I just saw it. It currently ranks #62 (out of #67) in my all-time worst list, right between BATTLESHIP and BATMAN & ROBIN.

As it happens with most multiple stories movies, nobody really stood out for me as the worst. If I decide to vote for an actor of this movie, it'll probably be one with a conjoined nomination with another movie.

More bad news from the Box Office Mojo front. This movie cost $40 million to make, and hauled in $84 million worldwide. It was profitable, which probably means we're in for a sequel.

This baby didn't exactly demand attention -- in fact, it was almost criminally neglected by movie-goers.

Here's a B.O. MoJo LINK to see how few potential parents showed up for feedings at theatres stuck baby sitting WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU'RE EXPECTING...

As always, I have not read the book, so my impressions are solely based on the movie.
It's pretty boring and unrealistic at times. When you are about to become a father, at one point you are usually told about hazzards, and that eating a cigarette can kill your child. In the movie, that scene is going for laughs, but it just paints fathers as dumb morons. And non of us spit out baby drinks, even if they don't taste that good. That scene only was funny back in Look who's talking. I am the first one to admit, unintentionally funny scenarios happen, but this movie is over the top.

The talents of Anna Kendrick were wasted, any girl could have played her part. Elizabeth Banks was actually quite good at times.
For your consideration:
Jennifer Lopez as Worst Actress
The constant whiny tune of her high pitched voice is hard to take, and more so, she didn't succeed in convincing me her character wanted a child for the love of it but her own egoistic reasons. It even felt like her character was absolutely desperate in NEED of a child, but only a cute, smiley one which promised to be tons of fun. Lopez' performance made me think, if the character's child had colics and was screaming constantly, she would lose interest and start complaining.

I can see the opening number for the 2013 Razzies where the cast sings...

You're Having My RAZZIE"

R.T. (20-30%): "The cast is stocked with likable performers, but the film is too disjointed, and too reliant on stock rom-com cliches, to live up to its distinguished literary namesake".]]> Fri, 18 May 2012 10:53:11 +0000 http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5874&PID=50992#50992 WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU'RE EXPECTING : Members' Discussion of YOU'RE EXPECTING...WHAT?!? http://www.razzies.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=5874&PID=50978#50978 Author: jesse685

Funnily enough, it went straight-to-DVD here too.

I think that it's because, when HeadRAZZ first proposed it, there wasn't a lot of negative feedback. When the nominations were announced, there was a lot of negative feedback, but it was too late. When the "winners" were announced, there was even more negative feedback, this time also from people outside of the forum.

And I also would've nominated Jovovich.

Then perhaps you wouldn't mind offering a hypothesis as to why he picked Nixon, Cattrall, Parker, and Davis for a collective Worst Actress nomination in 2010 instead of just leaving them with 1 nomination/win for Worst Ensemble Cast... out of all the horrible performances that year (I would've nominated Milla Jovovich for Resident Evil: Afterlife instead of the gal pals).

Wanna explain why Patrick Dempsey was picked instead of Don Johnson for the nominations ballot?

I haven't seen BUCKY LARSON (here, it went straight to DVD), and I didn't think Dempsey was bad. But the fact that he was one of the finalists suggests it was a good idea putting him in the Nominating Ballot.

If Johnson had been the worst supporting actor of the year, don't you think he would've gotten enough write-in votes?

Wow! It's not even been a month since THINK LIKE A MEN debuted!

And Think Like a Man isn't even one of ours, so I don't notice any similarities.

He's referring to the fact that both What To Expect When You're Expecting and Think Like a Man are based on books that are basically "How to" books, with no story involved. These movies attempt to make a story based on what the books try to teach others.

Yeah. And also because they're both "Rom-Coms" with multiple story lines.
