I haven’t seen this movie yet (and didn’t even know about it until yesterday) but I’m sure it’s my new favorite movie, second only to Showgirls

This will either be a great success or go down in flames and be a cult hit ( a la Showgirls). Either way i can’t wait to see it! And Ms. Aguilera’s apparent love interest, the bartender guy? Roaurrrr!!! Grrrrrr! and hey, there’s Cher so it can’t be all bad…
I’ve watched the preview about 60 times and I’m getting a Showgirls vibe. I predict the movie will be panned but have a huge opening. I’m sure I’ll see it a dozen times and consider it a work of art, much like I consider Showgirls a work of art. 🙂
It’s hard to tell, with just 2.5 minutes of trailer time. I believe Chers’ legion of fans + Xtina’s devoted fan base will spell box-office success on this unlikely pairing. The reviews may be another story. Sony is trying to make sure this is a winner. Project Runway is on the wagon and an episode is scheduled to create outfits for the movie. There is also a (burlesque?) dance contest with $5k to the winner. The movie is also scheduled to show over a large part of Europe. I doubt they’ll lose money on this one. The soundtrack alone has most people drooling. My bet is that they WILL add a duet with Cher/Xtina as an added incentive. I think it will be fun and more successful for Aguilera then the movies were for Mariah Carey, Jessica Simpson, etc. was on their movie careers. Will go down as a cult classic. Certainly Cher will be the one to benefit most, releasing her album and a second film, The Dropout. Can’t wait!
