Here's a great article (? essay?) piece about Melissa McCarthy: [link]
'Dirty Girls'
Buffista Movies 7: Brides for 7 Samurai
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I have never seen Bull Durham. I feel completely comfortable with this as a life choice.
I enjoyed certain parts of Trainwreck, but then again I enjoy a good rom com. Tilda Swinton was everything in that movie!
I am on pins and needles waiting for Keanu. I heart Key & Peele. I miss their show like every day. I will be miffed if Keanu doesn't make a cameo at least. Missed opportunity.
I liked Trainwreck very much but not nearly as much as Spy. Most things I didn't like about Trainwreck are directly related to its Apatow-ness not its Schumer-ness. And LeBron was hilarious.
Go Melissa McCarthy!
I am a Bull Durham fan, although I admit I might find the depiction of the life of a lit professor a bit more suspect if I ever tried rewatching it. It may help that I'm a bigger fan of both Sarandon and Robbins than I am of baseball. Haven't seen either Trainwreck of What's Your Number? but I'd be up for both of them. I have a soft spot for rom coms.
And I do want to see Keanu because Key & Peele & kitten! But I am a bit leery. I kinda love the first bit and I'm worried I won't love the rest of the movie quite as much.
I have never seen Bull Durham! I don't like baseball much and not a huge fan of ....Kevin Costner? So I just dont 'watch it.
I am also "meh" on Bull Durham. Don't like baseball.
I am stupidly excited about Keanu! I think have rewound and watched every trailer I've stumbled across (and there have been A LOT!)
I'm not fond of baseball either, but it makes the best sports movies.

True that. Heh. Although my favorite sports movie of all time may be Slap Shot, and I'm NOT a hockey fan at all.
I love Slap Shot, but if I take my love of hockey out of the equation I think Bull Durham, Field of Dreams, and A League of Their Own are probably better movies.
