Chick Flick: The question of whether or not this film is one is a good way to start an argument.Blonde, Brunette, Redhead: Annie and Rita (Blondes), Helen, Lillian and Megan (Brunettes) and Becca (Redhead).Billing Displacement: The posters for the film ran with the bridesmaids theme, depicting all five of them (plus the bride) which was why Chris O'Dowd (Officer Rhodes) doesn't appear, despite playing an arguably more important character than Wendi McLendon-Covey (Rita) or Ellie Kemper (Becca).Bad News in a Good Way: "We'd like to invite you to no longer live with us anymore.".And That Little Girl Was Me: Lampshaded.Played with, in that it's revealed Helen has her own problems in her life and has been overshadowing and muscling in on things more as an (admittedly rather thoughtless) attempt to over-compensate for her own unhappiness rather than maliciousness towards Annie or deliberate attempts at oneupmanship. She is also rich and attractive, and Annie feels threatened by her budding friendship with Lillian. She constantly attempts to one-up Annie and is often successful. Always Someone Better: Helen is seemingly this to Annie.Alpha Bitch: Helen later crosses into Lovable Alpha Bitch when we find out she doesn't realize how her over-the-top gestures are affecting people and that she harbors no ill will towards Annie.The Alleged Car: The sad little vehicle that down-at-the-heels Annie is forced to drive around.Acrofatic: Megan is a bit chubby but is very flexible.The Ace: How Helen appears most of the time.PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples.Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted.Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so.
