Subject: Movies dealing with music in a fun way
I'm trying to think of the best movies in the spirit of Spinal Tap, that deal with music.. here's what I got so far
Airheads
This is Spinal Tap
The Rutles
Wayne's World
what am I missing? I know there's got to be a few more than that.. the Sgt. Pepper's Movie was unintentionally funny, but maybe I should investigate those too..

Hey hey HEY!!! All these white movies! Where are the brothas!? ;) ;) ;)
I'm just playin! No bash-posts, please! Only joking. I am perhaps one of the whitest black people on the planet (aside from Michael Jackson), so I'm allowed to joke.
Anyway,
What about-
Breakin'
Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
Beat Street
Krush Groove
House Party
House Party 2
House Party 3
CB4 (Chris Rock is crazy)
You might even add Sister Act and Sister Act 2 in there

Bad News
...I was there at Donington when there were 100,000 people shouting "f**k off Bad News" - but unlike it showed in the film, they went down really well.

PS I haven't seen "Airheads" - is it worth it?

I'm not sure the Breakin' movies really count.. I was looking for comedies not movies about music in general.. CB4 would count, but I'm not sure about the other ones..

Airheads was kinda lame.. it has Adam Sandler and Brendon Fraser, but it didn't really work that well as a movie..

I thought of another.. Empire Records
Subject: Re: Movies dealing with music in a fun way
How about:
FM
Almost Famous
Both are comedies and both deal with music.

What do you MEAN 'Breakin' doesn't count? Did you SEE what they were wearing? That's a comedy in itself!
