Friends With Kids

CHRIS O’DOWD SLAMS SKEEVY MICHAEL BAY AND WINS THE HEARTS OF HOLLYWOOD WOMEN

We were first smitten with Irish actor Chris O’Dowd when we saw him in Bridesmaids. He’s the sweetheart kind of guy that women remember. We like him even better now that he’s standing up for his “Friends With Kids” costar Megan Fox. Megan had a falling out with her Transformers director Michael Bay and was fired for speaking out against his treatment of women. (Note: producer Steven Spielberg was on Bay’s side.) The lascivious foul-mouthed Michael Bay is known for being reverential toward his male stars and sexist and demeaning toward his female actors. So men don’t complain about him. His deafening and plotless disaster movies appeal to sixteen year old boys. Nobody stood up for Megan when she criticized Bay and was fired. Until Chris O’Dowd. Chris thinks Megan was badly treated and RIGHT to complain. Chris agreed that “Bay is an a—hole” and added that he would never watch his films, much less act in them.

The “Mad Men“ star Jon Hamm‘s girlfriend of fifteen years, Jennifer Westfeldt, went to Yale and wrote and starred in the indie hit “Kissing Jessica Stein” in 2001. She also wrote and starred in her new movie “Friends With Kids” that has a great cast – many from “Bridesmaids.” (Jon has a costarring role) It’s an intelligent comedy about relationships, but far more sophisticated than “Bridesmaids.” Jon and Jennifer have been promoting the film which opens this week and we absolutely recommend this movie – it’s great to see a comedy written by a woman!
