Nude Celebs: Miranda Bailey - Should a comedy have a happy ending? Well, it's not a requirement, I suppose, but should a comedy have a gut-wrenching, totally surprising, kill-the-bunny-and-throw-the-baby-out-with-the-bathwater ending? Ehhhhh, maybe not.
2004's Wild Roomies starts off as a pleasant enough if mostly brainless little comedy. After inheriting a large house in L.A., a Texas guy and his girlfriend move into the house. In order to pay the remainder of the mortgage, they take roommates.
It's all predictable light-weight fun, as things turn expectedly chaotic. Five minutes from the end, a turn of events leads to a heartbreaking, totally downer, everyone-in-tears ending. So much for leaving the movie in a happy frame of mind.
