Chick Flicks & Beer: Amy Adams

Directed by Anand Tucker
Starring Amy Adams and Matthew Goode with Adam Scott

So, this is the first posting since the summer...and I have been ignoring emails, dropping phones calls, unplugging internet cables, and burning chick flick DVDS. All the complaints about me not updating this site was just too much. So, I'm back...and just in time for...duh duh duh...LEAP YEAR.

What a fabulously cliche movie. It really had all the right elements for a classic chick flick. Type-A city girl meets Type- B Country Boy. She's American, he's Irish (or at least he has a horribly fake Irish Accent). And, in the end...they fall in love?

I'm not sure if they fall in love. I zoned out for reasons I won't go into here. I actually watched this a few weeks ago and forgot the beer I had with the movie. Did I even have a beer with the movie? What is beer? What are movies? What is life? Why do we even exist? Oh, the humanity...

I actually like Amy Adams. I was a huge fan of Enchanted...should I even admit that? I don't know who Matthew Goode is...is he Irish? I'm really too lazy to do my research on this. I think the beer I had was Japanese, or maybe a micro brew. I have had the Sams Adams Octoberfest recently. That is very good. Very, very good. But, I'm sure most of you loyal readers out there have pick up a 6-pack at your local grocery chain.

I use loyal very loosely...and in case you didn't notice...I was being sarcastic earlier in this thread. I didn't get one complaint about being lazy and not updating the site. Maybe nobody really cares about chick flicks. Maybe my writing sucks. No one ever comments or even complains so how am I supposed to know. Should I even continue this pointless study on female driven movies? What do you think?

Here's the trailer below...

FORCE THE BOYFRIEND: 1 out of 10 (1 mean he'll hate it, 10 means he'll love it) - Don't force yourself either.

!!!!COMMENTS HALL OF FAME!!!!

GET OVER THE CATS, ALREADY!

"Yes, I admit, we single ladies have cats. God, is it so wrong for a guy to actually like a f*cking cat?! They are self sufficient, just like they "really want their women" and they aren't dumb...well, I'll admit, like guys want their women. I really enjoyed the middle of this movie but hated the predictable ending and beginning as well. There was some good advice in it but obviously, it backfired on the neurotic, control freak and she resulted in telling the "ugly truth" about herself. Guys expect us to accept them as they are and look past their poor grooming habits "down there" (if you know what I mean boys).... and their inability to look at themselves as not "perfect specimens". However, we women go through some brutal and I mean brutal shit to become the perfect, idealistic, bimbo-esque-with a brain, but not too much so he isn't threatened, selves!

It is hard to just lay it out there for someone and be yourself!!!! I admit. I play the game and I play it well. But it is tiring. It is frustrating. And, it has left me 100% alone. Therefore, I am left wondering, what is better...The girl he wants me to be or the girl I am. Dark Beer drinker, skinny because of Pilates which means yes, boys, I am flexible...look past the mouth that is telling you to f*ck off and realize, it is all in good fun...embrace it, scotch drinker...etc...I could go on and on but until someone is ready to take on a challenge and not take the easy way out...I would rather be single.
