"Ken's piece to "Dogs in the Yard" would bring tears to your eyes, I tell ya!"

Wait a minute, KEN IS GAY!? ;)

If you view the new movie as a modern interpretation and leave it at that, you may like it. They took pretty much the same movie, same character ideas but made it a bit more modern. I missed the characters/actors/songs that I loved and that will always be *my* Fame, but I love that a new generation is getting to see it and appreciate it.
