This week, Dave, Neil, and Joanna debate the best jukebox musical movie! They start by talking about the movie that inspired this debate, ‘Joker: Folie à Deux,’ as well as why the studio is afraid to show it to the press (7:20). Then, they get into the history of jukebox musicals (19:20) and go through some pretrial awards and dismissals (37:57). Later, they reveal each of their top three choices and listen to some of your picks to figure out which four should make it to the final poll (49:18).
Now it’s up to you to decide! What is the best jukebox musical movie? You can vote for the winner at TheRinger.com, on The Ringer’s X feed, and in the Spotify app, where you’ll find ‘Trial by Content.’ The winner will be announced on the next episode!
You can send your picks for the next topic and a few sentences to support your pick to [email protected]. You can also submit suggestions for future ‘Trial by Content’ topics. Is there a great pop culture debate that you’d like us to settle? Send it on over!
