I have loved this movie since I first seen it when I was fourteen,my mother has loved it since she first saw it as a young girl in the seventies, I love the beautiful Lonette Mckee, and Irene Cara very much and all the woman in the movie, Bravo!!!
Love this movie, own it on vhs. This particular scene is vital because it's the turning point for the sisters, Lonette "Sista" gets with Satan leading to her downfall. Good movie, looking forward to the remake!
I happen to think En vogue did a badd ass remake of this song! I would like it VERY MUCH if someone would upload that version to youtube. If they already have, I can't find it.
I don't want them to remake it!!:( I love the original movie just the way it is! When the "NEW" one comes out noone should go see it!! Well in my opinion! :D LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!
All these sistas are beautiful and I love this song... I'm young but I wish they still made real music like this. Most of the music today is trashy and lack soul due to the white man infiltrating black music.
Wasn't Aaliyah supposed to remake Sparkle? It was either her or Raven Symone from what I understand...but of course after babygirl's untimely passing & Raven's done gained so much weight the project is still sitting around collecting dust waiting for the right girl to come along to fit into those "Ruby Slippers" so to speak and carry this project out like Tupac's role for "Baby Boy". I always thought Jordin Sparks would be a beautiful addition to it if she's got the talent to challenge a remake.
@LibranWay Yea your right Aaliyah was apart of the original cast to remake the movie. But the movie is so good. I don't think they should touch it. Its so real and raw. Sparkle was just so innocent and sweet. We all fell in love with her.
Dream Girls did ok (Eddie Murphey deserved an Oscar but that's down to politricks) but if Jordin can pull off a convincing dramatic performance with charm and personality then this movie can be bigger than Dream Girls.
Tika doesn't come to mind when you think pushed to the side. Derek Luke as Stix might be a win .Omari as Levi (no) Jordin Sparks as Sparkle (No) I love them all . The First was just so so so good .
@MalpracticeSuit Keep in mind that the remake isn't aimed at fans of the original. It will appeal to the American idol generation who most likely wouldn't know the original. Jordin as the lead character is a savy choice. She can sing, and will be able to bring the audience that voted for her on AI to the box office. As long as the cast have good chemistry and the script doesn't stray too far from its roots it should be good. Whitney brings her star quality and charisma back to the big screen.
@bolder2009 Iam amerian idol generation ( I just don't ever watch it ) . I see now what you are saying but as you know Sparkle the original was so real , true and deep . I can't see it being turned into something semi-disney. Yes many , many people will fill the seats just to see their favorites...........I know I will be there
@MalpracticeSuit Sparkle is a labour of love for Whitney. This is a project that is close to her heart, and after Aaliyah died she more or less gave up on it. In the years that followed she has also suffered some incredible lows in her own life, so I look at this project as part of her recovery and restoration. This is not a vanity project for her, which is why I believe that this will be a soulful and authentic film. But its obviously not gonna be exactly like the original.
@bolder2009 aretha is loved but the fact that she covered all the songs from sparkle was a scandal do some research...at least all the folks i grew up with who knew and loved the movie and aretha always agreed that she shouldnt have done the soundtrack..she basically flexed her "muscles" at the time to do a "hot" soundtrack
@curiouscrutiny Like I said. The album is a classic! The rest is not important at this point in time. Research or revisionism won't change the status it holds among those who love her music, paticularly the two albums she made with Curtis Mayfield.
@curiouscrutiny Actually there was a soundtrack album out with the original singers from the movie. I know someone who had one. But I have searched high and low on internet and have had no luck in coming across the copy. Of course I think it went down payola style. They did the soundtrack with Aretha covering the songs and just crushed out the original. Which is a shame. My mom had Aretha version and one of her friends had orignial. I would love to have the original version with the actors.
Okay they where going to remake this in 2001 with aaliyah that would have been pretty good . I love everyone in the new remake , but I've seen this movie a million times and the casting is way off . Mike Epps ( love him ) as Satin anyone remember how cold and heartless that guy was , I'm not familiar with Carmen Ejogo she is pretty she looks like " Sister" a bit. Tika Sumpter know her from Gossip Girl I can not see her as Dolores , Dolores has a story of being the pushed to the side sister......
