Feet-First Introduction: When Edna first appears walking down the hall to tell Tracy to "turn the racket down", the camera begins at her feet before we pan up to her head.
1:21 Edna: Tracy Turnblad, are you trying to tell me that Penny didn't get permission from her mother to be here? Prudy: What?! (Penny peeks out from the couch) Penny! You are banned from this house! (grabs Penny by the hand. Penny picks up her bag) You will never watch that show again! Penny: Without that show, I have nothing... Prudy: Having nothing builds CHARACTER! (Pushes Penny) Toodle-loo, Edna...(Tracy stares and turns to Edna).
Oh yes. This happened a lot if you were a kid in the 70s/ 80s. Parents had no problem dragging you out of someone's home and scolding you in their house, infront of others. HUGE HUMILIATION AND KEPT US KIDS INLINE. And not only did the parents scold you, the neighbors would be keeping an eye on you also.
Whoever casted John Travolta as Edna was pure genius
You are kidding right, he is just a not good actor doing drag. . . Unlike Divine.
@@BobChippewa divine aint nothing
@@itzhope3787 WTF you even talking about. Get outta here bitch.
Hardly,. You obviously haven't seen the original movie.
@@BobChippewa FACTS
This is complete comedy gold from Travolta and no one can convince me otherwise.
For those curious: $3 in 1962 would be about $29.98 in 2023.
Having nothing builds CHARACTER
Toodle-loo, Edna!
that quote was so compelling to me 😂
Is she even hearing herself right now? That's like saying having nothing builds a bridge!
She has a point
That audible thud you hear when Penny hits the floor always makes me laugh
I'm from Baltimore and Edna's accent is a bit over the top but funny as heck.
Well I think that’s the point, sir.
So you’re telling me you don’t call it an Arn?
@@WeirdWolfGirlArt it's 100% an arn
John Travolta is from New Jersey so they're trying to mix the two.
john travolta DEVOURED this like expectations EXCEEDED
Ate and left no crumbs 😂😂
Hard to believe Tom Hanks was once considered for the role of Edna...
The man exhibits appropriate artistic integrity.
But John travolta got it
Yeah just like John Travolta was once considered for the role of Forrest Gump
@@ethanbrittsan5263 True.
I don’t think I can imagine Tom Hanks in drag
“I’m trying to ‘urn’ here!”
“I’m tryna arn here” will forever be iconic
One of my favorite movies as a kid and still is !!!! 😂❤️
When Edna puts the finger up she’s like saying I don’t wanna hear it
13 people left their oron on.. Haha!
love this movie i can watch from start to finshish saying and singing every word along with the movie
0:34, that was hilarious when the pillow flew off the couch
I never noticed that lmao
2007 version I was around for as a kid.

Honestly that’s an amazing Baltimore accent from travolta
Wavin raven? Lil twitchy?

What was the reason
Top 10 people who could defeat Thanos in seconds.
0:30 p l e a t s
Lmao
I love that she smacks Penny's back when she says 'character"😂😂😂
“The wavin raven? Lil twitchy??” 🤣✋
I like how Prudy blatantly disrespects her daughter in her own home 😐

@@rhymeandreasoning no way! that's crazy
“Wavin Raven.” lol
Too bad the Ravens weren't a team yet.
“Aern”
I love that Baltimore hon talk, hon.
Imagine waking up next to that every morning.
DOSE NO ONE ELSE NOTICE HOW FAR PENNY CAN JUMP ON HER KNEES
Desperate times call for desperate measures lol
One of my favorite scenes *I'm trying to iron here* hahahaha *what is that? The waving raven? It's a little twitchy* haha
This movies too much 🤣 I love it
Nuttin DIVINE about this Edna :-(
John is best Edna!
appleheadlover 2001 Wrong. As much as I love John Travolta, Divine was a better Edna.
The thund penny hit the floor lol
What does Edna mean by personal stains ?
John made a very convincing mother I swear lol
Its a lil twitchy😭😭😭
When ur playing as prudy in the show 😂
I really don't understand why they remade this. It isn't a scratch on the original.
See a penny pick her up and all the day you’ll have good luck
Is this white medea
Allison Janney ❤
She is really hot with Jennifer Love Hewitt as her daughter in _Give Me a Ring Sometime_ (2008) ❤❤❤
I’m sorry but John Travolta can’t hold a candle to Divine as Edna Turnblad
Well said. I agree. The original movie was waaaaayyyyy better.
“I’m tryna irn here”
Well...
that was a very embarrassing game of charades!
A new
When I first saw this movie I had no idea that Edna was played by a man.
Why does she sound like Doctor Evil.
I’m trying to aroin here
the way penny fell tho
Penny's mom is sad 😞
No she mad
arn
Who thought it was a good idea to get Travolta to do this part?
I think it was a stroke of genius
sammy eagleson More like a genius who had a stroke.
Agree to disagree.
Compared to Divine, Travolta is a robot.
Like I said, agree to disagree
You have to see John Water's Hairspray. . . the remake is crap
fun fact the mom was a man.
_ the mom was John Travolta
It stuck with tradition
I think we all know that
Divine did it better
My lord could he do this accent any worse? He sounds part-Australian.
It's hilarious
A f*cking awful performance by Travolta Divine was 100% better
No
@@benm3382 so you prefer a closet queen in a fat suit😳 Have you even seen the original film?
