There are many pro’s and con’s in using dance to tell a story many of the pro’s and con’s depending on if the people that are watching or listening like it. Everybody has there own opinion on certain movie types I personally think that a movie that uses the whole two hours your watching it to sing and dance are terrible movies except for movies like singing in the rain. It might still be a musical but the whole entire movie was not just singing and dancing it had a story to it that involved conversation, Problems and solutions like a regular story. Some of the things I don’t like about a musical is sometimes I just want to watch and find out what happens in the story and when a song comes on in the middle of a story that’s sad or interesting I get very mad cause I just want to finish the movie.
Let’s say you’re watching a movie and little Timmy over there is about to die. By a knife or gun shot then a musical comes on right before anything happens and Timmy is singing on what he did and why he has to die. Those kinds of musicals make me angry cause that does not actually happen in real life and I like the movie to get as close as it can to being realistic.
So if you were to do a musical, I believe you should not be able to put more than six songs in the movie. It might have been popular back in the day but now people are loosing interest in musicals. Unless you can find a way for people to start getting interest in musicals again. Or you would have to have everyone like a certain type of music or you could try to; start putting rock in them or hip hop you will never get as many sells as they did back in the day.
Now I’m going to explain the pro’s well when Don Lockwood was walking down the street after getting a kiss then a big smile appeared on his face and he started to sing in the rain was perfect moment to launch a song in the movie. Right at the moment he is in the rain walking down the street it is a boring and dull moment.
Finishing off my examples and explanations of using songs in movies is an argued subject. Personally I think this question is more of an opinion for each person because it really does matter if the person likes the type of music or not. Honestly if you were to put a sixteen year old in a movie theatre watching a musical about jazz or classic songs they will find no interest in it compared to if you played there kind of music in the movie they would like it a lot.
