OP
Quoted from SantaEatsCheese:

I was born in 1986 and just found out there is a cool 70s song called the pinball wizard that is pretty catchy. Great theme with the WHO and Elton John

Immediately after finding this I found out that song was only one piece in a Rock Opera Film called Tommy released in 1975. A movie about Pinball with rock music? Take a look at the preview.

Starts off strong. But as soon as they bounce off of the theme song it goes.... down hill. What is this movie even about? I can tell nothing from the previews other than Elton John used to be decent 45 years ago.
Also... if you can make it through Logans run without laughing at the soundtrack you are an enigma.

Youngish guy rant over.

Is this post a joke? Genuinely asking
