• I want nothing but happiness and good fortune for Queen Latifah. What a pleasant surprise to see her in this. :)
• Bynes’ whole direction for this film was “you’re horny.” Always nice to watch hot people be horny for two hours, even when it’s tinged with “I got da chocolate fever!!” This movie walked so the infamous Drake tweet could run.
• Travolta is just doing a Mike Myers impression this whole time.
• The racial politics of this movie are not at all good, but I couldn’t find it as embarrassing as I would in a Green Book or a The Help, for some reason. Just thought it was funny how off the mark they were! I’m…
some of yall didnt have a thing for corny collins from the corny collins show and it shows
the humans that dont enjoy musicals will be the first to go out in the next wave of natural selection
Hairspray: gets released in 2007
Obama: wins the election in 2008
Coincidence? Probably not
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
tag urself I'm Tracy getting hit in the face with a dodgeball while singing about Zac Efron
every single fucking actor ATE their part this may just be the best ensemble of all time i'm truly in awe
nikki blonsky DELIVERED exactly what she had to do
reasons why corny collins is better than link larkin:
- prioritised integrating the show even though it could turn audiences against him and he could lose his career
- he's a better singer (see: the run he does at the end of 'it's hairspray')
- zac efron is fine but james marsden... 💞
- link is a poor high school student but corny is the host of the show and therefore is rich
and that is my case for a corny collins show spinoff
