I love them both, but I can let my children watch Wind, whil I cannot let them see Tap until they're older. So, I give Wind an A++++ while I can only give Tap an A+++. What do you guys think?

I think I actually enjoyed A Mighty Wind more, although This is Spinal Tap was great too....

Love Spinal Tap!
Reading this makes me remember I bought a VHS long ago with new scenes in it and haven't watched it! I hope I can find it!
Never heard of A mighty Wind...

Yeah, I need to get the Tap DVD. I have the Wind DVD and the deleted scenes are hilarious!

Also, Wind has a better "shock ending" than Tap, which doesn't really hav a shock ending at all.

I have seen them both now. I didn't identify with Wind quite as much. A year or so ago I tried to watch Best in Show, but it became difficult after only a few minutes and I had to give it up after a half hour. I have listened to and played rock music since I was a kid but I've never enjoyed Folk. With Wind it seemed like I was watching a 2 hour inside joke. I thought some segments were very amusing but others not so much. For me, Tap is king.

As a musician, I thought there was enought there for me to associate with in both movies. Don't like folk music? Not even Peter, Paul & Mary? The Mommas and the Pappas? Dylan? What, are you sick?

Sorry. I don't mean to impune Wind or Folk music in any way. I just don't enjoy it. Its true. I'd rather listen to Ramones than Momma Cass. No offense meant.

Did you know "Daddy Day Care" has Cheap Trick performing in it?

Kyrstie watched it and didn't tell me. Hmmm... I suppose I can rent it for myself next time. She said it was very amusing.

It is, very. The Flash and Star Trek references alone are worth the rental.
