    Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, followed closely by Calamity Jane w/ Doris Day.

    We seriously must be twins! These have been my top two while growing up.

    I do have to say, however, that my current favorite is Newsies. My son now wants to sell "papes" all the time. :)

    Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long Blog. It's a musical that is also a 3 episode tv show. It's easy enough to watch in one sitting, it's about 90 minutes long.

    If it is a musical, it has to be seen in live theater imho. My two favorites have been The Merry Widow and Showboat.

    It's not my favorite but since it hasn't been mentioned, I love Paint Your Wagon. Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin singing?! Lee Marvin's I Was Born Under A Wanderin' Star is lovely. I have the soundtrack on vinyl.

    ETA that the Muppet Movie is my favorite, probably followed by Annie. (I have both of those on vinyl too)
