I had the pleasure of seeing this billboard on the side of a bus on the way to work this morning. Now, at first I was just taken aback by McDreamy's smooth transition back into movies. Dude is the Roy McEvoy of 80's heartthrobs. Then I realized the pun in the title of this (soon to be) critically panned romantic comedy is the inverse of another critically panned romantic comedy. To be fair, Maid In Manhattan's by the numbers trailer made me laugh plenty but J.Lo laughed last: it grossed $174 million worldwide.
So now, I propose a feud. A washed up singer turned actress versus a washed up movie star turned TV star trying to break back into movies. It's going to be a good one. I'll make sure to keep the Siblog readers updated with statistics. J.Lo nailed down a cool $18 million during MIM's opening weekend. Come May 2, we will see who comes out on top. In bizarre writing credit news: John Hughes wrote Maid in Manhattan under a pseudonym. Same goes for Drill Bit Taylor. Furthermore, in John Hughes unfortunate career move news: the last movie he directed was Jim Belushi's magnum opus Curly Sue.

Speaking of Mcdreamy. For the longest time I wished they would remake Loverboy. Turned out they did and its called "Big Sausage Pizza". Only Patrick Dempsey isn't in it, and its not rated PG-13. And I like it better now that it stars Eve Lawrence, Memphis Monroe and Vicky Vette instead of Kirstie Alley
By the way, I congratulate J-Lo for realizing that popping out kids and letting them be photographed is more lucrative than having an actual skill. Its also good to know anyone can be considered respectable once they have kids. Even if they were married 3 times and engaged to 2 other men in a 9 year span.
Once a skank always a skank, thats what I say.
P.S. Love the Siblog experience
