I find a small subset of rom-com concepts to be morally reprehensible.

I think the "First Husband's Club" is a lot more bearable, in concept, than "Good Luck Chuck".

  - Try burning down her house, first. That often gets their attention. -- nm - Mop Jun 29, 16:01
  - Yes, but not for that. -- nm - Reagen Jun 29, 14:48 10
    - Should I burn it down for her poor portrayal of Sue Storm/Richards in the abortions that were the Fantasic Four movies. - DaMENACE Jun 29, 14:52 9
      - what about for her "acting" in Dark Angel? -- nm - loosilu Jun 29, 15:03 5
        
        Loved her on Dark Angel. -- nm - David Jun 29, 15:14
        
        She was a rookie on Dark Angel so all is forgiven. -- nm - DaMENACE Jun 29, 15:10
        
        Hey, just because she got out-acted by DiNozzo/Eyes Only, doesn't mean ....... she's not ...... purdy. I guess. -- nm - Beryllium Jun 29, 15:05 2
        
        calling her acting in that show wooden is an insult to wood. -- nm - loosilu Jun 29, 15:07 1
        
        ssshhhh, it was all part of the *character*. - Beryllium Jun 29, 15:14
      - two excellent reasons, there. -- nm - Reagen Jun 29, 14:53
      - I, ummmm..... thought she was pretty sexy in Sin City. -- nm - Subversive Jun 29, 14:53 1
        
        Most guys do. - DaMENACE Jun 29, 14:59
(and by bearable, I mean, I'd almost watch it ... but only with the right cast) -- nm - Beryllium Jun 29, 14:42
