So, if you grew up watching movies from the last +25 years I'm sure you've seen or at least heard of Sister Act II. The movie with starring Whoopi Goldberg, Kathy Najimy (Peggy Hill), Maggie Smith (Professor McGonagall, in Harry Potter) & the lovely Lauryn Hill.

Anyway, if you have seen the movie you should remember this scene

After years have gone by seeing this movie my sister & I have no reason to watch it, but make observations of it & laugh at how it really don't add up.
Now, what I want to know is how they pull this off? Did they plan to do all this dancing in their robes? What about the kids with hats on? Did they have them in they back pockets? You got kids with Tims on & some with a gym shoes on... They had all this on under their choir robes... I just spent a good 15 minutes picking apart this scene with my sister. :russ:

You even got folks backflipping & shyt. They had this all pre-planned to be done on the choir robes??? :mindblown:

We used to ask this in 8th grade. and how did ma dukes get a ticket that late? And right in the aisle? And right before their performance with like 40 choirs performing? And how come the group that was singing 'in the still of the night' had that white boy snapping his fingers so hard off rhythm?:jbhmm:

this is why I don't snap my fingers or clap my hands to anything in public :mjcry: it's fukking genetic I swear. And I played instruments from elementary to highschool. I have to really focus to stay on beat. Hell, I gotta pull the metronome out when I'm fukkin'.
