I agree on everything with you! It's an amazing movie ✨
Sing 2 Review (SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!) ⚠️
I just watched Sing 2 and I have got to say, I LOVED IT!! The animation! The scenery! The characters! The songs! Everything was amazing!
Let me talk about some moments and some highlights of the movie. There will be spoilers so if you want to wait until you see the movie, feel free to skip ahead.
Now let us begin!
The opening scene, I'll be honest, came out of nowhere. It was a bit weird but at the same time enjoyable to watch. It's nice to see that the characters still perform at the theater. And it was nice hearing more of meena singing. In the first movie, meena didn't really sing that much so I enjoyed hearing her vocals in this scene. It was also very colorful, as expected from an illumination movie.
The cover of 'let's go crazy' was great!
Nice to see that nana noodlemen comes to see the shows now. Makes sense what with her love of the theater and all.
I found it funny how rosita managed to convince everyone to head to redshore city. Just her facial expressions as she mentioned how she convinced her husband to watch over her kids. Which I imagine can't be easy
Also, did her kids multiply since the last time we saw them? It looked like there was more than usual
The bus scene was nice. Seeing how their songs caught the attention of everyone on the bus and how they were just vibing to it
The scene where they're sneaking into the crystal building (I forgot what it was called) got a smile out of me.
Can't say I didn't feel bad when Johnny's head hit the door. But I also can't say I didn't chuckle at the scene.
I immediately got bad vibes from Jimmy crystal.
The song they sing when convincing him to do the show sounded beautiful.

Gunter is just me when coming up with a fanfic. Constantly changing things up
Seeing how everyone interacted with the piglets was cute!
Klaus is an ass.
Okay, I'll be honest. I didn't really like Darius. He just came off as....oh how do I put it? Unbearable?
Number of Jimmy crystal's threats: #1
I like the small detail where you can see porsha get sad when her father leaves her to his assistants.
Clay Calloway is prepared for intruders. Though I think he may have scarred miss Crawly.
I felt so bad for Rosita in the next scene.
Seeing Johnny basically get a panic attack because of Klaus made me hate him even more!
I love Johnny and nooshy interactions with each other! When Johnny asks if they could talk over coffee or something, nooshy states that he's kinda forward and he immediately started stuttering. Methinks the two have good chemistry -w-
Number of Jimmy Crystal's threats: #2
Meena and Alfonso are so cute together!
Clay warned them about the fence. Now they ded-
Okay, every moment that showed Clay Calloway made me sad. And the song ash sang didn't help, it just made me cry.
I felt bad when porsha got yelled at by Jimmy. She really is talented, her dad's just an ass
Never thought I'd see attempted murder in a movie about singing-.....actually, scratch that I've seen the lion king.
While suki isn't my favorite, I did like how she helped buster out.
The first thing buster does is warn his friends about Jimmy and I love that. He truly does care about them
There's never a dull moment with buster moon. One minute you could be practicing for a show, the next you're jumping out a window!
THE MAIN PERFORMANCE!!!
The scenery was beautiful!! I wish there was a show like that in real life. Though I probably couldn't afford to see one like that ;w;
Loved Johnny's part! When he's singing near the end and you hear his voice get more and more intense as it goes on gave me goosebumps!
Porsha's song and character development was great! I also liked how she stood up to her dad as well.
Yeah no, my feelings towards Darius haven't changed.
Meena x Alfonso
And now time to show the kiddies another attempted murder scene! :D
Ash and Clay's performance made me tear up a bit. I loved it!
Rot in hell jimmy
Porsha has joined the adopted daughter of buster moon list alongside ash
Welp, that's all I have to say about to movie. I tried not to spoil too much but there's just so much to talk about! I hope we'll get either a third movie or maybe a series!
Prefer a series though since we've seen what happens when they continue a movie franchise (despicable me)
Anyway, that's all for now! Have a nice day! ^^
AFTER RED SHORE (PART 1)
Falling...
Falling...
Fall-
Buster Moon snapped awake, crying out into fhe darkness as he shot up from his pillow. He frantically grabbed his pajama shirt and clutched his chest. His heart was beating wildly against his chest. He took a few deep breaths, attempting to compose himself before lying back down.
A week since his group's adventure to Red Shore City. A week since Jimmy Chrystal was placed in jail. A week since... since his nearly fatal experience.
With a shuddering breath, Buster closed his eyes, but as soon as he did, all he saw was Mr. Chrystal's face as he watched him fall. He snapped his eyes back open and sat up. He'd had near death experience before, for goodness sake. A theater nearly fell on top of him 2 years prior. But this... somehow this was different.
Unable to sleep, Buster jumped up and began dressing. Glancing at his phone he saw it was nearing 4 o'clock in the morning.
