why did anna faris do this film for nothing


The film portrays anna faris in a bad way.

It's not like she died in the film.

and the whole world has to answer right now just to tell you once again. Who's Bad?

Neil Patrick Harris portrayed himself but in a bad way in the Harold and Kumar trilogy.
He was banging hookers and doing cocaine and staling cars and eating magic mushrooms.
If anything my reaction to Anna Faris in Keanu was "haha she is doing an NPH in this movie!"
It was my favorite part of the movie actually.

Not to mention NPH being in H&K Go to White Castle made his popularity explode.
I can see why Anna Faris did it.

Have you ever noticed that the people who say "DC is for adults and Marvel is for kids", are kids?

Probably cause she sucks a could use the exposure..?

You must have missed the end of the movie where it said she was working for the police and completely fine and healthy. She was essentially an undercover cop helping to take down drug dealers. Not sure how you think that puts her in a bad light.

reply

That makes more sense.

> She was essentially an undercover cop helping to take down drug dealers.

You know, with that in mind, her whole scene makes no sense. In the house, you had Anna, three undercover cops, and our two boys. And the undercover cops all knew that the boys were just innocent dupes. There was no reason to play out the scene with blood and guts and shooting and such. They could have gone in, made the deal, and left. There was no one to impress.

No, Anna Farris and her crew knew Hi-C was an undercover cop, but they had no idea about Clarence and Rell - even Hi-C thought at that time that those 2 men were the Allentown bros. Also Rell was the only one in the house, Clarence was waiting outside.

The shootout was a test to see if Rell would resort to joining in on murder, giving him an opportunity to break more laws, so Hi-C can bust him right then or even shoot him. But that never happened.

So she didn't die when Hi C shot her numerous times??

reply

She seems like a pretty cool person in real life and doesn't take herself too seriously. That was one a few parts I thought was funny.

reply

Also to the few above, they were obviously squibs because the other people that got shot were police officers. I even thought to myself that those shots Anna took the chest looked really fake.

reply

It's called a cameo, and I guess they considered the bad portrayal covered by saying she was working for the cops the whole time.

Either way, this was the worst comedy I've seen since Ted.
