Good movie but it would be better if they showed more scenes with her friends instead of showing ted and long duk dong.

Well, the film take place over two days, not really sure when they could have added them. They show her with her best friend at school and at the dance, not sure what else they could have added that would of benefited the film.

I'm surprised they weren't there for the wedding scene

If her parents were paying more attention to her they would be there.

Ginny was a bit snobbish so I don't think she would have wanted Sam's friends at her wedding. Also, the dad would not have encouraged Sam to bring her friends because he was concerned about the wedding costs. Usually, the more people that attend the wedding and reception, the more expensive things are.

That is true. I guess she could've been 81st the house party.
