That is all. Glad to get that off my chest. "
I am just wondering if that actually takes anything away from their skating.
Now the music is really bad and I can't see how anyone can sit through that movie more than once, but they actually make the music quality irrelevent. I mean it starts, you think "Crap, not les Parapluies!!", then it's over and you wonder how that could have lasted 4 minutes. Did it last 4 minutes?
I mean I can speak French and I could not care less what they are babling about. The skating takes center stage. These kids could probably skate to experimental Yoko Ono or old school Pantera and make it a winner. OK, maybe they would just place top 3, but you get my point...
