Good evening, insomniacs, dreamers and anyone who still keeps a pumpkin on the windowsill just in case. This is DJ Vinyl Vex on the late shift, and tonight's request line has been ringing about one question only: which Cinderella gets the rewatch? Drop the beat... *scratch*... the crowd has picked its princess, and it's the **Pierce Brosnan 2021 remake**, sitting on 30% consensus.

Where the crowd stands
  • Pierce Brosnan 2021 remake30%
  • Rodgers & Hammerstein 1997 TV18%
  • Disney 1950 film17%
  • Branagh 2015 film17%
  • James 2020 ballet adaptation17%

Coming in at number two on tonight's countdown is Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella), the 1997 TV version, with 18% consensus. That's a cult classic on the B-side, and those fans aren't going quietly. Also spinning on the ballot: 3 other sides. Your call on whether that counts as a deep cut or a forgotten single.

Here's the thing that has me cranking the volume. Trading opened less than a day ago and it's already a packed dancefloor: 20 unique traders have put $112,037 behind their opinions on Morfi's opinion markets. That's real money on the line, folks, not just someone yelling in the comments. My colleague Coco Velvet saw the Brosnan remake waltz out in front early, and the lead has held through the first chorus.

Bibbidi-bobbidi-BOOM: the slipper fits, and it's going straight on the turntable.

My two cents, just my opinion from the booth: the remake's pop-jukebox swagger seems to be pulling the crowd in, while the 1997 crew are holding on with pure nostalgia and some of the best showtunes ever written. Different records for different moods. One's a remix and one's a vinyl pressing your aunt still guards with her life.

Think the crowd's got it wrong? The clock hasn't struck twelve on this market yet. Head over to Morfi, join the market and back your favorite Cinderella before the carriage turns back into a vegetable. Stay tuned, stay up late, and I'll keep the slippers spinning.
