I know you are probably all bored to death now, but whilst we are on the topic of old crap films PLEASE can we slag off the Sex And The City film?

I mean dear god.

I have a visceral hatred of the series anyway, but this film was the depths which should never be plunged.

The basic message: women, know thy place.

is this the new film?? not seen it if so,only saw the last one!

Clary · 04/05/2010 22:08

I really enjoyed it.

Oh dear.

Clary · 04/05/2010 22:09

I think if you hate the series it woul dnot be a good movie choice tho.

I mean I am not a fan of the TV show Star Trek, so would avoid the latest Star Trek film if possible.

SpringHeeledJack · 04/05/2010 22:10

I haven't seen it but I know I'd loathe it

GetOrfMoiLand · 04/05/2010 22:10

Oh no clary youy have broken the thread before it has even started

All right then, poor old Carrie got jilted because Big got all 'spooked' about her wedding planning ways.

However, he managed to woo her back at the last minute, and she was then happy to marry the bloke who jilted her and with the minimum of fuss.

And this was a happy ending because...

big is NO good for her,she should have stuck with Aidan!

GetOrfMoiLand · 04/05/2010 22:13

Ah, but Clary I loved the first series of SATC as it was quite funny and self aware.

Then it went downhill and all self reverential and charicatured.

And Carrie should have been single at the end of the series. To me that was the hwole blardy point of the series. That you can be happy single. Not to have to wait 10 sodding years for some old fart to stop piss arsing around and decide that he is ready for you now.

I overanalyse things.

I thought the CArrie /big story line was aload of tosh but then they have always been the weakest things about SATC in my opinion.

BUT as a piece of bubblegum showcasing fab clothes and shoes it can't be beaten!

Roll on Satc THE SEQUEL, it will be even more outlandish

gtamom · 04/05/2010 22:36

I have all the SITC on dvd, plus the first movie, loved them.

BitOfFun · 04/05/2010 22:38

Ah, now I am not a trekkie, but that movie was surprisingly good...

ifancyashandy · 04/05/2010 22:43

Carrie is the MOST self-obsessed character ever invented. How does she have any friends?! Especially someone as fun as Samantha! Can't abide the navel gazing cow woman.

The entire series is about finding / keeping blardy men. Sheesh.

(But love the show / movie. Go figure! I blame it on a clothes addiction )

LaurieFairyCake · 04/05/2010 22:43

I love this pointless froth. All the ridiculous bags and over priced shoes and what it says about women and shiny things.

I spend my entire days immersed in people's awful lives - not to mention all the political and churchy shite I seem to spend my life doing.

SATC is my thang and I love it I cannot wait for the new film - as soon as the tickets are released I'll be at the cinema on my own watching it.

Clary · 04/05/2010 22:46

Hah! That Star Trek ref was an in-joke; my DH is a big fan and so I have seen a numbe rof Star Trek films.

Preferred SATC tho - sorry for breaking thread

Loved the telly series.
Hated the film. Lame plot and none of the toe-curling sex hilarity of the TV series. Nice frocks tho.

That link from Tech is hilarious

So as a lead on from the trailer and that picture; they are just going to be prancing about in nice clothes and shoes but with the exciting addition of sand?
