Hollywood Feminism: Eat Pray Love … Vomit Rinse Repeat
BigHollywood.com ^ | 9/17/2010 | Ann McElhinney

I saw Eat Pray Love over the weekend. I can’t remember the last film I walked out of but I certainly wanted to walk out of this one. I stayed because I want to know what is going in the world. I know now and it’s not good.

The cinema was half full, almost all were women.

Sounds like it was half empty ... are you sure it was half full?

Speaking as an engineer: It was twice as large as it needed to be.

I have gotten to the point where on the line at the super market I see all the magazines with Hollywood types and I usually ask my wife; “Who is that on the cover, and why should I be interested in their life?” They have their day and it eventually comes to an end as they age.

I read the book.

After the first chapter I renamed it "Whine, Moan and Complain" because I swear that was all the woman did.

What a unpleasant person.

Needless to say I have no interest in seeing the movie.

Please don’t say “even Tom Cruise”. He’s a wonderful actor.

I'm suprised it wasn't “Eat, Pray, Have an Abortion”. It is Hollywood after all.

I didn’t see Under the Tuscan Sun because I read in reviews that they had completely changed the story from the one of a couple buying the old run-down home and renovating it to one of those “bitter single girl on the make” stories that pack the theaters. The book was more about the couple’s relationship with the house and how it taught them to live in a more aware and calm state from their frenetic pace in New York City.

one time Tom Cruise played the young cocky guy with an annoying S### eating grin, now that showed his range as an actor!!

naw, the “working title” was really

“Eat, Play, and Love Yourself”

but the author’s publisher decided that the narcissism was a bit too overwhelming

Ponygirl, by not seeing Under the Tuscan Sun, you didn’t miss a thing. I almost walked out when they did the gratuitous and obligatory, “Gay Away” travel group scene which was unneeded, came out of left field, detracted and added nothing to the movie.

Tom Cruise rocked as the old agent in Tropic Thunder, the only thing of his I ever liked

When single women travel far away they are looking (subconsciously) to get schtupped by some exotic local or a fellow tourist. You don’t need this movie to figure that out

“Who is that on the cover, and why should I be interested in their life?”

If the magazine in question is "O," it would be "Oprah" on the cover. Her life deserves no attention whatsoever.
