I LOVE This Video! -- "Target Women: Chick Flicks"

Hey there Movie Lovers --

Happy Monday!

Well, if you're a regular reader of this blog (of course you are!) then you're familiar with the very funny Sarah Haskins and the periodic "Target Women" pieces she does for the weekly news parody web show Info Mania on Current TV.

Guess what?

Lucky for us, she's posted a new one and it's right up our movie-lovin' alley!

Sarah takes a few well-deserved digs at the "Chick Flick" genre......and even picks on an upcoming film that I've been looking forward to for about 10 years: The Women.


OK.....so for a fun Monday mornin' chuckle, click below to check out --
"Target Women: Chick Flicks"

(I have a few comments afterward)


Yep, gotta love it.

Two things:

1. If you enjoy Sarah and her Target Women series as much as I do, you can click this link: Sarah Haskins/Target Women and head on over to current tv to watch all of her previous work. I highly recommend the bridezilla/wedding shows piece and the one about marketing yogurt to women. Funny stuff.

2. I must say to Sarah (and all of the other avid Colin Firth fans out there....), unfortunately the handsome & sensitive Mr. Firth is currently off the market......totally taken, happily married.


Hmmm........

At least, that's what his wife's recent red (ooops, I mean blue) carpet attire at the London Mamma Mia premiere would have us believe:


Huh.

Interesting.

Let's look more closely, shall we?

OK....YOU be the judge:



Yep, she certainly looks "HAPPY."

She's totally rockin' that yellow sparkle-sequined shift with the "Have A Nice Day" logo on it.

(I'm somewhat bothered by the unfortunate placement of the eyes, aren't you?)

Well, you know what they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words."

(And the picture of that dress is definitely sayin' somethin'.)

I happen to think it's sayin': "I need to buy a mirror."

But hey, that's just me.

OK, that's all for now Movie Lovers.......

Stay tuned.

Now For Some Real Scoop.....New Trailer For The Upcoming Flick "The Women"

Hey y'all.........

Check out the just-released trailer for the upcoming Fall flick: The Women.

The video quality from YouTube isn't so hot......but just go with it.



So....I'm thinkin' it looks funny and worthwhile, I just hope they didn't use the only good stuff in the trailer.

One sure thing -- the cast is top-notch and chock full of feisty females that we don't get to see nearly enough of on the silver screen.


Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Debra Messing, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Cloris Leachman, Candice Bergen, Bette Midler, Carrie Fisher, Joanna Gleason, Lynn Whitfield and Ana Gasteyer.

Wow.....it's like Ocean's Eleven for the ladies!

Hmmm.....well, the other Ocean flicks are kinda for the ladies too, if ya know what I mean :)


Whatever -- it's about time.

I've had this flick on my radar for quite a while now.....it's actually been in and out of development for about 10 years or more.

Wow, I must say....their timing here couldn't be better -- considering those 4 gals in that sexy city have made Hollywood suddenly realize that women over 40 actually like going to the movies, and enjoy watching stories about other women over 40.

Huh, go figure.

The Women is a remake (I know, I know....but let's not judge just yet) of a 1939 classic, that starred a young Joan Crawford as the catty "other woman", Crystal. Sultry Eva Mendes plays her in the remake.


This new version is written and directed by Diane English. Does her name sound familiar? It should....she's the brains behind the wonderful TV series Murphy Brown. Hey, Candice even gets a cameo!

OK......so something to look forward to in the Fall. As of right now, The Women is scheduled to open on Friday, September 12.

Hey, that's my 44th birthday!
(44 is the new 34, doncha know.)

Hmmm......maybe a big, organized "Kelly's Movie Kamp" glam girls birthday outing will be in order.

Sounds good to me.

Stay tuned.......

Kelly :)
