The 1999 end of the world. That was one of the greatest event in the 20th century.

Almost all humans believed it, I remember people selling off properties and church recorded the highest attendance in the history of Christianity.

Their Thompson sub-machine guns (Tommy guns) fired custard, their cars had bicycle pedals and were propelled by human power and they had massive cream pie fights. This is the first Jodie Foster movie that I ever watched (she was just 13 when she acted in this film).

Bugsy Malone

(I think they mashed up the names Bugsy Siegel, Moran and Al Capone).

Coincidence.

I typed the lyrics of Is It Good To You a few days ago and it included the line, "My main man did it in Charles In Charge". Charles In Charge was a sitcom that Scott Baio starred in. It aired from 1984-1990.

Now I'm watching "See Dad Run" (2012-2015), another sitcom that Scott Baio acted in and I decided to Google him because I was trying to remember the name of another sitcom that he acted in (Happy Days 1977-1984) and I discover that he was Bugsy Malone!

I've posted about Bugsy Malone many times on this thread (It's one of my favourite childhood movies), but for those who don't know, Bugsy Malone was a 1976 mafia comedy. All the parts were played by children (including 13 year old Jodie Foster). Their machine guns fired whipped cream and their cars had pedals.


Scott Baio also acted in Diagnosis Murder.

With Akinloye Oyebanji. The good old days.

This was usually preceded by that NTA program, Giant In The Sun. Whoa.

Menn I must say, I miss the good old days so much.

naptu2:
This was the theme song of the series Giant in the Sun that was shown on the NTA in the early 1980s.

(Giant in the Sun was a series in which very interesting things from all over Nigeria were shown)

One day I'll find the theme song for Kwagh-Hir, the fantastic puppet and masquerade show from Benue.

naptu2:
That song! The song that the band is playing right now was the theme tune for Giant in The Sun, a programme that was shown on the NTA in the mid-1980s. I wish I knew the title and the lyrics.

naptu2:
YES! I HAVE FOUND IT!


You see! I am not mad and I did not imagine it. Here it is!

Giant in The Sun (1983)

This is one of my favourite movies (even though I can no longer completely remember the plot). It's one of the best movies ever.


This is a 12 year old Jodie Foster singing.

(Someone that commented on the YouTube video asked, "What do they teach 12 year old girls in North Carolina??" )


Jodie Foster - My Name Is Tallulah (from the movie Bugsy Malone) (1976).

naptu2:
Aha! Dear diary, this is what I wanted to show you the last time I posted about Bugsy Malone. I've finally found it!


1) Look at their cars. Look closely at their cars. What's making the cars move? (Don't worry if you didn't see it, cos I'm still going to look for a better video, but in the meantime, look at their legs when they are in the cars).


2) Look at their guns. Now look at their bullets.


This movie was awesome


This is the grand finale of the movie.


Bugsy Malone (1976).
