Hey,

Trailers for the ABBA super musical Mamma Mia!

http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809902249/video/7019352

I have to admit I'm kind of torn on this one. On the one hand ABBA is awesome(but don't tell anyone I said so, it's a secret) but this looks like it was made for women entering menopause. I haven't had this much cognitive dissonance since I voted for Hillary (for nefarious purposes I assure you).

Anyway, urge to see rising.  I'll probably sneak away in the dead of the night, telling everyone I know I've gone to wrestle bears in the wilderness, while I, full of shame with a low head, treat myself to this guilty pleasure.

While on the subject of ABBA, how goddamn weird is this?

That doesn't look particularly interesting to me and I'm old, female AND Swedish...

Muriel's Wedding was good though. I recommend that one.

MAMMA MIA! is also a musical, which they haven't pointed out yet.

It looks like a fun, well-designed riot. Meryl looks like she's having a blast.

I can't wait!
