I always thought Minka and Leighton could pass for sisters (along with Erinn Hayes). The movie sounds terrible but I LOVE Kelly and Meester, so I'm there.

Hard R for nudity and sexual content or I'm not interested at all... 
Happy that Christian E. Christiansen is directing. Unhappy that he's doing it in Hollywood

If I was the director, I would make the male protagonist a college football player, who served a tour in Iraq and manifested some sort of personality complex. His masculinity is in a crisis, so the girls have a love triangle without him.
The male protagonist resolves his problem with a little help from an African-American football player-friend. He goes on a date with an African-American girl (introduced by his friend). The white girls encounters the couple and become jealous. They realize the errors of homosexuality and win back the male protagonist by the end.

Looks like it's actually Daneel Harris starring in the film-- not Danielle Harris.

As far as the hot chicks goes in this movie, you also forgot:
Nina Dobrev (The Vampire Diaries)
Aly Michalka (Hellcats)
I can't wait to see this next week.

And yeah it's not Danielle Harris, it's Danneel Harris, who played Rachel on One Tree Hill.

You guys should buy a copy of Playboy. It will be cheaper/less time consuming than sitting through this piece of shit.

This would be so much better if it were a remake of The Dreamers instead. But you know, with an all woman cast.
That or Nude Nuns with Big Guns.

Given the crappy competition, it might not be hard to do. It is opening against Sanctum but not sure what kind of traction that movie it getting, but I've seen far more TV spots for that than for The Roommate.

It's a PG-13 Screen Gems thriller starring two semi-famous television actresses and features an Aly Michalka shower scene. And it's not screening for press. Actually, I've heard WOM screenings have been canceled in some markets. Few, if any, will be able to see it before it opens.
Of course it will be number one at the box office.

You guys are a harsh crowd. But, I guess one of the issues you all have a problem with is it being a wussy PG-13 thriller for the dumb teen crowd than going for a hard R.These PG-13 Screen Gem thrillers like Prom Night, Stepfather and now this aren't great cinema by any means, but they have a cheesy B movie appeal to me. Plus, I'm a fan of The CW programs and 3 actors on here are leads on their hit shows.

You know what else has cheesy B-movie appeal? The REAL versions of Prom Night, Stepfather, etc.
Movies like this remind me why I hate most modern horror.
