Is that affecting your desire to see it?

Posted by: HarryWarden on May 06, 09:50 in response to mypalfish's post I know this is shallow and unfair, but the female cast...

It is affecting mine. I'll go to a movie if there's an attractive actress I like in it. Bridesmaids has one of the ugliest casts in recent memory. Maya Rudolph? Melissa McCarthy? You really couldn't get much uglier if you tried. Even casting Kathy Bates wouldn't be that much, if any of a downgrade because at least she's an Oscar winner and is multi-talented. I've been to a few weddings in my life (not mine...yet) and the bridesmaids in them were uniformly more attractive even than those in this film.

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 haven't seen any Apatow film (that I can recall). But some of them do some decent box office business... {nm} Facto May 05, 23:21

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

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
