As I sit here typing this, I am watching what is probably one of the best movies of all time with my friend, singing along to every song, and thoroughly enjoying ourselves. I have come to realize that every time I watch this movie, the same thoughts go through my mind, and as I share them with my friend sitting next to me, she has the same ones. So here it is ladies and gents, 5 things that go through your head as you watch Mamma Mia:
1. Wow, is it cool or sad that I know every word to these songs?
Let’s be honest here, those Abba songs are bomb and you know it. They are super catchy and get stuck in your head all day. You only need to see the movie a couple times to learn all the words, and once you know them, you start rocking out to them every time one of them comes on.2. I neeeeeeed to go to Greece
This movie will give you an insane desire to go to Greece. You will think to yourself, “I need to go stand in the exact spot where they are standing when they sing that song!” At some point while watching you will probably even consider moving there.
3. Donna and her friends, and Sophie and her friends are goals
4. How in the heck does she run up that giant hill to the church while singing and not be out of breath!?
In the scene where Donna is singing to Sam on her way to the church she starts running up that hill, scratch that, small mountain. All I can think while she does that is how the heck is that even possible? And when she gets to the top she’s not sweating or even tired. Like come on, you could have it slightly more realistic.5. Man, I wish I was a part of the Dancing Queen scene
It’s only like, the best scene in the whole movie! Every girl and woman on the island ends up dancing on that dock, and it looks so fun! Also, they dance across the whole island (which, again, looks very tiring, but I guess if you’re a dancing queen you can do it). Ever since I saw the movie for the first time, I think of that scene every time I hear the song Dancing Queen come on.
