The House Bunny (2008)

Originally watched May 27, 2026.

Anna Faris is a gem. I really adore everything about her. Queen of the airheads forever. She’s the best thing about this movie hands down.

We honestly have a really great cast here. Emma Stone always delivers. I was going to say that she was really in the zone back then but honestly did she ever exit the zone? She’s still on a total winning streak, even if she’s playing a totally different type these days.

The House Bunny was my white whale as a child. The first time I saw the trailer was sitting in my best friend’s mom’s bed watching tv and both of our minds were blown. Obviously my parents didn’t let me watch it which only made it MORE appealing until one day I stopped caring altogether. Was it worth the wait? Eh. I’m glad I finally saw this one. I do think it would’ve radically changed the trajectory of my life if I had seen it back in 2008. At the time my life’s goal was to become a bimbo scientist. I thought it would be so cool to be grown up and sexy and smart. Now I’m grown up…not that sexy, not that smart. Oh well. Let’s not think about it too hard.
