Judd Apatow tries to redeem himself with the ladies

You know I am no Judd Apatow fan.  I think he really talks down to the ladies and that he makes crappy boy bromance films that perpetuate the cycle of crappy boycentric movies that inundate our screens most weekends.

It seems that now Mr. Apatow wants to get into the lady business and has signed on to produce Business Trip a film written by Stacey Harman that will star his wife Leslie Mann.  Cinematical says its going to be a female version of The Hangover.

The logline is:

“a group of women who go on a corporate trip but wind up doing anything but business while on company time.”

Now I am all for a funny movie about women especially one that will focus on women who work, but just because The Hangover worked with guys as the leads doesn’t mean that the same premise will work for women.  It’s the same crap that’s been going on with scientific studies for decades.  Study men and then just extrapolate to include women.

Just want to remind folks that women are not small men.  We are different.
