    Also dunno if you’d class The snowman as a movie. Arguably it’s a short but if still all about the music.

    Edit- I think the last 3 nominations don’t count as despite the good music soundtrack, their plot is not music based. That right [mention]Taz [/mention]?

    Yes this does include Musicals, but it is so, so much more than that! Any film that deals with or primarily features music, musicians, musical themes, etc and genres from biopics (Amadeus, Respect, Rocketman etc) to comedy (Almost Famous, High Fidelity, Empire Records etc), mockumentaries (Spinal Tap, Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping etc) to animated features (all those Disney movies etc), movies based on albums (The Wall, Tommy, Slade on Fire etc) and that is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg. There is a lot more out there than just musicals.

    All good.

    Film Scores are not in this Rankdown. Did specify that this was not about the film scores - will do that another time.

    As for soundtracks, some films would be acceptable, if the film is built around the music, or there is a reason for that, such as High Fidelity or Empire Records (based in a music store as an example), Baby Driver or Guardians of the Galaxy (the use of cassette mixtapes/MP3 etc throughout the movies were built into the story), but other movie soundtracks not so much. There may be some judgement calls needed to be made with this componant.

    Yes, generally the Muppets movies have all had a strong musical presence/being 'performed/sung' etc, such as Muppets Christmas Carol, The Muppets, the Muppets Most Wanted etc
