There must have been some 'Chick Flicks' you liked. Fess up.

i love bette:loveya:

...with Harrison Ford or Silvester Stallone or whatever. Same shit.

i Love Lesbian porn.

Things with Bruce Willis, Ahhhhnold, Steven Seagal, etc, leave me totally cold. I tend to go for things like "Shakespeare in Love" or "Election", or else musicals or quirky comedies like "The Producers". But my fave film is "A Man for All Seasons", which isn't exactly an action movie. I guess you might call it and the others "chick flicks", that is, if one can divide movies into only two sexes.

I'm not up enough on my lesbian porn to comment.

:cry: There. I said it.

:9

And...Holly Hunter in that "girl" dress! :9:9:9

Good movie!

Holly Hunter - always outstanding :9
John Goodman was a great comedy relief, too.

With Christian Slater

:P

there, you got it out of me. Happy ? :P

and annette benning as his love interest.

written by Sorkin, who started the West Wing.

don't you!

:P

sniffa! :D:thumbsup:

in your mental cave, and they start shooting rockets at you just like any other sales pamphlets. Then you have to hold your breath, and come back out, reborn as a real woman, and go take on "The Man" who looks a lot like Brian Dennehey.

Which is really odd, because I usually hate Adam Sandler as much as I hate chick flicks.

The ultimate chick flick. There are no men in the picture.

"The Color Purple"...I like a lot of foreign flicks about family life too-I usually don't watch mindless action flicks nor porn--that puts me at least one standard deviation away from most of my gender in US.

I love historical dramas and some opera. Sometimes my eyes are tired from reading and I only listen to the dvd's my wife puts on.

In essence.......it's a chick flick. And a damn good one too.

But I do love it.

It's about getting a girl. In the end it's all about getting the girl. Don't you remember the line.

"Long, slow, deep wet kisses that last three days." That's not baseball baby. That's fundamental chick-flickedness.

...but then I saw your post and I thought, yeah I liked Little Women too.

Can't get enough of them.

She's All That.
10 Thing I Hate About You. (I have a weakness for teen romance movies.)
Notting Hill.

as that term is usually defined. As Goldmund pointed out a "Chick Flick" is to women what an action packed testosterone adventure is to men. Both tend to have thin plots, thin characters, bad acting, and trite themes. That doesn't mean I'm not sometimes in the mood for something junky, sometimes I am. But I'm afraid to admit when I am in the mood for such a flick I'm far more likely to go for Terminator 2 than the latest Richard Gear film. I bet most women would rather choose the latter over the former. This says nothing about the ability of men to connect with emotional themes or the inability of women to do otherwise, it's simply movies catering to our respective base biologies. I can tell you I'd much rather watch a plain and simple Good Movie than either a "testosterone flick" or a "chick flick". A number of movies that have been listed in this thread are simply good movies and don't deserve the label "chick flick".

I define it as a "chick flick". I liked it a lot.

but it is awesome regardless.

I found that to be an enjoyable movie.

Does "Speed" with Keanu and Sandra count? ;)

Granted, the "chick" in question wound up as dinner, but that's just nit-picking if you ask me.

I still lose it when they're looking for the cat in the rain.

but then again, I'm a movie fan who can enjoy both "My Dinner With Andre" and "Charlies Angels" on the same weekend. Heh, I guess that last makes some of you suspect my standards for a "good movie", lol, but I'm sure some will understand.

I'd list some "chick flicks" I like, but I seldom even think of a movie in those terms, so off the top of my head, nothing even comes to mind.

and "Sleepless in Seattle." Hate to admit to the last one.

Julia Stiles :loveya:

I will confess to loving that movie. Sentimental value to it as well: it was my first date with my wife (going on 15 years now). It's a good movie to watch with a future spouse.

I cryed and cryed.

It will help me be more sensitive...

Sleepless in Seattle

I have no problem with my testosterone levels, secure in my manhood, but I'm a movie fan and if a movie is done WELL, no matter the genre, I enjoy it.

Now, for chick flicks that totally stink as movies:

Life, or something like it, with Angelina Jolie was the worst piece of crap I've ever seen masquerading as a chick flick.

Anything with tits treats in it.

the guy got some action afterwards. :)

2nd Best romantic comedy EVER (the first is Annie Hall, but that's less of a chick flick, I'd say).

There's one or two others that are palatable.

Funniest line ever.

:shrug: I'm one of those "Alan Alda" throw backs from the 70's

I'm into politics, come from the north but loved living in the South so it spoke to me. I also love Reese Witherspoon.

Emma
Kate & Leopold

even I can't say that with a straight face
