>At the Los Angeles premiere of The Hustle on Wednesday night, stars Rebel Wilson and Anne Hathaway revealed some surprising political and social inspirations behind their new film, which follows two women out to con a tech millionaire.
>"Obviously I love female empowerment stories, and with what was going on socially in Hollywood and in America as a whole, I just really felt like now is the time for women to get back at the dirty rotten men that have been conning them for decades," Wilson told The Hollywood Reporter on the red carpet. "Originally we had the [movie] title as Nasty Women, so obviously it was formed around the time of Hillary Clinton and stuff."
>The Hustle is a reboot of the 1988 comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, starring Steve Martin and Michael Caine, and Wilson, who also served as a producer, had the idea of giving the story a female twist.
>"I wouldn't want to just gender-flip a movie, I wanted to have a real rationale for it, and I just got that feeling in my gut it was right to remake this one," she said.
>"I wouldn't want to just gender-flip a movie, I wanted to have a real rationale for it, and I just got that feeling in my gut it was right to remake this one," she said.
Which one even said this? Anne Hathaway just gender flipped Ocean’s 11 like six months ago
William Smith
Why do women hate men so much?
Jayden Jones
>Women dislike millionai- >Women aren't interested in having a rich partn-
What's even better is that it's literally just a gender flip of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels
They copy it beat for beat and most of the negative reviews are from women
They're not even falling for this crap anymore
Ryder Turner
>a reboot of the 1988 comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Wtf I finally watched this movie and it literally ends with a “haha stupid men women hold the real power” but in a funny and well done way
Jacob Jenkins
Do other countries have this problem where the women hate the men or is it just US?
Adrian Smith
>The Hustle is a reboot of the 1988 comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, starring Steve Martin and Michael Caine, and Wilson, who also served as a producer, had the idea of giving the story a female twist. This hurts more than I ever could have imagined
Gabriel Clark
>Dirty Rotten Scoundrels >with a female twist a woman scammed the scammers in the original though. is a man going to scam women in the new one?
Brayden Adams
Is this another sub-par film that a studio decided was a cultural touchstone thirty years after the fact like Pet Semetary?
>The Hustle is a very straight remake of Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, following the 1988 movie starring Michael Caine and Steve Martin’s story and character beats with surprising fidelity.
>That also means, if you’re familiar with that version, the ending, which I won’t spoil here if you’re not, undermines The Hustle’s philosophy of two smart women using their intellect and instincts to play on silly men’s spurious assumptions about women against them.
>The twist is clever in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels but it doesn’t work here, another disappointment in a movie that was already only mildly amusing in the first place — it’s as if we’re the ones who have been conned.
I presume so
Jace Roberts
>Jac Schaeffer, who wrote the script, said that the film was actually developed right before the #MeToo movement hit Hollywood, and the wave of accusations against powerful men "started happening while we were on set, and it sort of felt like we part of this larger zeitgeist groundswell."
From the Hollywood reporter article
From a review on it
>It’s also not competent, not funny, and, often, not remotely appropriate. (Did I just watch a scene in which Rebel Wilson pressures a reluctant sexual partner into “comedy” intercourse in a airplane lavatory? Yes I did.)
>There are many dodgy mishaps that happen too late in the picture to mull over in detail. So let’s go with an early one: Rebel Wilson doesn’t seduce her victims; she uses a picture of a thinner, bustier blonde as a lure. Other objectionable developments follow.
Inspired by #metoo for sure you Hollywood hacks
How do they say that shit in interviews with a straight face?
Jayden Cox
>makes movie bashing men >it flops
like pottery
Connor Hill
Does anyone have the cap of the thread from before Ghostbusters predicting Melissa McCarthy not being able to get into her jumpsuit?
I imagine all Rebel Wilson movies being some variation of this
>making fun of the blind is what earns this film a red card
She sounds fun
Jayden Ramirez
do they name the jew
Cameron Brown
Let me give you guys a hint: These actresses don't give a shit about empowering women. They accept money from the jews.
Elijah Murphy
>men afraid to call a shitty comedy shit now
Justin Peterson
Solzman
Lincoln Brooks
Western Europe as well.
Easton Sanchez
>men are so afraid of not getting pussy they'll call this piece of shit movie good
Isaac Nguyen
their jobs are on the line here. would you throw away a cozy gig getting paid to watch flicks and type up a couple hundred words each week just to "stick it to the roasties"?
