ValentinesDay | |
| Valentine's Day | comment |
Released just before Valentine's Day in 2010, this ensemble Romantic Comedy film was directed by Garry Marshall and boasts an All-Star Cast including Jessica Alba, Kathy Bates, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Patrick Dempsey, Héctor Elizondo, Jamie Foxx, Jennifer Garner, Topher Grace, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, Taylor Lautner, George Lopez, Shirley MacLaine, Emma Roberts, Julia Roberts, Taylor Swift, and many, many more.Basically, the film follows the intersecting events of various characters, all taking place on the titular day. There's Reed (Kutcher), the hopelessly romantic florist proposing to his girlfriend (Alba). There's Julia (Garner), head-over-heels for a handsome doctor (Dempsey). Jason's (Grace) just starting to fall for his new girlfriend, Liz (Hathaway). Meanwhile Edison (Bryce Robinson) has a crush on a girl at school. His grandparents, Edgar (Elizondo) and Estelle (MacLaine) are getting ready to renew their vows. Kara (Biel) has sworn off love, while Sean Jackson (Eric Dane) is facing the end of a relationship and possibly the end of his career.Nobody's Valentine's Day quite goes as planned. The flowers don't always reach their intended target; some relationships end, while others blossom. The film also does a good job of weaving the various plots together, and while not all the stories overlap, they form an overall mosaic much the same as the earlier Love Actually.Marshall went on to direct a pair of Creator Driven Successors, New Year's Eve (2011) and Mother's Day (2016). | |

The Cameo: Yes, that's Joe Mantegna who almost gets hit by Jason (Kutcher)'s van. | |

TrailersAlwaysLie | |
| Valentine's Day / int_337a0f4 | comment |
Trailers Always Lie: The trailer shows a shot of Kate and Holden looking each other in the eyes, and smiling, while a voice-over says "there's always a chance for romance". This strongly suggests that these two will be romantically interested in each other, or together, in the movie. But in the movie there is no romance between these two and he's already in love with someone else. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| Valentine's Day / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Patrick Dempsey plays a successful (and two-timing) surgeon. When Topher Grace's Jason questions the ringtone of his girlfriend, thinking it sounds techno, she says it's more retro, very '70s. Taylor Lautner's Willy: "I'm not really comfortable taking my shirt off in public." Possibly the funniest line in the movie for Twilight fans. (Or anti-fans, we're really not picky.) The limo driver asks Julia Roberts's Kate if she'd ever shopped on Rodeo Drive. The answer? "Big mistake. Huge." A flight attendant on the airplane Kate and Holden are flying on announces that the weather in Los Angeles has cleared up after "three days of rain" (the title of a play that Bradley Cooper and Julia Roberts had starred in together on Broadway). | |

Advertised Extra | |
| Valentine's Day / int_4b0ef86e | comment |
Advertised Extra: Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner. A huge chunk of the advertising for this movie had "starring Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner" and a good chunk of the time didn't even mention any of the other actors in the film (and their then Real Life romance didn't help matters). The two have maybe three scenes in the film and are pretty extraneous. Jessica Alba also has hardly any screen time. And she plays one of the very few characters who isn't with somebody at the end. | |

Their First Time: Grace and Alex are planning to have sex with each other for the first time, but this is disrupted by her mother walking in at an unfortunate time. Later they decide to put off having sex for a while, so subverted. | |

| Valentine's Day / int_61375e57 | comment |
Big Damn Kiss: Reed (Kutcher) and Julia (Garner) try for this. It ends up being really awkward. But then they talk about it and try again, and this time the music swells. Kara (Biel) and Kelvin (Foxx) gets one because they are kissing in front of a Green Screen, and Kelvin's coworkers change the background to a sunset. | |
