    I was hoping that the couple reads Gawker and included made up famous relatives solely to run up their points in Altarcations. Also I will totally see that Rome movie.

    Nothing against Kristen (well, except Dax Shepard, I mean really Kristen?), but here's another trailer that's way too long and interchangeable every other C-grade rom com (People fall down! Lots of things break! A wedding singing and dancing scene! Good looking guy has fat friend!...ugh--I do like you on SNL though, Bobby.) So I've actually got to sit through Avatar for some originality?

    not buying that fuller story. no one under 50 "loves" nancy meyers flicks.

    just got over the nausea induced by reading the meyers piece in the magazine, and now this? oy.

    @thatgirlinnewyork: I was 35 when Something's Gotta Give came out in 2003, and I loved it - probably because the love of my life is 31 years older than me and he had quite a rep as a ladies' man before we met in 1994. I also love the movie because Keanu Reeves can do no wrong... even though he can't really act.

    But SGTG is also the only Nancy Meyers film I've ever seen, so... grain of salt and all.

    true--reeves was as good a piece of arm candy as they could manage to cast in SGTG.

    @Lysergic Asset: streep/baldwin casting follows the foolproof formula that smart, organically good looking fifty-ish woman works magically with self-effacing, admitted womanizer. lady gets the upper hand, and, one assumes, the chutzpah to demand he serve her needs.

    @Lysergic Asset: where the female character lead is 10 years older than the male character lead, or are you referring to the actors' real ages? i think there have been plenty since sunset boulevard, but it would take some time to accurately list them. i don't really associate meyers' work with progress--it's simply female boomer wet dream fantasy stuff.

    @Lysergic Asset: one can only asssume they're close in age--they play a formerly married couple in the film. but yes--cable or DVD will probably make watching it smart a little less.

    no offense meant if you really like meyers' work (i suppose you'd have to see a lot more of that in order to form an opinion), but as someone who is not the target cohort of her work, i can only inveigh as a potential aspirant. as far as that goes, i kind of prefer patti smith's vision of what a 50+ woman's life can look like over meyers'. not everyone's yearns for a 500 sf stainless kitchen, a wealth of the right coffee table books, and a peripheral career that has no bearing on her day to day life. it's all a bit facile.

    @RandomLunatic: Speaking of the brilliance of Will Ferrell, have you seen this interview with Jim Caviezel from "Anchorman"? While watching this, you have to remember than Caviezel is a very devout Christian... but he obviously has an amazing sense of humor, judging by this clip (below the pic).

    "If your boyfriend wants a three-way with you and his hot, underage Chilean housekeeper and you deny him, it's bad for his self esteem and will only make him look to another woman if you don't give him what he wants."

    "If your boyfriend asks you to buy Christmas presents for all his other lovers and you say no, then what you're really saying is that you don't want to be his girlfriend anymore."

    "If your boyfriend asks you to take his serrated kitchen knife and 'hide it somewhere for awhile' and you quickly realize it is covered in dried blood and clumps of long hair and you say, 'Hell no, I'm not taking this', that says you're just not supportive enough of him and he should leave you for someone who stands by him."

    "If your boyfriend wants to comment anonymously on a gossip blog about how jacked-up it is for you to be a role model for other young women who might actually listen to you, by all means, let him do it."

    I'm going to just say it. I cannot stand Rihanna. I think she cannot sing and her songs are crap. I have no idea how she scored a record deal in the first place aside from having "the look" that was marketable. And she needs to go away if she continues making these ridiculous comments. She needs to go away anyway.
