Yeah I've seen the original Hairspray, I like it a lot actually, my sister and I watch it whenever it comes on TV, so were going to make it a point to see the new Hairspray when it comes out. I'll probably give my thoughts and compare it when I go see it.

"Squish, Squash, kill that roach!" <----Favorite Song from the 1988 Hairspray.

Zac kisses like he's gasping for air like a fish out of water or something.

I agree... You know, I've always remarked to people that in Hairspray, Amber's taste in songs was better than Tracy's. Although I often forget what songs Tracy ever chose on the show, Amber's "The Roach" and "Shake a Tail Feather" were superior to Tracy's "The Bug," and... didn't she pick "Duke of Earl"? I always found that one to be overrated, myself.

Amber does have a better taste in songs, I mean c'mon now, Tracy dancing to song about killing bugs? But thats why I love it lol "The Roach" is much more upbeat then "The Bug" I think, and then she comes out in that hilarious roach dress haha, I actually don't remember the Duke of Earl. But yeah I think Amber's songs are more serious and the best for the compition, but Tracy's are funny lol.
Another song I like is the gong gong im blue song haha.

Anywho, I got to see the movie last night in an advanced screening, and I must say, it was a lot of fun! Me, being the musical whore that I am, was gonna see this no matter what. Before I saw it, I was kinda iffy about it, but now that I've seen it, I can say it went above and beyond my expectations. I'm sure the rest of you will enjoy it!!

xxhplinkxx I got to see the priemere too!
And I got to go to the after party too, and i met zac efron haha

I also was suprised, it was much better then i suspected.

Yeah, I can't decide which is my favorite song, "Shake a Tail Feather" or "I'm Blue." The "Duke of Earl" was, I think, during the scene where Penny runs to Tracy's house to make Edna and the father watch Tracy's first appearence on Corny Collins.

Awesome! But no celebrities at mine, just watching it at a normal theatre.

I havent seen the original in SOOOOO long, I was probably eight years old the last time I saw it. I really wanna watch it again. I keep holding off of buying it cause I feel there might be a special edition coming or something. I'll hold off for a while longer.

And I cant wait to buy the soundtrack!

P.S. Michelle Pfeiffer rocked my pants! John Travolta and Chris Walken were also great! This movie had me laughing all the way through.

I've seen parts of the original, and it was just weird for me. Before seeing it, I had heard a few songs from the broadway version (I think) like Without Love, You Can't Stop The Beat (which I LOVE), It Takes Two. I hope this new version has those songs, and makes more sense

Yup, they're all in there!

Does anyone else think that Zac wiped that kiss off? Did he do that for Vanessa?! I've heard rumors that 'Zanessa' is a real thing, and maybe this clip proves it.

He seemed totally awkward too, and Nikki was all into it.

Ha yeah agreed Escapay. Man, it sux that neither Zac nor you, Skyler888, are gay. Man if you both were, I'd show you guys how to throw an after party.

I was waiting for someone to say that. Anyway, that's what makes it great. Because John Waters is a twisted, imaginative, and original filmmaker. He also sees himself as something of a cinematic trash-master. So when I heard they were making a musical out of it, I was not happy. I still think he got screwed. I hope those jerks are paying him for every single show that thing puts on. They need to know that without him, this whole phenomenon wouldn't be happening. Not that I think that means anyone should be forced to endure an episode of 'Til Death Do Us Part... but, I feel like this new Hairspray is just another way of stealing something from the creator and changing it into something more mainstream because the people with the money to do it want to make it into something they can approve of.

Amazon's "Hairspray" soundtrack page has a video of "Ladies' Choice"...it was cool to see a clip from the movie, but the song wasn't as good as some of the other ones I've heard. Still extremely catchy and fun, though!
