New Trailer: Baby Mama

I was catching up on a few missed days of PopWatch this morning, and I came across this preview for ‘Baby Mama,’ a movie I didn’t even know was being made:

See it here

I have to agree with Marc Bernardin about the preview. There’s some definite promise here, even if the trailer isn’t a complete laugh riot. Maybe this is just one of those rare comedies that doesn’t give away all its best material in the trailer.

It’s pretty easy to put faith in this movie because it’s got two of TVs funniest actresses, Amy Poehler and Tina Fey. These two have been great in some supporting film roles, and the chance to see what they can do carrying a movie is exciting. Plus, Marc’s right about another thing. You don’t see many movies that will just let women be funny. Usually female leads are relegated to the realm of the romantic comedy or the drama. Hopefully this is the beginning of a new trend.
