Friends with Benefits. WTF didn't we just see this movie 6 months ago?

I know Hollywood has been creatively bankrupt for quite sometime but is the studio behind this really that brain damaged?

Reminds me of when Paul Blart: Mall Cop and Observe and Report came out around the exact same time with similar plots as well. Both of those movies got shit for it I think.
 
I hate when they release films with exactly the same plot and it makes ya think that - personally Hangover 2 was same for me - same plot - same people - same ending!
 
Hollywood gets creative scripts all the time. They're sent in by people trying to start in the industry. The problem is that they feel it's hard to sell the public on a new movie/franchise so they go with the tried and true money makers, sequels and remakes. You might see an original idea maybe twice a year and they're usually made by a tried and true director. It's about making money!

The title of this thread implies that people actually saw that Kutcher/Portman movie when it came out...

:dunno:

I was just saying this to someone a few days ago...Friends with benefits has the exact same plot as that Ashton Kutcher/Natalie Portman movie.

I noticed that! They make the same romantic plots, they either make crappy remakes or they just do the same shit over and over, they have to dumb down movies for the American Public these days, its sad!

I know I said the same thing too the other day..I get so tired of replays..LOL..unless its porn
 
all movies these days are the just recycled crap.

RIP creativity, we hardly knew ye.
Wrong. Unless you limit yourself to mainstream Hollywood cinema. :dunno:

Just stop going to the movies.

The people of Hollywood make far too much money for doing nothing.
Exactly. People moan about all these shit Hollywood movies yet still queue up to watch Transformers 8 or Pirates of the Caribbean 14!! Stop doing it! It only encourages them!!!
 
Another thing that made me chuckle is that both movies have three word titles along with the same plot.
 
i had noticed it's marked similarity to no strings attached...oddly enough i'll not be seeing either movie...my favorite is still death at a funeral it came out in 2007 and was in u.s. theaters then in 2010 they remade it...but black instead of british

just another vehicle to try and force Justin timberlake as a talent down our throats. He is a jack of many trades, master of none. Yet, he makes the women swoon for some reason and for that, he gets opportunity after opportunity.
 
You know it's bad when they not only copy things that were great and try to milk them for all they are worth, but when they are starting to copy things that were crap in the first place.
