Contemplating Hairspray

so orignally i was against this film Go Here but now I'm not as sure first off from a fincal aspect everyone in baltimore really should understand this. In supporting this film you are supporting films that take place in Baltimore being filmed in other cities. Taking money away from the Baltimore economy. The worst part is there are a ton of Baltimore film makers that really need jobs and this film would help them out alot. Heck i was considering going to pa for the shot and call them up and do it. Instead it was in toronto. Which is really shittie.
But there is some reasons to see this film. First off this is a mainstream movie remake of a John Waters movie that is crazy. I really wanna see for that reason and that reason alone. But it is kinda one of the most mainstream John Waters movies. I can't imagine John Travolta would be in a pink flamingoes remake. My 14 year old self would flip the fuck out over this film. Partly for selling out but i would want to see it.
I think they did a crazy job of promoting it with so many stars they can have one star go on a talk show everyday for the week before and most of the week after the release which is great way to make buzz. Also is has tons of stars for young girls and old people and basically every demo. It's every studios dream. But maybe it will flop cause as much as i love mars attacks movies which a huge cast often don't do all that well.
To Finish off If you see this you'll actually probably end up helping John Waters make another movie. Making a hit have something to do with him. (Also congrats to new line for sticking with him since pink flamingoes to now) But it will hurt Baltimore I'm actually being serious if a stuido sees hey fuck filming there man the hairspray movie worked. so if you really really wanna support it will help John Waters which in turns mean he can make more movies in Baltimore but other people won't. That's really the truth of the matter if you wanna go that guy doesn't know what he's talking about fine but remember how many cgi movies have come out since Toy Story did well think about it.
