WHOA!! Fell asleep with the TV on. Woke up from a yucky dream (really! blah!) and looked at the TV. The movie Moulin Rouge was on, hadn't seen it before.

Y'all, this movie is WEIRD! I mean ummm isn't it set in 1900? Did they have Madonna, the Beatles, Elton John and Jennifer Warren back then!? LOL.

Anyone else make any sense out of this movie? I really didn't get it, cept' it is one strange movie!

I loved Moulin Rouge, its not meant to be taken literally, its kinda campy kinda silly and a little bit off, but then so am I guess thats why I loved Rocky Horror Picture Show so much

if you dont see Moulin Rouge from the very begining, it isnt going to make alot sense to you, I think that might have been your problem

I thought the sets were beautiful and the costumes. It is campy so the story won't make much sense.

I LOVE Moulin Rouge. Watch it again from the beginning, the more times you watch it the more you'll like it.

The first time I saw the movie I thought after the first 15 min "no way am I waisting two hours on this crap" but I hung with it...now I LOVE it..gets better every time you see it...and it does have a story, a very good one I think.

Moulin Rouge is my most favorite movie! (Hence my sig line, LOL) It's one of those movies that grabs me emotionally and doesn't let go. I ALWAYS cry when I watch it.

I love Rocky Horror too!!!!

I loved Moulin Rouge & Rocky Horror. Oh by the way if the original version of Moulin Rouge ever comes on tv, don't watch it. I saw it before the new version and I thought boy I hope it isn't this bad. The two version aren't that much a like.
