but you're not a soccer mom - a deadly combination.
but i agree with you on your "belting" theory. that's what these girls did all throughout the movie - everything was BRASSY and LOUD with no subtly whatsoever. i saw the stage version a couple years ago and yes, the belting worked in that medium. but this is film - there so much more you can do with that and it wasn't taken advantage of.
by the way, you probably already know this being the media-savvy chick that you are, but why do you thing queen latifah sang with cathering zeta-jones and not zellweiger (yep, i mangled those names). because the academy award people would not allow zellweiger lip synch. knowing her voice sounds like a fog horn, she refused to sing.
