Justin Timberlake, Mila Kunis On Sex, Dating In Elle

While most people have, in large part, rolled their eyes at the obviously titled romantic comedy, "Friends with Benefits," calling it, more or less, the exact same movie as January's "No Strings Attached," there seems to be a very particular, and distinctive, difference: raunch.

This versioni of that age old platonic friends having sex until they realize there is something more to it tale stars Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis, who, historically, have been much more willing to play dirty than dopelganger stars Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher (Oscars and step-children will do that to you). The film seems to capture that higher (or lower) lever of smut, and in a new feature in Elle, the pair emphasize their raw openness.

To say the least.

Addressing the question at hand -- whether friends can, indeed, have benefits without more -- Kunis gets scientific. And erotic.

"Ultimately, it ends when someone wants to go and get serious with somebody. More times than not, a person catches feelings and somebody gets hurt," she says. "When a female orgasms, a hormone gets released. I've never met a girl who can have sex without an ounce of feeling."

Timberlake has his own strategy for avoiding that problem: totally disgusting the girl he's involved with.

"I had a date ask me one time if I had found God. I'm a sick human being -- I mean, I answered, 'Yeah, he's in my pants.' So, the date didn't go that much longer because my date thought that was crass, and I thought that asking me about God was crass."

To be fair, most people, on a date with Justin Timberlake, may have been not so much disgusted as suddenly religious.

It's so weird to me when they make the same movie concept so close together. Like remember when K-9 cop came out, there was Turner and Hooch like a few months later? I know Hollywood is basically bankrupt of new ideas and things will only get funded that they are pretty sure will get a huge return, but it's just so more on display when this movie and No Strings Attached come out in the same year. Also, isn't it weird that two people from That 70's Show are in two different movies of the same concept?

Every year studios do this. It's like one studio lost the bid for the script (that turns out to be the hit) and does everything it can to find a similar script out there. We don't pay that much attention because one is usually good and the other we quickly forget about.

Armageddon and Deep Impact
DANTE'S PEAK and VOLCANO
A Bug's Life and ANTZ

Actually, the copycatting isn't as prevalent lately because most of the blockbusters are comic book based or classic movie reboots. But that in itself could be the copycat'ing. 'You did Batman, so I'll do Superman'...

Yeah, I mean, what could be more crass than asking a date about God? Jeez. It's not like you need to know anything about the person. Just @#$ 'em at the end of the evening. Right?

"have been much more willing to play dirty than dopelganger stars Natalie Portman and Ashton Kutcher (Oscars and step-children will do that to you)."

WTF? Did ya ever see a Kutcher movie called "Spread?" One of the raunchiest "mainstream" movies ever made.

Wow.

They've been touting this movie, over and over again, for at least a year.

I'm sick of it already, and haven't even seen it.

Except that Justin Timberlake is ugly (in my opinion). He's funny and talented but really unattractive.

Justin Timberlake must wake up every morning thanking his lucky stars that he's Justin Timberlake.

It can't be more over the top than the scene with him and Cameron Diaz in Bad Teacher. That, was a hilarious train wreck

I did not want to see the Kutcher/Portman movie bc I don't like either of them.
I do want to this one (I KNOW it is drivel, but sometimes all I need is mindless entertainment) bc I like both JT and MK (whom I met while I was an extra on "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" and she is a cutie pie)....

Maybe a crime drama would give Justin some acting range.

He was in Alpha Dog. he did OK in it

You know, he was okay in it, but I loved how Ben Foster just ran away with the movie. I just want to see JT doing films that don't remind me of an SNL sketch.
