgins sent that letter about Alfred.
Phew, some sort of reformation was needed. Lol XD
And if I don't get On The Street where you live out of my head post-haste I will be forced to find some pink fluffy unicorns.

That was a fun event. =D made "studying" loads more fun!
