Mamma Mia, the Movie to be re-released over Labor Day as a sing-a-long
http://www.imdb.com/news/ni0553972/


ABBA Sing-Along To Highlight Labor Day Screenings20 August 2008 10:39 AM, PDT | From Studio Briefing | See recent Studio Briefing news


Universal may entice fans of the hit musical Mamma Mia! to return to the theaters over Labor Day by presenting a "Sing-Along Edition" in select theaters, complete with the lyrics to all of the songs appearing at the bottom of the screen. The film, which has grossed about $117 million is already set to become the fourth-biggest musical ticket seller of all time by the weekend, behind Grease, Chicago and The Sound of Music.

1. The gay members of my church tell me this is going to be the next big cult movie.
They keep comparing it to Rocky Horror. I don't see it, myself. I still want my money back from the first time I saw it, at 7 pm. I can't imagine bothering to go see it at Midnight. Or any other time.

7. Rocky Horror was my first thought.
We didn't need no stinkin' onscreen lyrics! :P

The de-evolution of American popular culture from the '70s to today, in a nutshell:

Rocky Horror --> Mamma Mia!

Warning: Mamma Mia! contains no Susan Sarandon.

Let's do the Time Warp again!

2. The only way I'd go and see that movie is
If they stick a guy and two robots in the front row to make fun of it.

3. I'm in the same mindset...
So that's the breaking news of the day- A GAY man doesn't want to go see Mama Mia! Discuss.

5. What I learned this summer: Pierce Brosnan can't sing.
Sing along is good. Hopefully the audience will drown out ol' Remington Bond.
