    I tried to watch this once a few years ago, but my senile dog did a big shit in the living room, so I had to attend to that .. I always think of dogshit and my dead dog when I think of Mary Poppins

    disco

    Better than The Sound Of Music, but also a bit on the long-winded side - there's a huge section the lovely Ms Poppins disappears. Earn that Oscar, bitch!

    I knocked a point off for the poor performance of the little boy.

    A normal person must
    Dismiss you with disgust
    And weep for those who trusted you.

    Never saw it in full, believe it or not. Guess it's time to pop that DVD that's been gathering dust on my mum's shelf into the player at long last.

    Or wait till the next Bank Holiday, of course.

    Has anyone seen the stage show? It's quite different to the film and doesn't involve penguins but it's still smashing.

    I know this is a proper classic, but ive only ever seen it 1.5 times, i watched it once as a child then half of it as an adult and i really didnt like it.

    Im not sure WHY.

    It disgusts my friends that i dont love it.

    I much prefer the Sound of Music.

    Perfect family movie. Spoiled for me a little bit due to overexposure when we bought it for my niece on DVD and then subjected to it for months on end.
    And if we stay together
    We'll feel the rhythm of the evening taking us up high
    Never mind the weather
    We'll be dancing in the street until the morning light

    I've only seen the first half recently as my niece is currentle obsessed but as far as I remember it all goes a bit BLEAK and BANKY towards the end.

    Julie Andrews is BEYOND AMAZING in it and for that reason I could watch it many times over but it is TOTALLY let down by the middle section when Australian Dick Van Dyke takes over and it goes all Disney extreme

    Some of the songs are ace though

    Really should see this in the West End while it's STILL ON

    their mum was such a good minor character. Camp as tits. She should have been in it more

    The production closed on January 12, 2008, after a run of more than three years.[5]

    I was going to KILL anyone who didn't give it a ten, but it seems there are quite a few of you freaks around, and frankly I don't have the time.

    I remember going to see this with my mum at the cinema back in the 1980's.

    It precedes Brit psychedelia by a couple of years but tea parties, jumping through pavements, flying a kite, dancing and talking penguins, um... feed the birds/tuppence a bag... all seem like one big euphemism for getting stoned.

    Julie Andrews is pitch perfect, but really I wish David Tomlinson and Glynis Johns had been my parents.
