That would certainly solve your problem about one testis being smaller than the other.

Full Trailer here. (http://www.apple.com/trailers/universal/theedgeofreason/)
i like her fat.
Yeah, but I think she got exceptionally "fatter" than the last movie.
fatter = more by the ounce :wink:
This poster makes her look like she's about to blow somebody...

That poster really sucks. It suggests an over-the-top style that the trailers also suggest--which doesn't match with the first Bridget Jones movie, as the comedy wasn't SO broad, allowing Reneé to give a great performance (I was happy that she was nominated for it). So far, nothing in the advertising shows that she'll actually be able to give much of a performance in the new movie--it seems like it'll simply be a re-tread of the old jokes minus the substance that really made the original (book AND movie) stick.
I'm a fan of the first movie, but I just have a bad feeling about this one. If it had been the same director, I'd probably be more comfortable.
Lots and lots of pictures here (http://film.onet.pl/F,8698,1,1,galeria.html), if anyone is interested.
"Bridget" Jonesing for Early Release
Bridget Jones will be searching for her sanity sooner than expected.
Universal Pictures is moving up the release of Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason one week, to Nov. 12, the studio announced Monday.
The Nov. 12 debut, in about 500 theaters, will pit the film against the campy horror antics of Seed of Chucky, the heist antics of After the Sunset, and the Christmas classic dreams of The Polar Express, which checks in two days earlier on Nov. 10.
Finding Neverland, starring Johnny Depp as Peter Pan author J.M. Barrie, and Kinsey, starring Liam Neeson as sex surveyor Alfred Kinsey, also open on Nov. 12, but both in limited release.
The Edge of Reason will go nationwide on about 2,500 screens on Nov. 19, its original release date.
Brandon Gray of the movie site BoxOfficeMojo.com called the rescheduling move bold, noting that films usually get held back, not pushed up, in last-minute shuffles.
"They must have good reason in terms of tracking," Gray said Monday. "The movie must have strong awareness as it is."
Strong awareness, indeed. Universal said good buzz from press screenings and sneak previews was behind the new release date.
"This will give us a jump start on the holiday business," Nikki Rocco, Universal Pictures president of distribution, said in a statement.
The Edge of Reason is the sequel to the 2001 romantic-comedy hit, plain, old Bridget Jones's Diary (no colon, no subtitle). That film grossed $71.5 million.
Then as now, Renee Zellwegger stars as a zaftig (by Hollywood standards), journal-keeping journalist. Colin Firth returns as her stodgy love interest Mark Darcy. Hugh Grant pops in to reprise Darcy's devilish rival, Daniel Cleaver.
For both films, Zellwegger acquired a British accent and about 30 extra pounds to play author Helen Fielding's chick-lit heroine.
According to Gray, Edge of Reason should have a lock on the adult, female audience until at least Dec. 10, when babe magnets George Clooney, Brad Pitt and Matt Damon turn up in Ocean's Twelve.
Edge of Reason is the latest fall movie to experience a change in plans. Oliver Stone's epic Alexander was pushed back from Nov. 5 to Nov. 24. Jude Law's Alfie remake was moved from Oct. 22 to Nov. 5.
a quick word of warning to anyone else who happens to be female or in quick need of a 'date' movie of some kind. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD YOU SEE THIS FILM! utterly AWFUL. it was my girlfriends birthday, we both liked the first one. this is the worst kind of sequel. so bad i felt sorry for all the actors i liked for being in the film. really really painful.
SPOILERS
she ends up in a thai prison. that is all.
END SPOILERS
best parts were cameos from jessica stevenson from spaced and 'neil' from the office who i always thought was like a tv hugh grant, sharing a scene with the real hugh grant.

I really, really wished I would have taken your warning. It was pretty awful. The actors were trying so hard, but everything just fell apart and it didn't have any of the charm or creativity of the original. It was unrealistic and forced. I missed Bridget's parents...I wish they would have had a bigger part (along with Bridget's friends). I was overly frustrated and kept waiting for it to get better, but it didn't. It really turned Bridget's charming, quirky personality into a slapstick, 'make fun of her' approach, which repulsed me. She had so much heart and drive in the first movie...this movie makes her out to be dependant and horribly inept at everything.
Anyways...just to state it again in case anyone missed it...

yeah i tried to warn you. atleast we suffered so no one else has to.
If the speaker phone joke in the previews didn't put you off...then it's your own fault.
I've been saying this since the first one, which was awful, too. Thanks for the affirmation.
