AICN Exclusive Poster For Jay Chandrasekhar's THE BABYMAKERS!
Nordling here.
Jay Chandrasekhar's THE BABYMAKERS played South by Southwest this year, and I'm told brought the laughter big-time (I sadly missed it). Fanswill recognize members of the comedy troupe in the movie, and if you're at San Diego Comic-Con this week, you have a chance to see it for yourself at Horton Plaza 14, Saturday 7/14/12 at 8:00 PM, with Jay intro'ing the movie and doing a post-movie Q&A.
I love the Broken Lizard guys and the idea of a heist movie on a sperm bank sounds pretty funny. Plus, Olivia Munn, for you ATTACK OF THE SHOW! fans. Here's the exclusive poster (click to embiggen):
THE BABYMAKERS opens this August 3rd in theaters and VOD.

is everywhere now! WTF?

Sadly, that terrible pun is still better than anything in the trailer.

or took it anally daily as she is known to like it.

It would be uncharitable to say she got this through a, shall we say, personal connection. It may easily have been a cold commercial calculation in bringing in her nerd fan base, even if it isn't large.

Has Ms. Munn hypnotized Hollywood into believing she can act?
by openthepodbaydoorshal
What small roles I've seen her in (as in Slammin Salmon, which was baaad anyway), she couldn't act her way out of paper bag. So why IS she popping up in The Newsroom, Magic Mike, this, etc.???

Hey. Munn's the word. And I have the feeling she's already stolen PLENTY of sperm in her time...

She gets a lot of shit lately. I thought she was hot on AOTS. I only saw her 'act' on Chuck, I think. Would still do her in front of Hall H if she wore her Wonder Woman get up...or sweat pants. I'm not picky.

I would love to see those guys get back on track! The last two offerings were weak at best. It would be great to see a comedy from Jay on par with the laugh-fest the accomplished in Super Troopers (laughing right meow just thinking about it)!

who blew up too quick, causing everyone to take sides. I remember when she first started to become an actual celebrity, and everyone made a big deal about how hot she was. The aftermath of that is she earned a lot of vitriol. I have yet to talk to someone (or see someone post on the internet) who just kind of dislikes her. It pretty much seems like if you don't like her, you fucking HATE HER. For my money, I have no problem with her. She's pretty enough, and I remember her being fairly likable on AOTS. I haven't seen any of this horrible acting that everyone keeps talking about. If anything, in the trailer they put up for BABYMAKERS a few weeks ago, she seemed downplayed.

Super Troopers had about 3 laughs. Reno 911 was a lot better. Also, Broken Lizard's other movies have been awful

Olivia Munn didn't "blow up"...most of what she's done has been B movie stuff

Really liked Beerfest, Supertroopers and Club Dread. Silly but good fun. The boxing fish thing was ok too, what was that ?

with Jay Chandrasekhar in the director's seat. Though very funny, it often had the look of a TV movie.

Has to be one of the funniest movies from the past 10 years. Landfill is a hoot.

Broken Lizard makes National Lampoon's recent stuff look like Monty Python.

Reno 911 was shite. Super Troopers is one of the funniest movies ever made.

Average boobs and stomach in nude scene, nothing like her magazine or TV shots. Soderbergh also did the inflattering close up of her face. She had big cheek bones, made me think of Maggie Glynenhal. She was mediocre in her line delivery. Channing stole the show. He was tight, smooth and radiated sexuality. Best performance to date for him. Showed some emotion and range, nothing like his turd performances in Letters, GI Joe and the fight movie with Terence Howard.

A vial full of semen and the punchline, "The jizz is up" on a movie poster. Sure was a nice civilization we had once.

Man, If that ain't the most tasteless, unimaginative poster I've ever seen.
by Christian Sylvain
Subtlety is not a trait of marketing.

I guess if you're looking at it from the perspective of mainstream success, then no, she never really "blew up". What I meant was that there was a short period (six months maybe?) where every website, every magazine, and every nerd conversation seemed to mention her. She was everywhere, and everyone seemed to want to know what she was doing next. My overall point is that, when that sort of thing happens, any little annoyance or vague dislike of a person tends to get turned into a full-on despisal. And that certainly happened in this case.
-
She blew Brett Ratner instead. Ba-dump-dump!
