out of curiosity-- did you see the old hairspray? the john waters one? i havent seen the new one, but i was in love with the old one. i wondered how they compared...
Kathy ended up being much more then anticipated, the people I spoke with were bitches, and she's not THAT funny. except when she tries to pose with Hilary Clinton.
And no, I haven't seen the 88 Hairspray. I have to assume it's different because the new one is an adaptation of an adaptation. SEE IT ANYWAY.
ah! eeh, too bad about kathy. obviously not *quite* a D-Lister i guess.
you need to rent John Water's Hairspray!!!! It stars Ricky Lake and Divine and... its directed by John Waters. Duh. its a no-brainer! im sure if you love the new one you wont like the old one as much... but it was one of my favorite films throughout high school... its so campy!!
im sure ill end up seeing the new one. i really DETEST that john travolta is in it, playing Divine's character... ugh. i really hate him in general, plus i loved that character so much in the first, one im sure he butchers it. but of course you're right-- its totally going to be completely different... like Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. my fear with that is that so many hated the new one because it WASNT the old one... i hope that the reverse isnt true for Hairspray... when watched in the right light, john waters films are amazing. hairspray being one of the best.
i promise to see the new one if you promise to see the old one.
