Sweetie, darling, LET ME IN! As we’ve been discussing for the better part of a year, the Absolutely Fabulous movie has finally happened. Jennifer Saunders and Joanna Lumley have reunited to reprise their iconic characters, Edina Monsoon and Patsy Stone. Julia Sawalha returns as Saffron, and Jane Horricks returns as Bubbles. They’ve also added a huge cast of celebrity cameos, from Kate Moss to Jon Hamm to Stella McCartney to Cara Delevingne to Gwendoline Christie to Kim Kardashian and more. Well, the first full-length trailer has been released (the teaser came out months ago) and it looks… FABULOUS. I knew I was going to see this in the theater when Eddy rolled out of her car.
I actually love that Stella McCartney won’t give Eddy any clothes to wear. I love that Kate Moss agreed to do this. I love “I’m going to roll away The Hamm.” I love “remind me to go back for the boots in the Westwood window.” I love “we’re in the South of France, everyone’s a criminal!” And “Yeah, it’s a fish.” My God. I am HERE for the AbFab movie. I really hope that Jennifer Saunders did amazing things with this script!!

I hope that racist bit they asked Margaret Cho for was cut out.
Sigh. This doesnt look funny. I’ll watch it but only because I dutifully support female driven movies, otherwise Hollywood will claim that female comedies dont sell. I love British sitcoms and I loved the French and Saunders sketch show but AbFab was awful to me. Painfully awful.
I think it looks hysterical. I have tears in my eyes right now. Roll away the Hamm is definitely my favorite line. I hope the movie is at least half as funny as this trailer. And I’m definitely there opening weekend, sweetie darling!
I love AbFab and can’t wait to watch this movie!
I don’t remember the last time I laughed out loud at a trailer! I am SO there!! Looooooooooove AbFab!!!
I am going to pull out the DVDs and watch the series again from start to finish before I see this… Anyone wanna join me? 😄🍿🍾
Don’t get that on British Airways!
I have to see this movie!
Is that Wanda Ventham I spotted in the church scene ?! 1:555 ?
Yes, it is.
I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!
I love that they still include physical comedy with their brutal wit, and as soon as I saw Pats with the ‘stache, I recalled the episode there that was addressed… was it Morocco?
I’m going to pee my pants at the theater. Hoo boy!
Yup! It was the Morroco episode!
… and wasn’t it Morocco where they sold Saffy to a camel (?) merchant? …
YES!!!!!!
I’m looking so forward to seeing this.
This movie is my everything.
DARLING! SWEETIE! I cannot wait. I don’t care if they showed all the best bits in the trailer.
Sweetie Darling!!! I am so excited for this!
I’m so happy that Jane/Lola is in the movie!
Did I see Gwendolyn Christie’s fine ass?
OMG!! So funny! I can’t wait!
“Leave her, she’s too slow!”.. my favorite line ever (from “France”)
Ab Fab was and is completely awesome. Saunders is a genius. Not only will I watch this, but I’ll actually buy it on Blu-Ray rather than my typical, Ill-advised, one-eyed-Willy way of procuring media.
I am so excited!!! I will for sure be seeing this!
NEED THIS NOW!!
Yeeesssss! I am so excited! Wish they wouldn’t put so much in the trailers. They could have done something more teaser-y with it I reckon.
Edie: ‘I’m being trollied on twitter, some woman called me a pariah.’
Saffy: ‘Do you know what a pariah is?’
Edie: ‘Yeah, its a fish’
hahahaaha – they’re back.
finally someone who wants my money
