<IMG SRC="/images/archivesart/40yearoldvirgin.jpg" WIDTH=200 BORDER=0 ALIGN=RIGHT>Forty-year-old Andy Stitzer (Steve Carell) works at a big-box electronics retailer, lives in a nice apartment with an extensive action-figure collection, and rides his bike to work every day. No wonder he's a virgin. His friends take his virginity personally and vow to do whatever it takes to get him laid.

<IMG SRC="/images/archivesart/sexandthecity.jpg" WIDTH=200 BORDER=0 ALIGN=RIGHT>Four years after the end of the hit TV series <I>Sex and the City</I>, life continues for Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker), Samantha Jones (Kim Cattrall), Charlotte York (Kristen Davis), and Miranda Hobbs (Cynthia Nixon). Carrie and Mr. Big (Chris Noth) are taking their relationship to the next level; Samantha has moved from New York to Hollywood with her boyfriend of five years, Smith Jarrod (Jason Lewis); Charlotte is happily married to Harry (Evan Handler) with their three-year-old daughter; and Miranda is struggling through a less-than-happy marriage to Steve (David Eigenberg) in hell (aka Brooklyn).

<IMG SRC="/images/archivesart/fatboy.jpg" WIDTH=200 BORDER=0 ALIGN=RIGHT>Minutes before his wedding, Dennis Doyle (Simon Pegg) leaves his pregnant fianc&#233;, Libby (Thandie Newton), at the altar. Five years later, he realizes he made the biggest mistake of his life and wants her back. Unfortunately, Libby has moved on and is dating Whit (Hank Azaria), a super-successful financial manager with a great personality and even better abs. Dennis, on the other hand, is overweight and employed as a security guard at a London mall. In order to prove his worth to Libby, Dennis decides to enter the same London Marathon that Whit has been training for&#151;the big difference is that Dennis has only three weeks to prepare for the grueling 26-mile race.
