Wow… I thought we’d see a 3rd “Bridget” book before this ever happened. Helen Fielding, where’d you go?
I read somewhere they were thinking of going with “Bridget Jones: Zellwegger Needs a Hit BADLY!”
Kind of a mouthful I think.
Why?
That’s all I have. Sorry.
which Jane Austin novel will they base this one off of?
Ok, this definetely falls under movie franchises that should stop…
God help us all….

Start eating those carbs Renee!
you better start eating those carbs, Renee!
Trust Hollywood to take a funny movie, make a profit, and then beat the movie in to the ground with sequel after sequel because they’re too lazy to come up with an original concept if one made money before
Funny
The second movie was superfluous, and made a mockery of our beloved Bridget. I really hope these executives come to realize how bad an idea this is, but the probably won’t.
wow – the 2nd movie was not good, but if Colin Firth is back, I’ll watch this one (pretty tired of Renee, though).
I hope they make it better than The Edge of Reason. I loved the first one but they made her too frumpy and plain in the second one and she was just ridiculous. But I LOVE Colin Firth so I’ll be watching it. There is just something about him. And how did Bridget get to be in her 40′s? She was 33 in the last movie!
Pleeease no Beban Kidron in the director’s chair for this one… she ruined what was, actually, a funny and touching follow up (the book anyway)by making it ridiculous and unbelievable and way toooo over the top.
Madly in love with the first movie… the second, not so much. (Although I loved the book, actually!) Yeah, as long as Colin Firth is back, I’m in. And GoodGodAbove, Renee needs to put a bit of weight on!!! She’s been a pogo stick with clothes lately…
