Pictures:





















I am so excited about this movie! I just finished reading the novel, and it's so quirky and fun.

I have to admit that I wasn't able to picture Scarlett Johansson as Annie Braddock, but I've gotten used to the idea. After watching the trailer and looking at the photo stills, I think she's going to be awesome in the movie! I'd always thought of her as the blonde bombshell type, but it's pleasantly surprising how normal and cute she seems.

I hope the movie doesn't mutilate the novel, but I have a feeling it'll be great.

...and I LOVE Chris Evans (from Fantastic Four) as the Harvard Hottie.

Hmmmm..... I'll watch this for Scarlett.... was never interested in the book though because I was never really interested in the writing style of the authors... I had read one of their other books and wasn't really that impressed...

I just saw the trailer and LOVE IT
I think that this will be one of my fav. movies soon
I must read the book!
Cute
I also think that I will potray Scarlett a new way!

this was one of my favorite books as a teenager... i think they made the right decision casting scarlett and chris (lolol perfect score, anyone?) but it seems they also made a lot of changes, starting with the character's name, and, it seems, the focus of the storyline itself... oh well, i hope it'll still be enjoyable to watch...

lol i want to read the book, i remember seeing the making of this movie like last year, and i cant wait to see it, haha it looks simply divine and i think scarlett is soo pretty

OMG... chris evans is awesomely hwattt!

this is a new side to scarlett... much watch.. looks cute!

I just watched the trailer. It looks interesting and funny. Chris Evans looks goood in this movie. looking forward to it.

I have a feeling this is going to be one good movie.

And I'm a fan of Scarlett Johansson too.

read the book and enjoyed it.
i felt bad for mrs. X near the end... just a teeny bit.
but not so much.


i really really felt bad for the little kid tho.. so sad

i read this book way before it became a bestseller.
so...i'm glad the book became a hit.
i really love it.

so...i think i'm gonna watch this movie.

Hmm.... the Chris dude looks so hot. The movie looks so predictable but it could be nice.

the trailer was very nice:)
seems like a sweet movie, will watch!

yeah... karma

i saw the trailer and absolutely LOVEDD it!! watching it the same day as becoming jane! ^^

i just saw the trailer!! haha
now i cant wait to see it!
i must read the book! lol

I really liked the book. Hopefully, the movie will be just as good. The trailer had some really funny scenes.

just saw the preview on TV and can't wait even more
i keep forgetting that this is a book!

The book was cute, but yeah I didn't picture Scarlett as Nanny. OOoh, Chris Evans as H.H. Definetely gonna watch this.

I'm so excited for this movie! Chris Evans.. HELLOO ! I honestly don't remember anything from the book though.. :x

ahhhh i love this book! i read it when it first came out so i can't really remember much about what happened though. haha

I always thought anne hathaway should do it, and I really hate sj as an actress. Still not liking this.

Chris Evans is way too pretty.

that's who i pictured when i read the novel too. she just seems more plausibly earnest and i think the whole gorgeous-but-possibly-gawky thing works for the nan character too. scarlett johansson is okay... i liked her a lot in "lost in translation"... not so much in other movies. laura linney as mrs. X will be AWESOME, though.

im reading the book right now, i absolutely lovee it!!

on my must see movie list!'
143 sj, shes a great actress

Did anyone watch the movie yet??? i came out this past Friday!!!
yeah after reading the book i always picture anne hathaway as the nanny too!

but scarlett is awesome too

sounds interesting
i might just watch it

scarlett is a great actress, but the way they decided to adapt it, the changes they made... they didn't do it for me. i don't know, i expected to be very emotionally involved in the nanny-grayer relationship, as i was when i read the book. i was heartbroken when nanny had to left in the book, but watching the movie i didn't care as much. i just wanted her to get out of there and get with harvard hottie asap (and they put a LOT more emphasis on this relationship than they ever did in the book, which also didn't feel right). i don't wanna sound like a purist, cos i'm really not, it's just they didn't have great character or narrative development and i don't think they captured the whole nannying experience from the right angle... anthropology? really? don't get me wrong, it's a cute movie, but in the end i think it was trying to be too many things and ended up being nothing beyond a cute movie.

reminds me of the movie with brittany murphy and dakota fanning.. uptown girls?

yes, i liked Uptown Gilrs!

