He probably shoulders blame for the movie not living up to expectations, but we don't know how much it's him and how much it's circumstances beyond his control. <br /><br />At least Mark Duplass got a paycheck and will use that money to finance better movies for he and his brother to work on, like "The One I Love." :-)J.M.

Co-screenwriter Jeremy Slater was (along with Devin Faraci) one of my favorite voices over at CHUD.com, a site I stopped visiting after they left and it became a place of seemingly constant free-flowing negativity and hostility. I've been really excited to see what Slater does as a screenwriter, but from all sources this appears to be an inauspicious start. I haven't had time to go see it (or anything else for that matter) yet but I want to support smart-and-funny-internet-movie-guy-gets-to-make-movies. Also, Olivia Wilde.
