Trailer for DL Icon Chrissy Metz new film has dropped.

It's on wide screen, I imagine.

Don't mention chops in front of her...

She needs to eat less chops. Much less...

That looks like the type of sappy garbage I avoid at all costs.

....

Watching that pail of blubber blubber about her son makes me yearn for the comforting arms of Jesus to wrap themselves around me. Why are these Christian movies SO bad?

I knew this was a niche film, either about a fattie or an Xtian film. Like that shitty movie Latifah and Jen Garner did.

So I'm guessing the real mom is the grey haired hambeast pictured at the bottom here. I knew she had to be bad if Metz was playing her, she's way less attractive than Metz.

It's a Jesus movie, probably the only work the hog can get. At least while she's waiting to fill her dream position, human garbage disposal. She'll be fed heaping plates full of leftovers all day long, hog heaven!

From the US Christians who forget gluttony is a sin.

It's about a woman whose obesity makes her break through the floor and die?

Why is it showcasing her eating chips?

How the hell did Topher Grace go from working for Spike Lee to this in one year? Did he lose a bet?

Wasn't it the script, R12, but no member of the crew dared remove them from her.

Next up for Chrissy: the title role in "The Karen Carpenter Story."

It's the first film directed by former actress Roxann Dawson (who was a regular on Star Trek Voyager).

Dawson is a respected tv director who mainly directs prestige shows, so I'm not sure how her first film ended up being a glorified Lifetime original. I'm guessing she signed on because the film was guaranteed a wide release.

Sorry, I don't think her acting is as good as everyone says.

Highlights!

Peak frau!

I don't know who should be more offended; Chrissy or the real life chick. The role basically is just a fat jesus freak, it's an embarrassingly shallow character.

Do I smell Oscar?!

No, R21, that smell is sweat, grease, and her arse.

[quote]Do I smell Oscar?!

Yeah, Oscar Meyer.

Well, something stinks.

Was the trailer a double-wide?

If she can sing, Chrissy would be great in the Mamas and Papas biopic Michelle Phillips is working on. She'd only have to lose a couple hundred pounds to play Cass.

....

I bet her career will, from her show's cancellation until she keels over, consist of this brand of frau Xtian movies.

If she's lucky she might get to play a plus-size Hallmark movie heroine.

God, this looks terrible. Straight to DVD.

Oh, and yes. Let's all believe she could get a hot husband like Josh Lucas.

She probably could. I'm constantly shocked by how many fat, unappealing women have managed to land hot guys.

'Breakthrough' -- is that a reference to when her character sits on a flimsy chair?

Looks amazing!

Can't wait to see it!

Sorry, Sue. People in Santa Fe have far better taste.

This mess would definitely make Patsy in Provo damp "down there"

There must be a god if this whale is now getting lead roles in movies.

R36 But can we really call this a "movie" or a Christian propaganda piece that'll be shown in the church basement during coffee and donut time after mass?

Inspired by R5

It's every fat fraus fantasy, morbidly obese grotesque woman, which is a sin since Gluttony is listed in the Teen Deadly Sins, has gorgeous vhot husband who lives her unconditionally

I just puked

Remember, boys, homosexuality is a sin.

Gluttony? What? Never heard of it.

R37 Christian films have been getting major releases and making a lot of money. Look are Gods Not Dead, War Room, Fireproof, and I Can Only Imagine.

They all made huge profits.

Okay I’m getting sick of gays thinking they’re above everyone.

Being a Christian is being a Human like everyone else. They are sinful. They are flesh like everyone. The difference is their FAITH and their goals to be more Christ like.

You all sit around throwing the word religion around when not all Christians follow organizer religion. For some it’s a personal faith and spirituality. They don’t follow a religion though. And as someone who grew up in a Christian home and put in Christian school, not all are hateful to gays. Learn the word hate. Just cause someone disagrees with certain things does not mean they HATE you or wish harm on you.

My stepdad has his opinions but he will tell you he hates those people that beat up or kill gay people and finds that disgusting.

He could care less about what you do, until many gays started pushing this on kids. Keep sexuality out of kids stuff. Let them think about stuff like that when they’re older, but they don’t need ANY sexuality in their tv shows and movies.

I agree and I’m bi.

Thank God it wasn't Chrissy's character who stood on the ice. She could break through the Arctic Iceshelf.

R37 it will be shown on huge screens in the auditoriums of the mega-churches. Evangelical churches are big business, that’s where the money is.

Josh Lucas has actually gained some weight too. Of course, anyone could look skinny next to Chrissy though.

If she could just lose those pesky last few hundred pounds.

Josh Lucas didn't exactly become the big star he was being touted to be.

He look paunchy and mooby in the trailer.

The craft services crew must've worked overtime on this one.

My biggest issue is why is the son of Chrissy Metz and Josh Lucas brown skinned? I hate that they keep doing this

Hereditary drove me nuts.

Has Josh Lucas ever even had a DL thread? Chrissy threads fill up like her plate at an all you can eat buffet.

Loved her in Who Ate Gilbert Grape?

Her voice sounds fat.

