Maid of Honor III


I don't know how they manage it but everytime I step onto an airplane and check the SkyMiles magazine for the in-flight entertainment they have put together the finest collection of absolute chick-flick crap. It's as if they scour the earth for the most worthless cinema they can find only so that Friends cast can continue to work.. Just on my most recent flight I got on and saw they were featuring Maid of Honor some dreadful 2 hour extravaganza of sight, sound and color. I can't tell you what it was about but I believe it stars either Jennifer Anniston or Jennifer Lopez as a down-on-her luck chick who has found herself in yet another wedding party serving as the MOH for her best friend which may have been played by Lindsey Lohan. The marriage-to-be is doomed from the start as the Bride has turned Bridezilla and the groom played by Mathew McConaughey has cold-feet when he realizes he'll be married into a family with Craig T Nelson and his football war-stores as the overbearing father-in-law. The comedy takes an interesting twist when the groom reveals his fears and eventually his true love the night before the wedding after a few too many cocktails to the Anniston/Lopez character and they share a short and soft kiss.. The next morning they both wake up mortified but lucky for everybody Rosie Perez is added to the ensemble for a few laughs and there is a cameo by the dude who married Courtney Cox as the bumbling Best Man who seeing the groom's dilemma rallies the troops and gets him to the church on time.
At the end the MOH and the Groom see each other at the alter and he mouths 'I love you" to her while his bride-to-be walks down the aisle. The tension builds as he will have to either run or go through with it but lucky for everybody one of the guests played by Pauly Shore and Rob Schneider accidentally light the hair of the dude who played the dude who played Luther Van Dam on fire as he holds a lighter up in tribute to Free Bird while the bride makes it down the aisle. Luther runs into the aisle where he trips Craig T Nelson and barrels over the chick from That 70's show chick causing such chaos and sparking a fire which forces the wedding to be delayed. The tension builds as Anniston/Lopez and McConaughey meet in the bridal suite and decide to run off while Lohan does lines of coke off Pauly Shore's bare ass.
The movie ends with a beach wedding with Anniston/Lopez in white marrying a sandal wearing topless McConaughey with Perez, Luther, Mr Courtney Cox and Mini Me all in attendance.
Fade to black
Then they showed Maid of Honor 2, the honeymoon which was equally dreadful.
