There’s a reason why they’re called “chick flicks” and that’s because they appeal to chicks. Nothing wrong with it. Shoot em ups often don’t appeal to women, and that’s okay too.
I never watched the series but we’re having a girls night out this weekend, we’re going to a theater that serves food and cocktails and we’re watching SATC simply because it will be an entertaining evening out for the chicks!
And as far as the “solitary hero” theory—ever heard of Lord of the Rings, Mr. Moore?
I hope you have a fun time.
Being a guy... Well all I can say is the food and cocktails would have to be good and plentiful.
Yeah it just varies person to person. I’m on the other side of things. I’ll take a shoot ‘em up over a chick flick any day.
I wasn’t a fan of the series...didn’t have HBO...and only caught a couple of episodes in syndication. That being said, my friend asked me to go with her to see SATC this past weekend. I really enjoyed the movie! As you said, it’s a “chick flick.” I don’t live like those characters nor do I want to, but isn’t going to a movie about ESCAPISM???
Have fun with your girlfriends!
