I like what I've seen of Elizabeth Banks.  But I don't believe that I've seen any movie with her in it.  They're just not my kind of films.

Oh my.  I didn't realize she is in that.  I have always really liked her.  She's kind of like a lady Paul Rudd.... she seems to make the dumbest sh*t watchable.

Not saying Cocaine Bear will be dumb, of course.  I expect it to be entered into the Library of Congress, tbh.

The article says it was a 175 lb black bear. I had been led to believe it was a fully grown bear. Verified from other sources that that weight was correct. How does anything eat more than a third of its body weight at once?

Also, Elizabeth Banks is smoking hot. And usually really, really funny.

You have never seen Scrubs, 30 Rock, or the Hunger Games?

Most of her other filmography is voice acting or niche films, so I get it.

"I took 'Just say no' to heart," Banks says over breakfast in Beverly Hills.

It was hard not to when it was delivered in such a persuasive way that wasn't at all condescending or cringeworthy.

Until this thread I thought it was just a silly meme.  Now I know it's going to be a stupid, gory concept comedy.

Thought I expect I'd have found out anyway when the movie was released.

I don't know why the article thinks this film might ruin her career, she's well past most rom com actresses career age, this must seem like a better option than a graceless fall into Hallmark seasonal films.

It was a direct quote.

"'Cocaine Bear' is a ginormous risk," she says, breaking into a peal of that laughter. "This could be a career ender for me."

Pitch Perfect was a surprise (I recall liking the first, and the second wasn't terrible as far as sequels go. Stay a-farking-way from the third).

The real hook here for me is Lord & Miller - fark, those two could made a commercial for a tax preparer and I'd watch it 80 farking times. Jump Streets, The After Party, The Lego Movie, Into the Spider-Verse, and CLONE GODDAMN HIGH... those guys know good writing.

I did not realize they were involved, and now I really want to see Cocaine Bear.

Perhaps it made the same mistake I did and thought she acted in it.  Naw man, she produced and directed.  She may have not been thinking about her career as an actress.

For once, terrible marketing worked in a director's favor. You can't be blamed for a movie when hardly anyone knows it even exists.

Nonsense.  Here they are method acting in 2001's classic Wet Hot American Summer.  That's some Oscar worth shiat right there.

I forgot she was in that.  It had a damn good cast, but I was too young to know who most of them were yet.  First thing I remember her in was a secondary character in 40 Year Old Virgin.  That was a very memorable role for a teenage boy, even if you didn't get to see anything.

Too picky.  I'm a huge man-slut for any talented, capable, wealthy, attractive woman.  If I'm going to drool over women I'm never likely to even see from a distance, I'm not going to limit myself to just one.

She's a director. She is directing this movie. She is concerned about her directing career.
