Line #18 YMMV/Bridesmaids


1	* EnsembleDarkhorse: Megan. Creator/MelissaMcCarthy was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for a reason.
2	* FridgeBrilliance: Megan thinks the guy beside her on the plane is an air marshal because he has no carry-on luggage. How would she know? [[spoiler:She mentions later in the film that she has top-level security clearance, so it's most likely she's seen his name/face already on a list of air marshals.]]
3	* FollowTheLeader: A running joke about the movie “I liked it, but I liked it a lot better the first time it came out when it was called “The Hangover”.
4	* HoYay: The close friendship between Annie and Lillian comes off as this.
5	** The way Annie and Helen compete over who can impress Lillian best.
6	** Rita and Becca getting drunk and sharing a kiss on the airplane.
7	** Annie lampshading the closeness between Helen and Lillian at one point during a breakdown.
8	--->'''Annie:''' What woman gives another woman a trip to Paris?! Am I right? Les~bian!♪ We're all thinking it, aren't we?
9	* JerkassWoobie:
10	** Annie. She suffers ''a lot'' of terrible misfortunes throughout the movie but a decent amount of them are self-inflicted by her own reckless and selfish behavior. Plenty of her problems could be avoided, or at least downplayed, if she took more responsibility for her actions and didn't have quite as much of a victim complex. This makes it that much more heartwarming in the film when she finally owns up to her actions.
11	** Helen can also be considered this, as it's revealed that she keeps muscling in on the wedding as a way of compensating for her own miserable and lonely life.
12	* {{Moe}}: Becca. But seeing as she's played by [[Series/TheOfficeUS Ellie Kemper]], this should be expected.
13	%%* OneSceneWonder:
14	%%** Lillian's dad in both of his scenes is pretty memorable.
15	%%** Annie's Crazy Awesome mother.
16	%%** Annie's roommates.
17	* SignatureScene: The food poisoning scene was one of the most talked-about scenes all ''year.''
18	* {{Squick}}:
19	** The aforementioned food poisoning scene in the bridal shop.
20	** Megan and Air Marshal John's post-credit sex scene.
21	* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic:
22	** Helen's reveal of her own insecurities to make the audience see that she isn't the AlphaBitch Annie sees her as can fall flat when one looks back at the rest of the film and realizes just how often she's gone out of her way to upstage and embarrass Annie. May be partly intentional, as just like Annie, Helen has her own problems and doesn't always handle them the best way.
23	** Though it was wrong of Annie to cut off Rhodes the way she did, the way he constantly pushes the bakery issue and even buys a bunch of baking-related supplies, even though it's clearly a sore spot for her, makes him look really insensitive. Sure, he meant well, but he doesn't let the subject drop, even when Annie clearly says she doesn't want to talk about it.
24	** Lillian can come off this way for her attitude towards Annie. Of course she has a lot on her plate with her wedding coming up, but her childhood friend is clearly going through a rough patch in her life and Lillian's anger at her can come off as [[ItsAllAboutMe just being upset that Annie is disrupting her plans]]. Not to mention, it's at least a controversial action, if not a full-on faux-pas, to ask someone to be a bridesmaid or maid of honor without discussing the financial commitments of it first.
