I'm Just Not That Into This New Trailer

Okay, maybe I'm being a bit tough on the film and the trailer. After all, it seems every few years we need one of these films -- the kind that reminds us how hard it is to connect and communicate with the opposite sex. Or do we? Maybe it's the star-studded cast that's turning me off, then, or maybe it's just that I feel like we've been down this road time and time again; relationships are tough, we know, and they're painful, unfortunately -- so does throwing in a blackberry joke and a few lines of dialogue about MySpace make it all seem fresher?
Anyway, there's a new trailer out for the rom-com He's Just Not That Into You (in theaters February 6), which itself is based on a book full of relationship advice and not a real, solid story -- and so what you get is pretty much what you see in this trailer: A mish-mosh of different romantic situations and people (ie: pretty famous faces) looking for advice from other famous faces. "Should I call? When should I call him back?" I don't know, didn't we decide this, like, 37 movies ago? Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Justin Long and Scarlett Johansson star. Check out the trailer below, and let me know if I'm being too rough on this one.

Is it supposed to be a comedy? If so, I am missing the joke.
"This guy Myspaced me..." was enough to tell me that I never need to see this, no matter how many actors they pay to be in it.
Shame.

You are too harsh! It doesn't look like a comedy to me, but a dramedy! I don't know about Connelly. She may just be trying something new. I'd have to see it before I pass judgement on it or them. It looks great to me! I'll be there.

"Ben Affleck, Jennifer Aniston, Drew Barrymore, Justin Long and Scarlett Johansson star."
Come on Erik, how dare you leave out Jennifer Connelly.
I DEMAND an edit to the story to fix that omission!

I'd like inform you that Scarlett Johansson (actress)actually is a clone from original person,who has nothing with acting career.Clone was created illegally using stolen biomaterial.Original Scarlett Galabekian last name is nice, CHRISTIAN young lady.I'll tell more,those clones(it's not only 1)made in GERMANY-world leader manufacturer of humans clones,it's in Ludwigshafen am Rhein,Rhineland-Palatinate,Mr.Helmut Kohl home town.You can't even imaging the scale of the cloning activity.But warning,H.Kohl staff strictly controlling their clones spreading around the world,they're NAZI type disciplined and mind controlled,be careful get close with clones you will be controlled too.Original family didn't authorize any activity with stolen biomaterials,no matter what form it was created in,it's all need to be back to original family control in Cedars-Sinai MedicalCenter in LA.Controlling clones is US military operation.Original Scarlett never was engaged,by the way

I'd like to see Serge's movie!
The trailer looks like another rom-com, like all the rest. And I think they waited too long to get this out - the book is so 2005.
That said, this book has been the bane of every nice guy's existence. Girls, now expecting all guys to be jerks after reading this book, yell "He's not that into me" every time I don't call back right away. So I'm boycotting this film. Although Scarlett, clone or not, is always worth a trip to the cinema!

Well, I like the trailer and will go see it. what is wrong with a
movie without violence and just light entertainment. Good people in this movie. I like all of them and sometimes a
"no brainer" is good.
