Movies for women.:love:

Oh, I cant think of any can you poppins ?

I dont mind the odd chickflick, 4 weddings and a funeral is a cracker, notting hill would be dreadful if not for rhys ifans, but love actually was a stormer. :D
and anything with alan rickman or colin firth, well, there you go, seal of quality right there :)











(ever thought you might have said too much?)

not rely a chickflick but tom cruise and dustin hoffman in rainman...brillient!!!!

When Harry met Sally - classic one liners in there and the most romantic last (ish) scene ever

Harry Burns: I love that you get cold when it's 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you're looking at me like I'm nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it's not because I'm lonely, and it's not because it's New Year's Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.

Sally Albright: You see? That is just like you, Harry. You say things like that, and you make it impossible for me to hate you.

Aw! :cry: :D

(ever thought you might have said too much?)Would Pride & Prejudice be one ?

pride and prejudice with colin firth and jennifer ehle, the tv serial was mega, not sure about the film, not convincing......


or so I'm led to believe :D

Jerry Maguire tends to result in bubbling

Would Pride & Prejudice be one ?

Yes I guess that would be, but not my cup of tea, once you've seen one of those type of films, you've seen them all.

Must be the best chickflick ever. Have you noticed my winking avatar,poppins ?

Dirty Dancing!!! :D

I dont really like weepy womens films. Would rather have musicals "Guys & Dolls etc; mind you I suppose that is a chickflick.

woudnt you like to dirty dance with patrick??? jus see him now, ooo sweet dreams tonite then

No, never fancied him. Now George Clooney take me to him baby.

It would have to be Ghost - best use of pottery in a film ever :D . Actually, it could be the only use of pottery in a film, but that's beside the point.

Following close behind would be While You Were Sleeping, When Harry Met Sally, Pretty Woman and Sleepless in Seattle (though Tom Hanks puts me off that a bit, as does the obnoxious kid). Oh, and Jerry Maguire, of course, especially the 'you had me at hello' bit :love: .

liked him oceans 11..but not my cup o tea rely...now i no you probaly think im crazy.. but i still like tom cruise

Bridget Jones Diary is a great chick flick

Jennifer Ehle was the definitive Lizzie. The recent film was just superfluous. How could they have hoped to top the BBC serial, and Colin Firth as Mr Darcy? Impossible!

Yes, I know Jane Austen didn't include in the novel the scene where Darcy indulges in a spot of swimming, but some manipulations of the source material can only be an improvement :D .

Yes, I was extremely disappointed in the film, although the critics liked it. Pride & Prejudice without Colin Firth ? :gag:

Bridget Jones Diary is a great chick flick
:D to both of the books and the first movie, especially the movie. man oh man. i think every woman has felt like she was bridgete jones at least once in her life

The best chick flicks are the ones that send you through a variety of emotions. Where you connect with the characters so much that you laugh with them and cry with them. Ultimately they make you feel good after watching them. All of the films previously mentioned on this thread are classic chick flicks and all deserve to be mentioned.

Notting Hill
Love Actually
Dirty Dancing
Ghost
Pretty Woman
When Harry met Sally

Then there are the chick flicks that don't make you laugh but have you crying like a baby

City of Angels
Sixth Sense
The Green Mile

When picking a favorite it all comes down to personal taste and has alot to do with what mood you're in when asked.

Today if asked my response would be Love Actually!!! :P

Beaches.
I blubbed like a baby.
Wind Beneath My Wings gets me started everytime. It reminds me of my best friend from school.

Dirty Dancing!!! :D

I'm a sucker for Dirty Dancing: "Nobody puts Baby in the corner".

I watched it the other day for the first time in AGES and I'd forgotten how much I loved it!

hmmm, i can't pick one. So here's a few of my fave chick flicks:

Steel Magnolias - can't believe no ones said that yet!
Love Actually
Notting Hill
While You Where Sleeping
Practical Magic
The Lakehouse (are you seeing a theme with the Sandra Bullock films :P )
Ghost
Pretty Woman
Bridget Jones

i laffed my sox off to mickey blue eyes...and the ending sooo gud..they got together ahhhh

Ghost gets my vote, or 4 Weddings.

what about an officer and a gentleman.

Truly Madly Deeply, or is that more of a weepy kinda thing? with Alan Rickman and Juliet Stevenson...
The recent film version of Pride & Prejudice, as Hecate says, totally unnecessary remake and Keira Knightley was a bit too modern and aggressive, thought she was going to karate kick Mr Darcy (interesting idea for a film!) perhaps she got her roles mixed up...
:)

the only alan rickman film I didnt like.... truly madly deeply? more like deeply deeply dreadful!

Gotta be love actually even I can watch that, though one of the main reasons is a certain Ms Knightley

i dont no if this if this is a chickflick or not but lvd Sliding Doors...its the first film ive seen that is set on them lines...brillient..your hooked after the first 10mins

got to be Dirty Dancing my favorite movie:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

the only alan rickman film I didnt like.... truly madly deeply? more like deeply deeply dreadful!

Oh thank God for that! I thought I was the only person in the western world that didn't think "Truly, madly, deeply" was a brilliant film. I found it really dreadful - and it was SUCH a great idea, it SHOULD have been a wonderful film. But it was done all wrong and the idea was completely wasted/destroyed. Almost a crime.

As for best chickflick - I nominate "Thelma and Louise". That's MY kind of chickflick. Absolutely cannot bear or stand anything that has had Richard Curtis anywhere near it. :D

StarSparkle

does no one like Grease... your the one that i want...summer nights...

A few of my faves.....

Thelma amd Louise :thumbsup:

Steel Magnolias :cry:

Grease (first film only!!!) :banana:
Dirty Dancing :clap:

Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe :bigsmile:

My Big Fat Greek Wedding!!! :hihi:

i also like shaun of the dead.

Sorry girls but I really dont get chickflicks at all all my mates seem to like them but I just cant they are so predictable and boring.

If I ever had to watch that stupid Pretty Woman again I think I would kill myself.

Give me The Terminator, Aliens etc any day.

In general, I very much agree with you, I'd much rather watch a suspenseful adventure film than a chickflick, although I did think "Pretty Woman" was actually a good, enjoyable film :)

StarSparkle

Great thread! My recent favourite ones.

An Affair to Remember
Amelie, (of course) :)
Before Sunset/Before Sunrise
Something's Gotta Give - (This is sooo sad actually.)
Notebook
As good as it gets. - ("You make me want to be a better man." I think that is a very romantic line.)

They're check your brain in at the door, escapist fantasy. Pure entertainment.
Give me The Terminator, Aliens etc any day.

Talking of Patrick Swayze, I've just re-watched 'Ghost'. That is such a good film. But the 'ditto' bit, and end made me do this: :cry: .

It must be that time of the month, I'm in the mood to watch Top Gun but I need to go to bed. Perhaps tomorrow.

when harry met sally :)

i once watched a film that i didn't rate at all (can't remember the name but it had sean connery and catherine zeta-jones in it), and i was told that it was because i was a man and it was a woman's film! like cos i'm a man i can't enjoy when harry met sally, or pretty woman, or other chickflicks! honestly!
