Will Anne Hathaway Strangle Kate Hudson?

God. I Hope So. / Dustin Rowles

Trade News | September 24, 2008 | Comments (32)

All right, before we move on to the trailer, a couple of notes: 1) Even if she’s only done a series of horrible romantic comedies of late, it’s nice to see Candice Bergen get some film work. Also, I’m getting a little creeped out by the fixation Denny and Alan have on her on “Boston Legal.” Blow-up dolls? Cheerleading outfits? She’s an attractive lady for her age, but … the line has been crossed, David Kelley. That said, somebody has to take Diane Keaton’s shitty rom-com leftovers; I’ll take Bergen. 2) Anne Hathaway: There’s a lot of love out there for you. No, really. You’re next movie, Rachel Getting Married looks fantastic. Bride Wars does not. Get away from Kate Hudson. She’ll make your teeth rot.

This movie would be more fun if it starred Kathleen Turner and Glen Close. And it were 1985. Also, if one of them died in the end at the hands of the other.

The movie comes out in January.

Women do love weddings...

Posted by: mark at September 24, 2008 4:15 PM

The studios must know better than I do what I want to see (after all, they have focus groups), so I guess I was mistaken. This movie doesn't look like a mystic-tanned piece of shit. I will go out with my girlfriends and see it the Saturday after it premieres. Ooh, maybe we can go to the Olive Garden afterwards. I just love their breadsticks.

I can't believe these two trannies are still trying to pass themselves off as females.

Posted by: BarbadoSlim at September 24, 2008 4:18 PM

I can see the guys version of this movie. It would last 45 seconds.

Dude, our weddings are on the same day....one of us needs to change.

one...two...three...shoot

Rock covers paper...

OK, fuck it, let's get a drink.

Why do the ladyfolk always complicate shit?

Posted by: Rubble44 at September 24, 2008 4:22 PM

Well, that looks like a big pile of suck.

Posted by: rlr260 at September 24, 2008 4:26 PM

Seriously, if Anne Hathaway fought Kate Hudson in a movie, I would watch. But none of that pussified bitchy, hair-pulling catfight garbage. I'm talking bare knuckle brawl.

Posted by: Brie at September 24, 2008 4:30 PM

Oh god. I have to see it now because I NEED to KNOW that their friendship can survive the OMG of their weddings being booked the the SAME VENUE on the SAME DAY!! Can you IMAGINE the HORROR!?! It's like the Hurricane Katrina of wedding disasters!! Thank goodness FEMA didn't have to deal with anything on this level, they would have really effed things up.

When did Colleen from Survivor Borneo grow her hair out and bleach it?

Posted by: Eep at September 24, 2008 4:37 PM

we again have need of a Real Women movie...

Posted by: Stella at September 24, 2008 4:52 PM

As an aspiring screenwriter, I'd like to know who comes up with this shit. Because as much as I'd prefer to be known as someone who writes intelligent, well-plotted films that speak to the human condition, if there exists a short cut where I can pitch dreck like this and get paid, hell, I'll sell out in a heart beat.

Posted by: Marra at September 24, 2008 4:58 PM

I could care less about this movie. I just have to say: Amelia Bedelia? You have the best. name. ever.

Posted by: lizzieborden at September 24, 2008 5:16 PM

Someone needs to strangle her, I'm not sure it'll be Anne though. Despite rumors of her rampant drug use, she looks too innocent to actually hurt somebody. She doesn't realize being in a movie with Kate Hudson is like the kiss of rom-com death. She will forever be in rom-com movies now. Too too sad!

Posted by: ph at September 24, 2008 5:17 PM

I will be watching this on TBS five years from now on a dreary Sunday afternoon when I get dumped by my fiance and have no other comforts but my cat and a god damn box of chocolates. As a woman it's a prophecy to be fulfilled.

Posted by: Lauren at September 24, 2008 5:36 PM

B-Slim... you are a precious snowflake. And like snow, I would prefer encountering you outdoors only.

Posted by: firedmyass at September 24, 2008 6:07 PM

Okay. Here's my thing. Kate Hudson...

