Why would they have a photo of Benny Andersson when the article quotes Bjorn Ulvaeus?

Somewhat upset I know the difference between the two....

I'm sure the members of ABBA don't want to be bothered with building yet another silo to store money in.

they already used all the most popular songs in the first movie.
they could just remake the first movie without pierce brosnan, then maybe i'd see that.

oh yeah... and here's ABBA girl Agnetha Fältskog:

Ahhhh....Agnetha.
I remember wanting to bang an Agnetha bartender look-alike at a bar I used to hang out at after turning 21.
Always had a crush on both!

That's okay!

I'm a Spelling stickler...I was getting pissed off that they kept saying "Ulvaes"! It's ULVAEUS, YOU IDIOTS! (at least when written in English text)

I especially hate it when people don't take the time to learn to pronounce last names correctly, either. My maiden name is a common German name, and thankfully easy to say NOW (always has been really), but twenty years ago damn near everybody looked at me like an idiot trying to figure out how to say it.

/Brother-in-law's last name is easy to pronounce, too, but is spelled just like Ulvaeus..you know, weird-looking

Oh, before my spelling stickler rant I was glad to see that it was Björn that didn't want a sequel. Maybe he finally realized the mistake he made when they casted Meryl Streep in that movie, not that HE did the casting...

He mentioned in an interview that he thought she had a great singing voice, but every preview of that movie she was caterwauling! It was awful! I'm not saying Meryl's a bad actress, just a bad singer. I thought Björn was either tone deaf or off his rocker.

/Never saw the movie itself...not a musical person.
//Love ABBA though, not ashamed to admit it.
///Those songs should've only been sung by Agnetha, Frida, Benny, and Björn...I'm just saying...

This is why nobody likes you.

Then you need to shut your gott-damn mouth when the adults are talking; she was farking brilliant in it! Now, that Bond Guy? OH-GOSH-My-ears! But she did a damn fine job.

/Not a fan of musicals; drank my way through it as a favor to the wife
//but I've done some singing in college and she has some pipes, so respect due.

I'm not. I always thought Bjorn was creepy-looking. Benny on the other hand was my first celeb crush.

He's still cute.

a sequel? really? christ, i hope not. anyway, is there a precedent for this? i don't see other musical sequels.

rent 2: the wrath of the landlord?
2 les 2 miserables?

This is the greatest ABBA-created (sorta) musical ever made;

Really, it's one of the greatest musicals, period.

There was the amazing Marvin Trilogy (In Trousers/March of the Falsettos/Falsettoland)
And of course, Nunsense, and it's thousands of horrific spawns.

I know, but your mom was screaming that she loved me last night.

The daughter in the movie has a fantastic rack.
