    Movie: After the Sunset
    Cast: Salma Hayek, Pierce Brosnon, Woody Harrelson
    The cover and title maks it look like a romantic movie but in truth it is about robbery and even has guns.

    Movie: DIVORCING JACK
    Title sounds like some sort of relationship movie but it is actually full of shooting, killing, blood, gangsters/spies, etc. and comedy. Title comes from a misunderstanding of what a dying man is saying. Set in Ireland and also stars Australia's Rachel Griffiths in a nun's outfit!!!! Great show - and that's from a girl!!!

    The Constant Gardener, i hired it with my partner thinking it was love story about gardening with Rachel Weis and Ralph Fiennes . Turned out to be a miserable conspiracy murder movie. Barely any gardens and the romantic interest is murdered. I should been warned by the brown cover, boys movies brown, girls movies white and pink.

    Another deceptive Clive Owen release: "Beyond Borders." Also starring Angelina Jolie, the DVD cover makes it look like an epic romance, "The Notebook"-style. It is, in fact, an epic romance in a more "Blood Diamond"-style.

    Other suggestions: "Proof of Life" starring romantic comedy stalwart Meg Ryan, with Russell Crowe; Woody Allen's "Scoop," starring Hugh Jackman and Scarlett Johansen; and (this may get past the girlfriend censor on title alone) the truly excellent "Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang" starring Robert Downey Jr. and Val Kilmer.

    Great segment but I think you have only seen half the pineapple.
    Girls can be sneakier than guys at times and I think we guys came second in a 2 horse race on this one, I had an ex who was pretty cut when I picked moulin rouge which I thought was about ye old strippers, she knew it was a love story and she let me leave the video shop believing it was my movie that she didn't want to see. (Obviously if i had read the back or seen the names of the actors I would of cottoned on but I have always lived on poorly made snap decisions)

    We must be careful of the rockmelon movie, looks hard on the outside and has a tough name but on the inside its all mush, nay we need a list of rockmelon movies so we know when they are trying to outsneak the sneakers

    Examples of rockmelons
    Chocolat
    Expect: Food
    Get: Love story

    Pearl Harbour
    Expect: war
    Get: love story

    Sweet Home Alabama
    Expect: Movie about an awesome rock band and their awesome song Get: you geussed it love story

    I listen to your show as I workout every day love it but some thing has spiked my interest.
    Women are getting prettier!! what the!
    I think it is hard enough for us average girls
    to get a nice date as it is without the younger generation being even better looking.
    I belive it is your duty as some of the AMWBW men (averge men with beautiful women) to help some of us average girls find a good looking man.

    Ask the question are there any good looking men that are not beauty based when selecting a women and lets go speed dating.

    I'm from a place that no one can see me patting my head when your helping the single. lol

    It's your pay back for the beauitful girlfriend you have.

    Hope you can help the average women of melbourne! Its ok I dont have warts or chin hair I'm simlpy not a stunner. can you help?
