Great Performance by Adrianne Palicki
Hot as hell and superb acting, great comic timing. She stole the show!
shareTotally agree... She was very funny. Especially the scene after the credits.
"Nobody thinks it can happen to them... You too can get a PhD... Please, get tested... Thank you."
Why don't you quote all the other funny lines too? And while you're at it, an outline of the script might be helpful. It would certainly save all that time sitting and watching the film.
Idiot.

You tell me. You seem to be following me around like a little doggy, so you'd probably have some insight.
shareI think the idiot in this case is the guy reading a chat board about a movie he did not see.
If your looking for spoilerless insight about a movie just read the reviews.
Reading the boards is handing down the stick to get beaten with.
I agree with the OP Adrianne Palicki were great in this. I wish she gets more interesting (or at least from better productions) parts out of this movie. Because I sure would like to see her again.
Maybe I've been blinded by the clichéness of the other characters but I found that both the writing and the performance of Adrianne Palicki gave the blond bimbo stereotype a somehow fresh and exotic twist.
And since when a movie with Carla Gugino, Adrianne Palicki and Emmanuelle Chriqui would not worth sitting through it?
First, I have seen the film. I was commenting on the clown who quite unnecessarily gave details of what happened after the credits rolled.
The OP likes AP and so do you, and that's fine. But it was thoughtless behaviour to start quoting lines from the film.
This whole habit of the studios down to the average viewer, of giving things away is intensely irritating. Only small chldren and morons need to be led by the hand like this.
I've seen a lot of people agreeing that trailers increasingly give away the entire plot for reasons unknown to me. It should be perfectly possible to read these boards and avoid anything covered by a 'spoiler' notice if you haven't seen the film. Anything else is written by and for those people who read the last page of a novel first.
IMDb message boards are a whole different kettle of fish from movie trailers. A trailer's raison d'etre is to entice people who've not seen the film, so it's understandably frustrating when it spoils the same film it's advertising. But IMDb boards, by established practice, are a place for moviegoers to discuss films they've seen. If you make the mistake more than once of perusing the board before seeing the film, then you have no cause for complaint.
And the offence which you deemed idiotic, quoting one punchline from a film full of comedic moments, is so innocuous as to be laughable.
You forgot, or in your self-righteousness didn't bother, to add one thing: In my opinion. You'll find as many people on these boards agreeing with me as not.
"He who talks loud, saying nothing." Says it all, really. All I'm asking for is a basic courtesy, but that's a commodity in short supply here. How much effort does it take to put a comment under a spoiler notice?
There are many reasons for people to check out a board before they see a film, and one of the is the unreliability of trailers. More and more I see people complaining that the film they saw had a different focus than they expected from the trailer.
It should be - and is - usually possible to discuss films without going into chapter and verse about specifics. But if people want to do that then, as I said, it's a basic courtesy to warn them in advance.
Or perhaps the concept of courtesy is alien to you?
You complain about trailers giving too much away but then say you should be able to come to these boards to find out more about a film than can be gleaned from the trailer?
Your contention is that you should be able to come to these boards "to discuss films without going into chapter and verse about specifics," and thus you call someone an idiot merely for quoting one line from a throwaway scene after the credits?
After calling someone an idiot you wonder if I'm the one who doesn't understand the concept of courtesy?
I'm afraid your logic doesn't stand scrutiny.
The person to whom my comment was addressed (who wasn't, remember, yourself) is an idiot for his behaviour.
You want an example of neutral comment? Check out the topic title. And then see what it descended to.
I've had it with you; an idiot who is a defender of other idiots gets the brown raspberry from me. Just run along and play with your other rude chums because I've had enough of you.
After sampling the posts in your comment history I find it quite ironic that you should call anyone rude, given your apparent penchant for insults, personal attacks, and unconstrained umbrage. So if you, who seems to thrive on online conflict, have had enough of me I can only conclude that you realize your bluster is no match against cold reason. And please don't retreat behind the specious argument that your comment was not addressed to me. Your original comment was an attack on someone whose comment was addressed to the OP, not to you.
Your behaviour on these boards is evocative of people who seek to feel good about themselves by belittling others. You would be better served by seeking your self-esteem from within, instead. Self-awareness can build maturity and a sense of self-worth. This is not an attack, it's meant to be helpful (albeit unsolicited) advice from someone who's been there. Do with it what you will.
Hey, hogfart-1,
on this movie's IMDB page, in the "did you know" section, there is an area for "quotes", which shows one quote from the movie, and then a link to see more, and when I came on to here, that quote was RIGHT ON THE MAIN PAGE, so anyone coming to look here would have seen it...
Your first post, I see. Something tells me that with your attitude you won't be be around for too many more.
