Are there any blue tickets with pink polka dots that were given out to singers/musicians that we don't know about that will be admitted first? Is that pass valid?

LOL! Anyone who prints these things out and stands in line for hours after the last fiasco deserves whatever happens to them!
And why, oh why are they ruining this film in it's 3rd week of general release with a "sing along" version? I don't want to hear a bunch of off-key singers at the movies.
At least they waited for decades to do this to "The Sound of Music". It's impossible to find a non-singing theatrical showing of that film anymore so I just watch the DVD. When can we expect the "Hairspray" DVD? I'm not going to go to the movies to see it again if I have to be subjected to the sing along crowd. I thought chattering people and cell phone talkers were bad but this takes the cake. Can't people just watch a film without having to participate in a sing along? OY!!!!

All I can hope is that Newline corrects their mistakes - if you go- have a great time!

I dont think the sing-a-long will replace ALL prints at those select theatres.
Its just to go - and have fun and be silly.
The Hairspray DVD is expected to be out this holiday season.

Anybody have a list of what theatres will show HAIRSPRAY in sing-along?
Please post it so we know which theatres to avoid!

since it says 30+ cities across the country, it's probably safe to assume that there will only be one theatre per city that actually plays the singalong version. in sf, i wouldn't be surprised if it's one of the downtown theatres (century in the mall, or the amc in the metreon). jimnysf, maybe it'll even end up in emeryville, and you won't have to worry at all. :)

Anyone on here going to try and go tonight? It sounds like fun, I wasn't planning on seeing Hairspray again in the theatre but I do like singalongs, and free, but after hearing everyone's stories about the last Hairspray screening I don't know that I wanna chance it only to be told that this myspace pass is invalid or something...
Maybe I'll see if I can get one of those special blue tickets with pink polka dots that millie mentioned upthread. :)
