Mamma Mia! (2008)

👰‍♀️🏝️🎶

Based on the smash hit Broadway stage musical, this jukebox musical film tells the story of a young bride-to-be who, in the hopes of finding her father, invites three men from her mother’s carefree past to attend her wedding.

An extraordinary ensemble cast includes: Meryl Streep as single mother/hotel owner/former lead singer Donna Sheridan, Amanda Seyfried as sunny soon-to-be-wed Sophie Sheridan, Pierce Brosnan as possible father number one/Irish-American architect Sam Carmichael, Stellan Skarsgård as possible father number two/Swedish travel writer Bill Anderson, Colin Firth as possible father number three/British banker Harry Bright, Dominic Cooper as Sophie’s fiancé Sky, Julie Walters as former backup singer/successful author Rosie Mulligan and Christine Baranski as former backup singer/wealthy divorcée Tanya Chesham-Leigh.

Meryl Streep is a miraculous talent that has it all: star power, exuberance and a singing voice that literally strikes a chord directly in the hearts and minds of fans and audiences. Amanda Seyfried is not just a shining star, but she’s got an angelic voice that exudes charm and potential. Together, Streep and Seyfried form a delightful onscreen dynamic between mother and daughter. Both actresses are backed by a trio of diverse actors who have basically played James Bond (Brosnan), King George VI (Firth) and MCU’s Dr. Eric Selvig (Skarsgård), respectively. What’s more, Julie Walters and Christine Baranski are a pair of excellent female troupers who add wisecracks and class to the mix.

The story takes place on a fictional island in Greece, which in turn reflects a vibrant society complemented by a picturesque backdrop. It is that particular setting where its inhabitants are engrossed in the idea of finding someone to share their lives with.

Throughout the course of the film, a string of budding romances start to develop, though not without its share of chaos. As such, a dumbfounded Donna struggles to reconcile her past affairs, while Sophie in turn struggles to identify her real father.

This particular musical (both the film and stage adaptation) is built around a selection of songs from Swedish pop supergroup ABBA. The track list includes: “I Have a Dream”, “Honey, Honey”, “Money, Money, Money”, “Chiquitita”, “Dancing Queen”, “Our Last Summer”, “Lay All Your Love on Me”, “Super Trouper”, “Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!”, “Voulez-Vous”, “SOS”, “Does Your Mother Know”, “Slipping Through My Fingers”, “The Winner Takes It All” (sung to perfection in an arresting performance by Meryl Streep), “When All Is Said and Done”, “Take a Chance on Me”, “Waterloo” and, of course, “Mamma Mia”. These songs not only exemplify the uninhibited quality of the story, but have left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry.

Lastly, the overall essence of Mamma Mia! is to embrace uncertainty as it is possible to define yourself without full knowledge of parentage. All in all, I recommend this upbeat, feel-good jukebox musical to every lover (and hater) of ABBA.

i finally found the images to tell this story, so here it is:

last summer, my best friend/roommate and i were standing in our living room, just yelling "DONNAAAAAA", as one does, both thinking we were imitating the same show.

then suddenly i was like - "wait, are you doing tenth doctor or pierce brosnan?" and he was like "oh, i was doing tenth doctor" and i said "i was doing pierce brosnan!"

which might sound like nonsense to you, unless you've seen both season 4 of doctor who, and the 2008 classic film Mamma Mia.

cannot BELIEVE some people watched Mamma Mia! (2008) and came away from it to make polls genuinely debating who Sophie's dad is. In this essay-

#mamma mia! #sophie sheridan #mamma mia 2008

[littlenim]

personal LAD:8 wish fulfillment scenarios ranked from lowest to highest probability of occurrence, Majima-specific:

3) it is revealed that the person who Kiryu proposed to was, in fact, Majima, who rejected him for one of any number of reasons (probably the death faking thing lbr). Hijinks ensue. by the end of the game the two of them plus Saejima are getting married as a triad in Hawaii, in a sequence ripped shamelessly from Mamma Mia! (2008) in which Ichiban had already planned a wedding for himself and Saeko but now understands that they are not ready, and Kiryu doesn’t want to waste the venue and opportunity.

2) in a serendipitous turn of events Majima runs into Makoto, who has been living in Hawaii since the end the YK2 Majima saga. Her husband has since passed in a tragic boating accident. Splish splash, doctor overboard, you get the picture. They get married in a scenario ripped straight from Mamma Mia! (2008) in which Ichiban had already planned a wedding for himself and Saeko but now understands that they are not ready, and Majima doesn’t want to waste the venue and opportunity. Saejima moves into the in-law suite in their home and gets into gardening.

1) Majima and Saejima are near-completely absent from most of the game but pop up in one scene in Hawaii where they run into the party, who didn’t know they were there. They are both conspicuously wearing wedding bands, but nobody notices or comments on it.

it is very important in scenarios 2 and 3 that the wedding sequence is ripped straight from modern masterpiece Mamma Mia! (2008). The ABBA is negotiable but it would be nice if they at least threw in a style parody with questionable lyrics

#do you see my vision?? do you see it? #like a dragon: infinite wealth #like a dragon #rgg #yakuza #my last pitch is a credits sequence in which the whole cast has fun in the sun while Burning Love plays but I thought the pivot from #Mamma Mia! (2008) to Lilo and Stitch detracted from clarity of the bit #sorry about all this in my defense I actually do Hauve Covid

"That was so exciting. Meryl Streep was really good in it. I didn't know that she could sing. She was very fresh and down-to-earth, not like a big star, and said, "It's so good to meet you. I love these Abba songs." She's been into it a long time, singing the Abba songs. I think the Mamma Mia' craze is great." Agnetha Fältskog "Meryl Streep's The Winner Takes It All is absolutely fantastic." Annifrid Lyngstad
