Why is it that every movie out now has the standard Hollywood formula: fat guy and the hot chick?
Who green lit this flamming bag of goo?
"You want me to deprioritize my current reports until you advise of a status upgrade?"
im about to head west maybe i should
gain some weight before i strike out

I wish this was the upside down version of it to a maximum! Since Hairspray, I haven't seen any more movies where a fat girl gets the hot guy! Where's the damn equality?
shareWhat about Paranormal Activity? -.O
shareYeah, Rosario Dawson would never fück an ugly fatass like Kevin James in real life.

EVERYONE?
Kind of taking on the whole world yourself ain't ya?
I don't think so. I think Rosario is a good looking woman. Keven is a troll.

Um who is this everyone that you're speaking on? I have to also ask what dope you are smoking because just to make such a statement especially to compare a male and a female hmmmm....motives? Rosario is not ugly on any planet, in fact she is just as Kevin said in the movie made him look very average, subpar even.
Insert something profound here...and try not to fight about it..
Kevin James's real wife, Steffiana De La Cruz (Robin, the sister-in-law in the movie) is beautiful (prettier than Rosario Dawson IMO) so yeah....dude's swag > yours.

Or fat chick/hot guy.
shareLooks like someone can't handle the truth?
shareLooks like someone is an idiot.
shareGotta love this site. People whine about hot chicks getting with fat guys and would complain just as much if the lead females were anything but hot chicks.
shareThe fat guy/hot chick formula is nothing more than a way to appeal to the largest movie-going demographic there is: middle aged, average sized, Joe Schmoe white guys. If the main character is identifiable to the largest demographic possible, then it'll have wider appeal and make more money. Plus movies are vicarious entertainment, and having an Average Joe trying to get the hot girl will (in theory) have this giant demographic rooting for him.
This is the same reason movies with Asians and Native Americans always have the white male lead characters, like the Dragonball Z movie. A current example would be Million Dollar Arm, which features the sports agent as the main character instead of the Indian pitchers themselves.
derp
Someone who thinks it sucks that all most people judge someone solely and totally on is their looks? They were trying to show that a nice guy does not have to finish last. God, I hope some day that's true.
And Kevin's wife isn't exactly a bag of goo, you know.
I'm tired of kids who keep posting this same crap on every movie with this concept. Once you grow up, maybe past 25 looks don't matter half as much anymore. Money matters most and the older you get the more it matters. Status, "financial stability" and "does he have a future" are much more important, judging people only on looks is a young person thing. They probably count the least when trying to attract a lady once you get older, sure they count a little but not half as much as you would think. This is mainly with women not guys though. For guys looks matter quite a bit to some degree.
I've seen plenty of ugly fat guys with hot wives, plenty. All of them have good jobs and are financially stable. It's par for the course in our new materialistic world and it will only get worse as time moves on, sure it always mattered but it's definitely getting worse and worse. Can't really blame women though, they just want what they see on the TV.
THANK YOU! I'm 53, and I totally agree. And it's not just fat, or ugly guys that get dumped on. Anyone who doesn't look like he'd make the pages of SEVENTEEN magazine gets treated like crap.
I really wish I'd pay more attention to the nerdy guys when I was young instead of buying into that crap about cute guys. I was such an idiot then. It took me until I was 26 to finally see that, and I've been married to that guy 30 years today. We have a paid off mortgage and three paid off cars and we've never paid interest on a credit card. That means so much more than drop-dead gorgeous looks.
God.damn, that was brutally honest.

Well its easy you saying it now but it's nothing new. You the same as everyone else will always go for the people that look hot ESP when you're young maybe a little less when you are older due to finding personal taste or realising your "league".
If you are one of the rare sort that find the sweet maybe a little ugly "nerdy" fat kid and see him for what he is, a nice guy just maybe trying to fit in or get on with his day without hassle then that's great he is very much the guy to be a companion and see you for what you are. However we all know that wont happen people at a young age care more about how they them are perceived by others than how they see themselves and that's the problem.
However do the nerdy kid a favour Leave him alone Esp if you are a popular sexy girl. he has lessons and a brain to develop the last thing he needs is some stupid girl distracting him and getting him into situations the popular kids do, but if your the girl with the books keep him close.:P
I Don't Care For The Answer, I Only Wish To Understand The Question.
It's true though, I've seen several really huge fat guys with extremely hot chicks, girls that looked as if they were poured in their jeans, with nice sets and just the right amount of junk - I'm always dumbfounded with WTF!? But yeah it happens a lot - the guys must be really wealthy or something, or packin something BIG down below, I dunno. But I don't recall ever seeing fat chicks with hot guys, unless it's one of those where you just know the only reason the poor bastard is with them, is because they knocked'em up during a moment of stupidity! lol Oh and I have seen skinny mexican dudes with big fat women, I just assumed they were along for the ride...probably illegal too! lol
shareSometimes guys like that really spoil their women because they're so glad to have them.
shareIt provides an obsticle and creates tension in the film, that a guy who is generally considered "out of his league" with a woman, is in or trying to generate a relationship with the beautiful leading lady.
But, it does happen in real life quite frequently.
I'm 51, fat and poor so that means neither young women nor older women are interested in me. But what I do know is that I can fault Kevin James' character for being a fat, poor idiot who allows himself to be dumped repeatedly by the blonde and remains blind to Rosario Dawson who obviously at least likes him. Then again, we wouldn't have a Happy Madison movie.
Signatures annoy me.

This broke formula. It was Fat guy/TWO hot chicks.
