What you may need to know:
1. Katie (Tina Fey) and Maura Ellis (Amy Poehler) throw a final house party before their parents sell up.
2. You know those movies where they put all the jokes in the trailer? Well, this isn’t one of those.
3. After six years together on SNL, Mean Girls (2004), Baby Mama (2008) and presenting every Golden Globes since the onset of Ricky Gervais fatigue, Fey and Poehler are rapidly turning into the American Ant and Dec.
4. Paul Feig should drop Ghostbusters (2016) and do an all-female reboot of Byker Grove with Fey and Poehler instead. I would watch the hell out of that.
5. That’s John Cena in the trailer. Cena is a popular WWE wrestler. Apparently.
6. Broadsheet prognosis: Two sisters. Zero laughs. Is it too late for a rewrite?
Release Date: March 11, 2016.

Why are they forcing this so much of this tedious all female comedy lately.
Yeah women are completely over represented in Hollywood
I like what you did there.
The Ghostbusters remake, this movie, Pitch Perfect 2, Trainwreck, Spy, I mean the list goes on and no wait that’s it.
It’s never been the same since they made it mandatory to go and see all female comedy films
Looks awful.
Granted I watched it with the sound off, but you could swap the actors with any other hollywood c listers from the last 20 years and not tell. Every cliche in the book looks to be there, even cannonballing a pool ffs.
Agreed. We’re talking about the James Bond trailer right.
Amy or Tina?
Such a misogynistic comment !
But Tina all day…………
why limit yourself to one?
Middle-class lefty whitest Irish media types will like this film.
thejournal.ie women will like this film. They can’t wait to say it was great and women can be funny and blah, blah, blah.
Today the middle-class lefty whitest Irish media types will be on the side of Nicki Minaj. They’ll want to be seen as being on the side of the black woman. Expect a lot of unfunny tweets and dopey articles.
Sounds like you’re the one with the problem.
@ Kieran
I told people to expect dopey articles:

That’s one of the worst opinion pieces that you’ll ever see. It’s a complete disaster in so many ways, I could be here all day talking about it.
These Irish websites are so predictable and yawn. It’s all so middle-class lefty whitest Irish with a Twitter account. Let’s have a street party now and some Caribou.