Thank you for upload! This was the best soundtrack to a movie i ever heard. Movie was top notch! Havent seen this in ages. Used to have it on vhs but it is now lost in time.
WELL IM 27 I WAS A FAN OF THIS MOVIE SINCE I WAS 5 LOL MY AUNT SAID WHEN I CAME OVER ON THE WEEKENDS SHE PUT IT ON JUS 2 C ME DANCE AND I THOUGHT I WAS SISTA CUZ WE RESEMBLE LOL(=
I too saw this movie for the 1st time yesterday as well....The soundtrack has been a favorite of mine forever.... while I thought the movie as a whole was lame ....They could have given sister a real name please....I was initally disappointed it wasn't Aretha singing but the covers were right on the mark
@indy4tex These aren't covers. Are you serious. Aretha was the one covering. What I think is lame is that these girls weren't on the soundtrack. I think her name was sister because she was the oldest. And the reason why they name Sister boyfriend Satan was because well he was Satan. He was evil.
I REMEMBER I LEARNED THE DANCE TO THIS SONG AND WAS DOING IT ONE DAY IN FRONT OF THE TV WHEN I TURNED AROUND TO SEE MY MOM STARING AT ME WITH A " WHAT IN THE WORLD I KNOW U AINT TRYNNA DO THAT DANCE" LOOK
If I was that beautiful, that blackass ugly nigga couldn't even be in the same with me. I wouldn't never let a man of any kind hit me and mess up my face, I would have put a bullet in his ass so fast!! I hate men that beat women, they are such pussies that they think that it makes them more of a man to beat a woman. Hit a man mother-fucker and see how that works out!!!!
THAT BITCH IS SMOKIN, SHE SHOULD HAVE WON AN OCSAR,NO WOMENS LOVE SONG COULD TOUCH THIS ONE BACK IN DA DAY, AND MAYBE EVEN TODAY , TELL ME WHAT WOMEN CANT TOUCH THE FIRE IN HOW SHE SINGS THIS SONG...........THEY SO JEALOUS OF US.....
I LOVE THIS SONG AND THIS MOVIE!! IT WAS THE FIRST VHS MY MOM GOT ME!!!! AND I STILL HAVE IT 2 THIS DAY,AND THE DVD,AS WELL AS THE SOUND TRACK!!!! IF THEY MESS UP THE REMAKE OF THIS MOVIE I WILL STOP GOING 2 THE MOVIES 4EVER!!!!
IF SPARKLE gets re-made it should 1) star lesser knowns like the original..give some talented kids a chance! 2) Irene Cara or Lonette McKee NEED to play the mother!!
i think Paula Patton or Alicia keys either one would make lead but i would pick paula Patton over Alicia only because her acting is better but i think Alicia would fit the sista part more in the looks department more than Paula!
My Favorite Movie in the WHOLE WIDE WORLD it makes me smile cause this was me and my mother favorite movie and i watch all the time helps me keep my mother memory alive cause everytime i watch it i picture us watching it together
Whitney in remake!?! Oh, no...bring back Vonette Mckee to play the momma...she killed as "Sister" in original...this is the best staged hot girl number in cinema!
I've never seen Sparkle. So I'm guessing this movie is targeting those born sometime after 1980. I'm sure some of my peers have seen Sparkle, but I'm betting most have just heard about it but never seen it.
Whitney's remakes are usually on point. I bet this will do really well.
Omgosh I love this movie! Nothing will compare to how great ther songs were how beautiful and fine the main characters were and the times back then! I hope they (hollywood) dont screw it up!
I cant stand that black ass nigga with that perm thinking he tough just cuz he slap around women. That ol low down dirty burnt crispy rat faced crack sniffing bastard. Love this movie!!
I'm agreeing that Sparkle is one film that's perfect just the way it is. Lonette McKee is amazing as sister, Irene Cara irreplaceable as Sparkle, Mary Alice as the mom ,and let's not forget the Aretha Franklin Soundtrack. Sparkle is definitely one of my favorite movies. The best thing a remake can do is introduce a new audience to the original '76 version of the film.
I personally wish they wouldn't recreate the original, but do a contemporary version of it. But, I'm sure it'll be a great film with Jordin and (hopefully) Whitney,
beyonce would put to much into the damn song with all her runs and riffs. dont get me wrong i love me some beyonce but she needs to stick with etta...i DEF. agree alicia keys would be perfect because she has a strong but simple voice
@a999op They were much better actors than singers. Simple, one could have lip synced Arethas lead vocals and the others the background vocals. Honestly, Lonette and the girls come up very short with their version of the Sparkle soundtrack.
@luvureally Aretha is awesome but if they lip synched. This movie would of been terrible. It wouldn't have been real. I would have been fake and disgusting. Plus Lonette don't look like she can sound like Aretha. It would have been laughable. It doesn't matter if Aretha can sing better to me. If you can sing, sing

