'He's Just Not That Into You' Trailer Debut
Filed under: Comedy, Romance, New Line, Movie Marketing, Trailers and Clips
Moviefone has debuted the trailer for He's Just Not That Into You, due in theatres October 24th (watch it above or over on Moviefone in HD). While it's a charming trailer, I cannot help but feel that every man in the world is actually really into one or more of these actresses (especially Scarlett Johansson) so it automatically loses credibility. Plus, it's a movie based on a dating guide. How will that work out? Happily ever after, I suspect.
The star power in this movie is pretty impressive, though! It was indelibly associated in my mind with Drew Barrymore (who I like; she is impossible not to). I had no idea it boasted the likes of Jennifer Connelly, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Aniston, Ginnifer Goodwin, Ben Affleck, and Justin Long. That speaks well for it, actually, as Connelly especially tends to do the more serious scripts. And I really want to see Affleck make a major comeback, so I hope his mere presence in a romantic comedy doesn't condemn him to Gigli level again. What do you think -- perfect date movie or too reminiscent of real life to be amusing? I think I am in the latter category, myself. The scene with Barrymore at the end of the trailer is like every interaction I have ever had with the opposite sex. Sad, but true.

I'm just not that into this movie.
It does sport a nice cast though. I get a feeling akin to "this doesn't look as bad as I would have expected."
However, I'm still steering clear.

I think it looks like a solid rom-com, and doesn't promise to be anything more than that. Good cast, could be interesting.

Looks like an episode of Friends with some Will & Grace 'tude thrown in. I can't wait to not go see this in the theaters.

Best final 20 seconds of a romcom trailer. Ever.

That was about a thousand times better then i expected it could ever be. Cmon. A movie based on a dating guide? Just didnt see it. Especially since I have spent the past few years telling the girls who Im friends how idiotic that damn book is.

That last snippet of the trailer did it for me, I'd actually like to see this. The cast is great (Jennifer Aniston aside), and Drew Barrymore never fails to make me laugh. I agree, I'd like to see Ben Afleck's career get another chance.

Like others are saying, it looks better than anything I would have imagined. I might see it. I don't think it'll be on par with other rom coms/chick flicks that rise above the genre tropes to give audiences something of substance (Friends with Money anyone?), but it's probably worth a look.
