Chick Flicks

After watching The Notebook, A Walk to Remember and Love Actually this weekend, all I'm going to be watching for the rest of my life are chick flicks! Forget the action movies, horror movies and the sci-fi's! It's all about chick flicks!!!

If you guys know any more that you might have been suckered in to watch by your girlfriend when she decides to stay the weekend with you, just post here please.

A Message in a Bottle should be right up your alley if you like chick flicks.

I must say this is the most pleasant way I have ever seen of ´coming out´. For how long did you know you were gay before you dared to say it out loud?

It's A Walk To Remember. I watched it at my friend's house one night I was over there. His sister picked it out. I've been subjected to lots of "chick flicks" watching movies over at his house.

Re: Chick Flicks

Personally I regard them as gross capitalization of the ´Bambi´-emotion. I find watching them a waste of time as they sort of keep you high for an hour and twenty minutes after wich I think ´God this was a waste of time´ while my GF sobs and says ´wasn´t that beautiful´.
However she will not watch films like ´The Killing Fields´, ´JFK´ and ´Apocalyse Now´ wich are undoubtedly less amusing than ´let´s dance´ or ´Handkerchief in Dallas´.

Chick flicks. Blech. I spit on them all.

Re: Chick Flicks

Anything with Hugh Grant in is generally classed as a chick-flick and is likely to be watchable too. I find that British chick-flicks are a bit more refined and amusing than the American ones, but that could be completely because I am British.

Re: Chick Flicks

Love Actually is all around us.

Hugh Grant is a legend in chick flicks, ranging back from the classic Pretty Woman and Four Weddings and a Funeral through to his latest stuff. Think my favourite chick flick has to be Notting Hill though. Mainly down to spike

i have a rather big dvd-collection with some real masterpieces, but my gf doesn't want to see any of them because they contain fighting, swearing and blood.
the last movies i saw with her were 'pride and prejudice', some film about the life of a canadian deerhunter and 'keeping mum'. :crymeariver:

Amelie or Before Sunrise are hardly what I'd class as chick flicks. Chick flicks are really just a narrow sub genre of the whole romance genre that has limited appeal outside the female demographic due to its cheesyness and over sentimentality. A good romance film however will have a wider demographic as the romance is a story point which doesnt go ott and doesnt drown out the bigger story with cheesyness and sentiment

Well, I'm pretty much using the saem definition if that helps.

Just as most guys seem to have a remarkable ability to accept the most brain-dead action ever girls seem to swallow the most over-sentimental feeling-crap ever. Both genres are equally shallow, we just seem to accept different trash when we want to turn our brains off. Interestingly, we find the same pattern when it comes to both comics and regular literature (see guys reading action-books and the majority of books published in the fantasy-genre and girls reading 'horrible shallow books')

I thus classify a chick-flick as something close to "an emotional film, so shallow you have to actively turn your brain off in order to not scream at it".

However if we are talking about films that are not just about romance but feature females characters as the main protagonist in the case of Amelie or as the dominant character as in Before Sunrise then consider that whilst of course the issues of love and relationships are not exclusive to women, they are certainly issues which pre-occupy women more in terms of narrative consumption. Furthermore if you consider the more meandering nature of both plots they certainly qualify as superior examples of chick-flicks. The English Patient is a more borderline case as is Howards End. Wings of the Dove is another excellent Chick Flick. Tehse films are for girls but that does not mean that only girls whatch them, hence the thread.

In any case you note that I joked about the lack of decent chick flicks with my Fight Club comment. Of course if you are just going to single out Working Title productions and that ilk then you really have narrowed down the conversation.
I havent said that I havent ever liked a chick flick. A chick flick that realises its a chick flick and does it well can be fun and enjoyable enough. I'm thinking for example Pretty Women, Dirty Dancing, Grease and Four Weddings all which are extreamly shallow and cheesy but are fun and enjoyable at the same time. In fact as far as chick flicks go theres probally fewer of them that I really hate than there is deeper romantic movies as theres alot less to totally screw the movie up with.

I also know for a fact that people i've encouraged see Before Sunset its been the men whom have enjoyed it more than the women. Before Sunset is more of a charachter peice than anything, the movie deals as much about 2 people finding out about each and finding friendship as much as two people finding 'love' . If you replaced the male and female charachetrs with two hetrosexual males or females and removed the romance undertones alot of the movie would still play out extreamly well as its a charachter study as much as anything. The women find it too slow and not soppy enough in general where as the men find it more enjoyable than a chick flick as it doesnt get too sentinmental and cheesy

I liked that film and clueless but I think they're more teen comedies, or "linday lohan films" as they've come to be known, than chick-flicks.

Re: Chick Flicks

Notting Hill i suppose goes under chick flick?

When you mean chick flicks are you also after sad movies that makes girls cry? (atleast a walk to remember and the notebook are such films)

Those two movies are intresting in my eyes for the way they managed to reverse the positions of their sources.

Clueless is basically Jane Austins Emma. Now Emma to me screams out "Chick flick screenplay" when you read it. However Clueless manages to play it for enough laughs and have enough biting social commentary that it probally pulls off the Teen Comedy angle more than Chick Flick

10 things on the other hand is based on Shakespere The Taming of the Shrew. When I read this at school it seemed to have some depth about it however the movie seems to downplay the comedy found in the play and it comes off a little cheesy and probally finds itself being closer to a Chick Flick (or maybe the Teen Drama description that TV likes using to descrip something thats Chick Flickesq but aimed at teens).

Hugh Grant isn't in Pretty Woman

I'd class Clueless/Mean Girls/Lindsay Lohan etc as chick flicks, although I guess they're more teen type films.

Traditionally, "chick flicks" are the obvious ones such as Dirty Dancing or Grease.

Where is the line drawn for something to be a "chick flick" though? Something that women tend to like but men don't? If so, I wouldn't class Amelie or Before Sunrise as chick flicks. But then what about something such as Brokeback Mountain, Moulin Rouge, When a Man loves a Woman or Chicago?

I was just going off the fact that both films have teenagers as their main characters...

Re: Chick Flicks

Worst Chick Flick in the world ever = Coyote Ugly

And as for Moulin Rouge, not neccesarily a chick flick, id put it on the same line as things like Chicago as a musical more than anything else. Oh and did i forget to mention that i love it! Come what may....

Re: Chick Flicks

Moulin Rouge was good for watching with the sound off, and skipping through parts without Nicole Kidman in them.

Oh and demigod, you're officially pussy whipped.

This is the silliest pull any man ever performed on me. But if I´m in the neighbourhood I´ll give you a ring and if you are pretty I may pound your tight ass.

(I REALLY, REALLY DON´T like chick flicks, mostly for their shallowness)
