Choreography (literally "dance-writing" from the Greek words "χορεία" (circular dance, see chorea) and "γραφή" (writing), also known as "dance composition"), is the art of making structures in which movement occurs. The term composition may also refer to the navigation or connection of these movement structures. The resulting movement structure may also be referred to as the choreography. People who create choreographies are called choreographers. WIKI I believe SuperCr3ws routines were choreographed.

Exactly... The only one with any ability to actually choreograph a routine was Fanny Pack. Such a shame...

Oh come on! Just because you plan the moves you're going to do on stage doesn't mean your choreography is any good!

WoW, you got it all wrong! First off: If you did'nt know, break dancing is choreography especially when everyone's in sync like SuperCrew does it. What are you thinking? The only times SuperCrew didnt add actual dance moves was at the very beginning of the season. Since then theyve been HOT. Status Quo has nothing on SuperCrew. SuperCrew is WAAAAY more smooth, organized, cleaner, and professional. Lets be real. You don't pay attention because So-Real crew has been one of the most consistent crews this whole season. NEVER being voted for elimination mean anything????? Oh and learn the def. of swagger before you say anything about them not having any. And youre wrong, Missy did enjoy their performances, especially SuperCrew's (go back and watch please). If it came down to it, I bet money Missy would pick Super Crew to be in her video over Fanny Pack. You said it yourself, Missy always incorporates the hottest street dances into her videos. Anything street about FannyPack???

I 100% disagree with you... FannyPack has been the only crew to show something unique, at least to my belief. The other two do the same sh** every week and it has gotten old. Missy would pick FannyPack over Super Crew because they have her same mind set when it comes to creativity. So you haven't seen any street out of Fanny Pack, doesn't mean they don't have the ability.

Looks like we are having a little disagreement here in the ABDC2 thread. ;) I was going to post a summary of the show on here.... but it looks like you guys already know what happened. LoL.

Week 8: Blast from the Past Week [*]Aired on August 7, 2008 This week, crews will have two routines relating in some form to the past. Challenge #1: Groove Step Challenge Crews chose 3 of the following 9 songs to use in their master mix, and created a routine using a dance from the 80s. Song ChoicesWord Up by Cameo Now that We've Found Love by Heavy D and the Boyz Ice, Ice Baby by Vanilla IceBust a Move by Young MCLean on Me by Club NouveauEvery Little Step by Bobby BrownHumpty Dance by Digital UndergroundNew Jack Swing by Wreckx n EffectsPoison by Bel Biv Devoe Like the "Dance Craze Challenge" from Season 1, crews were given a physical challenge to complete during their routine. Dance CrewDancePhysical ChallengeSuper Cr3wThe Humpty DancePerform the move with only 4 feet on the floorSoReal CruKid N' PlayCreate a chain reaction during the routineFanny PakVanilla IcePerform the move horizontally Challenge #2: Dance Movie Challenge Crews must create a routine that incorporates elements of an 80s dance movie. Similar to the "Broadway Challenge" from Season 1, crews were given remixed versions of the songs from their respective movies CrewSongMovie SoReal Cru Electro Beats Breakin' Super Cr3w Footloose Footloose Fanny Pak Maniac Flashdance

Spoiler

Bottom 2: Super Crew, Fanny Pak Eliminated: Fanny Pak

[via wikipedia]

Super Cr3w has been my favorite all season as was a certain group that wore white masks last season. So I can only hope that it ends up with a win for them but who knows they do have stiff competition.

No, I don't those SuperCrew ***** were never in sync. How many times did they get called out for looking sloppy? They did more flipping and tumbling than anything. And, if that's choreography Sassx7 had a shot. What dance moves did SuperCrew do? I saw no jookin, isolations, or turfin from them ever. I'll say it and and I'll say it again Status Quo was 10x better than SuperCrew. So-Real was booooooring. Never being voted for elimination means nothing. Especially, when you can rig MTV voting with ease. I know the definition of swag, and So Real has none of it. Missy stood up for who????? It wasn't SuperCrew nope no sir. I bet Missy would pick Fanny Pack. Why because she values creativity something SuperCrew doesn't have. And, again what hot street dances were SuperCrew doing?

