1. Despite my avowed boycott of most non-Woody-Allen, scripted film, I will make an exception for a close friend who can't find anyone else to go (in other words, I'm a soft touch ). It probably didn't hurt that the theatre was literally a minute away from my office.

2 There is a film coming out with Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves that has the most ridiculous, cheesy premise I've ever heard. I cannot believe this idea was greenlighted.

3. Kate Hudson is in killer shape.

4. There is a trailer for The Devil Wears Prada that consists mainly of an uninterrupted opening scene that is so long, I swear I started to think maybe we'd stumbled into the wrong theatre number.

5. Vince Vaughn actually wrote the story and was a producer on the film.

6. Even though the reviews are apparently atrocious, I found it fairly amusing, mainly due to the presence of Vince Vaughn (although my parents happened to see the same flick and my mother was appalled that I discounted the more dramatic elements of the story and referred to it as "a comedy").

7. Jon Favreau is in the flick, still funny, but much heavier (and balder) than in the Swingers days.

8. Why Chicago is really referred to as "The Second City".

9. That the Fireside Bowl is still around.

10.. Jennifer Aniston has a smokin' little bod and isn't a bad actress (for whatever that's worth). I'd hit that before Angelina Crazie.

11. Judy Davis is alive and well.

12. You can get a nice shot in the parking lot of a shopping mall with a cell phone camera:

They showed a scene of it on Sunday Morning Shootout where she wanted him to set the table but he was tired & watching tv. She tells him she's tired too, been home cooking all evening... BUT she has SHOES on... HEELS at that! I mean really, who the FUCK wears heels when they're cooking a meal in their own house??? I hate movies that totally ignore real life & care more about the bloody wardrobe

Wouldn't that describe about 99% of them?

Incidentally, I heard on the news (yes, the news ) that they had her wear very tall heels throughout the film due to the height differential between her and V.V. Didn't bother me none.

any man that says that is just insecure and intimidated by angelina...

the power of jolie compels you!!! the power of jolie compels you!!!

I've been thinking about seeing this

Ree-sist, ree-sist!!!!! Be true to Jen!!!

sosgemini said:

The only thing that intimidates me about her is her psychosis.

why did you have to tell me judy davis is in it? tell me she throws a fit in the movie and i'll have to go see it.

you remove anistan's hair and she has man-face.

Jolie forever!!!

jennifer anniston's face reminds me of a shoe. same thing with celine dion. shoe face.

sosgemini said:

I have always thought that without her hair (which must be long and feminine looking") Anistan would looke convincing like a man with boobs.
I don't even think she could wear a trendy pixy cut.

sosgemini said:

She does look a bit like Iggy Pop (no insult to Iggy...I love the man!)







Iggy edit

I went to see this last night with a friend of mine. It was his idea, I had nothing else to do.

I dunno, I'm not much into romantic comedies. The movie would have gotten better is someone would have fired up a chainsaw or got possessed by the devil or something.

Vince Vaughn looked good though prancing around the house in his boxers, and rolling around the bed What was up with Vincent Donofrio's character?? Was he supposed to be semi-retarded or something? LOL

It was a bit too by-the-books for me though, I was glad how it ended however.

I've always said that, facially, she is incredibly average-looking. But she is in killer shape.

who is that hot, moccasin faced man???

Wasn't he in Heathers?

Anx said:

WTF?

shoe face?

i can't help it! yes! their faces remind me of old moccasins! all long and crooked and leathery!

I cannot believe that people actually find Jennifer Aniston hot. Nasty. She does not have a pretty face at all. And she is not a very good actress. Pitt made the right move. Angelina is a babe.

As far as the movie, I saw it with the babe and it is pretty damn funny. There are some really good laugh out loud moments. Vince Vaughn is great as usual. Aniston has no acting range as usual. She acts the same way in every movie. The supporting cast are really good. Particularly Jon Favreau and the guy who plays Anistons gay brother. He steals all the scenes he is in.

I won't give the ending away but it's not what you would think in a a movie like this. That was refreshing. Although it seemed to piss off some audience members at the viewing we were at.

And me and the babe hugged for the first time. It was a first time awkward type of hug that she made the move on. I think she is wondering why i am not making a move. Sacktime is a comin'. It's too bad that i have to go through this routine to get it though.

you should just rent "the reagans" or the judy garland mini-series again.

Anx said:

Husbands and Wives, "sigh"


I absolutely love her in IMPROMPTU. All my fave actors are in that movie.

MIGUELGOMEZ said:

"husbands and wives" is like the judy davis holy grail performance, true. but i love it in the judy garland movie when she's having a fit and throwing stuff in the swimming pool, and when she runs out of things to throw, she grabs herself by the waist and throws HERSELF in the pool.
