| Ramona and Beezus | Salt | WINNER
(1 point per category)
|
| Clearest Title | I don´t know who this Ramona is, or why she is using such strong language like ¨Beezus¨ | Perhaps an educational documentary about table salt. Yawn. I hope they can spice it up a bit. | Wait a second. Ramona reminds me of some book I read in elementary school. She will win the point for this round. |
Best Genre
and Rating | PG (Family Comedy) | PG-13 (Action Thriller) | Family Comedies have potential to be cute, or pain inducing. It´s harder to go wrong with an action thriller. Point for NaCl. |
Cleverest Tagline
(out of 5 stars) | "A little sister goes a long way"
Cute. I´m guessing little sisters are a handful. It´d be really clever if the plot of the movie was about trying to send your little sister away to the Arctic.
1/5 stars
| "Who is Salt?"
I´ve been trying to figure this out since the beginning of this column. But this is a better tagline than, ¨Don´t use too much of it at dinner time.¨
1/5 stars
| (Insert witty comment here.)
Each movie will split the point for best tagline.
|
| Best Part of Trailer | This seems like one of the good family comedies (unlike a Furry Vengeance-type of family ¨comedy¨) | BAM! Angelina Jolie can´t do wrong in a action/thriller. Looks good. | I want to watch Salt right now. And that statement alone gives Salt the point for this round. |
| Coolest Lead Actor | Selena Gomez is more well-known than I thought she was. Apparently a lot of tweens watch Wizards of Waverly Place. | Angelina Jolie is also more well-known than I thought she was. Apparently every woman´s magazine likes to gossip about her. | I was never an Angelina fan, until I saw Wanted. That movie is in my top ten movies of all-time list. Now an automatic point for Angie. |
| Best Cast Member | Ginnifer Goodwin. You know her from Big Love and as the main girl from He´s Just Not That Into You. | Liev Schreiber. You know him as Sabretooth from X-men 3 and the Scream Trilogy. | Ginnifer has to take this point. In addition to the awesome way she spells her name, she was also in one of the 5 chick flicks I highly approve of. |
Best Street Cred
For the Production | Producer Denise Di Novi has also produced The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and 35 other movies. | Director Phillip Noyce has also directed Clear and Present Danger and Patriot Games. | I´m glad my action thriller of the summer is in good hands. Point for Mr. Noyce. |
