And I still have no idea what to make of this movie. The next Cabaret? The next Showgirls? The next Glitter? While it looks goooooooorgeous (if I hadn't known anything about the film, I would have guessed that Nine and Chicago DP Dion Beebe was the cinematographer here), some of the set-ups and dialogue look a little weak, especially that "Alice in Wonderland" joke at the end. But the most unsettling part from what little can be determined from the trailer, is that apparently the showrunners felt the need to simply let Christina Aguilera use her voice for over-extended "WHHHHHAAAOOOOOAOAOAOAOAOAAAAOOOOOOOAAAAA's" instead of doing some more, er, singing. Burlesque hits theaters in November, so we still have some months to go before we find out what sort of masterpiece/trainwreck it really is...
