Yes, this trailer looks pretty weak. But the interesting thing is that Krysten
Ritter (Veronica Mars, Gilmore Girls, Breaking Bad) is apparently becoming the next Judy Greer. By which I mean, you have the best friend of the lead female who is prettier, funnier, more charming, and seemingly smarter than the chief romantic interest (she recently played the best pal in Confessions of a Shopaholic). Obviously this is a matter of personal preference, but, current family circumstances aside, I personally would befriend, date, court, and/or screw Krysten Ritter over lead Alice Eve each and every day of the week. Just like I'd pick Judy Greer over Jeniffer Aniston (Love Happens), Karthyn Heigl (27 Dresses), or Dallas Bryce Howard (The Village). Please pardon one of my least profound posts ever. On a related note, is there any Buffy nerd who would pick Buffy over Willow?.Scott Mendelson
The real question Scott is what about Judy Greer and Jennifer Garner in 13 Going on 30?
ReplyDeleteBTW, doesn't it seem like the main character's friend is supposed to look and feel like Seth Rogen? On that note, couldn't 'Knocked Up' be called the same thing?
In all honesty, I intentionally left off two examples that represented a real choice - IE - Jennifer Garner in 13 Going on 30 and Sarah Chalke in Maneater. I thought I could get away with said 'exceptions', but (sigh) as usual, you're not gonna let me get away with jack-shit are you, Kyle?

ReplyDeleteThat guy meekly raising his hand in the back of the room would be me. Although I think this has a lot to do with the characterizations in the show. I get Willow's pug-nosed cuteness appeal, but Buffy has the stoic/tragic thing going for her, particularly in the later seasons.
If I was a dude I would totes choose Ritter over any of those women she gets co stared with
