For the Gals: Favorite Chick Flick

[Kdfelicity]

I'd have to say mine would be My Best Friend's Wedding and Dirty Dancing :makeout

[Kori Ellis]

Beautiful Girls

I don't think it's exactly a chick flick. But that's the movie closest to that classification that I love.

[angel_luv]

Best Friend's wedding is a good one.

My favorite love story is Life is Beautiful ( Italian Version). The ending is tragic but how they met is so romantic!

[TOP-CHERRY]

I'll have to think about that one...
But one of my favorite chick flick scenes was the one in The Wedding Singer where Sandler is singing that really sweet song to Barrymore in the airplane. :makeout

[Sonia_TX]

I love My Bestfriends Wedding. Reminds me of my own personal life. Well...I didn't try to break up the wedding but when my bestfriend told me he was getting married I cried and told him how I felt. He asked me why I hadn't told him before...I said it wouldn't have mattered since we were friends since we were 11 and we never dated. He said "well, no matter what we'll still be bestfriends". I haven't seen him since. :(

Gosh I ramble too much.

The Notebook is a great one too... Sleepless In Seattle... How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days...is that chick flick?

[TOP-CHERRY]

[Johnny Tightlips]

Go suck a lemon.

[Drachen]

Johnny, where did they shoot you?!?

[Johnny Tightlips]

Nobody shot me.

[The sone]

Go suck a lemon.
:rollin :rollin :rollin

[Drachen]

damn, you messed it up, I was setting you up. In one of the episodes there is a shootout and he gets shot. His friends ask him where he got shot and he responds with "I aint tellin you nuthin."

P.S. To "the sone" :lol good eye, that would make a good pornstar name.

[The sone]

hmmm only prob is he would have to spell johnny with an ie or he would have to be a gay porn star...hmmm where is gay abc when you need him?

[Johnny Tightlips]

Who says I got a mother?

[Mr. Dictionary]

entry = Johnny Tightlips
noun.

definition:
A member of the Mafia and associate of Fat Tony. He says very little, which spares him from accusations of being a "squealer," but his reticence tends to be unhelpful to himself or others.

examples:
Fat Tony: Did you have a nice flight Johnny Tightlips?
Johnny: I ain't sayin' nothin'
Fat Tony: I understand. How is your mother?
Johnny: Oh, hey, who says I have a mother?

Fat Tony: Johnny Tightlips, do you see the shooter?
Johnny: I see a lot of things.
Fat Tony: You know, you could be a little more helpful.

Louie: Johnny Tightlips, where'd they hit ya?
Johnny: I ain't sayin nothin.
Louie: But, what do I tell the doctor?
Johnny: Tell him to suck a lemon.

note:
Johnny Tightlips is a reference to Frank "Tight Lips" Gusenberg who was shot down at the St. Valentine's Day Massacre and replied "Nobody shot me" while dying.

hmmm only prob is he would have to spell johnny with an ie or he would have to be a gay porn star...hmmm where is gay abc when you need him?


I thought of the same thing but couldnt think of a way to reconcile the male first name without changing it completely. So I just ignored it and hoped no one would notice. Changing the spelling could work too. Check out the big brain on the sone.

[The sone]

hey its a huge brain...get it right...

[The sone]

crap that was a pulp fiction refrence and i missed it...

[Sonia_TX]

Not to change the subject of your little man talk...but my friend Jamie calls me Sone or Sones...haha.

Ok... go back to the man stuff.

[Drachen]

now your just arguing semantics. Just because we issued you a man card doesnt mean that you have to argue the difference between big and huge (or "a good size") as heatedly as we do. :lol

[Drachen]

Oh BTW, I am glad you finally got the reference too.

[Sonia_TX]

Drachen, so you're the one that is loose with issuing the man card. Take his away!

[The sone]

now your just arguing semantics. Just because we issued you a man card doesnt mean that you have to argue the difference between big and huge (or "a good size") as heatedly as we do. :lol


quit makin me pee dammit...arg... :oops :depressed

[Drachen]

my man card is attached, dont try to go lorena bobbit on me.

[Sonia_TX]

Not YOUR man card. lol

[Drachen]

Oh thank god, I was getting scared that I had started running with a bad crowd in here. That always seems to happen. They always seem so wholesome when they talk about peeing a little, then BAM! They show their true colors.

[The sone]

my man card is attached, dont try to go lorena bobbit on me.


hey if youre gonna call that a card then i have a rolodex...... :elephant

[The sone]

^^its this big...said the elephant.

[Drachen]

hey if youre gonna call that a card then i have a file cabinet... :elephant


I was waiting to see how long it would take for exactly that reply to be, well uhh, replied. Only 3 posts. :lol

[The sone]

had to edit it...i came up with somethink more clever..

[Drachen]

^^its this big...said the elephant.


Just as long as you dont start talking about throwing a hot dog down a hallway or parking a bicycle in an airplane hanger. :spin

Thats a little better, when I say card and you say filing cabinet, the difference between the two makes me insecure. :oops

[TOP-CHERRY]

The character he played fit him perfectly.