I just started reading the book and can't wait to see the movie too

i loved the book so much that i read it twice! its really too bad that the movie is getting horrible reviews, as weary as i am about adaptations, i was actually looking forward to this one.
alot of people have commented that scarlett johansson is not very sutible for this type of role, i havent seen the film yet but i think she's definetely at her best as sort of worldweary-beyond-her-years, sarcastic and wry type characters. she should leave the earnest and brighteyed types for anne hathaway.

is it as good as the book?
i felt sad at the end of the book for the little boy

Totally waiting to watch it!
I can't wait, seems like a really funny and cute one.

need to watch this......it looks pretty good!!

I remember this. It was filmed during my senior year in high school around my area. I couldn't get through cause it was blocked. =/

It was a cute movie. Loved it, and I love Chris Evans. TOTAL HOTTIE. I don't know why he and Jessica Biel broke up.

That movie was a piece of crap, now I don't know if I should watch this one....

I really liked the book...
so I was really glad that they would make it into a movie^_^
plus there's Chris Evans

Just saw it yesterday.
It's entertaining.
Totally love Havard Hottie. =]
Scarlett was really good in the movie. I thought it'd be weird at first with Scarlett and the whole nanny thing, but it turned out pretty good.

Good comedy movie, too bad there weren't much romance. They look cute together.

aww.. i thought it was based on the book i read.. The Nanny by Melissa Nathan.. :[ i would've liked it more.

too bad you couldn't get through but Chris Evans dated Biel?

Anyway, it was a cute movie and Greyer was too cute.
I must admit that I wanted it to be longer and what not.
Harvard Hottie!

The end was great though..
I teared up many times through out the movie too

I haven't read the book so I don't know if it's any good but I wasn't really impressed with the movie. The intro was a bit weird so it took me awhile to get into it and I felt like the Nanny-Grayer relationship was just a tad awkward. I don't know.. for me, The Nanny Diaries was just so-so.

i just watched the movie yesterday and i thought it was the cutest thing ever! especially the little boy ^____^

lol ZzzZZZzzZZZZ chick flick ZZzzZZZz

Why am I hearing so many bad things about this movie? Is it just because the book-lovers are making comparisons?!
I rented it, but I'm kinda bummed out because everyone told me it's not that good. Oh well.


Can someone tell me if Chris Evan comes out a lot in the movie, since he doesn't in the book?

^ i think he did. and he's hot LOL

i haven't read the book ... the movie was okay. i adore the little boy but i don't think scarlett was right for the role though. she wasn't charismatic enough for me.

^ Oh good, Chris Evans is so hot !

I don't know, I don't have a problem with Scarlett being cast as the nanny, maybe I'm biased because she's one of my favorite actresses, lol.
I'm just surprised how plain she can look. I guess she's the type who can pull off both plain/awkward and stunningly gorgeous whatever she feels like. Like Anne Hathaway.

I just watched this, and it was enjoyable to watch! Probably because I had nothing better to do, and I was watching it on the small screen.

I'll have to admit that the story seemed a little underdeveloped at times, but overall it was a pleasant chic flick. I just wish the movie paid more attention to the nanny-kid relationship.. It didn't really show HOW they got so close, rather seemed to focus on the mother and her problems with the husband. After all, it is supposed to be a NANNY story. I didn't really care for the kid at all.


Impressed with Scarlett. She can pull off any role seriously. This movie especially proved that she doesn't always have to play a sex goddess or a sultry love interest type character. Was surprised by how innocent she looked and acted.

i watched this two days ago. i thought it was enjoyable. it was kind of boring at first but it got better. scarlett and the little boy are so cute together. and i loved loved loved scarlett's little video message!!! ahahah the nanny cam!

just watched it yesterday night, and i loved it. i adore/love 'grover' even more my little sibling started crying out of nowhere when the boy was chasing scarlet, so she wouldn't go home. haha. the movie was cute.

i enjoyed the movie. interesting way of looking at how "wealthy/rich" people live and how their lives are like...

anyway, i really only enjoy chris evans! yep! he's a hottie!
