Spice World
I loved this movie the last time I watched it, like ridiculously loved it, lol, but within 10 minutes this time I was wondering why. It’s still completely infectious cheese, though, and there seem to be more cameos each time I watch it. No masterpiece, that goes without saying, but I’ll probably watch this at least once every couple of years for the rest of my life. Can’t help tearing up when “Viva Forever” comes on the soundtrack and they all meet up outside their old place. I’m hopeless lol.
Agh, I so want the poster I found to post with this entry!!! lol

[...] I’ve actually found myself wondering frequently over the past year what it is I love so much about Geri. I loved her last album and I felt downright hurt by her appearance in the abominable Fat Slags. But outside of watching Spiceworld: The Movie at the end of last year, I’ve barely even thought of her at all, aside from, as I said, why it was there was a time I used to love her so much. This documentary really captures that conflicted feeling – ‘cos for all the energy she is able to exude, it’s evident on almost every frame how lonely and sad and longing to be loved she is, how she’s able to ‘play’ confident and ‘play’ outgoing but she retreats so easily into herself at the drop of a hat. In short, I fell in love with her all over again and – I’m sure I’m not alone – by the end of the movie all I wanted to do was hug her (shut up, I’m being serious here – not to say she isn’t stunning to look at). That after-movie activity being unavailable to me, I might just stick some Spice Girls and Geri stuff on my iPod this weekend. [...]
