I am really hoping this is the last post without Hungary Pics, but I do have to say that I love, love, LOVE this movie!! It is probably one of my top 5 favorite movies of all time. Seriously! I think it helped that I went with some stellar ladies that belted out the tunes along with me and danced with me to all the groovy music. I grew up on Abba. I had the cassettes, and I went through TWO Greatest Hits CDs because I trashed them so much. My sister (and even brothers) had their CDs and so it was great knowing all the words to the songs. But even if you don't, you will run out to get the CD and want to GET to know the music. At the end of the movie, I stood up and had to knock myself back to my senses. For a moment I forgot that I was in Hungary and 28 years old. We saw the movie in English and acted my shoe size during the whole movie. (10 by the way. and I know a few VERY mature ten year-olds BTW.) Anyway, if you haven't seen it, I hope you disregard my post and think it's going to be horrible, so you can be blown away, and if you HAVE seen it, the funniest part was DOT DOT DOT ! Oh kill me now! Sarah Galan, this movie is ten times better than Hair Spray. :) You all need a good girls night ....Good fun, good company, good movie = good combination of an AWESOME girls' night.
I am DYING to see this movie!!! John and I saw this in London (on stage, not movie) two nights before we got married, so it's sentimental to me, and I love the music, and I love the story, and can't wait to see the movie!
ReplyDeleteI am glad you had such a good time. It was great talking to you today =) I miss your guts.
ReplyDeleteMo, I too LOVED this movie. Have already gone twice. Can't wait to buy it...love it!!!! Someday I'll get to hang out with my kindred blog friend...
ReplyDeleteI saw Mamma Mia this past weekend too and I loved it! There were still some things I didn't love casting wise. But it was definitely well done! I loved EVERYTHING about Hairspray though. Monique, I really think you need to watch it again (hairspray that is) with some girlfriends. If you had watched Mamma Mia at home with Brandon it wouldn't have been the same either. Admit it! I was going to do my own review of it, but I have seen so many others that I won't. I did LOVE the girl who played the main girl Sophie. She was on Veronica Mars. Anyway, glad you had fun.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this movie yet, but I am glad to hear you recommend! Girls' nights are the best! And hey, it's fun to act 10!
ReplyDeleteP.S.--that Jake post was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI saw it last night and enjoyed it thoroughly. Who knew you were such an ABBA fan growing up?
ReplyDeleteAlso, I keep forgetting to tell you that our good friends live in Budapest. Have you met Jared and Kelli Salter?
Hummm... I haven't thought too much of the movie (you are WAY older than me, right?) but I think I may have to go and see it after that enthusiastic post.
ReplyDeleteBTW: I can't see the last picture of your crew. Is it just me?
Autumn! We LOVE the Salters! We have had them over for dinner and we have already made plans for them to stay the night in our guest room so we can play games with them some weekend. They play Settlers! :) They are one of the four families with kids in our Branch, so I'm sure we will get to know them VERY well. So fun that you know them.
ReplyDeleteum... perry's comment was actually from me. Just wanted to clarify.
