It's cool. I think some of you are overthinking it. I mean this show has always been run by a group of gay men. This sequel looks like Sex and the City by way of the Road to _____ movies of the 30s. I would expect it to be big and brassy like this song.

I made a video for it because I clearly have way too much time on my hands...

twinbelters, I am not overthinking it and it doesn't matter to me who has run the tv show in the past, I am just not crazy about it but hope it works better in the film. I do, however, like the musical arrangement.

I look forward to the film but Liza needs to stop wearing the sparkly shirt with the knee boots that don't match. She's worn that outfit to death and it's not flattering.

PS-How could Anthony and Stanford afford Liza Minnelli at their wedding? Does Stanford even work?

"PS-How could Anthony and Stanford afford Liza Minnelli at their wedding? Does Stanford even work?"

...I was wondering that but didn't want someone to claim over-analysis.

Likewise, when did they really get together? I haven't watched it in ages, but didn't they hate each other in the series? I remember they made out once in the first movie on New Year's Eve, but... was that the only precedent?

They gave each other a New years peck in the last movie-thats the extent of their relationship. Oh, and they were sitting next to each other during the final scene with everyone having breakfast.

Unless they come up with some great reason for them being together, it will seem like jumping the shark and pandering to the gay demographic because in the series Anthony was repulsed by Stanford and didn't he drop a dime on Stanford's boyfriend being an escort?

Okay, that's what I thought. Then yeah, this is pretty stupid. It basically reads like they have two gay characters popular with the fans so they figured hell, we might as well shove 'em together.

Saw it last night at the premiere, but yeah, they don't really make much of an effort to explain why they're together -- and they kind of offensively play up the gays-can't-do-monogamy stigma by having Anthony walk around the wedding telling people Stanford's letting him cheat.

For what it's worth, lots of Broadway folk: Norm Lewis, Kelli O'Hara, Kyle Dean Massey...

This is so SAD!!

What about Marcus? Did he and Stanford break up in the last movie and I forgot?

Contemplating this sequel is making me think about all the dumb things in the movie that I didn't really think too hard about.

Remember how Miranda told John James Preston "you're crazy to want to get married" or whatever and that turned him into such a pansy that he sat outside the church whining about making sure it was still "just us"? Or having Steve cheat on Miranda? Or having that hour in the middle where Sarah J just looked awful in every scene?

I saw a screening of the movie a few weeks ago, and this scene, in the beginning, was ridiculous but funny. It was way too long though. After that, the movie went downhill verrry quickly. It was one of the worst pieces of trash I have ever seen. My friends and I were horrified every minute. Save your money and watch the Liza clip, it's all you need.

One of the most horrible things I've ever heard in my life. I like Liza but this is dreadful.

[DAME]

Yes. Horrible "piece of trash" movie . The Liza bit was cute in the movie. But it did go on. It pretty much went downhill from there. The person who said it was a "gay Ishtar" was right on.

Did anyone notice Kyle Dean Massey in the choir at the wedding and Matthew Risch standing on one of the white bridges?
