Date Movie 2006 PG-13, 84 min. Genre: Comedy
Director: Aaron Seltzer Cast: Alyson Hannigan, Adam Campbell, Jennifer Coolidge, Tony Cox, Fred Willard, Eddie Griffin, Sophie Monk, Meera Simhan, Marie Matiko, Judah Friedlander, Carmen Electra, Mauricio Sanchez
In this spoof on romantic comedies, extremely obese Julia Jones (Alyson Hannigan) falls for Grant Fonckyerdoder (Adam Campbell) and, in order to attract him, goes for a full-body makeover after which she emerges as a very sexy young woman. Her ploy works, wedding plans are in order, and now it is time to meet the parents–Julia's Greek-Indian-Jewish-Japanese relatives and Grant's White, English family. From that point on, you have seen it all before as the movie pokes fun at such films as "Big Fat Greek Wedding," "Meet the Parents," and "The Wedding Planner."

Director: Jason Friedberg, Aaron Seltzer Cast: Kal Penn, Adam Campbell, Jennifer Coolidge, Jayma Mays, Faune A. Chambers, Crispin Glover, Tony Cox, Hector Jimenez, Darrell Hammond, Carmen Electra, Fred Willard, David Carradine, Kevin McDonald, George Alvarez
Orphans Edward (Kal Penn), Peter (Adam Campbell), Lucy (Jayma Mays), and Susan (Faune A. Chambers) are invited to tour Willy's (Crispin Glover) candy factory, and, too late, they realize that they are there to be ingredients in the candy. They escape that fate by stumbling into an enchanted wardrobe that transports them to the fantasy land of Gnarnia where they have been brought to defeat the evil White Bitch (Jennifer Coolidge) and restore Aslo (Fred Willard) to the throne. And the film goes on–continuing to make fun of "epic" movies made over the last few years.
