Pre-viewed

I recently saw The Switch (don't ask).  Being a romantic comedy, it was preceded by three trailers (note: they're called "trailers" because they used to come at the end of the film) for upcoming chick flicks.

The amazing thing was if you weren't watching closely, it might as well have been one long trailer.  Each of them (made by the same house?) were practically identical.  They all start by introducing a young, comely lass (natch). (If you're curious, Katherine Heigl, Kristen Bell and Rachel McAdams.) She's soon caught up in some new endeavor--a job, a kid, whatever--and before you know it, involved in wacky physical comedy.  There's a hunk who seemed a little more stable and less wacky, as well as several members of the older generation.  Then, after enjoying the hijinks, there's a moment where someone sits down with the gal and had a heart-to-heart, doling out serious, life-affirming advice.  Next, a bouncy pop song sung by a woman starts up as we see a few more moments and get to the title card.

They could have saved time and just promised it'd be better than The Switch.

PS.  The switch in The Switch is it's sold as a Jennifer Aniston film, but it's really Jason Bateman's.

PPS  Aniston (mother), Bateman (sperm donor) and Patrick Wilson (alleged sperm donor) all have blue eyes, so why doesn't anyone mention the kid has brown eyes?
