I can't speak for the acting ability of the others, but Kristen Wiig in Skeleton Twins and Melissa McCarthy in The Nines were both really fantastic performances. I liked the concept for The Nines a lot, but even though it was long before she blew up, McCarthy was by far the most memorable part. In strict terms of comedy, it's up to each person what they like. A lot of folks don't like Bill Murray at all.

I think the figures could be better, but I'm impressed with the body variety and the likenesses are decent. I guess my question now is marketability and distribution. This is a huge leap for Mattel if they plan to put it in the boy aisle. However, if they put them in girl aisle, there could be controversy. I'll e interested to see how they play it. Will they also make Barbie versions? Regardless of opinions about the movies or figures, this is revolutionary in terms of what it is offering as a toy line.
