Smash the Patriarchy fantasy for feminazis

I like the movie though don't get me wrong Jack is amazing as are the women in their roles but really..

Women dream up "The Perfect Man" he arrives and fulfills every desire, need and want they have. He teaches them how to be the best them they can be and brings out their beauty. He even teaches them a little magic. Impregnates all of them. They have someone making their lives hell and he avenges them.. How do these strong wahmen show their appreciation? They ignore him..so he reaches out to them and they con their way back in only to kill the guy and steal his house.

Ungrateful cunts

He tricked them into putting that hex, or casting the spell onto Felicia, which resulted in her hubby killing her. Then when this frightens them, they just start to ignore him. So he starts doing horrible things to them, snakes with Alex, aging with Jane, and the horrific pain for Sukie. If he could have just accepted that they wanted nothing more to do with him because of his actions, he would have been fine. He had to stir stuff up. I think you had forgotten all of that, so you’re welcome.

They said themselves they wanted something to happen to Felicia. Wanted nothing more to do with them? They were all pregnant with his kid. You think they have the right to keep him away?

Doesn't change the fact they then killed him and took his house. So once again it shows what you women care about taking everything from a man even when he helps you.

They didn’t want her dead! There’s a big difference. Man, someone must have hurt you..

Well, at the end of the day he WAS Satan, so I didn’t feel particularly bad for him. Also, he didn’t exactly “reach out to them”, he almost kills one of them just because he can’t handle being cock-blocked.

Plus, take out their attack on him and you’re left with absolutely no conflict and a movie where everyone lives happily ever after. I’d watch a romcom if I wanted to see that.

I like the movie the way it is.

I think the movie merely proves (many) women don't know what they really want.

I'm thinking maybe you didn't really pay attention to the movie.