You have SuperCrew mixed up because I can barely recall one time the judges said they were sloppy or anything like that. After EVERY performance they're always getting praised. How can you down talk a crew for what they do best? If they break dance, ok so what? That's like saying Fanny Pack can't break dance,so they suck. Every crew has their strength. There's a challenge in every episode and whatever it has been SuperCrew has accomplished it and that's all that matters. You need to start paying more attention. They always have dance moves even though it is their weakness. And what is there to rig when it comes to voting based on a phone call or text message??? Be real. That is NO excuse. So-Real has been at the top for a reason. And please look at Missy's past videos,please. Fanny pack has creativity,yes. But creativity has nothing to do with style.Fanny Pack and Missy's style are totally opposite. Youll most likely find them in a Britney Spears video before Missy's. If you don't get excited or think what SuperCrew does (stunts/tricks) is exciting then your dance knowledge is waaaay off.

They didn't always get praised. JC let them have it more than once. I can talk it down easily when there's no versatility in what they offer. It's America's Best DANCE Crew. Not America's Best Breakdance Crew, and a lot of the breakin they did wasn't WOW worthy. That analogy you tried to use with Fanny Pack sucked. Why? Because they were a versatile crew. They didn't just do the same thing over and over again like SuperCrew. They all accomplished their challenges. It's just some did it better than others. I paid attention SuperCrew sucks super hard. It's beyond easy to rig anything MTV or BET that's voting related, and that's real. Creativity has a lot to do with style. WTF, are you talking right now? Missy is known for her creativity. What she complimented Fanny Pack on was their creativity. She said that meant so much to an artist like herself. So, again wtf are you talking? And, take your homophobic blinders off. If you think stunts and tricks are cool tune your *** into ESPN's cheerleading comepetitions. I came to watch a DANCE crew not a thugged out cheerleading squad doing stunts and tricks.

I just wanted to remind everyone to be friendly!

Once again, for those who never got the mem, breakdancing is dancing. The judges have said it over and over again, but you should know if youve been paying attention like you say you have. Yes FannyPack have been accomplishing all challenges just like SuperCrew. Which means if SuperCrew has no versatility then Fanny Pack doesnt. Unless your some supreme breakdancer, a lot of what SuperCrew does should be exciting. I guarantee you can do anything and everything Fanny Pack performs. And I'll bet every penny you couldnt do half of what SuperCrew does. Like I said if you know anything about Missy and her videos you'd know that SuperCrew would most likely be in her video. In almost all of Missy's videos, she has BBoys or breaking in it! She even dresses like one.

roundables, I know you had been gone for a while but you need to respect other members and their opinions. There are ways to argue a point without insulting the other poster.

Wow this got a little...heated in here. Stacee will protect us though! :P Not every team is perfect every week but I do like Super Cr3w and they bring a different style to the competition than you are use to seeing. Every team does in a way, which is why I like this show it I entertaining to watch. But Super Cr3w is good and I think they can take the title.

One week you're hiding in the basement. The next you're saying she'll protect us. Haha, Which one is it GW? Do we need to hide or no?

It's not the only form of dancing. And, that all we saw from them week after week. All the other crews did breakin and tons of other styles as well. Shane said it not Lil Mama or JC. And, if you were paying attention you would know that. Again your analogy makes no sense. You should have all analogy making rights forever revoked. They both accomplished the task, but someone did that task consistently better (Fanny Pack). Versatility is the ability to do anything. I don't know if SuperCrew can do anything else besides breaking. Why? Because, breakin is the only style they did. Sorry, SuperCrew didn't excite me. A flip here or there in a routine. However, a whole routine as a package rarely got me excited. Glenda in Fanny Pack was doing the same tricks SuperCrew did. And, get ready for it she managed to actually do other styles of dance at the same time. That's something SuperCrew could never manage. I know about Missy and her videos. She's hailed as one of the most CREATIVE video artists out there. She's said more than once that's a trait she thrives on something. A trait FannyPack has and SuperCrew doesn't. If she would want SuperCrew over FannyPack why didn't she give SuperCrew a standing O?

There is a certain level of respect we all have for each other around here and you are pushing your limits, speak your opinion about the show and crews only not other peoples opinions and analogies.

I'm finished arguing with this guy, BOTTOM LINE: They are both great groups but the judges obviously saw something more in SuperCrew to pick them over FannyPack. Whatever the reason may be, SuperCrew is advancing as the better crew. Enough said :-D

That is a good point they were both good teams but obviously Super Cr3w had advanced to the point where they outshined them on that night. FannyPack was a good crew but they are gone now and it's nothing any of us can do about it. I think we have a good final matchup too.

Yeah true that, every crew has their good and bad points and that is why the show is fun to watch. If they all were good at everything, it wouldn't be as interesting.
