Chick Flicks You Are Ashamed to Like

Good call on on the Can't Hardly Wait. Some others:

Save the Last Dance
Mean Girls
Sixteen Candles
She's All That

 

Excellent addition - this should definitely be included. Another variation is where the guy loses his girlfriend, realizes his loss and makes himself more attractive (since the actor is already handsome, more attractive = more sensitive and better dressed = wussing out) in order to get her back. Sometimes he gets her back (when her character is perfect) and sometimes he finds a better chick (who has probably helped in his transformation to wuss) who BTW the audience was rooting for all along.

Not a chick flick. Chick flicks are about feelings and perfect guys, not about humor and brilliant one-liners. You could possibly argue that this is a parody of a chick flick, but I think it is more of a fairy tale parody.

 

Don't know if this qualifies as a chick flick or not but I think it has all the ingredients. Garden State is a really good movie.

 

Does Chasing Amy count as a chick flick?

 

Mean Girls
How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days

 

i watch Sex in the City. there have been a alot of episodes that hit close to home when it comes to my g/f (now ex) and i. it's kinda funny. every now i then, i'll hear from her, "see? that's you. uh huh, yep."

 

Why do people keep mentioning Mean Girls? That is not a chick flick by any means. It's a teen comedy...

 

dude, Scarface is totally a chic flick. Totally.

What's more chic flickish than a sister throwing herself naked at her cocaine overdosed brother and then shooting him ...only to get shot to death moments later herself. Tony totally went on a rampage after that to avenge his sisters death!

Very touching. Brought tears to my eyes.

 

I'm not embarassed by my choice of movies, because I think everything is simply a matter of different tastes, but some chick flix I enjoy:
A Walk to Remember
Say Anything
The Cutting Edge

 

Ghost.

 

Per Rocketman95:

"Someone Like You (Hugh Jackman's character is my hero)"

Agreed- I like Ashley Judd's character doing the cheer-outstanding.

My favorite girl - chick flick- "As Good as it Gets"

Brokeback Mountain was an excellent movie
The Devil Wears Prada

Common theme: Anne Hathaway

 

Chick flicks I own:

Titanic
Pride and Prejudice
Wimbledon (it's borderline but it does have a romantic storyline)
Love Actually
Garden State (borderline but again it's a romantic dramedy)
Moulin Rouge
Can't Hardly Wait (more of a teen flick but it does have JLH)

Others I like:
Clueless
A Walk to Remember
Jerry Maguire (another borderline one but has "chick" moments)
Ever After
High Fidelity
Notting Hill
Serendipity
About a Boy
Nine Months
Runaway Bride (not the greatest but a guilty pleasure)
Steel Magnolias (yeah I went THERE)
Sleepless in Seattle
You've Got Mail
A League of their Own (qualifies because it's all about women)

That's all I can think of right now.

 

The Sweetest Thing

 

Agree on The Cutting Edge
Love, Actually
In Her Shoes.

And I also like Fried Green Tomatoes...but that might be because I actually know Ms. Masterson a little

Deal is I am a community theater actor (not a great talent but o.k for an amateur)...and really bad acting is painful for me to watch. So if I have a choice between a dialog driven chickflick or an explosion driven man movie with really, really bad acting to sit through. I will go with the chickflick.

 

Saw 'She's the Man' with my wife last week and laughed my arse off.

/runs

 

She's Having A Baby is entertaining.

 

You guys are all ghey... jk

 

I haven't seen "The Notebook" on here yet. That is a GREAT movie.

I like A Walk to Remember, if it counts, as well as Mean Girls.

Thirteen going on 30 was alright. How To Lose a Guy in Ten Days is also pretty good. Sleepless in Seattle count(probably not)? What about Breakfast Club?

 

Hitch is on right now.

I'd never seen it before. It's actually not bad.
