Welcome to another edition of ranting and raving about a movie trailer before Ben Lyons can drag his knuckles all over it and declare it “the best movie trailer of October 2008, this year.”
For those of you without a kitty cage (read: VAGINA), here’s some background on this flick. ‘He’s just not that into’ was a line uttered in a season 6 episode of Sex and the City. “Pick-A-Little, Talk-A-Little,” in which Miranda has the epiphany that maybe the dude who isn’t returning her calls is simply “just not that into” her. This was Miranda’s mantra to all single women who were puzzeled about their M.I.A. lovers.
The concept was simple enough to make sense to every single and ready to mingle lady with a profile on match.com. The mantra was wholly embraced and soon those six little words morphed into many other unnecessary words in the form of a best selling book.
And now for the self-help masterpiece is on the big screen. Here’s what we learn from the trailer: Chicks are needy. Guys don’t like commitment. Gay guys make great pets. In other words, holy generalizations Batman - and at the same time, totally fucking, duh!
—Here’s the movie’s first fatal flaw. Dane Cook is not in this movie! He’s not any of the douchey guys. He’s not the nice guy Scarlett, or Ginnifer, or Drew will end up falling for at the end. He’s not even one of the over-acting gay dudes. Come on!
—Fail number two - hot chicks repeatedly being rejected. To quote Seth Myers and Amy Poeler, “Really?!” Really semi-hot man in bar, you’d refuse to give your number to adorable Gennifer Goodwin, really?!
I’m sure this movie will have some sort of uplifting message of self empowerment, buy a vibrator, girl power!, seek comfort in your gays, intermixed with its misogynistic undertones, but I would rather spend a romantic evening dumpster diving with a homeless man than have to sit through the retelling of the same old story of hetero malfunction from the foggy lensed male perspective.
And besides, I’m still waiting by the phone for Ben Lyons to call and ask me to be his date to the premiere.
Um third flaw: NO ALBA
I too dislike this trailer. Now that New Line is more a part of Warner Bros., WB should cut a new, more exciting trailer for this movie like they did for “Pride & Glory”. And make sure to put in more Jennifer Connelly (love her!). But yeah, both movies will probably suck…but at least “P&G” has a cool trailer now. Anyways, well written!
Didn’t Ginnifer Goodwin play the Fat Girl in “Mona Lisa Smile”?
This looks really fucking annoying. I’m glad I like twat.
Actually, I figured out why this irks me; the use of “fleshier” actresses to play the emotionally needy/clingy characters. Somehow I can’t imagine Keira Knightly in any of these roles.
the great thing about jennifier connelly is that she still looks hot eventhough she is already a bit old these days *
Jen connelly is the actress that i have a huge crush. here eyes are really very pretty `;~
-’; I am really thankful to this topic because it really gives up to date information :*-
I was just looking for this info for a while. After six hours of continuous Googleing, finally I got it in your web site. I wonder what is the lack of Google strategy that don’t rank this type of informative web sites in top of the list. Usually the top web sites are full of garbage.
Cool information indeed. My girlfriend has been seeking for this information.
I just discovered using Joomla for dynamic website design but feel the limitation on use of templates is a major minus. I think it should be possible to use my own template in the design. Anyone help?.
I think this is among the most important info for me. And i’m glad reading your article. But should remark on few general things, The site style is perfect, the articles is really excellent : D. Good job, cheers
