Other screen fare: Rock Star (2001), She's the One (1996). Aniston being drawn to a romantic self-help guru? Is life imitating art? When they fall for one another, he realizes he hasn't got over his dead wife. Aniston plays a woman who falls for a romantic self-help author played by Aaron Eckhart. Next role: Brand New Day (September 2009). It will make you give up on love, and sign-up for the nearest priesthood or nunnery. If watching the Ross-Rachel saga was tedious, try watching another, far more insufferable Aniston character live with her insufferable ex-boyfriend in a bid to keep their shared, snazzy condo. Worst role: The Break-Up with Vince Vaughn. (With a shout out for appearing in the cult comedy Office Space.) But if Kevin James can have a lucrative film career, then Perry should not give up hope yet.įriend: Rachel Green, the ubiquitous hairdo-styling, self-centred, on-and-off-again Ross dating waitress.īest role: The Good Girl, where Aniston showed some acting chops playing a mundane, unhappy woman who gets caught up in an illicit affair with a young grocery story clerk. The bottom line: The ill-fated Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip was his best post-Friends work to date - but, alas, it was on the small screen. Other screen fare: Hoosiers II: Senior Year (2005), The Ron Clark Story (2006), The Whole Ten Yards (2004). We're not sure which fate is worse, but Efron's fawning fan base are bound to help Perry's box-office fortunes. Only this time he is somehow transferred back into the body of his 17-year-old self - who just happens to be Zac Efron of High School Musical fame. Next role: Perry plays another washed-up, miserable loser whose life did not work out as planned. Secondly, the film deserves damnation for sullying the good-name of a decent Elvis Presley song.
#Friends gag reel season 9 movie
This movie is Perry's worst if only for the sheer implausibility of Salma Hayek ever having a one-night stand with him, subsequently leading to a surprise pregnancy, and a surprise marriage. And seeing a Friends star in a non-cliched rom-com script goes a long way, too. Perry is believable as a hapless ordinary guy in over his head - but maybe that's just because he's playing a miserable, suburban Canadian dentist. Perry plays a miserable, suburban Canadian dentist whose life changes when a wanted mafia hit man (Bruce Willis) moves in next door - spawning intrigue, violence, multiple double crossings and romantic triangles. The question always was could Perry's relatively one-dimensional brand of comedy translate to the big screen - where, admittedly, many one-trick ponies have had lucrative careers? As Perry takes another kick at the can, we grade the Friends' movie careers up to this point.īest role: The Whole Nine Yards. But his insecurity-laced, perma-sarcasm could sound a bit like a broken record towards the end of the highly successful series. With Matthew Perry resurfacing in 17 Again this week, it's time to consider whether Friends' "friends" were only of the fairweather variety.Īs breadwinning, social misfit Chandler Bing, Perry easily racked up the sitcom's most one-liners, quips and punchlines. The title song blared "I'll be there for you," but audiences and critics have been largely lukewarm to the big screen endeavours of TV's former favourite Friends. Jennifer Coolidge is on the receiving end of an A+ blooper.They give grades to the cast! And talk about their work! That’s not a blooper.Ĭut to 1:14 for the cutest interaction between LeBlanc and Schwimmer. Again and again and again.ĭanny DeVito takes Jen Aniston’s paycheck.Īnd Matt Perry has a mustache. The very famous “pivot” scene took quite a bit of work.

“You don’t have to be Jewish to be helped by Chabad.” You’re not supposed to be able to talk yet, you adorable thing! Or the scene where the child star playing Ben can’t act. Monica and Chandler break the fourth wall. Joey’s pep talk was a bit too much for her.

Phoebe plays Nurse Lisa and Lisa (Kudrow) can’t stop laughing. (And check out our 17 other days of Friends calendar here.)

Take a look back at some of the series’ standout bloopers and gags. Once only clips you could see on special-edition DVD sets, now YouTube has them all. While their scripted lines were hilarious, watching these beloved actors blunder, improvise, and ultimately reveal a bit of their off-screen personalities and friendships before a delighted live studio audience elicits a special kind of belly laugh. The bouncy comedic timing on Friends set a decade-long standard for sitcom dialogue, but as expected, the cast inevitably flubbed a line now and again.
