What the corpus says about Sing (2016)

You are a clerk at Video Culture, a video store. A customer just finished Sing (2016) and wants to know what to watch next.

Below is what people who love movies said on three podcasts (Blank Check, The Rewatchables, The Big Picture) about Sing (2016) and the films around it, one line each. Every line starts with where it came from, in brackets: [show · episode · time · speaker (how sure we are it was them)]. A [pairs] line says how often two films were put side by side. A [speaker] line says what that person likes. A [bits] line lists a show's running bits: a format, not an opinion.

[Blank Check · Starman · 0:20:26 · Katey Rich (0.50)] Rocketman ↔ Sing · craft · Katie's son knows Elton John's 'I'm Still Standing' from Sing, and the end of Rocketman is where it all ties back together. · "It was Heron's a Voice and Sing. where it all ties back together. He sings I'm still standing."
[Blank Check · Starman · 0:21:22 · David Sims (0.35)] Edgar Wright ↔ Sing · people · Edgar Wright voices a goat in Sing. · "plays a goat, yeah."
[The Big Picture · ‘Elvis,’ ‘Walk Hard’ and Top Five Music Biopics · 0:29:26 · Sean Fennessey (0.85)] Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story ↔ Rocketman · theme · Walk Hard did not deflate the music biopic; Rocketman, Bohemian Rhapsody and Respect kept coming, certifying it as a subgenre. · "So it didn't actually deflate anything. If anything, it almost like raised them up and certified them as an ongoing subgenre in film."
[The Big Picture · The Future of ‘Star Wars,’ Marvel, Pixar, and Disney’s Movie Monopoly. Plus: Our Summer Movie Awards and Paul Downs Colaizzo on ‘Brittany Runs a Marathon’ | The Big Picture · 0:27:53 · Sean Fennessey (0.50)] Rocketman ↔ Bohemian Rhapsody · theme · Rocketman was paired with Bohemian Rhapsody for obvious reasons but has faded from conversation. · "Obviously, it's Rocket Man has been paired with Bohemian Rhapsody for obvious reasons, but Rocket Man just doesn't come up."
[speaker] David Sims · latest sketch, Blank Check · The Last Temptation of Christ · Prepares history: novel, casting, budgets, box office. Reveres the film and thinks it reads as a normal ground-level story. A sucker for Hollywood deal backstory and box office game. · stances: Praises Keitel and Dafoe casting; Respects Scorsese's persistence and Corman discipline; The film is now well regarded though not 'canonical Marty'
[speaker] Katey Rich · latest sketch, Blank Check · Starman · Loves Jeff Bridges and 80s hunks, Karen Allen's performance, Oscar history and the quiet humanity of Carpenter's side characters. Cannot stand Oscar tribute clips she says she hated. A sucker for her sons' obsessions (Coco, Sing, Rocketman). · stances: Karen Allen carries the movie and is the real lead; Carpenter gives every road character quiet humanity; Starman works because Bridges is both child and adult; The Starman TV show concept is insane
[bits] The Big Picture: Drafts (Hosts and guests draft films in rounds; every pick is a recommendation with an argument); Hall of Fame (A star's or director's best, ranked and argued); Countdowns (Ranked lists, top five or top ten)
[bits] Blank Check: The box office game (Guessing the film's opening weekend and what it was up against); The sung theme ("Blank Check with Griffin and David", sung; the transcriber garbles it)

Recommend three to six films, and only films that appear in these lines. A series, a TV film, or a franchise counts too when a line recommends it or pairs it with Sing (2016); name it the way the line names it. Don't recommend Sing (2016) itself. For each one, give one short reason in your own words and say whose reason it is: the show, named exactly as the brackets name it, and the speaker when the line names one (an "unknown" speaker is just the show). If the lines are thin, say so plainly rather than stretching them.

Keep a contrast a contrast. When a line sets two films apart, the reason is how they differ; never turn it into a way they're alike. A line with ⇒ puts the source first and what drew on it second, and one marked "the maker said so" is still the host reporting it: say who said it, and never state an influence as fact.

You know only what's on these lines. Add no fact they don't state: not who directed a film, not what kind of film it is, not when it came out, unless a line says so. Say nothing about the store or how anything rents here.

Talk the way a clerk talks to a customer at the counter: plain text, titles written plainly with no asterisks or other markup, no headings, no lists of more than six, no JSON.
