I've never even heard of that movie. Maybe the reviews of it are so bad that they moved it to go head-on with Cloverfield hoping that nobody would see it and it could sink quietly to Lifetime Channel syndication.

If Katherine Heigl can't beat the monster with her awesome hotness, we're all doomed.

lemme guess this is a movie about a 30 something women looking for love, and finds in the (workplace here) then some inconsquential events happent hat dont really move the story along but make for some sappy moments for soccer moms to cry over happen, then the films title finally comes into play as the female lead picks out 27 dresses hating each one as they make her look fat, finally she picks a dress that may or may not have any special meeting, more stuff happens, they marry, the end.

i hav'nt read imdb yet but i bet im close.

Nighthawk

27 Dresses is the polar opposite of Cloverfield; it's a chick flick. I don't think it'll have that much of an impact.

If anything, it will affect Cloverfield, because more men will be dragged in to the chick flick by their significant others because the women don't want to see a monster movie. Heck, I am pretty sure my wife wouldn't be caught dead watching Cloverfield...

Actually, maybe that's why they kept the name Cloverfield?

Me: Honey, let's watch a movie.
Her: Which one?
Me: Cloverfield.
Her: Sounds romantic... what's it about?
Me: Uh... A guy trying to find the love of his life in New York.
Her: Bet it has a cute dog, too.
Me: Uh... yeah... a big one.
Her: Aw...

Yet another gag-worthy made-to-formula chick-flick romantic comedy. Woop-de-freakin' do. It's a *good* move for us, because if nobody goes to see the POS then maybe it'll have a shorter run and stop clogging up precious theater time that could be used for really good destructo-flicks like Cloverfield, etc, etc.

Thankfully my girlfreind has been following this arg along with me and wants to see Cloverfield, to quote her exactly,

"If i wanted to see a story about women who no one will love, and spend there day's wasting away, id watch the view"
