Wow, 15 years already? Time flies. That movie was hilarious. Melissa McCarthy stealing the scene in the airplane is still one of the funniest things I've seen. Hope they do something special on stage.

While the reunion is nice, I wish the Oscars would focus a bit more on celebrating global cinema, not just Hollywood. The presenter list is very star-studded though. Conan as host should be interesting!

Good to see a comedy film getting its due at the Oscars. We need more recognition for the genre. Also, the fact that it was written by the women in the cast is inspiring. More power to them!

Honestly, these reunion segments sometimes feel forced. But for Bridesmaids, I'll make an exception. Absolute riot of a film. My friends and I still quote it. "Help me, I'm poor!" 😂
