“…we danced on the beach, kissed on the beach, and DOT DOT DOT!”
.
That’s my favourite opening line from Mama Mia the Movie. If you have not watched it, view the trailer here. If you have watched it and would like to grab hold of the song lyrics, go here.
.
For those of you who’ve watched the movie, did you know that the 2 original members of the ABBA band made cameo apperances in the movie? Benny was the piano player on the pier in the DANCING QUEEN song and Björn was one of the Greek gods floating on the clouds in the WATERLOO song at the end credits.
.
As you folks know from here, I’ve watched it last week. Second time round was this week and it was extra special in a fun-weird sorta way.
- Fun - We brought someone with us on our Friday nite out.
- Weird - It felt somewhat like a chaperoned movie date. Hehe…
Being an avid ABBA fan, Sweetheart’s mom was keen to watch the movie. We decided to bring her to the movies with us to watch it on the big screen. Her excited words to me as we headed into the cinema -“It’s been soooo long since I went to the movies that I don’t even remember when!”
.
I was kinda surprised to find Sweetheart throwing back his head to laugh a couple of times, and occasionally, even louder than the aunties sitting around us! Guess he enjoyed it too. Heh, who wouldn’t with great songs like these, huh???
.
So, yeah we had fun @ dinner (mostly it was his mom getting to know me better), we had fun @ the movie and after sending his mom home, we had fun DOT DOT DOT! 
I went to watch this movie in the cinema too…kinda of bring back memories to me. Used to sing those songs during my earlier years…even have their posters too
Nice to know you had fun watching it too.
Have you watched the Singapore movie: Money No Enough II?
You would laugh,cry and …
Not yet wor. Am planning to drive up to Batu F’ghi one weekend and stock up on my DVDs. This movie is on my to-buy-DVD list. Tks for the recommendation.
I didn’t really enjoy the last Singaporean film (Ah Long Pte) I watched. Hopefully, this one is better…?
Subjectively better!… belum try belum tahu mah… once tried = laugh, cry and shriek… from start to end like what to expect in psycho ward…hahahah
