I just read this review out loud to some friends by IndustryKiller!	Mar 27th, 2008 01:12:57 AM
Some of whom (inexplicably) actually wanted to see this tripe. Their opinion, naturally, has changed after hearing this bullshit.

They should rename this site to AIN'T IT A PLANT NEWS by Riley Martin	Mar 27th, 2008 01:39:10 AM
And someone at Ain't it a PLANT news HAD to have been paid to put this up. I PROMISE you.
i will say that.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 01:39:39 AM
this movie looks like it's going to suck.. NOT GAY, but just plain suck. Why can't you homophobic asshole just say "suck"?!!!
Hey you homosexual asshole... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 01:50:53 AM
why don't you leave the word "gay" to us happy heterosexuals? You know, glitter and be gay? It USED to mean "really friggin' happy" until homosexual assholes like yourself retconned it. First you take "queer". Then you take "gay". Well, we're having none of it. We geeks have taken it back from you! So deal with it, or go fuck yourself with your mommy's dick.
Oh, it's gay alright. by The_Deathticle	Mar 27th, 2008 01:55:06 AM
Chill out, Bob Oblaw. Just deal with the fact that this shit is super uber gay. Even my two gay friends think it is overly gay, one of them saying, and I quote, "Goddammit that sounds gay."

If this review were any greener by beefywhore	Mar 27th, 2008 01:57:00 AM
we could smoke it....
Very funny.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 01:57:52 AM
i AM a geek, too.. i also happen to be a HOMOSEXUAL.. as in "GAY", (*which we didn't take, it was labeled on us, like the word FAGGOT which means 'a bundle of sticks to burn' as in they used to burn homosexuals.. when something sucks and they say it's gay, it makes me feel like shit and like maybe i shouldn't be here, which is soo fuckin discriminating.. i've held my tongue this long, and i am just FUCKIN SICK OF IT..
What a queer feeling I have. I should remain gay... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 01:58:51 AM
while eating my faggots and peas. After which I will smoke a fag. All of this I will do in order to pay my respects to the Queen. Long Live The Queen!
Just say it 'sucks' by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 01:59:38 AM

Next you'll get pissed if I call you niggardly... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:01:16 AM
Not that I know if you are niggardly or not, as I do not know you well enough for that.
It fellates. by Napoleon Park	Mar 27th, 2008 02:03:33 AM
I love your Law Blog, Bob.
i know what niggardly means.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:05:25 AM
i wouldn't get pissed about that
You know, funny thing about things "sucking"... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:06:03 AM
It used to be a colloquialism for oral sex. You know, as in "sucking dick"? You are familiar with that, aren't you?
Look, i just had to blow off some steam.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:06:06 AM

