"Who are you, Joey Tribbiani?"

Biff isn't anywhere near as aware as Joey was.

This isn't like they cut the gay love story from the trailers for BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN.

This is a February release, chick flick starring everyone who's worked in the last five years. The only person missing is Sandra Bullock.

Why are we even discussing this? I think this whole thread is silly.

Is there anyone who ISN'T in this movie? I just saw Patrick Dempsey in a commercial. Eric Dane is in it. McDreamy and McSteamy. Fun.


Pretty pretty please don't you ever ever feel like you're less than f**ckin' perfect!

I got the idea that the Julia Roberts and Bradley Cooper characters were a couple from the trailer.

I think thats it sad that the company feels like it has to hide it to get butts in the seats because of the way a lot of society views homosexuality, if that is the reason they did it. Honestly the people that are going to see this in the first place probably aren't that homophobic to begin with. But of course they could have not showed it because it was going to be a reveal of the movie.

Oh my Lord, the movie hasn't even OPENED yet, people! Maybe the gay storyline is a "big reveal" at the end and that's why it's not in the trailer. They're not going to show a dead Bruce Willis in the trailer for SIXTH SENSE, either if it's going to give away the ending so how about waiting until next week to get your pretty pink panties all twisted up over this?

(Oh, and as for Julia Roberts and Cooper appearing as being "together" in the trailer, I don't know what you're smoking to see that. They look like nothing but friends to me in that clip)

THE SIXTH SENSE is well over 10 years old. If you haven't gotten around to it by now, you cannot expect someone to care about ruining the ending. This is a general 'you', not you specifically, Erik.

It's like having to post a spoiler alert that Rosebud was the sled.

By the way, I was being totally sarcastic. I don't give a flying f**k about this celluloid pudding. If I wanna see hot guys get it on, I'll watch porn.

I lived in hope of that.

But you should have heard the verbal lashing I once got for telling mentioning the end of PRESUMED INNOCENT a full decade after the movie came out.

It is not my responsibility to coddle your laziness, bitches!!!

Oh...and the wife did it.

For those of you wondering...

SPOILER ALERT

"Maybe the gay storyline is a "big reveal" at the end and that's why it's not in the trailer."

That's exactly right; I caught a screening of it this evening. Throughout the whole film, Julia Roberts and Bradley Cooper are played up as possible love interests. It isn't until the final moments of the film when we see Bradley Cooper snuggling up to Eric Dane that his sexuality is revealed. The audience at my screening were unaware and the moment was met with a vocal "aha!"

The movie itself is pretty terrible. Typical romantic cliches, yes, but they're made worse by the fact that the cliches are repeated with nearly every couple (all 124 of them). Characters and storylines are forgotten easily and not a single couple has a lick of chemistry.
