slothian Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Yes, you can help influence not only the film Pandy & I use as the joint review, but the homework we assign each other to plot the range of their career. As announced in Episode 70, our subject will be Kirsten Wiig. Pandy & I will take an executive decision on what makes the joint review by Saturday 21 December so get your ideas in before then! NB) Remember, we need films where she is at least third billed. So we're not doing Knocked UP, for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Bridesmaids. That's all there is right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
You Know Who Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 20 minutes ago, Stavros said: Bridesmaids. That's all there is right? Bridemaids and Ghostbusters. I'm tempted to say The Martian or Walk Hard but in each she's part of a large ensemble and each film would probably be better for episodes devoted to their respective main stars (Matt Damon and John C. Reilly). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stavros Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 Eh, most of that is just SNL cameo stuff. I'm talking featured actress in a movie that made cinemas. I look forward to you review of her performances as Vicki St Elmo in Macgruber, Katinka in Zoolander 2 and Brenda in Sausage Party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, to test your theory, let's compare Wiig's filmography from Bridesmaids onwards (for films only) against all of Lilly's films. I'll use spoiler tags for legibility. Kristen Wiig: Spoiler 2011 Bridesmaids 2011 Friends with Kids 2012 Revenge for Jolly! 2012 Girl Most Likely 2013 Despicable Me 2 2013 Her 2013 The Secret Life of Walter Mitty 2013 Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues 2013 Hateship, Loveship 2014 The Skeleton Twins 2014 How to Train Your Dragon 2 2014 Welcome to Me 2015 The Diary of a Teenage Girl 2015 Nasty Baby 2015 The Martian 2016 Zoolander 2 2016 Ghostbusters 2016 Sausage Party 2016 Masterminds 2016 Lightningface 2017 Despicable Me 3 2017 Downsizing 2017 Mother! 2019 How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World 2019 Where'd You Go, Bernadette 2020 Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar 2020 Wonder Woman 1984 Evangeline Lily Spoiler 2003 Stealing Sinatra 2003 The Lizzie McGuire Movie 2003 Freddy vs. Jason 2004 White Chicks 2005 The Long Weekend 2008 The Hurt Locker 2008 Afterwards 2011 Real Steel 2013 The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug 2014 The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies 2015 Ant-Man 2017 Little Evil 2018 Ant-Man and the Wasp 2019 Avengers: Endgame 2020 Dreamland Either way, that will at least spell out some available choices.

Stavros Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I guess I like her in Despicable Me? And I like Bridesmaids. I don't have anything against her I just dont remember her being in much stuff, even things I've seen that shes credited in. She was in The Martian? I literally dont remember that.

Tbf you may have been more preoccupied by Matt Damon growing potatoes on Mars using shit, but she's there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missy Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Wow, I've only seen one of her movies: Ghostbusters. Toss in Bridesmaids and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batguy10 Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 The Skeleton Twins, Bridesmaids and Ghostbusters. If you find the latter two too similar, you could throw in Welcome to Me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donomark Posted December 19, 2019 Report Share Posted December 19, 2019 Bridesmaids and Ghostbusters are her biggest cinematic claims to fame I reckon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