I am just as sick of the English language being... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:10:52 AM
gutted by various political and social groups as you are sickened by seeing the word "gay" used in a derogatory way. It's called modernity, and it's the inevitable and sometimes unfortunate side effect of having a language that is in constant flux. Looks like we're both screwed. Oh, look. Another word that has changed meaning several times throughout recent history.
Oh wait, I get it. by Napoleon Park	Mar 27th, 2008 02:12:07 AM
She's from a Greek isle and "greek" was the old personals ads code word for "anal", so people think that this is about homosexuality. "Dancing Queen" heh. That's pretty funny. I'm not personally familiar with their body of work but I understand that ABBA was a popular vocal group during the '70s and their music sold quite well. Also, the name is an acrony for the names of the members, two male and two female, who were heterosexual married couples, sort of like a Swedish Fleetwood Mac. Seriously, I agree with Robert, using "teh ghey" as a synonym for "lame" is so South Park. Which, in this context, I am using as a synonym for lame and unfunny.
Alright, alright, i'm outta here.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:12:13 AM
sorry to take it all so goddamn seriously, but it's still an issue to me when close friends of mine are still getting bashed and shit like that.. i'm gonna go huff some cat urine to forget about my idiotic little rant.. peace out, future gays..
But seriously, just for the record... by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:15:20 AM
i HATE abba...
Huff cat urine? You're going to the Huffington Post? by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:15:30 AM
Don't do it man! Harry Knowles Gotta Eat! Well, if you must. But please, be back soon. I have several other words I'd like to get your opinion on before using them in a way that may or may not offend you.
You can't be a homosexual and hate ABBA... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:18:27 AM
They're FABULOUS. And FIERCE. If I hear one more stringy supermodel or flaming homosexual utter the word "Fierce", I may go Postal. Which used to refer to mailing letters, not rampaging through town on a deadly shooting spree. Just thought you'd like to know.
Oh wait, I get it II by Napoleon Park	Mar 27th, 2008 02:19:23 AM
it's about a heterosexual woman who is getting married and wants her father to attend her wedding to a man but doesn't know who he is because her mother was promisciously heterosexual during the seventies, and the film is a musical featuring muusic from the '70s, the time period during which the mother was heterosexually active. Yes, I can see why persons of diminished mental acuity who aren't clear on what the word heterosexual means might thing that this is a story with some sort of homosexual overtones. After all, what could be gayer than a heterosexual male ejaculating his semen randomly into the vagina of a promiscuous heterosexual woman during recreational indiscriminate sexual activity? How unmanly is that?
"The whole movie is baked into the best of ABBA's music." by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:21:06 AM
TF does that mean?
Gay is gay by The_Deathticle	Mar 27th, 2008 02:22:08 AM
Bob, seriously.... When we say this particular movie is "gay," we don't mean gay as in "it sucks." We mean gay as in "gay." Abba = gay. As in "Jesus, that movie sounds gay."
"Every scene takes place in a different location on the island, by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:22:56 AM
with Meryl's villa being the center" So are all the scenes different, or is the villa used for multiple scenes?
"the movie actually makes you feel like you went on a trip by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:24:23 AM
to the Greek Island afterwards" So will I feel like I'm on a Greek Island WHILE I watch the film or AFTER I watch the film? Will I be walking out of the multiplex thinking, "GodDAMN I feel like I'm in Greece. That escalator reminds me of palm trees!"
It means PLANT!!! by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:25:01 AM
And it seems that the reviewer may have been baked, as well. And did you know that "baked" used to mean "cooked in an oven"? Weird, huh?
My God anchorite by IndustryKiller!	Mar 27th, 2008 02:25:22 AM
evern if you're saying this shit ironically, you sound like a fucking idiot. I'm sorry that you don't like the labels that we tag on the subjugated among us, but it is just that, a label and it isn't their fault. And while Bob might be getting a little overworked about the word "gay" I can understand beause there are, at times, a sickening amount of homophobia on this website. Probably because the subject of film is going to attract the requisite ignorant teenagers, but still....
"Keep your eyes out for her." by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:26:07 AM
Ok, I will! Which upcoming remake will she be starring in?
"a cast that you can't help but root for" by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:28:03 AM
I didn't realize this was a game in the NCAA tournament. Is the cast a number 13 seed playing a number 1? Oh that's very exciting. I will be sure to root for this team...I mean this cast!Thank you for your review. It sucked.
I meant to say, "Your review sucked and was gay too" by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 02:28:28 AM

