Chick Flicks

rkmsuf · 01-12-2006, 12:51 PM

I was just reliving my experience of going to see Under The Tuscan Sun a couple years ago and got me thinking...what is the chickiest of chick flicks you've ever been forced to see?

(sorry ladies, it's men time)

Caddyshack

st.cronin · 01-12-2006, 12:54 PM

I liked Under the Tuscan Sun. I guess it is a chick flick, but it's actually a good enough movie that I didn't really care.

The soggiest thing I've had to endure was The Notebook.

Butter · 01-12-2006, 12:54 PM

My wife insisted I buy and watch with her Grease.

God, I can't stand that movie.

JeeberD · 01-12-2006, 12:54 PM

I couldn't tell you which one was the worst, but I've seen more than my fair share over the years. But now that I think of it, I was dragged to "Pride and Predjudice" a couple of weeks ago, and that was about as chicky as it gets...

I guess you could make a case for Tuscan Sun just based on the abiltiy to see Diane Lane in a bra but that thing had no other redeeming features that would speak to maleness.

Maple Leafs needs to organize a chick flick draft.

Sweet Home Alabama was bad, but my gf is big into musicals (which I hate and would consider mainly chick flicks) so I'm going with:

Oliver.

Longest three days of my life.

Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.

I tend to like a lot of chick flicks, but this one did me in.

That has to be considered at the top of all the chick flick draft boards.

I cannot believe you said that! That is my #1 all time favorite movie! Your girlfriend has great taste...I sit on the couch, watch that movie and sing all the songs, do some of the dance moves (yes I am a dork) and recite part (ok, most) of the dialogue

I watch it because I have an extreme boner for Olivia Newton John.

PERFECT response to a bizarre post. I think only Hell Atlantic could have come up with a more appropriate one.

One of best friends puts on Mulan Rogue really loud and sings when he's drunk.

Truth about Cats and Dogs.

Stopped going to chick flicks after we got married(thank god).

And Grease is such a lousy ass movie. Wife made me sit through that shit the other day when it was on TV.

rkmsuf · 01-12-2006, 01:34 PM

What about Footloose? Do you classify that as a chick flick? I say yes.

Exhibit A - Kevin Bacon dancing his buns off in an empty warehouse doing all these mitch gaylord gymnastics.

Exhibit B - has a snappy soundtrack

Exhibit C - it's about dancing

I'm getting conflicting opinions on this one.

No. Footloose is not a chick flick.

Is Reality Bites a chick flick?

Are you sure. It seems quite chicky to me. Kevin Bacon takes his shirt off and I really want to see someone punch him in the face in that movie.

As do many women. If I knew a guy that started singing along with that crap, though, I'd lock the door behind him before he got to say "electrifyin'!"

But it's also about standing up to the man, in true 80s style...

Grease is not a chick flick either. It's a musical.

Next.

standing up to the man by dancing feels chicky to me

Do not worry about my qualifications.

stevew · 01-12-2006, 01:41 PM

I thought of another one.

The Cutting Edge. Chick flick and it has Ice Skating in it. So chicky it could probably make violent sexual offenders docile, due to its utter testosterone zapping powers.

It also has hockey, the most manly of sports, in it. Even a few seconds of hockey is enough to make a movie non-chicky.

I don't think you've really seen this film. Honolulu back me up here.

I got your back, rksmurf. The small bit of hockey does not save this film from being a chick flick. It's about a hockey player becomming a figure skater and is a romantic comedy.

Schmidty · 01-12-2006, 01:45 PM

One of my all-time favorite movies is Meet Me in St. Louis. It doesn't get more chicky then that.

I also really like Some Kind of Wonderful for some reason.
