Here is the synopsis for “Wanderlust”:
Paul Rudd and Jennifer Aniston star in “Wanderlust”: a raucous comedy from director David Wain (“Role Models”) and producer Judd Apatow (“Knocked Up”) about a couple who leaves the pressures of the big city and joins a freewheeling community where the only rule is to be yourself.
George (Rudd) and Linda (Aniston) are an overextended, stressed-out Manhattan couple. After George is downsized out of his job, they find themselves with only one option: to move in with George’s awful brother in Atlanta.
On the way there, George and Linda stumble upon Elysium: an idyllic community populated by colorful characters who embrace a different way of looking at things. Money? It can’t buy happiness. Careers? Who needs them. Clothes? Only if you want them. Is Elysium the fresh start George and Linda need or will the change of perspective cause more problems than it solves?
The movie trailer for “Wanderlust” can be watched now below.

Elysium
Would you live in the freewheeling community of Elysium? Of course I would! Rinds me of California communes in the 60’s.
Maybe
It would all depend on the people I was there with.
question
I’d visit but not sure what I’d do after a few days
Live there?
I don’t think so. As fun as it might be commune living never works because some people are “more equal” than others.
Nope
I think it would be fun for a vacation but I’m a city boy. I love the daily chaos of the city.
Yes. I enjoy both freedom
Yes. I enjoy both freedom and wheeling.
Elysium, I'm on my way
Hells yes I would…I’ve been longing for the simplicity of kibbutz life every day I’ve been FREEZING in this crazy city. It might get boring and incestuous after a few months, but I’ll deal with that hump (get it?) when it arrives.
I'll pass
I don’t want to subject anybody to my nude body, and rest assured, I would be nude.
Definitely not.
No commune for me. My husband and I adore our privacy, especially after a long work week. We love making waffles and staying in all day and just enjoying eachother’s company and relaxing. Or going to a hollywood chi hookup showing!
Hell yeah I would!
Hell yeah I would! Who wouldn’t?