I swear some frau will be along soon to bully us and tell us she's "inspiring".

SHRIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

R42 Congratulations on your bisexuality and uncanny ability to still be an obnoxious Christian.

I could give a crap what anyone's religion's beliefs are. But I do get pissed off when I see shit movies like this that promote the bogus theory that prayer and faith in God can bring someone back from the dead.

No, it wasn't the prayers. It was good first responders, it was good doctors, it was the fact that the kid was young and strong and his body was able to fight back and overcome the odds.

If prayer was the answer, God would've made sure the stupid kid didn't fall through the ice in the first place.

Poor Josh Lucas. First he has to play second fiddle to DL fave Deb Messing in her flop series, and now this.

I bet they had to clear the set at least once when Chrissy let out one of her Gartenesque farts.

Josh is fortunate to be working with such a huge talent.

Yes, a huge, huge talent.

R61

Too bad Cinerama no longer exists.

The real kid was adopted from Guatemala.

Who wants to spend part of their Christmas vacation on pins and needles watching a kid trapped under ice? It's Mary Poppins for me!

R43, It would have been a much more delicious movie had it been Chrissy trapped under the ice. It's even a fun movie in my head to imagine: flail, flail, sink, flail, flail.

R29 It's actually scheduled for a wide theatrical release. It's being distributed by Fox.

R66 It'll last a week and be on Netflix within 90 days.

R65, bonne idée... Chrissy under ice would make a great movie!

R63 the crossed beams create the inverted pentagram, the sign of Lucifer!

These Christian movies always make bank in the south. I always see buses and buses filled with little old church ladies pouring out of them, going to the movies for the first time in 30 years to see these pieces of shit.

I don't know why they're always so fucking awful, though. They're never very cinematic, they're always preachy and saccharine sweet...awful!

Schmaltzy BS film that looks like its been dusted off the shelves at some studio. I would probably watch on some cable network on a slow Sunday and cry once or twice while mocking it too ha. forgot about Josh Lucas

The movie looks like shit. It was a struggle to make it through the trailer, I cant fathom the pain of watching the whole thing.

I wonder if the kid has severe brain damage after thawing out. I remember seeing several of these cases on daytime talk shows in the 80s where kids fell through ice and were in stasis for 20 + minutes. They were always a little off afterwards.

She has a beautiful face

...and a great personality.

A little off is okay r72, it beats being Jahi McMath. I guess if you have to code, do it in a frozen area where your body is totally slowed down and can't kill brain cells quickly. Never code in a desert!

Such sexy curves!

They lost me when they tried to make me believe she climbed up into the bleachers and sat there.

What R4 said. What utter manipulative, vapid trash.

Has she ever seen her own pussy?

R67 A lot of these shitty Christian movies stick around for weeks and have low week-to-week drops. It could end up another God's Not Dead, Heaven is Real, Miracles from Heaven, The Shack etc. Either way, these movies cost so little that it's really not a risky venture to make them.

Also, the movie is being released by Fox and not one of the smaller distributors that sometimes release Christian movies. That means a bigger promotional push and more guaranteed screens for a longer period of time.

Also Fox=Disney, and Fox also produces "This Is Us." Synergy.

Followup thread title:

DL Icon Chrissy Metz new film has flopped.

wtf ????? why cant she diet ????? unreal to live life like dat...

I would love if someone could edit the Inevitable church scenes or bedside vigil scenes by adding the sound of Doritos being munched. The film's saddest, most dramatic scene with Chrissy's character in the hospital room and the camera focused on the bed would be hilarious with that.

Is she on the 2019 Deathwatch?

R81 Disney didn’t buy out all of Fox. Only a section of it.

Funny stuff r84

R17 laughing.my.ass.off

Loving the discourse happening in the Youtube comments!

Truth Talk 1 week ago This is the ONLY trailer for 5 years thats made me cry like this...If something where to happen to my kid...EVERYDAY i would look up and prey to god

Bunntingz 1 week ago Damn she's fat lmao

r86 Disney is buying ALL of Fox STUDIOS, which produces "This Is Us" and is releasing the movie we are discussing. So I don't understand the relevance of your point.

How many calories did she consume this Xmas?

I'm not sure, but she's had a Honey Baked ham, a small turkey and is waiting on her prime rib.

Chrissy opens up about wearing a swimsuit for the first time.

Some people survive cancer. Some people overcome horrific, abusive childhoods and make a life for themselves. Some people are paralyzed in car crashes. None are so brave as a woman who treats her body like a fucking garbage can, makes tons of money for it, and now has the inner strength to show off what that got her.

She's shitting out her Christmas dinner in the bathtub as we post.

I dread to think of her airline bms.

Imagine the magnitude and odorous horror of her constant farting..

Between the farts and vag odor, she must be a pleasure to work with.

Don't forget all the hot men lining up to fuck her.

fart loviin chum chub chasers...

R50 He's brown in real life too. I know it pains you that non white people exist, but they do.

