: I don't want to see this movie fail, but I think it will. I have always respected Kevin because I have always seen him as being "outside" the Hollywood mainstream, doing his own thing, his own way. You can't get any more "establishment" than casting Ben-J'Lo in a picture.
what the fuck are you on? I see this is one of those Kevin sold out speaches. Kevin tries to get the best actors available to him.
I always thought Kevin's writing was enough to carry a movie and although he employed big names in movies like Dogma and numerous big name cameos in Jay and Silent Bob movie, his writing and clever stories were enough to carry a movie.
this is funny because you just contridicted yourself.
More importantly, the American public seems to be sick of having Ben-and Jen shoved down their throats
what gives you that impression? Obviousl;y you are, but you also obviously don't speak for very many people. My suggestion to you would be to turn E! off for a few minutes and try watching discovery or something.
. I think this is at least partially to blame for the failure of Gigli and will also play a role in the success or lack thereof when Jersey Girl comes to the theaters. Hopefully, I'm wrong.
Gigli failed because Gigli was a shitty movie in too many peoples eyes, and for no tother reason than that.
