I think hairspray will be worse then the original. I saw the original movie, and it was hilarious, and I loved it. Recently I saw that this one was coming out and it seems like their making a huge joke of it? Like the actors or over dramatic...(the plumper mom/daughter..they just don't seem to fit the original and how it should be) I dont know it just doesnt seem like it will be good, or it will just be a big joke.


Have you seen the original, and are you planning on seeing Hairspray?

I havent seen the original, though I do love musicals. Hairspray has had a successful Broadway run and I'm sure the movie will be alright. I plan on seeing the show (the play) this season and am looking forward to it.

as for the fact that it may be a dousched up version of the original, the original creator played a big hand in adapting it into a musical. This obviously doesnt necessarily make it good, but I'm glad he's up for the idea.

ive seen the original i loved it.
i want to see the new one only to see john travolta play a girl.

Amanda Bynes will be the only reason I would watch it, she's funny.

I really don't see how John Travolta can play Divine. It really doesn't make any sense to me. The Exec's made a huge mistake allowing him to be cast, in my opinion. Billy Bob Thornton, if he wanted to play it, would be perfect. I think Hairspray was one of Waters' worst films (but better than Cry Baby). The whole advertising of this film revolves around Travolta as a woman in a fatsuit. If it were Judge Reinhold in a fatsuit, ET would ignore it.

I'm excited for it. But, at the same time, all I do as of late is see movies. Pretty much everyday. I hate Houston.

(Explicatory side note: I go to College at UT in Austin and haven't lived at home since High School. But, apparently, my parents missed me.)

... ...what?

(but better than Cry Baby).
guess now is a bad time to tell you Cry Baby is currently on its way to Broadway

Amanda Bynes will be the only reason I would watch it, she's funny.

i'm excited to hear her sing. apparently she has a good voice... and ya, she's hilarious. i saw hairspray on tour in kansas city last year and it was amazing! definitely looking forward to this one... :D

(but better than Cry Baby)

:O
i love that film
:O

I havent seen the original yet.

Maybe the video store has it for rent.

i think it will look good

i haven't seen te first one but I want to see the new one for multiple reasons
1. All the actors/actresses making fools of themselves with the diff hair
2.it has some really popular people in it Queen Latifa, Amanda Bynes etc
3. to see John Travolta playing a girl even though he's old he's hot
; p yummy
