he's just not that into you...

There has been a lot of excitement brewing about the upcoming movie "He's Just Not That Into You" and I have to admit, I am definitely excited for it! Not only is there an outstanding cast, but the whole idea just seems honest and very much needed. 

Over the past few years, newer technology makes it THAT much harder for a relationship to begin. Everyone is unsure of the proper protocol to responding to a text, IM, phone call, etc. Decades ago, everything seemed much easier because there were basically no forms of communication other than the telephone or actual face-to-face interactions. Nowadays, everyone is forced to read BETWEEN THE LINES, forcing an inevitable game to take place. Since the 'messagee' is reading between the lines, it forces the 'messenger' to write in a coded language. I know for a fact that every teenager has lived through this. Not only have I been victim to the absurd "what does that mean?!" question, but so have all of my friends, and probably the rest of the world.

I am so happy that there is finally a straight-forward response to the crazy game we all live as a result of the advances in technology. I cannot wait to see this movie, which comes out on February 6th! It is sure to address and probably 'make fun' of everything young people go through these days...

Check out the preview :)

  2. I honestly haven't heard that much about the movie, other than the fact that Jennifer Aniston is in it. I agree with everything you say, though. It's bad enough that the awkward beginning phase of potential relationships has been full of cryptic messages since before we were born! Now, add technology to the mix and its just that much harder to read someone. He's Just Not That Into You is a good wake up call for girls who choose to hold on despite a guy's misleading games. Am I correct in assuming the message of this movie is for girls? Haha. Thanks for enlightening me about this movie and about tv shows and...ugh, Miley Cyrus (sorry). Apparently I live under a rock. Love you! -Kristin

  3. I can't wait to see this movie. I have read the book before and I always tell all my friends about it. I do have to say I don't think that the movie is going to be that great. I mean I can't wait to see if because I LOVE Jennifer Anniston, but just from the previews I think the movie is going to be a bust. So many famous actors in it. I hope that I am wrong when I see it. I already have a date with my girlfriends to go and see it.