FUCK YOU GUYS by Mezzanine	Mar 27th, 2008 02:30:26 AM
No, not every fucking fanboy wants to see Mama Mia. Fuck that movie and fuck you guys for thinking that we give a shit.
Every scene is a different yummy ingredient... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:32:48 AM
with Meryl's villa being the ooey-gooey center. Then it all gets baked by the best of ABBA's music. And when you watch the film you will feel like you are in Greece. You will cough a lot and by the end of the film your ass will hurt like hell. Upon leaving the theater you will feel strangely disoriented. Mistaking the escalator for a fishing skiff, you sit down and further injure your ass when it hits the gap between the escalator and the floor. Once you stem the flow of blood from your ass, you try to make your way to your car, but everything looks like the Acropolis and you can't remember which ruin you parked behind. Finally, you give up and hail a taxi. You are astounded to find the driver's name is Niko Papadopolous.
i am a homosexual, and i hate abba.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:43:36 AM
and i hate the word 'fierce'... Wow, anchorite.. if you really wanna get fucked in the ass that badly, just ask and i'll come over and rape you just on OZ.. Which used to refer to the magical world created by L. Frank Baum, not rampaging psychotic inmates in prison. Just thought you'd like to know.
Industry Killer, what are you saying? by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:44:27 AM
The subjugated among us? Are homosexuals somehow enslaved? Have they been conquered? And you dare call me an idiot? Ha! Yes, it irks me to an extent that words are transformed over time so that their original meaning is wholly removed, especially when the words are repurposed by social and political groups trying to force political correctness upon the rest of us. That said, the English language and society is what it is, so I have learned to accept these changes. What is ironic is the notion that a word like "gay" that has been claimed by a particular social group and is now far removed from its original meaning cannot be further transformed to suit yet another social group. Homosexuals who are up in arms that the word "gay" may dare be used to connote or denote a level of negativity in something just need to get over themselves. What's fair for the goose is fair for the gander. Like it or not.
i don't give a shit about POSTAL by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:47:23 AM
being a postal worker is a choice... NOT BEING GAY, dipshit..
fuck it, i'm outta here.. by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 02:48:27 AM
say what you want, dipshit anchorite..
I'm right. Search your feelings. You know it to be true... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:50:57 AM
And for the record, I never used the word "gay" to describe this movie or anything else in a negative light. I'm just defending the right of people to do so. Like I said, the word has changed meaning before. Just because it may not be PC to take exclusivity of the word away from homosexuals and share it with geeks doesn't mean it couldn't or shouldn't happen. After all, fair is fair.
Being gay can be a choice, too... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:53:32 AM
Not always, of course. But sometimes. Al Gore, for instance. There's a gay man who chooses to live life as a straight man might. But we all know the truth. And what does being a postal worker have to do with being gay? You lost me there, pal.
You know, dipshit used to mean... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 02:58:16 AM
lush, or alcoholic. It came from dipso or dipsomaniac. Interesting, huh? We can do this all day if you'd like.
"postal" by bob oblaw	Mar 27th, 2008 03:08:25 AM
this was your post a few posts back.. "They're FABULOUS. And FIERCE. If I hear one more stringy supermodel or flaming homosexual utter the word "Fierce", I may go POSTAL. Which used to refer to mailing letters, not rampaging through town on a deadly shooting spree. Just thought you'd like to know." And now, i realize now that i have been arguing with a complete idiot who HAS to have the last word in every argument, all the while trying so hard to sound intellectual.. i now feel REALLY sorry for you, man.. and i feel bad for wasting all this bandwidth.. Heh... this has been funny.. so if you'll excuse me, i'm about to go out and get laid, which i have the sneaking suspicion you haven't been in.. well, ever.. Hah!! say what you want from here on out, dude.. wow, you had me going there for a while..
Damn you Michael Bay by MCMLXXVI	Mar 27th, 2008 03:14:26 AM
Damn you Michael Bay
Uh. Okayyyyyyyy... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 03:17:38 AM
I know I wrote the "postal" post. My point was, what the frig does that have to do with being gay? The answer: nothing. Absolutely nothing. And two more things: 1) I am married, and my wife and I do actually have sex (with each other, can you believe that?). 2) Go have a great time getting laid. Just be sure to play safe.
Why so serious...? by Womb2dooM	Mar 27th, 2008 03:18:04 AM
Name one wall of bigotry that was ever broken down in an Aintitcool TB? Fuck it, you know? Nobody is coming away from this thing any more enlightened. So let's all just agree that being gay is not a choice, just something some people are born with. Like stupidity... or large bottoms. And, just like those 2 biological conditions, gaydom is nothing a little education or surgery can't fix! JUST JOKES!!!!!!!!!
Language Evolves. by DOGSOUP	Mar 27th, 2008 03:22:20 AM
It's true. I hate the word gay to mean suck too but me hating it used that way isn't going to stop it. So let em have gay. I propose since gay originally meant happy and joyous we start again there with the archaic word fain which meant the same thing:Happy,inclined,pleased, let's turn it into a noun and use it to mean homosexual and presto! The Fains have a word that doesn't mean "lame"! Until eventually our new word Fain evolves and we'll start again. We can burn that bridge when we come to it.
There you go trying to enlighten us Womb2dooM by leobloom	Mar 27th, 2008 03:22:59 AM
But you're right, no one comes away from TBs or AICN for that matter any more enlightened. You be right dere brotha.
DAMN IT!!!!! by Womb2dooM	Mar 27th, 2008 03:25:42 AM
I didn't want to enlighten, I was just trying to throw in a cheap shot!!
THIS IS WHY A WOMAN WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT by Greigy Just Wanted To Say	Mar 27th, 2008 03:34:46 AM