If you can sing, sing I think they can sing not as good as Aretha but lip synch. That should be consider a sin

sparkels dont need to be remade they need to leave that classic alone period because beyonce couldnt hold a candle to sista role the movie is fine the way it is
Just watched this again last night on Netflix. However, there is nothing like seeing THIS scene on the big movie screen. Lonette McKee as "sister" Fuckin' killed it! I couldn't take my eyes off her. Still cant! She owns this scene -- and this role. LOVE HER
They were about to do a remake of this movie with Whitney Houston as the executive producer and Aaliyah cast as Sparkle, but Aaliyah died and it was put on hold. They made another attempt by casting Ashanti as Sparkle, but things didn't work out.
Personally I do not think the movie should be remade. Why mess with perfection! I had always wished they had releasted an original cast recording from the movie. Aretha is a great performer but it is just not the same.
You can't remake a classic. The music was OFF THE CHAIN! The studio should have released the album with the original music from the movie. Instead, they goofed and got Aretha Franklin who sucked.
Sistah is BEA-U-TI-FUL wish Aaliyah was still alive because she should have done this movie she would shit on Alicia Keys face and she has the body type for the part to
Whoever plays Sparkle should be anyone but Beyonce. She's doesn't have the skills to play that role. I'm sure Alicia could do a great job and so could Paula Patton. I'm just hope they pick a young beautiful, talented, unknown songstress to play Sparkle. They need to make it just as powerful as the original.
They need to look for new Raw talent non of the Women in the industry maybe they dont need to do a remake..
An Just bring This back to the Big Screen An Alow theese young people to see it for the first time....My Favorite movie of all times My Momma introduced me to it..
@sierria64 Or a cat who'll punch his date in the stomach backstage, take the mink off her shoulders and tell his boy "show Miss Tina to her taxi," then go check for Sister. Lolol
Favorite Movie ever!!! NO REMAKES!

I personally wish they wouldn't recreate the original, but do a contemporary version of it. But, I'm sure it'll be a great film with Jordin and (hopefully) Whitney,
Mike, and the rest.

There aren't any actresses or singers today who could do justice to this movie. I would hate to see a remake.

beyonce would put to much into the damn song with all her runs and riffs. dont get me wrong i love me some beyonce but she needs to stick with etta...i DEF. agree alicia keys would be perfect because she has a strong but simple voice

@luvureally lip sing to Aretha? What since does that make. If you can sing. sing. And how can all of them have the same voice.
a999op 2 months ago
@a999op They were much better actors than singers. Simple, one could have lip synced Arethas lead vocals and the others the background vocals. Honestly, Lonette and the girls come up very short with their version of the Sparkle soundtrack.

@luvureally Aretha is awesome but if they lip synched. This movie would of been terrible. It wouldn't have been real. I would have been fake and disgusting. Plus Lonette don't look like she can sound like Aretha. It would have been laughable. It doesn't matter if Aretha can sing better to me. If you can sing, sing

They were about to do a remake of this movie with Whitney Houston as the executive producer and Aaliyah cast as Sparkle, but Aaliyah died and it was put on hold. They made another attempt by casting Ashanti as Sparkle, but things didn't work out.

Personally I do not think the movie should be remade. Why mess with perfection! I had always wished they had releasted an original cast recording from the movie. Aretha is a great performer but it is just not the same.

You can't remake a classic. The music was OFF THE CHAIN! The studio should have released the album with the original music from the movie. Instead, they goofed and got Aretha Franklin who sucked.

Whoever plays Sparkle should be anyone but Beyonce. She's doesn't have the skills to play that role. I'm sure Alicia could do a great job and so could Paula Patton. I'm just hope they pick a young beautiful, talented, unknown songstress to play Sparkle. They need to make it just as powerful as the original.
