Actors with surprisingly impressive singing voices
Dwayne Johnson is not short on charisma or confidence, which probably helped him get behind the mic for Disney’s animated epic ‘Moana’, in which he knocked out a surprisingly decent tune in ‘You’re Welcome’, a song that’s basically about being awesome (watch a snippet above). Adams wasn’t your typical stage-school educated actress wannabe, content with a career in acting/singing/dancing/whatever – in fact, she got her start performing dinner theatre shows and working in Hooters. Although she sang in her school choir, Adams didn’t have to test her lungs on screen until Princess Gisele felt musical in ‘Enchanted’, but she needn’t have worried – she more than did justice to Alan Menken’s music, particularly the none-chirpier ‘Happy Little Working Song’.

Top 10 movies you should NEVER watch on a plane
There’s a fairy obvious reason you won’t find this 1993 Frank Marshall movie when browsing through your plane’s movie catalogue – there’s a honking great plane crash in Act 1, which leaves an entire Uruguayan rugby team stranded in the Andes. Sure, on the surface, this Peter Weir movie appears to show the upside of surviving a plane crash. Think positive! Jeff Bridges accepts that his death is imminent as his plane plummets towards the ground, but when he survives, his fearlessness is seen as an asset – that is, until he starts prancing around on rooftops, convinced of his own immortality.

The Conqueror: The story of the most toxic movie in Hollywood history
Dick Powell’s 1956 epic ‘The Conqueror’, however, was such a movie – a fatally miscast and directionless bore that forever tarnished the career of star John Wayne, bankrupted RKO Pictures and potentially contributed to the deaths of scores of its own cast and crew. Nobody sets out to make a bad movie, let alone one of the most critically reviled movies of all time, so to understand ‘The Conqueror’, you have to go back to see how bad decision upon bad decision led to it being made.
