I haven’t followed any of the early reviews and in fact, I don’t even know if there are any out there yet. OK, I did hear about a few today, but I didn’t even bother to peek at one. Yeah, I’m THAT disinterested in some parts of pop culture because (dammit) I really like to be surprised (dammit!). That said, it would be pretty hilarious is this film was really bad when all is said and done. Hey, I’m NOT wishing that on this flick at all, folks. I was at the library today and some kids were having a rather animated conversation about that very thing for some reason and although I wanted to beat them all with a heavy book for yapping so loudly, they made me laugh as well AND get an idea for a post. So, yeah, kids are good for something after all (hee hee)…

Anyway, what just might *doom* the film for some wags out there aren’t people spoiling the ending, but Gwyneth Paltrow somehow being picked as the “Most Beautiful Woman” by the well-intentioned (but somewhat blind or somewhat predictably angling their piece to time with the film’s US release) folks over at People magazine. Not that she’s not a looker with a fancy website all about her healthy lifestyle some should admire instead of revile (and why people hate her so much I’ll never figure out), mind you. But I’d have to safely say that there are PLENTY of non-celebrity gals out there who’d give her a run for her ton of money and hell, I’d bet YOU can find a few in your neighborhood.

Er, just don’t go walking around trying to make a pickup line out of this post – I don’t want you wearing sunglasses at night to hide two black eyes and/or using a cane to help with that limp you got from being knocked down a flight of stairs by some nice gal you decided to try your luck on…
