The 2012 film, Rock of Ages was not considered a financial success, but there were moviegoers who did like the adaptation. We can understand it, as the songs covered in the film may not be deep, but were fun songs in an era that has become celebrated. Many of those covers were done by members of the group, Wolfgang Von Colt which comprised the male and female leads, Julianne Hough and Diego Boneta, though we never really saw the band until the end, and most of the musical numbers that the two leads did were not in band form.

“Show me Your Weenis!” From the criminally under watched (we say that, as we wonder why everyone didn’t watch this!) Mr. Show, we have a gay Heavy Metal band. That in itself was not the gag, but that Wyckyd Sceptre was in complete denial of their sexuality. What hurts them here is that we learned about their carnal preferences but little about their actual music.

From “Smashing Time” which was a satire of the 1960’s Swinging London scene, Yvonne (Lynn Redgrave) became a pop singer, who was very bad. Of course, like the real music world, many songs that make it are very bad, and despite her inability to sing and cheesiness of the material, it became a huge hit. Sadly, we can’t say the same for the film. The Bullet Points: Movie Appeared: Smashing Time (1967) Actor: Lynn Redgrave Songs you might remember: I’m So Young Why you should vote for her: She was so bad, it was kind of good. Why you should…

Dear God.   In the guilty pleasure Saturday Morning Sitcom, Saved by the Bell, we were treated to an iconic episode in which a dream sequence (narrated by Casey Kasem of course!) shows the rise and fall of their band, “The Zack Attack”. Beyond a school dance, we learn little of the band, but does it really matter here? The Bullet Points: TV Show Appeared: Saved by the Bell (1991) Actors: Mark Paul Gosselaar (Zack Morris, Guitar) Mario Lopez (A.C. Slater, Drummer) Dustin Diamond (Screech Powers, Keyboards) Elizabeth Berkley (Jessie Spano, Vocals) Tiffany Amber-Thiessen (Kelly Kapowski, Vocals) Lark Voorhies (Lisa Turtle,…

In the category of those we almost forgot about, Zora Banks (Sanaa Latham) was the female lead against Wesley Snipes where she was an aspiring singer (though admittedly we don’t recall her singing much) in the HBO movie, Disappearing Acts.   Actually, is that not a perfect name for their careers? The Bullet Points: TV Movie Appeared: Disappearing Acts (2000) Actor: Sanaa Latham Songs you might remember: None Why you should vote for her: We don’t have a lot here. Why you should not vote for her: Didn’t we explain this when we had Latham in the Fictitious Athlete Hall of…
