WRITER: So it’s a rom/com, see, with three sassy best friends in New York City…. 20-something career girls who hyper-analyze the minutia of modern relationships with wacky buzz phrases and hysterical lists.
MOVIE EXECUTIVE: I love it! But what if…. hear me out… what if instead of three sassy girls, we replace them with THREE SASSY STRAIGHT BOYS? And what if IN ADDITION to hyper-analyzing modern relationships they also talk about… oh, I don’t know… POOPING AND GETTING BLOW JOBS?
WRITER: So… you want to do a CHICK FLICK FOR GUYS starring GUYS ACTING LIKE CHICKS?
MOVIE EXECUTIVE: EXACTLY! We’ll call it it BROMEDY, because marketing shows guys will go to anything with the word BRO in it. And we’ll cast super-hot hunks because THAT’S what important to guys when they choose a movie.
WRITER: And who is the taget audience for this “bromedy.”
MOVIE EXECUTIVE: James St James.
WRITER: That’s it?
MOVIE EXECUTIVE: Maybe a few other lonely, older homosexuals who want to fantasize that this is what 20-something straight guys are actually like. But don’t worry. They’ll see it hundreds of times and we’ll totally make our money back.
WRITER: Let’s DO IT!
