Oh! I love that clip of Kristen. I just think she is such a lovable and real person. I thought she was great in Forgetting Sarah Marshall, so it will be nice to see her in a leading role this time around.

Solid Snake

...........not in this film by a horrible film director.

fernsita

I am such a sucker for romantic comedies that it would be hard for me to pass it up. I am not going for some gut wrenching Oscar performance, but a cute story with some laughs will make me happy.

Michael Corvin

"Will you still get as much work in Hollywood if I leave you like this?" Response = Awesome.

BravesMG

It's impossible for me to see that trick anymore and not think of Arrested Development.

I'm also in the camp of thinking she's crazy hot, even if she's almost two freaking feet shorter than I am. I went to see Pulse just for her, but not even Kristen can get me out to that pile of nonsense.

Solid Snake

Oddly enough she reminds of the blonde from Hot Fuzz. The Dumb ditzy one w/ the laugh?

fernsita

Hm? I don't know who you are talking about? I wanted to make the connection, so I checked the IMDb board...but no luck.

lucy punch


i disagree with the connection.

I feel bad that I have been laughing at the commercials. Because I know it's going to suck.

movie clip is at 1:30

Solid Snake

I didn't mean it in a negative form. Just her looks remind me of her.

Xander

The previews for this are weird. I've seen two TV spots that made it look midway between a forgettable romantic comedy and downright terrible, and then I saw one the other day that made me laugh out loud. So I don't know what to make of this. Either way, I'll probably throw it in the Netflix queue. I like Duhamel and Bell.

For every person that DOES NOT SEE THIS FILM, $1 will be sent to Haiti.

fernsita

Yeah, I totally see the resemblance! I got you Solid Snake PAC.
toddly6666 -- How about people donate to Haiti and go see this movie if they want to? Seems fair..

LickTheABCs

Yeah, tell me about it. Dax Shepard really funny

Rypro 525

is it sad that the commericals are saying the big reviews are from Facebook

Solid Snake

Not when it's a Mark Steven Johnson film.

fernsita

Why is it sad? The target demo for this film are probably also members of Facebook. (I know I am) Also, I think they had a couple screenings of this film at college campuses, so they probably wanted viewers to share their real opinions about the movie?

Did anyone notice that even Best Buy was promoting their Facebook page during their holiday commercials?

Rypro 525

I didn't know that. Also for all of us, Bell is on Jimmy Kimmel tonight, so we have to suffer through him and Mel Gibson.

RocShemp

She was also in Ella Enchanted.

fernsita

Every time I see another interview of hers it really makes me like her even more. This is a cute interview , AOL Unscripted with Josh and Kristen together. I can see how she dates Dax in real-life now!

Rypro 525

uh oh, Orndorf hated it
http://www.brianorndorf.com/2010/01/...n-in-rome.html
and as of now the only positive review on Rotten Tomatoes is from Pete Hammond, who seemingly loves to get his name on the TV spots

fernsita

Hm...interesting review. Here is another one I came across, praising the movie and cast...
"This Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel led romantic comedy is a sweet and tender film with absolutely hilarious moments that boasts an all-star cast of comedians but it is the on-screen chemistry of the film's two stars that makes the movie really work."

I will decide for myself this weekend...
