mcbg1, since you've already seen the finished product, could you possibly tell us what people who aren't her friends call her..?

I honestly don't know lol
In the movie her name is Kelly Taylor , it's probably something the screenwriter found funny lol.
Perhaps the theater version will explain more about this situation than in the test screening version I saw.

You should name a source before making this statement
By the way the movie WILL be screened for critics.
Also the movie is pushed to June 20th because the demand is higher than expected and theaters owners need more time to reserve their screens for this movie.
Finally, 2 new clips ( Musical Sequences ) can be found at :

My source at Fox told me this morning that the movie will be sent to more theaters than previously planned due to a high demand and that the movie will be screened to critics probably late next week or the week before the movie's release.

The first feature-length movie in the ``American Idol'' franchise won't debut for two weeks, but it already has disaster written all over it!
``From Justin to Kelly'' features the singing, dancing and line-reading talents of first ``Idol'' winner Kelly Clarkson and her runner-up boytoy, Justin Guarini, as they spin through a swiftly fabricated musical romance.
A Fox rep confirmed yesterday the film will debut June 20 - a week later than scheduled - and gave no explanation for the studio's decision not to offer advance press screenings.
But when a studio elects to leave critics out of the loop, it's generally because the flick's soooo bad even Hollywood's most deluded optimists have gone to Plan B: Try to get as many unsuspecting fools into the cinemas on opening weekend before Justin and Kelly are croaked by bad word-of-mouth.
``It's certainly a piece of work,'' said Someone Who's Seen It. The film has America's democratically elected Idol and her consort sharing love and laughter against the exotic backdrop of spring break in Miami.
With listless deliveries better suited to confessions at gunpoint, the couple first meet when Kelly helps Justin escape a herd of party girls by climbing through a bathroom window. But Justin fears his hair is ``too big'' to fit through! ``I'm from Texas,'' Miss Independent robotically intones. ``I've seen bigger.'' Oy.

Sounds like your Fox friend is feeding you the spin. "Oh we're moving it back because it's going to be a bigger hit than it's expected and we need more time to get the theaters ready....yeah that's the ticket."

Guys I'm not saying this movie will beat The Hulk or will win any academy awards ! I'm just saying it won't a flop.
What now ? Am i not allowed to like the movie ?
I've seen it and I liked it. You guys keep bashing it even before it's released. If you see it and then you hate it, that's fine. Just don't bash it until you've seen it.
If you don't want to see it, then keep your mouth shut and talk about other movies you've seen.

So what's our opening weekend predictions? mcbg1, we know you like it (which is perfectly ok) but what means "Not a flop"?
I say less than 4 mil opening weekend.
(I will probably check it out once it hits HBO btw)
