Orange Twofers

[jacey]

When my ex bandmate, H, is not away gigging we make a point of doing the cinema on a Wednesday afternoons, taking advantage of the Orange 241 deal. We generally go an see every SF and fantasy movie out there and as a result have sat and munched popcorn through some crap (Dragonballs), walked out of Tron 2, and caught some good stuff we might not otherwise have made an effore to see (Ironman 1 and 2).

Just occasionally it's a thin week and there are no SF/F movies on offer that we haven't already seen, so we cave and see something else. This week we made the horrible mistake of going to see 'Bad Teacher'. The trailer looked OK, but regrettably it showed all of the best bits (there aren't that many but they can just about scrape enough to make a trailer) and none of the worst bits. I recommend you avoid this movie like the plague unless you really want to see Justin Timberlake dry-humping Cameron Diaz in the most charmelss, unfunny and unerotic manner possible.

This should have been funny. Sadly it just sucked.

I thought the trailer had a few laughs in it and H used to teach so she was quite drawn to it as an alternative to not doing our movie afternoon, but the Bridesmaids trailer didn't do a thing for me. We were trying to avoid Transformers, but both said afterwards that we should have risked that rather than suffer Bad Teacher.

The reviews on Bridesmaids have been better than the trailer and imply it might actually be about women (rather than men as talked about by women).
