He Hits My Hair: The John Travolta Poll

there’s very little about latterday travolta that is not pretty odd tbf

the trailer is trying to build up some major Wolf of Wall Street energy.

idk i think Travolta's charisma remains effective when he's in the right role, i could see this being completely cheesy fun.

but man his hair..."hair" rather

If I had voted in this poll, I would have voted for Welcome Back, Kotter.

So, is Moment by Moment funny/interesting/weird bad, or just bad bad? There's a 1080p blu-ray rip up on YouTube for the time being.

Interesting by default--Travolta's follow-up to SNF and Grease, so the absolute zenith of his popularity--but plodding, as I remember it. If I'm counting correctly, he's been in 14 films since I put this poll up.

Actually 11--I counted some TV/video work.

Watched Moment by Moment last night (thanks for the tip, cryptosicko). Hard to figure how this got an R rating. I found Lily Tomlin's home decor and the background views of Malibu, Beverly Hills & elsewhere more interesting than the characters. "Plodding" seems accurate. There's a pair of lap dogs that get too much screen time.

There's a scene in it where Tomlin is holding Travolta's head and says, "I think you have a fever."

And I'm screaming at my TV, "It's a NIGHT Fever!"

Yeah, Tomlin's beach house was definitely the best thing about this. Otherwise, I suppose there is some pleasure to be had here for bad movie aficionados--the matching haircuts, the banal dialogue, Tomlin and Travolta's legendary anti-chemistry--but mostly I thought it was just dull.
