Anyone wanna fess up to liking any of these movies? "Mean Girls" was amusing and loaded with hot chicks and "Love Actually" is the most watchable chick flick I've seen.

[ruckstande]

Mean Girls is a chick flick? I thought it was a comedy. Oh well. I'll give you two not on the list. Return to Me and Music and Lyrics. There I said it. Now go fuck yourselves.

[Motor Head]

The only movie on that list I would even watch is Titanic and even then I would prefer to fast forward to the Kate Winslet being nekkid, jerk off. Pause. Clean up mess, and fast forward to death and destruction.

The rest of those movies would make me grow a vagina. I had to sit through "My Big Fat Greek Ass" when my wife got to pick the movie on date night and I wanted to open my wrist with a sharpened edge of a box of popcorn.

[kloraferm]

My ex gf actually got me to see The Birdcage. I cannot say how much I never want to see that again.

[Absolutely]

Out of all of those movies, I can honestly say I've only seen "Pretty Woman".
I will however never turn off the movie "She's All That", which seems a little chick flicky.

[JoeyDVDZ]

Ghost: like it. Pretty Woman: Saw it, didn't care about it. Mean Girls: Hot chicks, duh!

The rest, nope. Never saw, never will.

[DocSavage]

I got one that I can admit to: Sandra Bullock in Hope Floats.

she innnnntices me.

[BravoSierra]

The only movie I've seen on that list is Ghost. And that was YEARS ago.

My chick flick that I secret like...... "What Women Want" with Mel Gibson. I always watch it when TNT shows it.

[Jables2002]

I love "Amelie", which is a double whammy, cause it is a foreign movie too. Also, I really liked "Waitress", but it has Nathan Fillion in it, so can you blame me?

[25133WhooOoAH]

Titanic, Bridget Jone's Diary, Love Actually are all good movies.

The Birdcage? Is def not a ChickFlick and I think its hilarious...

[BravoSierra]

Also, was I the only one that liked "Jersey Girl?"

[kloraferm]

The only movie I've seen on that list is Ghost. And that was YEARS ago.

My chick flick that I secret like...... "What Women Want" with Mel Gibson. I always watch it when TNT shows it.
I've seen it (didn't hate it)
Saw Ghost...not exactly a fan (although I did kinda like the part when the killer was getting dragged to hell)

[Absolutely]

Also, was I the only one that liked "Jersey Girl?"

I wouldn't say I liked "Jersey Girl", but I have seen it a few times.
Is "Chasing Amy" a Chick-Flick?

And speaking of Sandra Bullock, "Forces of Nature" is on TBS and TNT every week it seems, and I've probably seen it 5 times. It's definitely bad and chicky

[FAngel]

Also, was I the only one that liked "Jersey Girl?"

No, and I wouldn't call it a chick flick at all. It's grossly underappreciated.

I own Moulin Rouge. Throw a tampon at me.

[Steam]

I think that "Mean Girls" and "Love Actually" are both pretty good movies. I don't care about any labels people put on them, they are good.

[Hudson]

Liked when Harry met Sally. That's it.

[kloraferm]

Not sure if it qualifies, but I saw and thought it was ok at best was 'Erin Brokavich)
I didn't hate Moulin Rouge (thought it had some decent scenes)

[DR. Jimcy M.E.]

I always found The Accused funny.

[mikeybot]

Mean Girls and Moulin Rouge(the only other musical I can tolerate other than South Park, Team America and Cannibal). Greek Wedding infuriates me on general principle.

Oh, and dark haired Rachel McAdams > blonde

[AtlantaHardcore]

Mean Girls is a chick flick? I thought it was a comedy.

Of course. :rolleyes:

[NotSoFast]

My Big Fat Greek Wedding was pretty funny back when I saw it.

[Warfarer]

There are plenty of chick flicks that I think are good movies, but none are on that list. Love Actually was a pretty good movie, Mean Girls had it's moments and My Greek Wedding wasn't horrible. Titanic is damn near unwatchable now, I always was high on it until it came on TNT a couple weeks ago and I tried to watch it, terrible. I have never seen a few of them on that list.

[wyattj]

The only chick flick that men should appreciate and love is Bull Durham. Written by a man who played baseball, it has everything right about minor league ball. Drags in the man, the women can like golf ball eyes and her dopey groupie obsession with young men who may earn a huge paycheck.

Other than Kate Winslet naked, there is nothing redeeming about any of the listed chick flicks. Canned or easy laughter, ugly up the pretty girl and then let her have a coming out, girl loses guy, gets him back. I've seen it before, and it sucked ass then.

[jagsfans]

Mean Girls and Moulin Rouge(the only other musical I can tolerate other than South Park, Team America and Cannibal). Greek Wedding infuriates me on general principle.

Oh, and dark haired Rachel McAdams > blonde

I forgot to include Moulin Rouge from that list as a movie I like and "Red Eye" Rachel McAdams is definitely hotter than blonde Rachel McAdams.

[Trippy]

This list proves that when it somes to movies women like shit.

[weakside]

I have seen most of these films and own "Love Actually". I think it's a pretty good movie.

[Floyd1977]

I can't believe Top Gun isn't on that list.

"Titanic" is ok. Well the love story stuff is lame and DiCaprio's character is douchey but once the ship hits the iceberg, some horrific shit starts happening.

