I AM A MAN WHO LIKES CHICK FLICKS

 

I am a man who likes CHICK FLICKS.  Now before you tell me to turn in my MAN CARD.

I still love a good shoot em up action adventure, superhero flick.  But I really do like some chick flicks- some- The real mushy make you cry chick flicks not so much..

Can I have my man card back?

Here is an example that happened with my wife a few years ago.   We were taking a getaway weekend and knew the Hotel had DVD players in the room so we decided to each pick a movie to take along to enjoy.  Teresa chose an action adventure (Crimson tide I think, a great movie by the way) but the movie I chose had nothing to do with Batman, Superman or even Pro Wrestling!  I chose you’ve got mail” CHICK FLICK.

I guess I should say romantic comedy more that Chick Flick.  But a funny movie about relationships are pretty cool and Vanity Fair just came out with a list of the best Romantic Comedies

Here’s the list:

  1. “When Harry Met Sally”, 1989

One I can think of that didn’t make the list is 50 1st dates!

I have not seen all of the 25 and some of them I never will.

Just give me romance movies like Batman and Cat woman- Superman and Lois Lane. Wolverine and Jean Grey.  Heck even Peter Parker and Mary Jane.   Now that is romance!

Today on the morning show I break the law with a straw and Girl Scout cookies

Stupid news:  A break up leads to a theft.  Facebook leads to a guy being shot.
