Despite having zero interest in seeing it when it was first coming out (it had a terrible trailer - seriously http://youtu.be/5GbWk--Cv0Q) it's become one of my go-to Christmas films to watch with my family around the holidays. Just Friends is one of those great films set at Christmas but that aren't necessarily Christmas films (Die Hard is another). So you could watch it pretty much anytime. Ryan Reynolds is really "on" in the film and even Chris Klein is funny. I haven't given up faith in Reynolds. I'm holding out for that Deadpool movie but then he seriously needs to STOP MAKING COMIC FILMS. And get back to some good comedies or even stuff like "Adventureland".<br /><br />One of my favorite aspects of the film is Reynolds' and Maquette's chemistry so I'm right there with ya on this scene. The film did a good job of the broad comedy/rivalry but they actually took the time to make them seem like brothers (I love the scene where Maquette gives Reynolds a cookie (might have been the other way around) and they tell each other they love each other).<br /><br />Finally, I CANNOT watch this film and not watch the blooper real immediately thereafter. In fact, here it is: http://youtu.be/aBVhMFja_AA<br /><br />The little kid mysteriously calling Reynolds "Haitian" (?) is one of my favorite things ever.<br /><br />Thanks for the scene, Lindsay!<br />Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394045103473759585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7836370962531240642.post-8930476650094122762013-12-07T12:38:19.584-05:002013-12-07T12:38:19.584-05:00Yes!

Great Friday scene! :)Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00287429151542133314noreply@blogger.com