Greigy, why? by Womb2dooM	Mar 27th, 2008 03:46:41 AM
You can't just dangle this massive dose of reality check in our faces and not spill! If you have information, I know I nice young lady named Hillary who will be very curious to hear it. Is it a plot? A riddle? Is the answer in this here Talk Back. My God. Nobody move a muscle! You may be standing on the very future of a female president!
Fain? As in fay? As in faygeleh? As in gay? by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 03:47:25 AM
As in homosexual? Bob Oblaw would not approve.
Re: Plant by Mrs. Harry Knowles	Mar 27th, 2008 03:52:37 AM
Is this really the best place for a plant to go all "Mamma Mia"? Plants need to smarten up.
A woman HAS been president! by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 03:53:06 AM
Do you think Hillary didn't have a lot of input into her hubby's presidency? That said, I would rather not have the Clintons back in the White House ever again, thanks very much. Not even for afternoon tea in the Rose Garden.
Mamma Mia seems to be primarily popular among... by tonagan	Mar 27th, 2008 03:59:33 AM
Middle-aged women (at least the two times I saw it on stage). Hopefully I won't now get threatened by middle-aged women. Unless they're MILFs or Cougars, then that's okay.
And I'm torn about this review... by tonagan	Mar 27th, 2008 04:01:42 AM
On one hand, I think "For Christ's sake, could they get a review from someone who's seen the show and/or is a fan of musicals?" Then I think, "Well, an average joe review might be interesting to read." Then I think "Is this a plant like everyone says?" Then I cry myself to sleep.
Oh, the Alien Quadrilogy is on sale at Amazon for $25.99... by tonagan	Mar 27th, 2008 04:03:59 AM
A one-day only sale, so get 'em while supplies last. (And no, I don't get any money from them.)
this whole talkback is gay by Xiphos	Mar 27th, 2008 04:10:41 AM
I give this TB three snaps in a Z formation because this TB has become Tres gay. Anchorite, let's not have anybody named Clinton OR Bush in the White House EVER again. Those two suppossed dynasties should be politicallly redlined.
Yes, let's all listen to tonagan.com! by Womb2dooM	Mar 27th, 2008 04:25:11 AM
Gay or straight. Tango or Cash. One thing everybody can agree on - Amazon.com is a geeerrrr8 place for cheap DVDs! And maybe a nice pair of high heels for that significant other, fellas ;D Amazon.com - it's a jungle of bargains!!
Xiphos, I agree whole-heartedly... No more dynasties! by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 04:31:51 AM
I don't want another Roosevelt, Kennedy, Reagan or any other family member of former presidents running for office. Unless it's a Coolidge. 'Cause that would be cool.
Let's use the term "Liberace" from now on, shall we? by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 04:33:43 AM
As in, "That's so Liberace".
I dunno man by kuryakin	Mar 27th, 2008 05:20:36 AM
All this nonsense about "Gay used to mean happy or giddy" is fucking silly. If I knew that I could go to a bar or club at any time of the day or night and get my cock sucked without having to make small talk or even buy a drink I'd be feeling pretty giddy too. Ah, those wacky gay folks
And how is ABBA gay anyway? by kuryakin	Mar 27th, 2008 05:23:51 AM
Benny and Bjorn are all man. Look at those beards. They were banging these two hot chicks while everyone else was jerking about them; then when the relationships split they made them sing songs about angry break-ups and whatnot Ah, those wacky bearded Swedes
if you know anything about music... by quantize	Mar 27th, 2008 05:30:44 AM
ABBA's music was actually pretty fucking cool...and brilliantly crafted..its a cliche for jerkoffs desperate to establish their credentials with either bad hair metal or some 'earthy' blues rock/indie/goth bullshit to slag ABBA off. What is fucking gay is the 'Broadway'-ising of music like this and musicals Hairspray...Its the ultimate dumbing down of what was actually pretty sophisticated pop culture. and yes i know the ABBA guys were involved in the original
i'm not juvenile or homophobic by Holodigm	Mar 27th, 2008 05:45:25 AM
i just don't like musicals that make the songs sound like they're done by those KidzBop! shits.

