break it down to the ground, flip it back up to the mound

Oh, that title's kinda dirty. Hmm.

This one's for wHall who is trying to outbreak me. :P



Word 2 ur motha's motha.

Not an actual breakdance, but you knoooooow she wanted to bust out her moves. In case you're not familiar, that's "Top That!" from the 1989 movie Teen Witch. (If you don't feel totally embarrassed after watching that clip then I commend you for your imperviousness.)

That *is* embarassing.

I wonder if the feeling I had watching that is the same one I instill in others when I play Breakin' or Xanadu. Sometimes we have this little "movie night" game where everyone is supposed to bring 2-3 DVD's that contain their favorite scenes. The scene can be anywhere from 10 seconds to 5 minutes long. You have to know exactly where the scene is and can't take more than a minute to get there.

One of mine was this one with Turbo (Boogaloo Shrimp) and his broom. http://youtube.com/watch?v=faeH-EY0aI8 - a great routine done to some of the greatest breakdancing music ever made.

I was so enraptured by this scene in the theater. I own the DVD and Breakin' 2 and watch it often.

I actually saw that movie on TV a couple months ago. I think that one clip pretty much encapsulates the feel for the whole thing.

wH - Thank goodness you were embarrassed by that. I just watched that video and my criticisms: Not tight enough. :) Gotta pop, lock, AND drop it -- tiii-eeght.

Stef - Yup, yup. That's definitely the truth.

Dawg - Totally capris. Boys and capris should never, ever mix.

wH - and by "that video" I mean the Turbo video.
