Any Quality Chick Flix? - Blu-ray Forum

WimeTime · 01-25-2008, 03:43 PM

My gf is desperately trying to get me to purchase some chick flix...My collection is approximately 1% chickflick now. Can anyone recommend some quality movies that are good for the lady's? PQ? Story? Ending? Anything to help me appease my better half?

Goodfellas? It's story is based on trust, honor, friendship, betrayel... ok now to answer your question.

I get made fun of by my friends for A Knights Tale, so I think it would fall in this category. I think its a good movie, chick flick or not..

Music & Lyrics
Across the Universe
Dirty Dancing
Becoming Jane
The Lake House
Hitch
Memoirs of a Geisha
Seven Years in Tibet (all chicks dig Brad)

I don't know, man. My wife likes stuff like this. I don't bother to buy these titles unless she likes these films. My BD collection is a reflection of me. Mostly action, mayhem, drama, suspense and comedy.

You mean Like "50 first dates"? My wife loves "ConAir" and the "Harry Potter" movies and the new "Bladerunner" blew her away.

JJ · 01-25-2008, 03:56 PM

Hitch? I dunno.

I've only bought transformers on dvd since I bought my first bd over a year ago.