"I might as well get an early start." The Showman said, forcing a chuckle to no one but himself.
Having lost his bowtie during the whole experience, Buster, instead buttoned his shirt, threw on his blazer and made his way down the spiral staircase leading straight to his office.
There on the desk, he switched on his computer and was met with several Emails. He quickly put on some coffee and went through them.
Since the success of their hit show "Out of this World", theaters from all over state and even beyond were asking Buster and his crew to perform. After talking to his crew, they had decided to do two shows each week in different cities before expanding and traveling.
It'd be difficult with Rosita's role as a mother of 25 but Buster was adamant that she remain the lead role. After all, he had written it specifically for her.
Buster smiled as he remembered her face when he gave the news. Of course, he had written specific roles for all his adopted family members, although Porsha was a bit odd to add in.
Ah, Porsha. A spunky kid, Buster had to give her that and definitely had a voice. Buster felt somewhat responsible for her being on her own with her father in jail. But from recent phone calls, she was doing very well and even planned to visit during the show's tour.
An Email popped up and Buster smiled when he noticed it was from his best friend, Eddie. After the theater was rebuilt, Eddie became the stage hand for about a year before he realized he wanted to go back to school. He and Buster had met in college, but the sheep never had intentions to graduate. Having a job as Buster's stage-hand gave him a sense of purpose. So, he went back to school to find a greater one.
Another Email popped up, this time from Mike, saying he and Nancy were staying an extra few days in the Bahamas for their anniversary, but sent their congratulations on the show.
After answering the Emails, Buster grabbed his coffee and headed downstairs to do some last minute inspections on the crew's sets and costumes. Nana had taken the liberty of renting them a travel trailer, big enough for the equipment they'd need for each show.
It was closer to 7 when Buster finished his rounds and returned to his office. He was expecting a visit from Nana Noodleman herself to discuss further tours around 8.
Buster was tidying his office when a soft knock came to his ear and Buster looked up and saw the one and only Clay Calloway standing in his door way.
"Morning, Moon, got a minute?" He asked.
Buster smiled. "Of course, Mr. Calloway, what can I do for you?"
"Clay, please." The lion moved to have have a seat on Buster's office couch. "Need to ask a favor, Moon."
"Okay, all ears."
"For my opening scene, with Ash and I, I was wondering if you could make to where..." Clay cleared his throat. "Where tiger lillies would fall on us."
Buster hopped onto his own chair. "I think we make that happen. Can I ask the significance in it?"
Clay stared at him before turning away. A second later, he responded. "They were my wife's favorite flower." He said.
Buster nodded in response.
A moment of silence passed before Clay looked up and saw the photo frames of Buster's little family lined up in a row. "You must not have a lot of family to call your own, huh?"
Buster followed his gaze before nodding. "After my father passed away, I was alone. Till I met these guys. They're my family now."
"When you lose him?"
"3 and a half years ago." Buster's ears dropped a bit. Gosh, had it really been that long? He passed away a year before Buster put on the singing competition and met the group.
Clay saw the look in Buster's eyes. A look all too familiar. "You miss him?"
Buster frowned. "Everyday."
Clay nodded. "My wife passed away years ago and yet... yet it still stings like it was yesterday."
Another moment of silence passed before Clay cleared his throat. "Well, so Tiger lillies. We can do it?"
Buster quickly wiped his eyes with the sleeve of his coat and adopted back his optimistic smile. "Of course, Clay! In fact! Next show we do will be in honor of your wife."
Clay smiled. "Sounds good, Moon."
________________________________________________
Ash parked her motorcycle and walked into the theater. After the whole ordeal in Red Shore City, Ash started taking up part time in Buster's theater. Doing a few shows on the side, even starting a duet with Clay and helping him with his comeback to the world.
Her bike keys rattled in her pocket and she couldn't help but grin. The success of the show earned her enough money to pay for a car, but after shopping with Clay, she settled on a beautiful red Harley Motorcycle, which she thought suit her style better anyway.
Clay. She still couldn't believe she was on a first name basis and now even close friends with her hero. Having never had ths best relationship with her grandparents, Clay felt like the grandpa she never had. Of course, the father role belonged to Buster and mother belonged to Rosita.
Ash stopped before she entered the theater.
Buster.
She had nearly lost him just a week prior. Her quills shivered a bit. She didn't like Chrystal to begin with, but the attempts he made on Buster's life really made her quills itch. There was so much going on, she hadn't found out about Rosita saving Buster till later that evening. After she was told, she remembered grabbing Buster into a tight hug, terrified to let him go. The entire crew fell into a frightened group hug with the koala.
Buster hadn't shown any sign that the whole experience had bothered him and that worried her. Buster wasn't one to show his own feelings, he's always adamant about keeping his group happy and safe.
