Felt sorry for the girlfriend ..spoiler..


Enjoyed the movie, and got into the Sandler/Anniston relationship...but was wondering how the heck would this finish..when rooting for the leads,but couldn't help think about the sweet innocent girlfriend that loves the man and cares for his kids..also going with the flow of things to be blown off so easy. I thought the relationship was going to end when she told Aniston that he was still in love with her, but no the wedding went ahead...only for her to be jilted at last minute on top of a cliff top!! But hey, like he said at the end everyone was happy...she found a new man that loves "Justin" too from Nsync on the plane home (roll eyes)...most likely gay <cough>. Just seemed like a cop out for her character, I was rooting for her also to have a good happy ending, or at least show an evil side so we wouldn't care. Sure it's just a movie, but even the kids were lying to her...it all seemed liked her feelings didn't matter in the end, and the writers went blah blah blah and she got over it and found the love of her life, the end.

I completely agree with you. She was a major character in this movie who was being duped BIG TIME! She was also very sweet, and in each of her scenes, I felt bad, because she had no idea that there was this big charade going on that she was unaware of. Like you said, it would have been really great to have seen an ugly side to her, which woulld make the audience feel less bad about this whole situation.
And what's up with her meeting a guy who loves N*Sync to the extent that he wears a "i heart justin" necklace?? It would have been way better to have seen her hook up with an actutal N*Sync member, IMO.

The guy she met on the plane was actually her husband in real life...
