Earlier I bitched that the movie version of "Mama Mia" was all wrong. Now I still think a movie version of the play should of reunited the stars and director of the movie "Grease" however putting that aside for a moment I have news to report about the movie "Mama Mia".
Over at http://www.aintitcool.com/ they have 2 reviews of the movie and they were both positive. Well that's great. I do love musicals. I was a huge fan of "Evita" (the music it least) and I loved "Chicago".
Now Universal Studios has set July 18th for the release date of "Mama Mia". However from what I read (from ain't it cool) the movie is very good there is very little tweaking that needs to be done. The only thing that sounds like that needs to be done is a final music mix of the soundtrack . There is no scheduled re shoots .
I think the reason why Universal was releasing "MM" on July 18th was because New Line Release "Hairspray" on the same weekend in 2007 and the movie went on to major success.
Now Universal has already set there Summer Release schedule but I wouldn't be surprised that "Hell Boy 2" which is schedule for July 11th gets pushed back to late September or early October. This would free up July 11th for "Mama Mia" for Universal. Besides "Mama Mia" has a Summer Vibe. "Hell Boy" well that would be better for October Anyway.
Now don't think I am crazy. Before the remake of "Halloween" started filming I knew that the original release date in October would change. Dimension was afraid of "Saw IV". I was right! The movie was pushed up to August 31st. I do have credibility here!
