I haven't seen any Apatow film (that I can recall). But some of them do some decent box office business... {nm}

Bridesmaids was great... on par with Knocked Up, Superbad and Apatow's other productions. {nm} secretstalker May 05, 20:49

Can't wait to see it. I've read some reviews that suggest it's too "deep" and "pensive" to be a commercial hit. I'm guessing you disagree? GMov May 05, 20:56

They've done a good job picking up the pace on advertising. I have heard from more than one person that the ads/commercials are everywhere. GMov May 05, 21:06

They can't show most of the really funny stuff. Word of mouth is going to be crazy. {nm} CS May 05, 21:37

Exactly... the trailers/commercials don't do it justice for how funny it is. {nm} secretstalker May 06, 03:05

I disagree greatly. {nm} CS May 05, 21:36

I do too...and I haven't even seen it. Have gotten sense of a lot of interest in seeing it from folks with totally disperate tastes. {nm} GMov May 05, 21:58

Knocked Up and Superbad were both horrible. This looks to follow suit. HarryWarden May 05, 23:15

I know this is shallow and unfair, but the female cast is really unnatractive, imo {nm} mypalfish May 06, 07:21

Is that affecting your desire to see it? HarryWarden May 06, 09:50

I think it comes down to this: If you've seen an early screening, you know this will be a hugely leggy hit. MiyazakiFan May 06, 07:47

It doesn't have anything to attract guys who aren't dragged against their will by their girlfriends. {nm} HarryWarden May 06, 10:00
