If you want to see the real live show , I suggest you find the tears of clown show in Melbourne, it was free for fans at 3am , people bitched about the late start, hello , lady just got off a plane to Australia and goes into rehearsals for a free late night show , same day c’mon seriously?

Is the point of this podcasts to just slag Madonna off ? We have enough of that – not all her films are bad imo – I don’t even class this as a movie – it’s basically a long form music video

I was surprised that you didn't mention Michael Jackson when it came to all-time iconic entertainers, especially at that time.

8 years ago, Todd said that nobody in his lifetime was as big a superstar as Madonna was in 1991. I wonder if, in the last few years, Taylor Swift has reached that level of fame. She’s basically THE famous musician right now. She’s notorious enough that she could give the NFL a viewership bump.
I’m not a swiftie, but it seems like she’s reached Madonna levels.

"I can't think of any entertainer who was as famous as Madonna was in 1991." Did Todd forget Michael Jackson was walking around at that time, dude owned the world from 83 until about 95.

I saw Truth or Dare, in Canada, at a drive in, as a double feature with Enter the Dragon: The Bruce Lee Story. The ladies I was with, even went to the fascist state of Toronto show.
The take away is, "in a double feature with Bruce Lee's story."

My biggest gripe about the film is that if you're going to make a movie about a musical icon, shouldn't you include the musicians at some point? You can barely tell that there was a band travelling with her. I got the impression that music, per se, wasn't that interesting to her.

4:23 Toronto was even more puritan than even THAT in 1990. (With a radical left Mayor and Provincial government no less.) They out and out BANNED the Barenaked Ladies from performing in the GTA for nearly a decade because of their NAME. They tried to arrest Alice Cooper for performing a mini concert on a rooftop. It was so bad that a lot of a-list acts not named the Stones refused to play the city because of almost Mao calibre censorship and bullshit.

Honestly I don’t think Madonna was all that big in 1991. Maybe in the pop world. But the pop world was smaller then.
@steviea427
March 19, 2026 at 5:45 pm
I would think that another pop star as big as Madonna, at that time, could only be Michael Jackson.

It’s true 85 baby, and Madonna was global, she was my first crush when I saw her in Dick Tracy lol I love Warren laughing at her, a clear social and generational difference even though Beatty big dicked his way through all of Hollywood through the 70s-90s

Actually Todd modern pop culture doesn't make sense if you give Madonna credit for what made her popular. She stole everything from gay men, gay culture, a bit of Black and Latin culture and never gave a nod or shout out to any of it. But those of us who were in our 20's and had already been dancing to the music that influenced Madonna, we knew what she "borrowed", we knew what was up. Madonna was just the shiny wrapper the good stuff came in. And I guess you never heard of Michael Jackson or Whitney Houston? Jackson was already almost 20 years famous when Madonna hit the scene.

1991: Madonna told if she touches her crotch onstage, she goes to jail.
2021: Sophia Urista literally drops her trousers and pisses on a dude's face onstage, video goes viral.
MC Gusto would be appalled…

You got your wish come true, she will direct her biopic. Personally i think it would be a disaster. Can't think of anyone who would attempt such a thing except a Class-A megalomaniac.

And this documentary clearly proves why Cher called her a cunt on national television. If there’s one superstar I love but don’t want to meet in person it will be Madonna 😂😂 I’m just simply scared of her lol

Can the next movie review be Don’t Look Back?

Don’t forget the ultimate make the band look bad movie: The Beatles Let It Be. Yoko sitting pointlessly in the unproductive sessions and the band constantly sniping and back stabbing each other tossing out various ideas for an ending that never work out until the finally give up and go play up on the roof.

This is really what put Miramax in the mainstream. Also, I cannot think of a single artist whose music, and so much of it, is everywhere so often that you don't need to get an album of hers. Seriously, I can maybe name 20 hits of hers, but I have only bought two of her later records. I am not a super fan, just casual, and I know so many of her hits. It's insane.

The jab at Rattle and Hum didn't sound very accurate to me. The main criticism of that film is that they came off as awkward and shy. Plus the whole thing is intended to be an Americana road trip film, which a lot of people thought was them "appropriating" rock history and equating themselves to the legends they pay homage to. We can talk about Bono being overzealous about everything in general, but that wasn't the main dynamic of R&H.
