First Wives Club Reunion: Family Jewels

I thought Goldie said she would NEVER work with Bette again.

Which one of my songs will they massacre in this movie?

Sounds great! I'll be watching it.

They better hurry up though. Those girls are getting on.

Like all these comedies starring ladies like these or Gonda and Bergen, etc., it will have a soppy heartwarming series of scenes meant to elicit "Aww" a and sniffles. I hate that comedies with comic actresses always have to soften the comedy in some lame attempt at frau Lifetime Movie sappiness. It would be great to see these three in a comedy that knows how to stay a comedy but this is bound to contain scenes of parents bonding with distant adult children.

That silver wig looks great on Midler.

Cute idea for a film, but if we're talking about a straight man who had three marriages, and the marriages lasted long enough to produce children... why are all the ex-wives the same age? Or close to the same age?

[Quote] why are all the ex-wives the same age?

Good point. I volunteer to play younger.

Predictions:

* Paul Rudnick will be paid $$$$ to punch up the script * Someone will tell Diane Keaton she's still valuable and beautifful * Bette will have one good line. * Bette's one good line will be in the trailer * The trailer will be better than the movie

R4, that pisses me off. I liked “Bad Teacher” because she was still a grifting bitch at the end, just less bad. I hate sappy shit.

Sarah Jessica Parker has signed on as the horse for the Central Park carriage scene.

And Stockard Channing will cameo as the forth wife who offs herself.

But only in a voice recording.

I will play the youngest daughter, a talented Jewess Broadway ingenue!

I for one can’t wait for the triumphant wheelchair race.

Heather Locklear (who did a cameo in the movie) just accused her co-star James Naughton of sexual assault.

Naughton fought back provided the script that showed in writing that what Heather described, was actually the scene in the script!

Heather Locklear is an unreliable narrator. And kudos to James for keeping and archiving all his former scripts for easy referrals.

Maggie Smith will play a wizened UES matron with an Hermès ostomy bag

I don't understand. Isn’t that basically the plot for the first one?

No. Their friend kills herself. Each of the leads has their own (ex-/unfaithful) husband.

What wives will the exhusbands be on now 4 or 5?

I would more enjoy a film where their kids all get dumped for InstaHos so they set out for revenge. Brenda’s son is dumped by some Jewess Princess for some Heb CEO, Annie’s Dyke daughter is left for a lipstick and Elise can have an adopted Chinese daughter or something.

Heather has clarified her remarks writing

“Oh no, I didn’t mean James Naughton did anything wrong,” Locklear wrote on Instagram. “The script called for him to touch my breast. I was surprised that he circled my areola. We had not discussed the scene prior to filming. To be clear, I was never upset with James, just surprised. Love you James.”

[Quote] Speaking on {Zach Braff's} podcast, Heather alleged: 'He doesn’t grab it. He actually outlines my areola with his finger.'

[Quote] She appeared to claim that was his own decision and he did it when the camera was rolling.

[Quote] 'It didn’t say that in the script. I was like [gasps],' she said.

[Quote] 'I'm so glad they're following his hand down because my face, my mouth is fallen open and I can’t believe it and don’t do it again. One take and let’s go.'

[Quote] {Naughton's} rep even shared the script from December 1995. It said, 'Despite the grave facade, we see that Gil is subtly using his finger to feel Mary’s breast. Mary smiles at him shyly.'

Why did Locklear even take that role? I thought even SJP's role was a comedown for her. I guess they were sold as all-star-cameo parts.

That's nothing! In MY cameo scene--which was cut!-- Naughton made a puppet of my pussy. Jstvrammed his hand up there and made me tell corny jokes. All the script says was, "He touches her." He's a pig! And a puppeteer.

I'm available to play one of the grandchildren

Well thank God Covid happened because that Locklear scenario is going to be the end of love scenes. I bet we'll see more actors go the Jim Caviziel and Neal McDonough route and not perform kissing/love scenes - but their reasons won't be because of God.

Too bad Olivia Goldsmith died, I loved her books

Jeez, why is it every time a man touches a woman under any circumstances, not matter how minor, it eventually becomes a traumatic confession of abuse? You’re right, R28, eventually no amount of intimacy coordination, consent or prior agreement will be enough. I’m sure more men will start refusing any intimate scenes whatsoever.

I want Jennifer Aniston to play me!
