How sad has this become for LeWalk?

Doing romcoms now?

Although the name is fitting...

Movie seems predictable and something I would never watch by myself

amy shumer getting a lead in a rom com is a bigger shock

i like amy shumer but she's not THAT pretty/cute and her comedy doesn't translate in any way to romcoms

It's a Judd Apatow film(40 year old virgin, knocked up). If that's sad, what did you think about KD's film or Shaq Fu?

But it may translate better to Apatow's raunchier humor than your typical rom com.

He's the sidekick in a fricking romcom.

That's pathetic.

MJ gets space jam, LeWalk gets this

You mean her comedy that has such topics as being a giant slut and dating promiscuously?

Perfect fodder for a Hollywood treatment.

I love Space Jam. Regardless, I'm looking forward to a film that the wife and I can both see without the other being reluctantly made to go. Besides romantic comedies are one of my guilty pleasures (although I don't feel too guilty about it).

i'd just have to imagine that if she has a romantic interest, she's not going to be actually acting very slutty in the movie...and if she's hanging out with the guy, i doubt she gets into it much. there is just a clear saturation point...or should be

I bet almost every Lebron line is in the commercials.

Judd Apatow movies should all come with a maximum suggested IQ of about 93.

Maybe, but Hollywood has a tendency to overdo that kind of thing. Almost as if pushing the envelope is the entire point of the movie instead of entertaining the audience.

South Park can pull it off but most shows and movies can't.

Well the previews make it clear that she happily gets around. She stays over after hooking up with Bill Hader's character--which is apparently rare--and doesn't know what to do when he actually calls her back and wants to date.

Did Amy Schumer crack more jokes about that guy she raped?
