here it is! the last indisputably good movie musical*. and i will PROVE IT!
the greatest showman (2017) was too concerned with visuals resulting in bad CGI. hairspray gives us campy yet authentic 1960s!
les miserables (2012) takes itself way too seriously. hairspray features lines like “i want that chubby communist girl off the show!” and has a whole song where tracy imagines her future with Link after two seconds of physical interaction
la la land (2016) has a disappointing ending! hairspray gives us YOU CANT STOP THE BEAT, which is not only the most exuberant piece of music ever composed, but also a GROUP NUMBER!
into the woods (2014) is overstuffed with a weird variety of actors, not including zac efron. hairspray is correctly stuffed with an EXCELLENT variety of actors, INCLUDING zac efron
a star is born (2018): sure it features Shangela, but where is john travolta?
*im not counting mamma mia or its sequel because they transcend the movie musical genre
when yr in middle school you wanna smooch zac efron. when you hit 18 you wanna get with james marsden. and when you’re in your twenties you can’t focus on anything BUT how much of an impression allison janney made with less than three minutes of screen time
racism is over,,,,,,,where are the chapters on tracy turnblad in american history books
my whole experience with this movie is just me screaming at myself "babe this isn't a four star movie ... please ... just listen to what john trevolta did to the word 'pleats'" but then michelle pfeiffer PUTS ON THAT FUCKIN RED DRESS AND I WAKE UP AN HOUR LATER IN AN ALLEY WITH MY SHOES MISSING
sometimes i think the only reason i like this musical is nostalgia factor, and if that's the case i am completely and utterly okay with that
just wanted to remind myself that doing this musical irl without black kids in the cast was probably one of the worst experiences of my theatrical career, but at least i got to play a dude for once
one day after filming another episode of the Corny Collins show, Tracy Turnblad saw a little boy sitting on the sidewalk, he was sad he couldn’t dance on the Corny Collins show. She told the little boy “if we can’t dance, maybe we should march”. That little boy later went on to march on Washington for jobs and freedom. That little boy was MLK 😌😌
Had this on DVD very nostalgic for me looking back, I still kinda like it...BUT WHY IS THE CAST INSANE LIKE HOLY SHIT THIS CAST IS WACK