WHAT HAPPENED AFTER ALMOST FAMOUS!?
WHY WOULD YOU TEASE THE REST OF THE WORLD BY BEING PENNY LANE ONLY TO RIP OUR HEARTS OUT OF OUR CHESTS AND SHITTING ON THEM BY FOLLOWING UP WITH TERRIBLE FUCKING 'MOVIES'!?!?
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days? Alex & Emma? Le Divorce? Raising Helen? The Skeleton Key? You, Me and Dupree? FOOL'S GOLD?

Has this discussion already happened, because I'd like to be privy to the outcome. And speaking of The Skeleton Key, Peter Sarsgaard, you should be ashamed. ASHAMED.

Posted by: Kash at September 24, 2008 6:09 PM

She will throttle her with the red scarf. Then she will go after Heigl. That's a movie I'd pay to see.

Posted by: greer at September 24, 2008 6:12 PM

I thought y'all liked Kate Hudson. She's at the top of the website.

Posted by: Lucas at September 24, 2008 8:09 PM

I actually liked Le Divorce. Kate is better than Anne Hathaway. She looks like a freakin' rodeo clown to me.

I have had several occassions where I had multiple friends get married on the same night. I either went to both (or all 3) when I could, or didn't. That being said, someone should suck it up, book another venue and a different night (i'm assuming they both don't get married in the same hall the same night) and fire Candace.

On a happier note - loving the Amelia Bedelia name. I loved those books (I think there was more than 1) when I was a kid.

You're next movie

Seriously? Come on. Is it bad that all I got out of this review was the grammatical error? Or just that nobody else said something first? Meh. This movie looks like a big pile of meh.

Posted by: Anne (in Reno) at September 24, 2008 9:30 PM

The only thing that would save this movie is a "Very Bad Things"-style ending.


(or a couple of lesbian orgy scenes)

Posted by: brownribbon at September 24, 2008 10:08 PM

"My hair's blue! It's blue!"

The writer really couldn't think of a punchline? That's the script yelling to the audience, "Get my joke! It's funny!"

Posted by: Crazy Little Thing at September 25, 2008 6:33 AM

I fell asleep during the giggly wedding planning scenes.

Posted by: Raisin'Cookies at September 25, 2008 6:38 AM

Justine - Oh, my God. Hilarious, hilarious observation of Hathaway. She always struck me as an awkward theatre nerd who became reasonably pretty later in life and is overly-lauded for it.

Posted by: samantha t at September 25, 2008 10:31 AM

Amelia Bedelia that's awesome. Just awesome. On all levels.

Posted by: DemonWaterPolo at September 25, 2008 11:23 AM

Yes, yes...this is what women's friendship boils down to. Convenience and materialism. Like, I'll totally have so much to relate to in this film!

Posted by: eliza at September 25, 2008 11:49 AM

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK! I'm going to get dragged to see this, I JUST KNOW IT! That's fucking it...I've had it with these wedding comedies. I'm renting a cabin in the woods, and holing up from the beginning of January until the beginning of May, avoiding shit movie season and THIS movie. During said period, I shall write a horror picture set during a wedding comedy. It'll start out all hearts and flowers and shit, then BAM! Anal decapitation. (Don't ask what it means, just picture it happening to Kathrine Heigl.) This is what I fucking get for actually somewhat enjoying "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days". Goddamn you Robert Klein and Adam Goldberg!

Posted by: Mike R. at September 25, 2008 12:00 PM

dustin, you totally wrote "you're" when you were supposed to write "your"!!! OMG!!!

Posted by: surly suzie at September 25, 2008 6:17 PM

And speaking of The Skeleton Key, Peter Sarsgaard, you should be ashamed. ASHAMED.

Kate and Peter were not the problem of "The Skeleton Key".

The problem was John Hurt's incapacitated muteness. I wanted Swampy T. BOHregawwd...BUT NO! I just got the Regal butter going wrong on me and a sad feeling of missed opportunity.

I did wonder, though, if it's hard or easy on an actor to play someone nearly comatose throughout an entire film.

Posted by: Jay at September 25, 2008 6:28 PM

But don't the background (extras) performers look awesome???

Posted by: YODELS61 at September 26, 2008 10:56 AM

This movies is as offensive to women as a movie about two Black people fighting over a bucket of chicken would be. Scratch that... I don't want to give Tyler Perry any ideas.

Posted by: ciji at September 26, 2008 3:25 PM

well...if nobody likes kate hudson. I'll take her anytime.
You can have the chick from "the devil wears prada" (what a looooooong ride!)and make her eat.