Streep can't sing by elab49	Mar 27th, 2008 06:07:22 AM
I've seen Postcards too. Thin and unremarkable. So why is the film even in the US? The main fan base is European. It is an awful story and the only selling point is the music and Abba were never that big over there.
SLUTTY HOE MIA! by BringingSexyBack	Mar 27th, 2008 07:12:28 AM
Next up for Broadway ... Stayin' Alive, a musical about the Iraq War featuring the songs of the Bee Gees. Broadway is bereft of ideas and needs another Cameron Mackintosh / Andrew Lloyd Webber revolution. Although my favorite remains Les Miserables. Great songs.
Is it gay to watch an ABBA musical? by ricarleite	Mar 27th, 2008 07:12:51 AM

BEING GAY IS A CHOICE
Jesus Christ. by mefrog	Mar 27th, 2008 07:28:15 AM
Not every positive review on this site is a plant. I would go with nearly every single reader review is poorly written, but just because something positive about a movie is written, there's no need to yell "plant!" every fucking time.
"one of the things that have made Meryl Streep such an enduring by zacdilone	Mar 27th, 2008 07:33:46 AM
Not a plant. Sure. And by the way, "faggot" did NOT come to mean "homosexual" because they used to burn gay people. That's a myth perpetuated by those who don't feel gay people are persecuted enough. Which they are.
Social Commentary... by Aquatarkusman	Mar 27th, 2008 07:36:45 AM
... is not a strong suit of talkbackers. In any event, being a fan of high camp like ABBA, I don't know that this movie can top the subtle ways in which the Scandinavian supergroup was used in Muriel's Wedding.
The Gay by malcolm_mccallum	Mar 27th, 2008 07:55:37 AM
My problem with the derogatory 'gay' that is thrown around is not that it is a term also applied to homosexuals. My problem is that somehow anything cheerful, positive, and not involving explosions, sociopaths, or blood splatters is somehow unmanly. Somehow enjoying broad range of aesthetics is a negative. The derogatory and dismissive term 'gay' is too often used as a synonym for 'not what a 15 year old child would like' and then people celebrate their ignorance.
I Love ABBA by kevinwillis.net	Mar 27th, 2008 08:01:13 AM
And I'm a rock-ribbed heterosexual Reagan conservative. If Abba is gay (it sorta is) or not, it's still fucking awesome, brilliantly made music, almost 30 years later. Abba rules. The broadway show Mama Mia, not so much, but I'll catch the movie-ized version on DVD.
Mama Mia Would Be Better With Explosions by kevinwillis.net	Mar 27th, 2008 08:02:03 AM
And directed by Michael Bay. You know it's true.
Muriel's Wedding Was Brilliant by kevinwillis.net	Mar 27th, 2008 08:03:19 AM
And the bridal march version of "Dancing Queen" is pitch-perfect. It is the apex of all things wonderful in music. Love that movie.
Abba is OK... by rainbowtrout1265	Mar 27th, 2008 08:22:26 AM
But the annoying Meryl Streep singing Abba songs is not OK. And it is pretty gay.

