Bride Wars: Feel The Spray Tan On Your Skin

Bride Wars, aka "The Remember When Kate Hudson Had Blue Hair For A Few Days, Here's Why Movie", now has a trailer up on the internet:

I'm torn between my hatred (or whatever, it's complicated) of chick flicks and my love of escalating revenge movies (Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, The War Of The Roses), but despite actually containing a "then the terrorists win" joke (TOO LATE), the overwhelming appeal of Annie Hathaway compels me to say yeah, I'll see that shit. Whatever. Here's a little Bride Wars trivia you might not know: due to scheduling difficulties, Candice Bergen actually performed her "upper class bitch in a chick flick" acting duties while literally asleep! (Seriously: eight roles in eight years.)

I predict an Oscar for best obscure screenplay.

If you love escalating revenge movies, you have to see The Prestige. Clearly, it's not a comedy, but boy oh boy, that movie is all about who can pull the best revenge-laden bluff. It delivers somethin' fierce.

yeah I don't know. I like Ms. Hathaway a lot too, but this movie looks awful. I'd probably end up shouting at the screen WEDDINGS ARE NOT A BIG DEAL PEOPLE and get thrown out/clawed by a bunch of girls clutching Modern Bride.

although, hey, Kristen Johnston working so that's going for it.
