No doubt she'll be a raging lesbian in an attempt by Disney to be "modern"and different.

First official image of Lin-Manuel Miranda too:



The costumes look great actually and I think he's really likeable from what I've seen of him, hope he doesn't put in any raps though

Looks almost just like the original with the merging of animation styles! That's a good thing definitely and I'm impressed, can't wait to see this <3

fabulous film, lovely, nostalgic, great songs, captures the spirit of the original without being slavish and a great cast to boot: 3 Mamma Mia's (Colin Firth, Meryl Streep, JUlie Walters), an original cast actor (Dick Van Dyke is legendary dancing on a table and singing at 93) another classic Disney actor (Angela Lansbury) and the younger leads were fab too. Emily Blunt is a little more errr blunt than Julie Andrews but really good in the role anyway, Ben Whishall is also less loveable than the little boy version, but the plot called for that, one of my fave long-time sci-fi/fantasy actors (David Warner) makes a good ongoing cameo, and the big discovery for me was Lin-Manuel Miranda who was pretty much unknown to me, but starts the film off with an instantly engaging performance that carries on throughout the film - complete with convincing British accent (and yes Dick Van Dyke also got it right - not that any kid ever cared about that, he was in so many Disney or Disney-style kid movies and his own classic sitcom, he was just beloved by that 60's generation).

I'm gushing a bit, but it was so heart-warming for older folk to see an old-style fantasy musical extravagaza free from cheese, misery or realism, that had songs written for the film that worked as part of the film and were much better than I was expecting. 8/10 and in amongst the best films of 2018.

Oh yes, a little girl of 3 or 4 was literally dancing in the aisle with joy at the songs during the screening. Result!

I really loved this. I thought it was so cute and sweet. The songs were familiar in sound and sounded like classic Disney to me, which is a good thing. I thought Emily was fantastic and really owned the role of Mary Poppins. Lin-Manuel Miranda was my highlight though. He's just ridiculously talented and was extremely charming in his role.

So good.
