Was just wondering how a thread hadn't been started on this one yet.
Wish there was a more ensemble vibe from the preview. There's a lot of, um, talent in this cast that didn't even show up in any of that footage.

Still, 21 Jump Street made me actually not dread the idea of Channing Tatum being at the center of this.

TBH, that trailer is a huge buzzkill. Is the whole thing about his relationship with junior stripper's sister?

not that i really want to see any of them, more that it's just pleasant to think of a steven soderbergh campus sex comedy starring former american idols and members of the u.s. curling team in 2015.

Each of my gay irl friends that I've discussed the movie agreed with me, tho, that Tatum is maybe the least attractive member of this movie's stripper troupe. To gay men, anyway.

Not c. 1996. Anyway, we disqualified in on account of he's playing the Joel Grey role.

Guessing this is the most profitable film of 2012: $113 mil domestic gross from a $7 million budget.
― canonical casual cordouroy (Eazy), Monday, 17 September 2012 02:51 (8 months ago) Permalink
that probably depends on whether you define "most profitable" as how much more it made than its budget or how many times over it made back its budget -- i've never really been clear on which is the most popular definition
― some dude, Monday, 17 September 2012 02:54 (8 months ago) Permalink
Yeah, I just mean percentage return on budget. Also just found the big number: $155 million worldwide.

I mean, is Chippendale's still in business? the whole phenomenon of straight women going to male strip clubs seems completely unreal to me, have literally never met any women who have done this, nor do I even know where they would go - all the male strip clubs I'm aware of are 100% gay.

There's a big strip club in Windsor that's quite famous because they can get away with full frontal nudity and the American strip clubs can't. My bridal party wanted to go there for my bachelorette party but I didn't want too because it seemed pretty unappealing to me -- someone who had been there once told me you could see the crabs jumping off the guys' pubes.

I would believe that Windsor strippers would have crabs.
I think there is a male stripper night at a Toronto strip club here but otherwise the men are only in gay clubs. As a lady myself the only one I've ever been to had female strippers, I went with a lesbian friend who'd just suffered a breakup. :)
