Won't you take me to...?

BOOGIE TOWN!!

The good news: in the future, specifically in New York, there will no longer be the threat of violence and/or drugs. The bad news: in their place will be... wait for it... ILLEGAL STREET DANCE CONTESTS. If we ignore the fact that, according to the trailer, it seems that there might be the sliiiightest bit of violence still rampant, yet tied to the far more looming threat to society that is street dancing, in future!NYC, we can focus on the fact that never before in the history of recycled movie plot amalgamations has such a winner been brought before us. Yeah, I too cannot believe it's taken until now for such an obvious, and yet entirely genius, plot to hit the silver screen. this movie is You Got Served meets Fast and the Furious (Tokyo Drift, obvy) meets Westside Story.

Basically, the story, which I haven't seen but can still assume, goes a li'l somethin' like this:
Roger, after getting sick and tired of being treated as Tia and/or Tamara's (on which one was he uuuuber-crushing? I can never remember) whipping boy, decided to try his hand in making the panties drop, all Boyz II Men/Chico DeBarge-style. With all his newfound fame and glory came famous and ritzy connections, through which he met LondonTipton. He and LondonTipton fell madly in lurve, but weren't allowed to showcase it for Disney wouldn't allow it. They attempted to keep their forbidden lurve a secret - and we all know how great Disney stars are at keeping secrets (like secret naked/racist/Annie Liebowitz/sex shop photos) - but their respective families found out (I think the confrontation is more indepthly explored in the next Tyler Perry movie). So, then, Roger was forced to yell "MARIAAAAAAA!" and their racially-mismatched families got involved and everyone put on their rinestone gloves to express themselves... through DANCE! Which, I'm guessing, is the REAL point of the movie.



So I treat this particular post as a call to arms for everyone reading (all two of you) to join me, come yet to be determined day in June 2009, in helping give this little 'ol movie the ticket sales and general boost it needs to be the next great dance movie of our generation.
