That's just plain mean and unnecessary. You could have chosen many paths to write about Ms. Portman, and you chose to be petty.

what the hell is that movie even about?

and why is that one tree hill guy in a movie with an otherwise impressive ensemble cast?

You're right, Cord. Unfortunately, I don't feel there's a comparable male counterpart.

Natalie Portman is beautiful in so many ways–her physical beauty being the strand most readily captured when seeing a MOVIE.

Lisa, get some reading comprehension skills!!

Anyway, this movie looks cute, kinda trying to be Amelie a bit, but whatever, and maybe it's totally different. I didn't notice anyone in the trailer from One Tree Hill.

lisa, how the hell is that "petty"?? i totally know what you mean, cord, and i don't know why people seem offended by it….

the movie does look pretty good, though

CDD: My reading comprehension is probably better than yours. I read for at least an hour every day, and I've preferred reading over any other activity since I was in second grade. Try testing your own comprehension by reading The Silmarillion. I've only met 2 other people in my life who read the whole book, much less got past the first chapter.

Perhaps what you didn't understand is that I think it's mean to say that an average woman would look like a clumsy nag compared to Natalie Portman. I agree that she's beautiful, but to say that a normal date feels like a letdown after seeing her face on screen for an hour is harsh. If you don't agree with me, fine.

CDD: There's a generic white blond dude who i thought was that chad michael whatever from OTH. I may be wrong though since i've never watched the show. that is the show he's on, no?

p.s. it's the young guy who isn't frodo.

i agree with lisa. this isn't some fanboy site. it used to be written by a woman, and has many female readers, and i can get that sort of writing and commentary on other sites, but it is out of place here.

and that movie looks like it sucks ass. can we stop with the multiple storylines all tying together bullshit?

I thought the young guy was the dude from the Notebook.

This movie has quite an expansive and impressive cast. When I was young I used to HATE Gerard Depardu because he was in every movie our French teacher made us watch. Now I sort of love him.

I don't know if my best boy would be depressed that he went home with me and not Portman, but I know that I am always depressed I am not her. Damn her good genes!

Let's hope none of your dates read your site, Cord. ;)

Anytime my fiance and I watch a movie with Natalie Portman, I find myself with a total girl-crush on her and simultaneously feel like a clumsy nag. But it's OK, because I'm pretty sure my fiance doesn't even notice I'm still in the room when she's onscreen.

Wow, Lisa, an hour a day? We are all so impressed. You keep up the good work earning those Book-It pizza gift certificates, sweetie!

Marie- my sentiments exactly! I really doubt reading a collection of LOTR short stories makes one qualified to bash other people's opinions (that's the Silmarillion, folks).

And Lisa, FYI, it's spelled Gerard Depardieu, not Depardu. Perhaps you should go read up on him????

Now can we please get back to bashing celebs?

I wasn't bashing anyone's opinions except Cord's. CDD was bashing mine, and so I suggested that he read a book that most find to be hard to comprehend since that was how he/she attacked me. I will change my suggestion to The Brothers Karamazov. Does that make you happy? Probably not.

I'm not saying anyone should be impressed by the fact that I read for at least an hour a day (have no idea what that pizza reference was, btw). Someone who does read that much, however, is not likely to have low reading comprehension. That was my point. Reading is my favorite pastime, so forgive me if I'm insulted when someone insults my comprehension.

Miss Adequite, you've got the wrong Lisa regarding the Gerard misspelling. That was Lisa #1.

OK, so I used forms of the word "insult" twice in one sentence. Go ahead, attack me on that too. I know you want to.

Be Adequite! you seriously hurt my feelings. I can sort of (but no so much b/c end of my post is opposite my doppleganger's) understand the mistake, but ouch. I guess I need a new name: Lisa's evil twin?Lisa with a goatee? Ms. Pickles?

How about smartLisa?
Sorry for the mistake but yes it was confusing…

Hey, Lisa #1, you can be Lisa's evil twin if you want, but, that could get confusing down the road too! : )

If we were food I'd be BBQ Ribs and Natile Portman would be escargot, and I know my boyfriend would go for the BBQ ribs every time. I'm a clumsy (good looking) nag, but so is my boyfriend's mom, so I'm ideal. Sometimes familiarity is better than what is applauded as being the best.

Natalie Portman is pretty damn hot though, and the movie looks good.

This blog just sux since Molly, left. I wonder what the avg age is of these posters
that 'support' poor little baby, Cord. Poor Cord, I hope that you choose to see the movie alone, this way you won't be forced to waste your money on a steak for a nag, okay?

I suggest you save your money, and go alone, or if you can find a friend, (I do wish you luck), go with them.

NotAnyLisa, I'm 25, if that helps. Go read the comments on some of the other gossip sites if you think this one "sux." They make Lisa Karamazov look like Albert Einstein.

I think I like Ms. Pickles or maybe Lisa Pickles? L. Pickles?

P.S. I love this site, but im new to it - who is molly, who is cord… there is no infor in the about us section.

Don't worry "NotLisa" I don't think Cord would invite you to see the movie anyways-

-Another 25+ college educated reader

Let's get down to brass tacks here, people. There are entirely too many names with "Lisa" in them. I, for one, am shocked and appaled. So please, for the children, stop the insanity.

(sidenote: you know I am totally going to troll and create like 5 names with "Lisa" in them, then argue with myself.)

I'm 24!

re: April

Briefly, Molly is the former editor (as in, "Mollygood") but she left and went to Popsugar, and Cord is the new editor here. Some commenters like him, while others still can't seem to get over Molly's leaving so they complain loudly about how much it sucks here since Molly left.

This old hag (but not a clumsy nag) LOVES Cord.

For a while I thought Cord was short for Cordelia. Sometimes, I still think of him that way.

The addition of Someone Haiku (which I recelty started calling Haiku This, Motherfucker!, for no apparent reason), has been glorious. Also, The p33n is not necessarily a drawback - it is a good way to discount Cord when you don't agree. "That is exaclty what someone with a penis would say, duh!"

At 27, am I really the elder statesman?

Oh no…I bet I really am the oldest one. 33 years young. Does this site offer a senior discount?

why are there never women bloggers?

33 and counting here.

I have a love hate relationship with Cord…I often love his wit and snark but the social commentary from a male's perspective called MOLLYgood is kinda lacking.
He often will piss me off with his holier than thou attitude but hey, i'm not perfect either.

Cord you're a prick about this, but I love you all the same.

ps- from all the ladies here i think we can safely say
NEVER REFER TO YOUR DATE AS A NAG, EVER!
FUCK IT, NEVER COMPARE YOUR DATE TO NATALIE PORTMAN!!!

What's the music playing in the Trailer? Anyone know?

Sorry if my post came off bitchy, just the way you wrote it seemed like you were all sad over Natalie Portman getting trashed and she wasn't.

Christ, Lisa #1 (I think you should go with pig latin and become "isalay"), I started crying I laughed so hard on your new name for Someone Haiku.

LOL. I'm still giggling.