i have a very very happy and most un-homosexual memory involving whipped cream, chocolate sauce, an 18 year-old co-ed and "dancing queen". Abba ≠ gay now i'm gonna be smilin' all day. Yay abba.
Any prejudices aside, by BizarroJerry	Mar 27th, 2008 08:48:06 AM
I still think we should be able to call musicals "gay". Does using that term in that way really mean "I hate homosexuals"? This plotline just screams that it's will be most loved by middle-aged women. Which was probably the case of the musical, too. I'm not old! I'm having fun and singing and dancing and all those attractive, yet still older, men want me! And my daughter's getting married! I mean, it's not a bad thing, but I'd have to say the readers of this site are not the target demographic.
Roger Whittaker?!?!?!?! by ArcadianDS	Mar 27th, 2008 09:11:43 AM
How the holy hell makes a Roger Whittaker reference in a geeky movie review? Biggest Plant since the 3rd day of Creation.
SO VERY FUNNY by whatever2008	Mar 27th, 2008 09:22:02 AM
FIRST ABBA HAS ALWAYS HAD A HUGE GAY FOLLOWING & SECOND ISN"T ALWAYS THE ONES WHO ARE LIKE "THAT"S SO GAY" AND LOOK THEY"RE READING EVERY REVIEW,TAKING THE TIME TO POST A COMMENT, IT'S REALLY FUNNY...MAKES YOU WONDER IF THEY CAN SEE NARNIA BEING THAT FAR IN THE CLOSET. ANYWAY IT SOUNDS FUN it should be what you want in a summer musical similar to Hairspray..fun, funny,and breezy nothing too heavy and not to be taken too seriously.
IT'S A LITTLE GAY by BringingSexyBack	Mar 27th, 2008 09:29:25 AM
Not as gay as Larry Craig though.

Anchorite's Right... by Deandome	Mar 27th, 2008 10:50:41 AM
It's not anti-gay to bitch about the fact that "the gays" have co-opted words & symbols they have no right to. The biggie to me is RAINBOWS!! My god...a universal symbol representing childhood & innocence, and you turn it into an "I'M GAY!!!!" bumper-sticker (no pun intended, but certainly appreciated!). FUCK YOU!! You give that back to us RIGHT NOW, or I'm gonna start telling my 6 y.o. whenever he asks about those stickers that it means the driver is a child-raping homo who should die. I don't belive that, of course...hell, my gay brother died of AIDS. But I'm serious about this; surrender the rainbow, or face a shitstorm of bile & hatred...not to mention, lotsa keyed cars!!
Well it's an ABBA musical, so expect poop to fall of f anuses by ricarleite	Mar 27th, 2008 11:01:49 AM
Messy movie theater
"I love my dead gay son!" by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 11:55:50 AM
Why did that line just come to me? And yes, rainbows shouldn't automatically equate to "I like to get it on with members of the same sex". What the fuck do rainbows have to do with sex, anyway? Perhaps homosexuals should swap out Rainbows for Unicorns. That would be a problem, because then little girls the world over would be forced to give up their love of unicorns or else be pigeonholed as femulleted oyster-lockers. Replace the rainbow symbol with the butt-plug, or perhaps a portrait of Liberace. Or maybe Richard Simmons. That's it! Put Richard Simmons' fro-wearing face on your Subaru, Volvo, Saab, or VW Bug and give the rainbows back to the Leprechauns! They had it first!
BSB, I also love Les Miserables. It's my favorite... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 11:58:50 AM
musical to see performed live. Although I prefer Phantom of the Opera's music, the staging of Les Miserables is far superior. I saw the original Broadway cast with Colm Wilkinson as Jean Valjean back in the day. What a fantastic show!
And I enjoy ABBA's music. Just for the record... by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 12:04:17 PM
And I am not a homosexual. Hell, I got my degree in Theatre Arts with a concentration in Acting and performed in a bunch of musical theatre productions throughout high school, college and afterward. Some of my best friends still work on Broadway. See there? You can be straight and love musical theatre. It's okay, guys. Come out of the musical theatre closet, will ya? Just try not to fawn all over Bernadette Peters, Sarah Brightman, Linda Eder or Kristen Chenoweth. Or if you're old-school, Judy Garland or Barbra Streisand.
Did anyone watch the Grease casting reality show? by anchorite	Mar 27th, 2008 12:14:06 PM
It was called "You're The One That I Want" and it was a guilty pleasure, I admit. My wife and I watched every episode. I called the winners from the first week. My wife thought I was crazy, but I ended up vindicated. Anyone see the Broadway revival with those cast members? Is it any good?

