All Saints > Spice Girls for me. They actually had swag, SG didn’t feel like it was actually there, they were more dorky in real life, weren’t they? The SG movie ruined whatever positive image I had of them

I've never seen the Spice Girls movie... it's the kind of thing you wouldn't really expect to be any good.

I saw the Spice Girls Bus once, it was getting a fill-up in Langley. I don't think there were any Spice Girls on it, but then I didn't check..

Rock Steady was a great comeback,
this and Scar off that album still get regular airings here.corny as f*ck they may be, i care not.love'em.got the last album hidden away but not really listened to it much as it didn't make that much of an impression when i did listen to it.was supposed to see AS this year at Camp Bestival, but the weather was seriously nasty, so stayed in the jungle/d-n-b tent checking out Congo Natty.swings and roundabouts.

I might have to watch it drunk someday.

Yes it's awesome! I actually saw it at the theater when it came out.
― LeRooLeRoo, Sunday, 5 November 2017 22:55 (six years ago) link
it is a cult classic, i saw a re-screening in a theater a few years back
definitely enjoyable in some way, alcohol would certainly help

I think Spice World was too self-consciously striving to be a cult classic to actually become one. There's just too much defensive irony.(I also saw it during the brief US theatrical run, and I think it probably would have been more fun if we weren't the only 3 people in the theater)

I just... don't think I'm part of the target audience for a Spice Girls movie, as much as I like the music.

lol I meant both comeback attempts by All Saints upthread, not "Headlines" which is awful.
Spiceworld is a movie full of great moments and Victoria is hilarious in it but it doesn't quite come off - it's too knowingly camp without actually pulling it off.

Oh lol of course, I'd completely forgotten about their second comeback!