"Ghost" was obvously very popular, but there are a few problems with that film. Mainly that Swayze's charater was a moron. If he just let the bad guy get that book and finish his scheme, everyone would have been fine, but he just puts everyone in more danger by fucking with it. Not to mention that he pretty much engineers the bad guy's certain murder, but yet gets to go to heaven at the end. I've never heard anyone bring that up.

[blakesnake00]

OMG am I total fag ? I like 4 of those movies(Titanic,Fat Greek,Moulin Rouge-excellent music,and Pretty Woman)The first time I saw Pretty Woman I was in my first stint in rehab.There were like no VCR tapes but that to watch,the two teenage wackjobs in there so said I would love it.I remember being so fucked up from a 4 day crack binge,and no sleep that I think I cryed at the end.Oh fuck wait that wasnt rehab that was the weekend I spent in the physc. ward at Pekin Hospital.I had tryed to off myself by eating 85 50mg. Benyadrils.I really did it cause I did have like a $2700 coke bill and I knew it was a way to get out of it.The dude felt so bad that when I got out on Monday(cause I promised to go strait to rehab)He called me and fronted me an 8 ball.Holy shit that was random sorry.Wow i was fucked up but loved that movie still watch it when its on TBS.

[LBF]

I like "When Harry Met Sally."

And I agree that Bull Durham is a chick flick that is very watchable.

[Bobobie]

I only watched Ghost out of that list of movies.

[Budyzir]

The only two on the list that I liked are "Titanic" and "Ghost".

One that I would add would be "About Last Night".

[Owenay]

10. Titanic - good film after the collision.
9. Ghost - I have no problem with this one, except that Whoopie's in it.
8. Mean Girls - never saw it... thought it was a comedy.
7. While You Were Sleeping - looks like a piece of SHIT.
6. When Harry Met Sally - piece of SHIT.
5. Fat Greek Wedding - looks like a piece of SHIT.
4. Moulin Rouge! - looks like a piece of SHIT.
3. Pretty Woman - piece of SHIT.
2. Bridget Jones’s Diary - looks like the biggest piece of shit ever.
1. Love Actually - looks like a piece of SHIT. Hugh Grant? That alone tells me all I need to know.

Where's Steel Magnolias? That's my most hated chick flick of all time.

[Flea_Man]

I saw Legally Blonde and thought it was good.

[jagsfans]

1. Love Actually - looks like a piece of SHIT. Hugh Grant? That alone tells me all I need to know.


Alan Rickman plays a real scumbag and Laura Linney has a solid storyline. Liam Neeson is quite good in it also. Bill Nighy was funny also. Hugh Grant is in about 25% of the movie.

[kloraferm]

Laid?

[oandapartycock]

The only two on the list that I liked are "Titanic" and "Ghost".

One that I would add would be "About Last Night".

X2.
Rob Lowe and Demi Moore in her prime. RRRROOWWW.

I only saw about half the movies on that list but Pretty Woman was a pretty good flick. Saw it recently and it still holds up.

Of the ones not on that list, 4 Weddings and a Funeral I liked. It came out right after Groundhog Day and I really had a thing for Andie McDowell at the time.

Two other ones I actually own:
When a Man Loves a Woman. When the hammered Meg Ryan comes crashing out of that shower door, that was priceless.

Message in a Bottle. The wife and I will occasionally still throw that one in. Great performances by Rebecca Romijin, Paul Newman, even Kevin Costner. The editor guy was played by the guy who ended up playing Hagrid in the Harry Potter movies.

There. I said it. Still got 30 minutes to edit this if I change my mind. :rolleyes:

[BravoSierra]

I like "Now and Then" even though it makes me sound like a pedo.

I also liked "Here on Earth" with "Oz" from American Pie and Josh Hartnett.

[jnoble]

for a couple reasons:
Topher Grace (Eric from That '70s Show) was good as usual playing a well meaning but dopey guy trying his damnest to get the girl. I related to his character well and felt sympathy instead of my usual jaded "ehh, who cares about any of these people" attitude while watching most films.

Kate Bosworth played physically and personality wise the exact type of girl that I would fall head over heels for in real life. Plus, they didn't have her sleep with the bad guy of the movie who wasn't actually a 'bad guy' after all in the end. I liked that the writers didn't go the cliched "girl sleeps with hero's rival" route and kept her character pure.

The ending was totally cliched, but I liked enough of what led up to it to not let it bother me.

[AngryPest]

Never seen Ghost or a lot of the other shit.

I always skip the the sinking part of Titanic. The part when the mother tucks the kids in to bed on the sinking ship bothers me. They are going to have a really bad night.

Best part Leo Dies. Click, eject disk. Wife mad, too bad. Movie over.

[nitron]

I always found The Accused funny.
"whaa"
What's that a comedy?:rolleyes:

[TheDrip]

I enjoyed When Harry Met Sally.

Other than that, I'd say Greek Wedding. Didn't so much think the movie was a winner, but the dad kept getting chuckles from me. It wasn't great, but it wasn't dog shit.

Ah, what the hell, and Titanic. The love story sucked, but it had some great special effects for it's time, and was filmed well.

[lockjaaaaww]

the only one i saw on the list is titanic. I do like as good as it gets and american beauty if you consider them chick flicks.

[DR. Jimcy M.E.]

"whaa"
What's that a comedy?:rolleyes:

(Allen Alda) YES YES!

On the topic of **** I watched boys don't cry tonight and have done nothing but download every piece of porn with short haired girls I could find.

Not sure if its a chick flick but I enjoyed it. I love a happy ending.
