The 2004 Live-Action Adaptation of the Viz comic strip Fat Slags. The story follows two immense women from an over-the-top stereotype of the North-West of England going to the slightly less over-the-top stereotype of London, to sit in the Studio Audience of a current affairs show.While there, they accidentally charm their way into the heart of a multi-multi-multi-billionaire, Sean Cooley (Jerry O'Connell), who has just suffered a severe blow to the head. The blow makes him forget to hide his Chubby Chaser fetish and, when he sees the girls on TV, he gets obsessed with them. He decides to make Fat Admirers the driving force behind all fashion and pop culture, while showering the ladies in gifts and unwittingly causing his besotten Personal Assistant, Paige (Geri Halliwell), to gorge herself into a Big Beautiful Woman. First Britain and then, offscreen, the rest of the world become enthusiastic Fat Admirers and either Big Beautiful Women or those who want to be BBWs. | |

The Unintelligible | |
| Fat Slags / int_32821ceb | comment |
The Unintelligible: The slags' boyfriends, Baz and Dave. Their thick northern accents and rapid speech are so incomprehensible they're mistaken for illegal immigrants and deported to Afghanistan - the interrogators think Dave, telling them that San gives Baz a "hard-on," actually said "Osama Bin Laden." | |

| Fat Slags / int_4c9d226e | comment |
Formerly Fit: Paige, desperate to win over Cooley, fattens herself up to try to become attractive to him. She gets very fat in a short amount of time, losing her slender figure to the immense amount of food she stuffs herself with. | |

Big Eater | |
| Fat Slags / int_5fcedca | comment |
Big Eater: Obviously the Fat Slags are the fat variety. Shortly after they start dating a multi-trillionaire, we have a scene showing one of the Fat Slags, then panning down her chest to follow a table piled three feet high with ridiculously fattening food for about a full minute before panning up the other Fat Slag. The pile of food is so long, they need a phone at each end to talk. Paige becomes one out of desperation to please and attract Cooley, but soon she begins gorging herself for pure pleasure and gluttony all the same. Best seen when even the failed logic of her plan to fatten up for Cooley is pointed out, she still gluttonously shoves a slab of cake into her mouth moaning with pleasure the whole time. | |

Plot Hole | |
| Fat Slags / int_6331ba26 | comment |
Plot Hole: Cooley was being wheeled in for penis reattachment surgery after Tracy accidentally fell onto the secretary general and the slags were thrown in jail. Yet he's released from the hospital as the secretary general arrives in an ambulance. As Bad Movie Beatdown pointed out, either the poor secretary general had the longest ride to the ER the world has ever seen, or Cooley's delicate and complicated surgical procedure happened at warp speed. | |

Establishing Character Moment | |
| Fat Slags / int_7febc23b | comment |
Establishing Character Moment: The first we see of the Slags is them grabbing their mailman, dragging him into the house, and then throwing him back out half-dressed and dazed, heavily implying they raped him. This, incidentally, is as close as the film's versions of San and Tray get to the comics version. | |

Status Quo Is God | |
| Fat Slags / int_a6e8221e | comment |
Status Quo Is God: Subverted - by the film's end they have lost not only everything they've gained over the course of their adventure, but even their house which was gutted to be put on display as a work of art. Their boyfriends manage to return from their little trip to Afghanistan, though how they did so is never explained. The national fad sparked from their shortlived television career also dies off about as abruptly as it began once Cooley stops promoting them. | |

| Fat Slags / int_e2d7b14c | comment |
Made of Explodium: The Slags' gardener explodes for no clearly defined reason, after having a fatally squished pet dog thrown into him and then falling into a wheelbarrow. Later on a laptop goes up in a similarly violent explosion, although it's implied at an earlier point that the laptop has a self-destruct mechanism which the Slags inadvertently trigger by whacking it around. | |

Love Makes You Dumb | |
| Fat Slags / int_f7883b17 | comment |
Love Makes You Dumb: Paige has it pointed out to her that just because she’s getting fat doesn’t mean it’ll actually succeed in attracting Sean. But by this point, not only is Paige still too obsessed with winning over Sean to care, she’s too gluttonous to care and is now addicted to fattening foods. | |
