What Skewicide Blonde said.

I see a lawsuit in this flick's future.

I have some thoughts on the thin line between stripping and burlesque but I think I'd start some awful kind of flame war if I aired them in their entirety, so I'll refrain.

And this movie was terrible when it's about strippers. I guess the fact that they're "burlesque" this time classes it up a touch, in theory. Obviously the dancers played by Kristen Bell and Christina Aguilera aren't the kind of trashy hos who wouldn't know how to pronounce "Versace".

Ok, maybe a tiny bit of those thoughts leaked out.

*cleaning off shoes*
You could've at least stepped into the corner, Skitz.
Why is this eating through the leather?

Cher, Kristen Bell and Christina Aguilara- I am so there! It can have the worst dialogue, no plot whatsoever, but if Cher and Christina sing together-my inner gay man will pass out from the joy.

High heels, lingerie, and singing - WHOOOO! I think I just got a head rush! While I don't understand why anyone would think Christina could replace Kristen, I still want to see this. I mean, singing-wise, okay she probably has a better voice. But, looks-wise, I thought the prettier and younger ones always replaced the old hags. Sorry, Christina, when you spackle that much make-up on, it makes you look old.

Look, let's just get this out in the open, if I don't see some hot, wet Bell/Arugula action complete with a natural vs. augmented titty death match, I am going to burn the Hollywood to the ground. You have been forewarned Hollywood, don't whine when you force me to burn the puppies too.

How do they figure out how the country hick stripper got those giant fake boobs?

But if the Bell strips, I'm there. Even if she doesn't get naked.

I've crushed on Aguilera for years now, but I doubt I'll bother watching this. There won't be any nudity, and I'll be sad.

Skewicide Blonde has nailed it--it's Showgirls Redux, minus the NC-13 rating. Even if this movie _does_ go all Showgirl-y on its viewers, it should be illegal. Nobody should be forced to see Christina Aguilera's misshapen fake boobs just for a chance to see Kristin Bell's (maybe they could put those black bars across Christina's?).

NC-13 ratings would be AWESOME. Minnie Mouse having a train pulled on her; Pikachu shooting heroin into his eyeballs; Barney sucking off, I dunno, whatever that other dinosaur's name was, for crack money.

Actually the film this mostly rips off is 2008's "Make It Happen" starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead. It sounds identical, right down to the burlesque. The film wasn't too bad, as far as dance movies go, but the Weinsteins chopped it to bits and dumped it on DVD in the states (it got a theatrical release in OZ for some reason).

Kristen Bell? As a stripper?

Would you look at that; it's already bunk o'clock.

I am oddly excited about this production. Consider their previous work:

Kristen Bell goes S & M nympho in the musical remake of Reefer Madness. Oh, Mary Sunshine, you bad, bad, lucious, scary, bad girl.

Nobody straddles an upthrust 16" cannon like Le Cher. Stripper poles are for amateurs.

And Christina Agulera's best work is any Shakira video.

Done right, this piece could be camp-tastic. I'm pulling for them. Or something.
