    Kristen Bell and Jason Bateman - best team up ever!

    I'm not usually one for the "Stupid Comedy", but I thought Forgetting Sarah Marshall was pretty funny. Certainly Bell gave a convincing performance as the seemingly shallow TV Star girlfriend who realizes too late what she lost.

    I'd say the new project seems promising. If they don't completely go the "Chick Flick" route, it's got the cast to be a decent film.

    Um, Jon Favreau wrote the script and he's back with long time friend, Vince Vaughn. Isn't that enough to lineup at the cinemas? Favreau and Vaughn are always perfect together and have hit home runs everytime they touch relationship comedy. Anybody seen Swingers or the Break-Up? The best part of this story is that only one of the four couples actually knows that the vacation is a married couples therapy retreat. I think this will play well with the cast. The ladies that have been casted are good, except Bell seems a tad young for Bateman, but that is just me. Faizon Love's other half hopefully will not end up being Mo'Nique!

    Kristen Bell wasn't convincing enough to me and not enough to be part of a rivalry with Mila Kunis. As far as possible good pairings in Retreat, Favreau and Davis will likely play the couple the audience will relate to. I see them as the repressed and unadventurous types who force themselves or get forced into a tropical vacation. The other couples will probably suffer the really bizarre gags.

    I loved Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Bell is a great actress whose following can only improve the status of this film. I must say that her pairing with Jason Bateman sounds strange, considering how much older he must be to her. However, the concept sounds interesting but yet again nothing new. I just need Elle back on Heroes

    Jason Bateman and Kristen Bell may do some "Juno" type scenes where they play off the age differences.
