Good tear jerker....I enjoy getting emotionally involved in a movie, in the real world we don't get enough chances to feel human.

Yes.

I have sat through chick flicks before. If its new movie I haven't seen I'll sit through it. Its entertainment. 2nd and 3rd viewings I just zone it out. My mind is thinking something else and not really paying attention to the move.

But no I haven't seen this movie. I remember seeing commercials for it though.

I've had a couple women try. The answer was a firm NO.

If you go for the notebook then some other crappy movie will be next and I'm not opening those floodgates.

Sure, why not...Relationships are about compromises.

Of course, the next movie night would be my choice and we'd be watching either Ghost Dog: The Way of the Samurai or MVP: Most Valuable Primate

I watched through half of it after hearing all this hype about it(from girls that is).
I don't think it could get any more cliche than it already is. How can girls actually like this crap?

Rachel McAdams is hot. Plus you'll score big points with the GF. I watched it with her last Valentine's Day in a hotel suite with a hot tub. I don't think I could score any better points than that.

It actually made me shed some tears too.

If your BF won't watch the movie with you, this is a red flag concerning the relationship.

yea, that and the fact if he had to choose from me and his cat, he'd choose the cat.. :eek:

Sadly I've already watched it.

Thankfully there was another girl with us so I just read a book while they bawled.

It was really pathetic, both of them burning through Kleenex & me trying not to laugh.

Sure. I didn't care if my ex wanted to watch a movie like that, I got to cuddle with her on the couch during it, what's not to like about that?

What's so bad about it? I watched it twice. Once with my sister and once with my friends. Some of my friends were going on about how sad it was going to be but I didn't find it sad at all.

Watch it with you? Lady, I have this movie in HD. Once you go HD, you'll NEVER go back.

He said he'll watch it in HD.. can you send it to me?

Umm...the movie itself is 10GB+ (more like 9.6GB). It's basically one TS file. Unless you send me a removable hard drive with enough space I don't see how I'm going to send it to you. There is no media in the market right now that can offer that kind of storage on one disc. Also, my computer is hooked up to my 37 inch so yeah I can watch it at the full resolution of 1920 x 1080.
