Ryan Reynolds: Practice Your Verbal Judo

Ryan Reynolds spends time in New York City promoting his latest romantic comedy, Definitely, Maybe, which has garnered a mediocre 64% on RottenTomatoes.com. (Ryan is back in Los Angeles already.)

Here’s what two respectable publications had to say about the film:

New York Times: “Definitely, Maybe, written and directed by Adam Brooks, is a nimble and winning little romance.”

Hollywood Reporter: “Strong acting from Ryan Reynolds and Abigail Breslin.”

While in the Big Apple, Ryan made an appearance on Live with Regis & Kelly!. How I Met Your Mother star Neil Patrick Harris filled in for Regis. You can watch a clip here.

Co-host Kelly Ripa asked Ryan if he was always a funny guy. Ryan joked, “I’m the youngest of four brothers, so I’m really more of moving target than a brother. You have to learn your verbal judo early to get your punches in.”

HIIII-YAH!

64% on RottenTomatoes is not bad at all for a fun comedy.

Then Sunny, what compelled you to have to post on the thread of someone you don’t like? So insecure you have to make a comment and see your thoughts out there?
Poor Sunny…. no one pays attention to the drab little thing in real life….

I met this guy a few days ago in NYC and well…he wasn’t nice at all. I was totally dissapointed cause I’ve always like him.
