The first chick flick for dudes movie?

This movie looks terrible based on the previews. The only thing I'm wondering is why does it have an R rating. Unless there's a random beaver shot somewhere and that's why they had to make it R. It'd be funny if this movie actually turns out awesome and has that buddy buddy crude humor that is meant for men. But this will totally be for dudes with vaginas.

The me that you know he doesn't come around much, that part of me isn't here anymore.

Actually, the parental section on here indicates that there several instances of full frontal male nudity by Zac's character and another character too. I'm guessing that's why the rating is R.

However, I just read the posts of some others and they now say that they think there isn't frontal nudity so who knows.

It reminds me of She's Out of My League, another bad rom-com that was targeted at males. It's most likely rated R for language.

I count six shots.
I count two guns!

There's no nudity. I mean, you see Miles' and Zac's butts but that's it.

It's not a guy's comedy... the guys act like women.
It's not a women's comedy... it's not funny. And the guys act like whiney little girls therefore making them unattractive AND not funny.

It's no one's comedy.

exactly my thoughts from the trailer.
What guy plans on watching a movie based on men from pussified Hollywood's commercial perspective?
I think this is the first movie that may target the homosexual audiences. That's cool.

You've clearly forgotten about the "Sex and the City" movies. College girls, their moms, and their gay friends. It was a pretty interesting experiment in seeing exactly how much a film could make when you completely cut out the straight male moviegoers. I've seen many a romantic comedy come and go in my movie theater managing days, and I've seen those poor husbands and boyfriends get dragged to damn near everything else, but "Sex and the City" marked the time that they all finally took a stand.

Wait... did you just compare That Awkward Moment to the Sex and the City movie?

No.
No on so many levels.

Where do I even begin? Well, for starters Sex and the City had a HUGE following and wonderful ratings and maaany seasons to gather up a big audience for the movie. And I'm not so sure that men "took a stand" by not seeing it... everyone I know agrees that SATC is OFF LIMITS to boyfriends/husbands! It's something you go see with your girlfriends, not guys! It's not some cheesy lovey dovey movie for couples. There are love stories within it but more than anything it is about strong women and their friendship.

Anyway, to refrain from making this rant any longer: These two movies aren't even comparable and I'm not sure why you compared it. That Awkward Moment target audience? No one knows. SATC movie audience? Its huge following of the television series. It is clearly a movie made for women. That Awkward Moment? I don't know who it was made for: The boys are overly sensitive, whiney, and annoying so boys can't relate. The boys may look pretty at times but they're also spending their time talking about hooking up and how they have a list of girls to bang and they'll never commit to a girl... so girls aren't interested in that. Comedy? Honestly don't know anyone who saw any comedy in that. Story? I don't know what the story was.

Point is: there is no comparison.
