My girlfriend took me to see this... :(


I wanted to see The Raid but she dragged me to see this with her girlfriends.

So so lame. I think i need to hand my man card back in.

Sure, i got laid that night but it still sucked. The film i mean. Not the laying.



I'm very depressed. I think i'll go lose some money.

Mmmh, I feel for you man. Usually a few months of "sammich" demanding and restraining her to the kitchen are enough to get the circle's attention to invite you back. Be sure you open a few pickle jars as well as insisting to being the BBQ chef. If you follow these protocols strictly enough, you should get an invitation about a year after your infraction. Your card will be returned after your first meeting back into our circle after you fill in form 1.21. It takes about 2 weeks to get to you by mail. Good luck my good man, I speak for all of us when I say we all have been in this unfortunate circumstance, just stay strong and alpha!

How *beep* stupid. Just because you saw a movie about pregnancy?

reply

Damn, loosen up. OP is obviously kidding. Besides, I'm sure the film was crap and he's still in recovery period.

Just got back from seeing this, owed my girlfriend a chick flick after taking her to see Avengers and Prometheus..

Honestly I'm ok with a chick flick if it's funny, bridesmaids is a perfect example.

This was simply the worst of the worst. Painful to watch in every respect and actually made me angry seeing how busy the theatre was.

reply

That's because Bridesmaids was not a chick flick ;)

And please, men should really get over it. We girlfriends often have to go see stuff like Jackass or The Hangover with you guys.

Suck it up.

Most girls I know loved the Hangover.

And Bridesmaids was clearly a Hangover type movie aimed at the female audience but I still found it really funny.

Dont get me wrong, of course we need to suck it up and get on with it but this was borderline acceptable for me unfortunately. :)

I'm a female but I feel your pain. My husband was watching Avengers while I opted for this since I'm not into superhero movies. About 30 minutes in I was wishing I just went with him to see Avengers. This movie was pretty underwhelming even by my standards and I like chick flicks.

Your girlfriends are all lame. But hey, you're getting laid.

"Oh, Britta's in this?"

One of the most ridiculous things I've ever read. You say this only because you saw a movie about pregnancy?? Please. Grow a set.

reply

Wasn't just a movie about pregnancy did you see it? It's very much about gender roles and the guy always bending etc. Hes allowed to feel weird watching a movie like that. I'm a woman and I felt very much like this was a "all woman want babies and to pull you in" thing. It kind of portrayed woman as wearing blinders and not really communicating or asking what the men wanted.

And about ops funny comment ., have you ever heard of exaggeration?
