Who would you have picked??


I would have to pick David Boreanaz because he was really sweet to her but the last part in the restaurant.

reply

are you kidding me?? he was a complete jerk to her! you can't get more romantic than the part where barry plays the home movies of himself in the street.... :)

reply

Henry Thomas anyday!!

reply

totally agree David Boreanaz was a complete plank, he treated her like atrophy girl.

barry wins overall

reply

Henry Thomas (Barry) definitely!! He was by far the sweetest.

reply

Totally Barry (Henry Thomas)!! He's the sweetest and Luke (David Boreanaz) might seems perfect, but he isn't even in the beginning!! Remember how he turned off the radio when Lucy was singing!

reply

Barry was the obvious 'nice guy' choice but I would definitely have chosen Gael Garcia Bernal (Gabriel)!!!

If I could spend the whole day in bed with him and talk about our 'energies'... that would be enough! The guy is absolutely sublime. That's why Lucy found it so hard to resist him!

Incidentally, that would also be my perfect date!

reply

I would have DEFINATELY picked Barry! The video part just about killed me!

i would pick henry thomas(barry) for two reasons:
1. he was so sweet to her the whole time(except when they first met)
2. he looked like barry zito in this movie, and that's such a good thing!

if we didn't know anything about the characters, i would pick david boreanaz instead; he looked good in this movie, and just about every other time i see him.

reply

I agree with you.

Number 1, John - I think he was a little bit boring

Number 2, Gabriel - thats a hard one..i would probably choose him

Number 3, Bobby - I would choose him to be a very good friend (like it is in the movie at the end)

Number 4, Barry - I think i would choose him. He is very nice, and this movie thing...oh.. :)

Number 5, Luke - I think he is some kind of a poser..writing poems to her, but yells at Lucy for no good reason. Also his talking is annoying, just about house, job, furniture...a very material guy.

I just watched this movie with my mum and enjoyed. I'm not usually a fan of the romantic comedy genre. I was glad she chose Barry. I thought he was the most sincere & friendly of all the guys - I kept expecting a plot twist to come into gear and reveal something sinister about him - but it didn't, which was good. This was a good movie. I wonder why it wasn't given a wider theatrical release.

i totally agree! yes, barry was sweet and everything, but gael is so... gael! i would have chosen him the moment i met him. he's gorgeous.

reply

I love David Boreanaz, and in real life he is totally awesome, but he was a jerk in the movie.

So I am going with John Hannah. I LOVE him. He is soooo adorable! He was all wrong for her character, but for me personally, he is just so cute and dorky! You have to love him!

reply

I agree he is cute was a Jerk in the movie. In real life he is awsome and i have to go with Berry in the movie

reply

Did you watch this movie? From the moment they met David (sorry - Luc) was an ass!
In real life David wins hands down. But in the role he played Barry !

reply

ok i understand that he was an ass and barry was really sweet, but lucy was really mean to him and since they are both mean they make the perfect couple. In fact i change my mind i pick barry, but still she was an ass to him. My favorite part was when he when to like 8 different stores to find her allergy pills.

reply

Doug. I think John Hannah is adorable and I dig a british accent. Barry was really cute, but Lucy can keep him ;)

reply

I certainly would have taken Doug -- John Hannah's beautiful Scots burr will win me over every time, no matter how dorky the character he plays!

reply

gabriel. no competition. he's the reincarnation of julius caeser, im the reincarnation of bob fosse.

hahaha just kidding. he's hot, lots of sex... ignore the energy crap and you have yourself a demi-god.

There's no competeing against gael!

reply

I watched this movie last night, FANTASTIC!!!!!
In rank order I would pick:
1. Henry Thomas (Barry), obviously. Loved the engagement ring/rollerblade scene.
2. John Hannah, lovely guy, Scottish accent, nice glasses
3. Antony La Paglia, really sweet guy, well suited to the friend
4. Gael, that guy is HOT
5. Bonearz (whatever), total jerk/loser with a really bad dye job.

Great movie-Monica Potter should be the next Julia Roberts.

reply

hmm.. not many people have mentioned anthony lapaglia. i thought he was funny, with a nice genuine side. not my choice though...

i'd have to say either barry or doug. they were both sweet, with a slightly hidden sense of humour

agreed; david had a shocking dye job

reply

That's a, uh, Scottish accent, but who's counting?

reply

Ha! I'd have chosen him. I dig the science nerd guys. And I think he is -so- cute, and his accent is irresistible!

reply

Definitely Gael. He is really hot!

reply

1) Barry- LOVED his personality, his humor, his hair and cuteness and his SINGING VOICE

2) Doug- a genuinely nice guy and that pop tart thing cracked me up

3) Bobby

4) Gabriel

5) Luke

reply

BARRY ALL THE WAY...I'm watching it right now on Oxygen

He has a since of humor

She had him meet her parents (I think it was her first date with him)

What he did with the video on the street was soo sweet

He took care of her when she was sick (Remember he went to 10 different places to get the 4 hr relief allergy medicine)



AND THAT's WHY I PICKED BARRY

P.S She's a jerk for not picking him in the first place!

reply

OMG ....I haven't seen this movie in two years...I love Henry Thomas and was thrilled that she picked him (Barry)...he was the best choice.

reply

Definitely Barry, but I have to say that Bobby turned out to be much nicer than he was at first and Luke was a jerk all the way. I did like Doug, too, but it had occurred to me that, as David Boreanaz was Luke, his Angel castmate Alexis Denisof would have made a great Doug. Doug reminds me a lot of Wesley.

You had hints that Luke wasn't very nice from the fishing trip and the tennis game, but Barry was always genuine--and he got along with her parents, which is VERY important.
