Girl Humor: Kristen Wiig Writes

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZ124pbRMJs]

I know there are some avid Kristen Wiig fans in the audience. Bridesmaids, coming out May 13th, stars her and was co-written by her. A good sign.

There have been rumors of female-appealing versions of the enormously successful male-orientated comedies that have lately shown up, for better or worse, every six months in theaters. Because we females are complicated, it’s taking awhile. What can they possibly find funny, tortured writers are asking themselves, if not jokes about pot/sex/performance/crashed cars/your lame friends??

This one looks like it might hit it, as I laughed at least three times during this trailer. The stamp of Judd Apatow-produced (Superbad, Pineapple Express) means it will safely include a few guy jokes, so the turnout in theaters shouldn’t look like another Sex in the City the Movie Part III.
