A while back I brought you news of Made of Honor, a rom-com that joins a proud tradition of bad made/maid titles, and whose plot is virtually identical to My Best Friend’s Wedding.
Anyway, thanks to a new contest, YOU can get married at the premiere – it’d be like a McDream come true!
[To enter] go to the website and submit a photo of you and your beloved, along with the story of the moment you realized you were meant to be together [From the first second I saw her I just knew she was the stackedest Ukranian on the whole dang internet]
[From the entries will be chosen] 20 semi-finalists, who will submit videos of themselves answering the same question…The contest will be featured on Entertainment Tonight. The top four will move on to the coveted final round, where your video and story will be judged and voted on by the public to determine which lucky couple gets the grand prize… A trip for four to the premiere city [Fingers crossed for Wilmington!]. …The bride’s gown (provided by Selia Yang), the groom’s tux, a bridal bouquet (provided by Fleurop), his-and-hers wedding bands (provided by Damiani), and a $3000 gift card to Bed Bath & Beyond. [Cinematical]
Bed, Bath and Beyond is the 9th circle of hell. You go in looking for a bath mat and spend the next three hours feeling like a failure because your ceiling fan cord doesn’t match your duvet cover (sweet lord, doesn’t anything go with mauve?). But I guess it’s either or that or forever hold your piece. Get it?? Oh my God, feel the PUNishment! *sigh*
Just in case there was any doubt in your mind that Patrick Dempsey is every bit as manly as bare knuckle boxer Jack Dempsey, CinemaBlend today has an article with the headline "Dempsey Got Depressed While Filming Enchanted."
Actor Patrick Dempsey suffered depression on the set of his new movie Enchanted - because he felt desperately out of his depth making a semi-animated movie. The Grey’s Anatomy star struggled acting alongside imaginary creatures, and doubted his acting abilities for the first time in his career. He says, "It was a real challenge. There’s a scene where birds are coming in, and I’m reacting: `Was it big enough or is it too big?’
Oh Patrick, that’s a question I’ve often asked myself. I’ve found that the answer is, "Oh, haha, you’re kidding, right?"
"I’d go home and be completely depressed because I was like, `Am I making this movie work?’ It was like, `Please just let me go back to Grey’s Anatomy.’"
Gosh, you poor dear. I have just the solution: look to your right - it was the first result of a google image search for "Magic Rainbow Pony". With Magic Rainbow Pony on the case, you can’t possibly be sad! [Thanks to the always huggable Mikael for the tip]
Here’s the new trailer for Made of Honor, whose poster I posted last week.
The worst part about it is that Kevin McKidd, the guy who played Lucius Vorenus in Rome (a real badass, btw), plays the other man – I kept expecting someone to get their head chopped off but instead it was just yuppies eating dinner and shopping for potpourri.
Being a guy is great though, isn’t it? “He used to be a chauvinistic prick, but after his 153rd one night stand, he realized the error of his ways and decided to steal the one chick who’d always put up with his crap away from the one guy who actually respected her. Fingers crossed! Go get ‘em, McDreamy!”
Reminds me of my favorite pickup line, courtesy of FilmDrunkard BDarbs – “I will be cold and distant like your father.”
Here’s the new poster for Made of Honor, starring Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan. It’s basically a dude version of My Best Friend’s Wedding, where some platonic loser goes to break up some awesome wedding as the maid of honor. Hey, no what would make a wedding way better? A ring bear. Like a real bear, that you could feed live chickens during the ceremony (shit man, this is why I need a fianceé).
Made of Honor joins a proud tradition of Maid/Made titled movies that includes Maid of Honor, Maid to Order, Maid in Manhattan, Maid for Each Other, Maid in America, Man Maid, American Maid… and I have high hopes that this one will suck equally massive wang.
Ooh, and guess what the tagline is – “An Unbridaled Comedy”! Oh my God, what did I do to deserve this PUNishment!!
