So what audiences is this aimed towards?
Couples?
Would guys go pay $10 to see Zac Efron?
I'm a girl and it just doesn't seem appealing to me. That Neighbors movie I'm definitely seeing though.
It's weird. It's like they're trying to make a chick flick for guys. Unless this is what they think women fantasizes about. Men who talks about relationships and feelings to each other.... bwahaha!
share"a chick flick for guys"
Probably the best description I've seen. The movie makers have a problem with this project and how to market it - is it a "romantic comedy" about the guys and their girls, or a buddy flick, a "bromance". If this movie featured three women dealing with "that awkward moment" then we'd think Sex In The City and that would define the audience.
But this movie is about three guys dealing with "that awkward moment," and I don't think guys go to movies about guys dealing with relationships. Maybe this movie will be the first to break the barrier; but probably not.
I'm a guy and I wanna see this simply because every guy has been through this situation. The romantic comedies these days mostly focus on the girls and their issues with relationships, but this one is different it's showing the guys perspective on today's modern romance. I can dig it. And I don't really like Zac Efron that much, but he's catching on with this and Neighbors.
"Celia. That *beep* can lick my balls...tell her I said hi"
Despite what the stories in this movie are going to be about, the message will be the same as most chick flicks or tv shows these days (even the ones which are considered above average like House of Cards and Damages)... women good, men bad.
In this movie, it seems like they even go beyond making the guys look foolish - it looks like they're going to show that men are hopeless without women and that they can't live without them.
So yeah... after watching the trailer again, this movie is, after all, targeted to women.