I agree with r50, that drove me nuts in "Hereditary" too. The leads were Irish and the weird daughter looked Irish too and then they had that dark skinned Jewish kid. I mean the whole movie was shit but that casting was ridiculous.

Chrissy will blow you if you put chocolate sauce on your cock.

Or rim you if you smear peanut butter on your asshole.

If I eat pure carbs I end up falling asleep. How does she not find herself totally doing that?

R104 Personally, I'm a steak A.1. sauce kinda gal!

R105 Excuse me? Hun, I'm strictly low carb. And you can take that Dunkin Donut and shove it up your keister!

[quote]Oh, and yes. Let's all believe she could get a hot husband like Josh Lucas.

As others have pointed out, he's not that hot anymore. And his career does not seem to be going very well -- he was in that POS Broadway play with Uma Thurman, and now this repulsive Christian movie. Also, I have a question: Has he always had such a severe case of gay voice, or did that sort of develop over the years for some reason?

[quote]Chrissy will blow you if you put chocolate sauce on your cock.

I'd be afraid of losing my cock once it got into her mouth.

there aint a god dam ting rong with no man wntin to ssuk on a fat cunts pussy....

Troll at R42, thank you for giving yourself away so beautifully.

R50/R102, the real-life teen was dark-skinned, so please take your "I'm so not PC!" bullshit elsewhere.

I wonder if the real-life mother is pissed at her casting. She probably imagined Julia or Sandra in her role.

It reminds me of Glee, where they paired up Chord Overstreet with that fat black girl. As if.

R112 Amber Reilly. She has a name too.

And I’ve seen hot guys with not hot girls.

Yes, I see male models with fat black girls every day.

R114 AGAIN WITH THE RACE. ENOUGH.

WHY ARE THEY PUSSHING THIS FAT OBESE SICK BROAD ON US?????

TO SAY TOO US ITS OK TO EAT TILL WE DIE????

[quote][R112] Amber Reilly. She has a name too.

Yeah, but that's not it.

I hope it wasn't on an upper floor at the time.

How does a thread about fatty Chrissy devolve into race? She's a white, gross walking dumpster. A pig.

If I smear Nutella on my nipples, will Chrissy lick them?

Her, Whitney Weigh More, or Mess Holliday -- who smells the worst?

Chrissy smells like Puerto Rico during a heat wave, and it around the same size.

[quote]I wonder if the real-life mother is pissed at her casting. She probably imagined Julia or Sandra in her role.

Nah, she was probably hoping that Christian looney Jennifer Garner would have played her.

[quote]How the hell did Topher Grace go from working for Spike Lee to this in one year? Did he lose a bet?

I wonder about that too.

I see this trailer every time I go to the movies. Christ, help me. I'd need a bottle of wine before the screening

While some Christian movies do ok at the box office. I see this one being a major flop.

CHOPS? I get CHOPS? YUM!

Bitch is gonna be insufferable once this Jesusy piece of crap comes out - catnip for the fat fraus. The trailer is PAINFUL.

I love Chrissy Metz threads but I hope the poor lass never sees them! We really do love you Chrissy!

I actually think her acting in the trailer is impressive. She must be following Melissa McCarthy's lead, big funny girl does drama.

Oscar for Chrissy.

This is the only Oscar our Chrissy is interested in.

Any scat scenes? Asking for a friend.

[quote]While some Christian movies do ok at the box office. I see this one being a major flop.

They don't even bother showing them here in New Zealand. I guess being a country of heathens really works in our favour.

R124 I assumed this movie acts as a palate-cleanser for Topher after BLACKKKLANSMAN. Either that, or a way to assuage moviegoers who now may struggle to see past his performance in that film.

It’s astounding that such strong blowback can arise from pretending to be an awful person in a movie, but there you have it. Topher seems the type who is anxious & eager to be liked by fans offscreen but constantly takes (and honestly, best suits) dark unpleasant antagonistic roles. This can present problems when it comes to courting less intelligent theater-goers.

R134, people who are stupid enough to think playing an evil characters means you're evil are the target audience for this boring crap.

Yay! I have my own DL troll! I've officially made it!

This trailer is in front of EVERY DAMN MOVIE at the theaters. MAKE IT STOPPPPP

I can’t wait to watch this!

This film looks good.

[quote] Looks like she gets to showcase her acting chops.

Did someone say "chops"? YUM!!!

Trailers are all over TV. She actually looks a tad "thinner" in them than she does now.

She's on Fallon this week to plug it; judge for yourselves.

R139

No. No. No.

[quote]It's a Jesus movie, probably the only work the hog can get.

She’s big enough to play all twelve apostles.

Chrissy and Hugh Jackman are with Kelly and Ryan tomorrow (Monday, the 8th)

This film has Oscar all over it.

R145 This film has "On Nextlflix in 3 weeks" all over it.

BUMP

Did Josh Lucas get to eat out Chrissy's snatch?

Big as a house!

This trailer has been playing in front of almost every movie I've gone to see recently. MAKE IT STOPPPP

She seems like she’s gained another forty or fifty pounds. Not fat-shaming, but damn, that can’t be good for you.

She's going to be a BIG star!
