    To those who think Schumer is hot.

    You saw the Emmys right?

    IvaBigWun - you forgot to attach a picture of yourself to your last post, taken mid facial expression, so we can calculate your worth as a person and your ability to do whatever job it is you do, besides have an enormous penis.

    Frankly the only ugly things here are some of the posts in this thread. Talk about the film, please, not these childish, nasty comments about Schumer's appearance.

    Looks don't matter if you're funny. Lisa Lampanelli is no oil painting and look at Sarah Silverman and Aisling Bea ; no one comments on their looks because whatever 'funny enough' is they are funny enough.

    You know who is funny 'Lebron' James.

    The advice scene is amazing and the 'talk' with Amy.

    Well not amazing but funny as if they were out takes from a different better movie.

    Fk sake, who cares? What does it matter to you if someone finds her attractive anyway?

    Stevie Wonder.

    Why?


    She's white.

    What the hell was the message this moving was sending? That a woman shouldn't be having lots of sex, drinking, and smoking pot, but instead should be looking for the "perfect guy" (guess what: he's a doctor, original...), to settle down with and make babies or something.

    2 hours of a modern woman, living her life as a so-called "trainwreck", then tries to rape a 16-year old, punches him in the face instead, gets fired for doing so, and then has a change of heart, "grows as a person", etc., to become Mrs. Doctor. It even shows you her getting rid of all her alcohol and dancing around like a cheerleader, as most people do when they stop being drunks and turn their life around.

    Fantastic stuff.

    Did we watch the same movie? She wasn't looking for the doctor, or any long-term relationship at all. I thought it did a good job of not prescribing how she "should" live.

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.

    "Did we watch the same movie?" Has anybody ever responded to someone's critique of a film with that line before? Very original!

    I didn't say she was looking for the doctor or "any long-term relationship", I know she wasn't. I'm saying the fact the film showed her lifestyle changing and finding the "perfect guy", that the message was that should've been how she was living. Otherwise, what was wrong with the life she had? Modern woman and all that.

    The fact that he was doctor I found cliché.

    She is in the new Pirelli Calendar. She has a nice body in real life.

    Did you watch a weird version of that scene where the order of shots was shuffled or something? :confused:
