Long-time practitioners of pop culture discussion will understand this one thing: the best conversations rarely stay on topic.

Tune in each week as The Plotaholics begin with a film and let the conversation take them where it will.Join the Discord! https://discord.gg/tyjMeVReAD

Just Friends

Episode 182
The Annual Plotaholics Holiday Block begins today!
This week's yuletide content is 2005's Romantic Comedy 'Just Friends,' starring a pre-Deadpool Ryan Reynolds, and a post-Varsity Blues Amy Smart as Chris and Jamie. Chris was the obese best friend of Jamie who friend-zoned him eternally during graduation. Ten years later, Chris is forced back home and realizes that he has some unfinished emotional baggage toward Jamie and his hometown.
Costarring the great Julie Haggarty, Chris Kline, and Anna Faris, this film teaches one important lesson, 'Being nice is not currency for sex.' And it shouldn't be viewed as such.
Kick back, relax, and let's talk about Just Friends.
