21 of the best musical movie moments of the 21st century, so far

The Barden Bellas proved they were absolutely aca-mazing!

Raise your hand if you’re still waiting for the Freaky Friday sequel in which Pink Slip reunites.

“Let It Go” is one of Disney’s most popular songs and one of the most hated songs by parents of children under the age of seven.

Jack Black for educator of the century!

Not every musical has worthwhile moments, but from start to finish, Moulin Rouge! sets the bar.

As if Hamilton wasn’t enough, Lin-Manuel Miranda turned around and provided Disney with a dose of water-filled magic for Moana with "How Far I'll Go."

Juno and Paulie's cover of The Moldy Peaches’ “Anyone Else but You” at the end of this 2007 flick will forever hit fans in the feels.

Ken walked into a movie titled Barbie and stole the spotlight with one declaration in song.

PEACHES, PEACHES, PEACHES, PEACHES, PEACHES!

The debate about Die Hard being a Christmas movie is over and done. Now it’s time to start debating whether Mean Girls is a Christmas movie based solely on their “Jingle Bell Rocks” performance.

Disney movies from their Renaissance era are hard to beat, as a lot of their live-action counterparts have proven. However, Halle Bailey didn’t come to play when she swam into the role of Ariel and masterfully delivered the vocal goodness with The Little Mermaid classic, "Part of Your World." 

Tangled helped usher in a whole new era for Disney, and it’s in part to “I See the Light.”

Years before Zac Efron bulked up for The Iron Claw, he was a stressed-out high school student having a breakdown on a resort golf course. Remarkable.

Not just a great musical moment in movies but also one of the best openings in film history.

Disney went back to traditions with The Princess and the Frog in 2009, which included giving their characters grand musical numbers. While they didn’t stick with it moving forward, fans are grateful for this modern-day throwback.

If Michael Cera and the rest of Sex Bob-Omb ever want to go on tour, many will be ready and willing to shell out money for tickets. Just saying…

Josie and the Pūssycats was not appreciated when it dropped in 2001 but has rightfully gained the following it’s always deserved since then.

Shrek and Donkey’s confused facial expressions after witnessing that warm yet weird welcome is one of the best scenes in the entire Shrek franchise.

Could Jennifer Garner still bust out those “Thriller” moves all these years later? Fans sure hope so!

The use of music throughout the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise has always been one of the best aspects, and it all started with Chris Pratt dancing to Redbone's "Come and Get Your Love."

Kudos to Amy Adams for truly embodying what it means to be a fairy tale princess come to life and for owning every second of “That’s How You Know.”
