As the romantic comedy "The Wedding Date," starring Debra Messing, hits theaters tomorrow, here are the sweetest wedding-themed movies around.
"Leprechaun 2" - 1994 On his 2,000th birthday, the Leprechaun has to find the descendent of the bride he chose on his 1,000th birthday and marry her. The treasure-hoarding Leprechaun is played masterfully by Warwick Davis, the dude that played Willow and the Ewok Wicket in "The Return of the Jedi."
"The Bachelor" - 1999 The plot of this film, which is very similar to a "Three Stooges" episode, forces Chris O'Donnell, in a stipulation of his grandfather's will, to find a bride by his 30th birthday (which happens to be 6:05 p.m. the day after the movie takes place) in order to inherit $100 million. Too bad he picks Rene? "Face Implosion" Zellwegger. I bet that's some serious cold mountin' if you know what I'm sayin'.
"My Best Friend's Wedding" - 1997 Julia Roberts should have said: "I never knew that I had always loved someone until they finally got over me and met someone new and were ready to start a new life with them. Now, I just have to comically try to ruin his life and halt his wedding to satisfy my own selfishness. Isn't it cute and funny?" Or not.
"The Wedding Crashers" - 2005 The upcoming comedy co-stars frat-pack regulars Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson, the best combination since vanilla and Coke, as two bachelors who cruise weddings to pick up chicks. In order to prepare for this movie, which opens this summer, you should see Vaughn (aka Double V) as the villainous Wes Mantooth in "Anchorman," and Wilson as the hilariously inept criminal "mastermind" Dignan in Wes Anderson's debut film, "Bottle Rocket."
"Baywatch: Hawaiian Wedding" - 2003 This is the fabulous television movie of the popular show that promotes aquatic life-saving techniques. David Hasselhoff has been suffering from amnesia and goes back to Hawaii to get married to Allison, who is secretly in cahoots with the ultra-evil Mason Sato. Hasselhoff's ex-wife, Neely, then has to break up the wedding and reunite with her ex-husband. The oh-so-complicated life on the beach must be hard.
