Delilah Takes on the Thanksgiving Movie Releases! Continued

So on my last post I wrote about Disney's Thanksgiving release, Tangled.  This post I'll be focusing on Screen Gems' Burlesque!

In my last post, I wrote about a couple of reservations I have about Tangled.  With Burlesque, I have absolutely no reservations.  I'm massively excited for this movie to come out on November 24th!  I may even go see it over Thanksgiving weekend, which I never do.

Here's the main reason why I want to see this movie: one word.  Cher.  I'm getting all shivery just thinking about it.  Seriously, I LOVE Cher.  She looks crazy good in the trailer.  She's 64!  And obviously I know she's had work done, but I don't care.  Haters stop hating.  I'm also interested to see how Christina Aguilera fares in her first movie.  Plus it's got Stanley Tucci!  Enough said.  Look how crazy exciting the trailer is:



You could argue that it looks like a mix-up of a lot of other movies like Chicago, Cabaret, practically any dance movie, with a touch of The Devil Wears Prada, and Coyote Ugly.  I still think that this movie is worth it.  Who doesn't like an underdog-succeeds-at-being-a-star-while-wearing-practically-nothing movie?  Plus Cher!!!  Not a whole lot of people, let me tell you.  If the trailer hasn't sold you, check out this clip:



How catchy is this song?  And I'm really not the biggest Christina fan, but she does a really good job on this song.  Plus you know Cher will have at least one number in it, if not more.  Also, from what I can see in the trailer, we get a guyliner-wearing (at least while at work) romantic lead in one of the bartenders, and maybe a bit of a love triangle/competition in Grey's Anatomy's Eric Dane (aka McSteamy)  I love guyliner.

Are you guys as big of a gushy fangirl of Cher as I am?  Are you excited for Burlesque, and if so, what element of the movie is drawing you in?
