Super Ex-Girlfriend

Post by wayfriend »

I heard about this on AICN. It seems the trailer is out now.

This is a concept that could be very entertaining.

Plot Outline: When a regular guy (Luke Wilson) dumps a superhero (Uma Thurman) because of her neediness, she uses her powers to make his life a living hell.

Saw an ad for this the other day. Looks to be hysterical.

I think I saw the trailer for it in the theatre around Easter. It didn't strike me as anything to look forward to. Then again, maybe it's a gender thing.

Normally you'd expect this kind of story to feature a few throw away feats of strength and a lot of comedy/drama. The trailers indicate that there is no lack of superhero type special effects to go along with what appears to be a great setup. I'll see it too.

Yeah, this is definately up there with Clerks II and Snakes on a Plane.

Heh, cute. I think I'll try to catch it on the big screen.

I read the blurb in EW about it in their summer movie issue and it's been on my list for some time - but then again I'm a weird girl.

You should see it in Tampa...we're closer to the equator, so the screen looks way huger.

As long as you don't go South of the Equator....Then the film plays backwards.