A fanboy speaks by earlfist	Mar 27th, 2008 01:55:58 PM
I love Indiana, I've seen every X file at least twice, and I will be first in line to see Dark Knight. But, as much as I love these, and many other things, I do not love them AS MUCH AS I FUCKING LOVE ABBA. BJORN AND BENNY ARE THE GREATEST COMPOSERS SINCE MOZ
Speaking of language.... by Mister Man	Mar 27th, 2008 01:59:42 PM

So much ignorance by This_talkback_is_on_CRAZYPILLS	Mar 27th, 2008 02:02:27 PM
and so loudly boasted, too.
in regards to Kristen Chenoweth by Napoleon Park	Mar 27th, 2008 02:38:03 PM
Straight guys and fanboy geeks all fawn and squee with delight over Kristen Chenoweth. Check out any AICN review of "Pushing Daisies". Have you seen the rack on that little minx? And by rack I don't a shelf to place objects upon, I mean her bosom. And by minx I don't mean she's a small rodent like animal, just that she engages in vigorous animalistic sexual intercourse. Presumably. She's a fuck monkey. Not literally.

Funny Chenoweth moment... by BigTuna	Mar 27th, 2008 09:35:32 PM
She was a guest on Letterman, wearing a very revealing dress showing off those amazing cans, and when she asked Dave if she could do her famous Dolly Parton impression, Dave said: " I Thought You Were Doing It Already." What an amazing little body she has.
what was the 3 possible fathers movie by CherryValance	Mar 27th, 2008 10:24:07 PM
the original was French I think with Gerard Depardieu in it, then they remade it? Can't remember. Anyway the plot sounds like a few movies wrapped together. I still think it would be more economically sound for me to just stay home and listen to ABBA Gold. I mean I don't think I've heard Meryl Streep or those guys sing but I hardly think it'll improve on ABBA. It's like those people who go see the Jersey Boys thing. I wouldn't because if I was going to spend the money, I'd go see Frankie Valli. So far it looks like a combination of boredom and no other options is the only way I'm going to MAMMA MIA.
Battlestar Galactica: The Musical by Pouchstalker	Mar 27th, 2008 10:37:32 PM
Featuring the music of Celine Dion!! I'd pay a dollar not tp watch that!
"I love my dead gay son!" by Super Nintendo Chalmers	Mar 27th, 2008 10:39:53 PM
I am not about to join the "gay" discussion, but that line is fucking killer. Thank you, anchorite, for reminding me of it. I love my dead gay son!
Fernando the movie. by TomBodet	Mar 28th, 2008 04:59:44 AM

I actually laughed out loedreading the 1st review by purplepurple	Mar 28th, 2008 08:47:30 AM
Not so much at the reviewer but at the stupidity that seems to be this movie. "The "awe" scene involved the song DANCING QUEEN where a few of the cast start in the hotel with Meryl Streep (she stars in it) singing and ending on the islands dock with the entire population singing, dancing and then jumping into the water." My my the nonsense, I might actually have to see this now. It'd be a hoot
It's like a gay Disney musical... by anchorite	Mar 28th, 2008 10:44:42 AM
With Sebastian the Crab sucking Goofy's dick while Princess Jasmine uses Donald Duck as a strap-on in order to ram Pocahontas in the bung-hole. All the while the rest of the Disney pantheon of characters is singing and dancing like they're in a Busby Berkley musical.
Anchorite=Closet case by This_talkback_is_on_CRAZYPILLS	Mar 28th, 2008 03:40:35 PM
It's obvious from space. Dude has ISSUES. Just accept yourself, son. Start living your own gay life without fear. OK?
