By Want to sing in a crowded cinema for “Moana 2”? You can go for it according to actor Dwayne Johnson.
The Rock is currently reprising his Maui role filming the live-action “Moana” film in Hawaii and is doing some promotion for the original “Moana” animated film’s sequel opening in cinemas Wednesday.
Speaking with BBC News this week, he says Moana fans shouldn’t be afraid to sing in the movie theater when seeing the film:
“Especially if you love music, that’s the fun part. Sing! You’ve paid your hard-earned money for a ticket, and you’ve gone into a musical, and you’re into it. Sing.”
Even before Johnson weighed in, the topic has been widely discussed this weekend on social media following the release of the musical “Wicked” in cinemas. In both cases, almost every response appears to come down on the side of a firm ‘no’ to the idea.
The reasoning is people are buying a ticket to hear the actual performers sing, not Karen from Pensacola or Daniel from San Bernadino two seats over who think they can hold a tune. It’s especially true in the case of “Wicked” as the film is already planning special sing-a-long screenings for those who feel the need.
Johnson’s comments have been met with amused backlash, suggesting if this is the case then assorted other disruptive behaviors are also perfectly fine.
“Moana 2” releases in cinemas on November 27th.
