Hairspray Box Office Tracking Thread — Page 8

SM2, your insistence on dropping in on every Hairspray thread to remind us (like we care?) how much you disliked the movie is as predictable as it is tiresome. Grow up.

Can you not see the larger picture, which is that this movie's success benefits those of us who love musicals? It only ensures that more musicals will get made in the future. This is a GOOD THING.

I can't believe it hasn't opened in Australia yet. This seems like the type of movie that would appeal to their sensibilities. I'm sure it'll do well there.