"You stupid koala," Ash said, under her breath. "When are your big ears gonna listen to the fact that we're here for YOU too."
"Ash?"
Ash jumped and instinctively fired one of her quills.
A tiny yelp made her turn to face Johnny who was trying to take a quill out of his arm.
Ash smiled awkwardly. "It's less painful if you just yank it." She said as she demonstrated.
Johnny yelped again. "That didn't FEEL less painful." He mumbled. "So, are you okay? You looked a little zoned out there."
Ash frowned. "It's Buster." She said bluntly. "That stupid koala is going to get himself killed one of these days. He nearly did last week. All because of a stupid lie. If we'd never gone to Red-"
"Whoa, whoa! What's going on 'ere?"
The two turned and saw Marcus walking up with a bucket of snacks and un-popped pop corn for future shows. "Ash, love, you okay? Johnny here ain't being a nuisance, is he?"
Ash managed a smile. "No, sir."
"Ash is just a little worried about Mr. Moon." Johnny explained.
"Oh? Last week still on your mind?"
Ash nodded as she frowned.
"Why don't you talk to him?" Johnny asked. "Tell him what's bothering you."
"Because it's Buster. Sure he listens to our problems and stuff, but soon as I tell him about THIS, he'll shrug it off and tell me not to worry about him. He doesn't like being worried over. Which is why I think he's been avoiding this subject."
Marcus clicked his tongue. "Well, I can speak from experience that if he doesn't talk to someone, it'll eat him alive." The older gorilla huffed. "Sadly, I learned the hard way when your mother passed, son. Your uncles helped me though."
"So it's our turn to help Buster." Johnny said.
"Help with what?" Rosita asked, joining the group, Gunter close behind. They'd had been carpooling together ever since Gunter got an apartment next door to Rosita. The enitre group loved the piglets and often babysat for them to allow Rosita and Norman more time together. Gunter moving in next door gave them more help if there was an emergency.
"Getting Buster to open up about the show last week." Ash explained.
"Oh." Rosita frowned. She remembered when saw him. She had been so afraid to jump, but seeing her friend, falling to his demise...
It was then, in that split second, she realized losing Busted scared her far more then her fear of heights.
"He really hasn't mentioned it much, has he?" Rosita sighed. They had been so busy, she hadn't noticed the change in their friend till yesterday. The dark circles under his eyes told of many sleepless nights, the lack of appetite and sudden jerk movements were also worrying.
Gunter put a paw to her shoulder, noticing her down casted look. "Let's go talk to him now, jà?"
But their plan was temporarily forgotten when Nana Noodleman pulled up shortly after they entered the theater.
"Good morning, everyone." She greeted.
"Morning, Miss Noodleman!" The cast greeted back.
"Oh, please, call me Nana. Has anyone seen Mr. Moon this morning?"
As if hearing his name (with his sharp ears, he probably did) Buster came sliding down the stairwell, landing right next to Nana.
"Morning, everyone! Hope you dreamed big dreams, because today is going to be amazing! Not only are we going to be preforming in Zootopia next week, but from my understanding the new Mayor will be joining, as well as his family. So, I want everyone at their best! Which will be difficult, because you already are the best."
The group smiled and blushed a bit at that.
Buster clapped his paws together "Nana! Welcome, if you'll be so kind to wait in my office, I have Miss Crawley preparing tea as we speak."
Nana smiled before making her way up the stairs.
Meena arrived shortly after. "Sorry, I'm late. Alfonso called jusy before I walked in."
"No worries, Meena, is he going to be joining us at the show? I have to know now so I can book an extra seat in the box." Buster said.
Meena frowned. "No, not this time. He can't make it. Red Shore City is holding a fair and tyey asked him to sale his ice cream." She said, sadly.
"Don't worry, Meena, I'm sure he hates to miss it." Rosita said.
Meena smiled.
"Ah! Marcus! Fantastic! If you'll be so kind as to drop that off near the snack stand!" Buster smiled.
Marcus nodded as he headed off.
Nooshy and Darius were last to arrive. Nooshy had become part of Johnny's act and, since nothing tied her down to Red Shore, she had moved to Calatonia, crashing with Johnny and his dad, before getting a job with Buster's theater. Darius, on the other hand, stayed in a hotel, practicing with the group, before driving back and forth to Red Shore to shoot commercials.
Clay joined them, having ducked out to receive his guitar. He fist bumped Ash as they joined up to practice in one of the sound booths.
Buster gave out instructions to everyone before heading back upstairs for his meeting.
Rostia watched as he disappeared. Still ever the optimistic koala, but still worried for him. After practice, she thought, he and I are going to have a little talk.