[ObiwanGinobili]

Damn I still haven't seen When Harry Met Sally. What is Life is Beautiful about anyways?


big time tear -jerker.
it;s in italian with english subtitles.
you MUST rent it!!!

from netflix:
In this poignant tragicomedy, a clever Jewish-Italian waiter named Guido (Roberto Benigni, who won an Oscar for his role) is sent to a Nazi concentration camp during World War II, along with his wife (Nicoletta Braschi) and their young son (Giorgio Cantarini). Refusing to give up hope, Guido tries to protect his son's innocence by pretending that their imprisonment is an elaborate game, with the grand prize being a tank. Benigni also directed.
Rated 5 stars

[ObiwanGinobili]

oh, and here is roger eberts review for Life Is Beautifull:


Some people become clowns; others have clownhood thrust upon them. It is impossible to regard Roberto Benigni without imagining him as a boy in school, already a cutup, using humor to deflect criticism and confuse his enemies. He looks goofy and knows how he looks. I saw him once in a line at airport customs, subtly turning a roomful of tired and impatient travelers into an audience for a subtle pantomime in which he was the weariest and most put-upon. We had to smile.

``Life Is Beautiful'' is the role he was born to play. The film falls into two parts. One is pure comedy. The other smiles through tears. Benigni, who also directed and co-wrote the movie, stars as Guido, a hotel waiter in Italy in the 1930s. Watching his adventures, we are reminded of Chaplin.

He arrives in town in a runaway car with failed brakes and is mistaken for a visiting dignitary. He falls in love instantly with the beautiful Dora (Nicoletta Braschi, Benigni's real-life wife). He becomes the undeclared rival of her fiance, the Fascist town clerk. He makes friends with the German doctor (Horst Buchholz) who is a regular guest at the hotel and shares his love of riddles. And by the fantastic manipulation of carefully planned coincidences, he makes it appear that he is fated to replace the dour Fascist in Dora's life.

All of this early material, the first long act of the movie, is comedy--much of it silent comedy involving the fate of a much-traveled hat. Only well into the movie do we even learn the crucial information that Guido is Jewish. Dora, a gentile, quickly comes to love him, and in one scene even conspires to meet him on the floor under a banquet table; they kiss, and she whispers, ``Take me away!'' In the town, Guido survives by quick improvisation. Mistaken for a school inspector, he invents a quick lecture on Italian racial superiority, demonstrating the excellence of his big ears and superb navel.

Several years pass, offscreen. Guido and Dora are married and dote on their 5-year-old son Joshua (Giorgio Cantarini). In 1945, near the end of the war, the Jews in the town are rounded up by the Fascists and shipped by rail to a death camp. Guido and Joshua are loaded into a train, and Guido instinctively tries to turn it into a game to comfort his son. He makes a big show of being terrified that somehow they will miss the train and be left behind. Dora, not Jewish, would be spared by the Fascists, but insists on coming along to be with her husband and child.

In the camp, Guido constructs an elaborate fiction to comfort and protect his son. It is all an elaborate game, he explains. The first one to get 1,000 points will win a tank--not a toy tank but a real one, which Joshua can drive all over town. Guido acts as the translator for a German who is barking orders at the inmates, freely translating them into Italian designed to quiet his son's fears. And he literally hides the child from the camp guards, with rules of the game that have the boy crouching on a high sleeping platform and remaining absolutely still.

At this year's Toronto Film Festival, Benigni told me that the movie has stirred up venomous opposition from the right wing in Italy. At Cannes, it offended some left-wing critics with its use of humor in connection with the Holocaust. What may be most offensive to both wings is its sidestepping of politics in favor of simple human ingenuity. The film finds the right notes to negotiate its delicate subject matter. And Benigni isn't really making comedy out of the Holocaust, anyway. He is showing how Guido uses the only gift at his command to protect his son. If he had a gun, he would shoot at the Fascists. If he had an army, he would destroy them. He is a clown, and comedy is his weapon.

The movie actually softens the Holocaust slightly, to make the humor possible at all. In the real death camps there would be no role for Guido. But ``Life Is Beautiful'' is not about Nazis and Fascists, but about the human spirit. It is about rescuing whatever is good and hopeful from the wreckage of dreams. About hope for the future. About the necessary human conviction, or delusion, that things will be better for our children than they are right now.

[1Parker1]

I wouldn't consider that a chick flick! Chick Flicks are girly movies where you don't have to think about the storyline, they always have happy endings, the subplot is average, and you walk out of the theater and never think about the movie again. :lol

[ObiwanGinobili]

well then Rory O'shea Was Here definatly isn't chick flick either.

in my definition a chick flick is any movie that a guy wouldn't rent and watch on his own. :lol

the movies in your definition of chick flicks are the kinda movies i find very annoying and a big waste o'time. :lol

[1Parker1]

the movies in your definition of chick flicks are the kinda movies i find very annoying and a big waste o'time. :lol

:lol I like them because you don't have to think about it, you feel no emotions at all while watching it, you usually smile here or there, and you walk out of the theater feeling a little relaxed.

[Kdfelicity]

VERY hot!

The character he played fit him perfectly.


CHERRY! You haven't seen HOT till you see Ryan Gosling in The Notebook! Ok, I'll get of it already. I have to agree with Obiwan on the definition of a chick flick. I for one think about girly movies after I've seen it (I'd say that's pretty evident)