Isaac Miller
they hate them only until they're about 32, have 2 or 3 children and need a provider
Adrian Ross
>The Hustle is a reboot of the 1988 comedy Dirty Rotten Scoundrels So Heartbreakers is just memory holed now?
They unironically should be. Being labeled "sexist" or "alt-right" means their career is fucking over.
Jaxson Flores
Canada literally puts people under arrest for disagreeing with Feminists on Social-Media.
Austin Perry
Whats with the Pet Semetary hate nigga? Classic story.
Elijah Perez
>These actresses don't give a shit about empowering women. They accept money from the jews.
Why can't it be both?
Grayson Diaz
>"Lets stick it to these "Dirty, rotten men'!" >Literally genderswaps and remakes "Dirty Rotten Scoundrels" from 88' >Flops
Who woulda fucking guessed that bashing on the literal people who created the movie you're ripping off would backfire?
Charles Cooper
>Anne Hathaway detonates a megaton blast of pure unfunniness in this terrifying film. She leaves behind a mushroom cloud of anti-humour, reducing every laugh possibility to grey-white ash in a postapocalyptic landscape of horror and despair. If J Robert Oppenheimer had witnessed this, he might have staggered out of the cinema auditorium, subjected the foyer to his stricken thousand-yard stare, and murmured that Hathaway had become Death of Comedy, the destroyer of gags.
Rekt
Jaxon Evans
Literally the entire Anglosphere.
Joseph Williams
Men are terrified of being labelled misogynistic if they don't artificially inflate the egos of women by pretending their shit is good. It happens in almost all forms of entertainment now.
Jason Flores
>it’s as if we’re the ones who have been conned SAVAGE
Jordan Torres
Rebel Wilson is just destroying her own career with this shit. That one where she was in some romcom was a total shit fest. It's like she's decided >fat girls can be sexy lead actresses! And is just forcing that fat square peg into that thin round hole no matter how much the public says they don't want to see it. You're the funny sidekick you stupid bitch. Im paying to see Anna Kendrick, you just crack some jokes and stay out of the way
Evan Sanders
Pet Semetary was a moderately entertaining TV movie, mostly because of the old guy in the overalls, and then when IT made money the marketing department thought that all of Stephen King's schlock adaptations were sacrilege. Presumably this went away after Pet Semetary did the usual horror movie numbers I wouldn't be surprised if they remake Cujo and try to tell me that it's a beloved classic
Nolan Hill
Eeeh, overkill. It sounds like a guy who giggles at Ebert calling Rob Schneider “unfunny to all 5 senses and some that have yet to be discovered” or whatever the quote is and tries to one-up him
Jonathan Hernandez
I’m actually pleased with this because the minute IT (which I liked) was a hit I knew they were gonna start a 10 year process of mining the mountains of King IP until a major flop happened.
I’m surprised it happened this soon
Joseph Johnson
>female twist.
Dear god this people have no imagination. They are fucking dead inside.
Logan Young
>men love the original movie. >women hate the remake.
Why are modern women so fragile?.
Joseph Reed
It’s just platypus faced neurotic cunts like Hathaway.
Liam Peterson
Anne Hathaway has a jewish child, does that count?
Elijah Diaz
The original was hilarious. >why is the cork on the fork
Connor Wright
Yeah. It's Hollywood what we are talking here. So you're right
Joshua Ramirez
Anne Hathway says she'll bang you, but only on one condition: she wants to watch you fuck Rebel first.
fuck Rebel and then point and say "Hey is that coke over there?" and jump out the window when Anne Hathaway looks behind her
Cameron Hughes
haha one of the women is attractive and one is a fat pig that's funny!
Nathaniel Jones
Reverse the order and deal.
Noah Murphy
Can’t get the princess without slaying the dragon
Oliver Baker
We watched Dirty Rotten Scoundrels in a film class I attended two falls ago. I thought it was pretty funny. I was dying when Steve Martin had to act like a retard.
Jason Foster
Wonder if that's kept in the new one
Not exactly pc
Angel Stewart
>Men are terrified of being labelled misogynistic if they don't artificially inflate the egos of women by pretending their shit is good. I wouldn't call those people men doe.
