Sometimes those characters work, especially if Zooey Descannel is playing them as she is weirdly adept at it, but this one felt flat. Especially a scene where she leapt off a bed and did an embarassing dance.
Quote: zooo @ August 16 2012, 10:53 PM BSTI think actually/weirdly the Rufus Hound wedding film might kind of be directed at blokes.
The trailer for that looks awful. There's one bit where they just show Robert Webb waggling his hands and making an odd noise. 'Yep, that's going in the trailer!'

I try not to watch any trailers since most nowadays seem to give away the entire film.

If they looked like Zooey Deschannel then I'll overlook their slapability.

I would forward that link on to one of my mates who has a history of dating these girls, except that he has now married one of them.

These other jokers might have a girlcrush on Sue Johnstone, but Zooey's the one for me!
Valkryie. Tom Cruise missing an eye and a hand attempts to kill Hitler. I quite enjoyed it, although I could have done with a bit more of Tom Hollander's zealous Nazi officer.

Respect for not joining the Lesbo Gilf Gang. Long may you continue to perv on younger more attractive celebrities.
Go me.
OH err Lasses and Laddies!
The last Rambo film. Sylvester Stallone's got a massively odd face nowadays. It did detract a bit from my enjoyment of the wall-to-wall racism and killing.
13 Assassins. Pretty decent samrai shenanigans.

It is a bit jarring when he turns up halfway through.
Just seen The Avengeres again, and saw the second post credit sequence for the first time! Left after the 'space one' when I watched it the first thinking that was it. Funny.
The Grey now.
whats the second one I can't remember if I saw it
