Spinal Tap II - The End Continues = now streaming on HBO Max

If you were a fan of the original you will love this movie. I give it a solid 9 out of 11. This is my kind of humor. A ton of callbacks to the old stuff. The characters were great again. It's pretty short but I recommend watching it. It's hilarious.

Some killer songs too! Overall the songs were much better than their Shark Sandwich album which many critics simply called Shit Sandwich.

Put off watching it, tbh.

Judging from reviews, it seems it’s not terrible but not in the same ballpark as the original.

I know there were rights issues for years, but this just feels far too late for a sequel.

Elton John singing Stonehenge with the band is all I need.

I've never seen the original, and thought they were a real band when they had a cameo on "The Simpsons"

"My..my vision!"

LOL.

Loved them at the Freddie Mercury tribute concert. Went right over the heads of most of the crowd .

" Hello Wimbledon"

( Very confused Wembley crowd)..

What about cups and cakes with McCartney? Lol. I actually woke up singing cups and cakes this morning. Lol

You didn't like it at all? It wasn't near the first one but it was still good to me. The cheese guitar? Elton John?
The little things get me. Like Nigel's pedalboard....and the wah pedal. lol - As a guitar player and being around other guitar players that is 100% right. 40 pedals on the boards but they really only need like 5 of them. And getting a new wah trying to add wah wah into every song even where it doesn't fit.

The quality has really flown off a cliff for Max. I don't trust this be good after the garbage season of peacemaker, euphoria will probably suck too.

I mean…it had very few redeeming moments.
+1 For the cheese guitar

It wasn't a great stand alone movie but basically a follow up for fans of the oringinal... watched it on a plane and it had them playing some songs from the original movie. Average at best.
