Sometime back I did start a thread on The Road pictures order of preference. Not sure under what section and heading that was. I think the general concenus was that Hong Kong Was the worst.

Carmela, I also have a soft spot for ROAD TO SINGAPORE and especially to Bing's rendition of 'Too romantic'. The articles in the latest issue of BING are thought-provoking. I've sent a note to Malcolm about the popularity of the various ROAD movies in Australia so perhaps it may appear in a future issue of the magazine.

I too, have always thought Road To Singapore is an excellent film, and certainly in the running for best "Road" film. The thing I like about Singapore is that it is the only "Road" film where Bing's character has a family, a father and a fiancé. Also, it predates the antics of speaking to the camera and talking camels, etc. It is not that I do not like the zany developments as the "Road" films progressed, but I do like the fact that in Singapore they played it straight. I think the first 5 "Road": films are all excellent. Bali is a step down and Hong Kong a couple of further steps down.

When they had the Bing Crosby Film Festival for a week at the Lincoln Center a number of years ago. I went for two of those days. "Road to Zanzibar" was screened one of those days and I got such a big kick out of hearing people, who had obviously never seen the film before, laughing out loud at jokes and gags that I only smile at now after dozens of viewings of each "Road" film. They are classics and whenever they are on TV, I watch and wonder who out there is seeing it for the first time and laughing their head off.

Back in 2011 Lobosco had a discussion site on the Road movies

With the lack of conversation on the board, I don't think that another post on the Road movies is a bad thing.
