Sex and the City : The Movie (aka. God Help Us!)
For anyone with a girlfriend or wife... guess what we'll be dragged to this summer.

Some of us won't have to be dragged.

Re: Sex and the City : The Movie (aka. God Help Us!)
My wife loves the show and watches it constantly. However, she isn't so jazzed about the prospect of a movie. The series wrapped up its storylines pretty satisfactorily and she doesn't feel there's a whole lot of avenues to explore. I have to agree.
"If you write a story about a soldier going AWOL and kidnapping a pregnant woman and finally shooting her in the head, it's called searingly realistic, even though it's never happened in the history of mankind. Whereas if you write about two people falling in love, which happens about a million times a day all over the world, for some reason or another, you're accused of writing something unrealistic and sentimental."
-Richard Curtis, Screenwriter and Director

I will go next summer, if my woman goes to see I am Legend with me next week! 
Really, the show isnt to bad. Sometimes you even get to see nekkid women. Course who has not seen Kim "Lassie" Cattrall by now!

Re: Sex and the City : The Movie (aka. God Help Us!)
I love the show, but even when there was talk about filming the movie immediately after the show ended (which obviously didn't happen) I wasn't sure where they'd go with it after seeing the series' last episode. Everything wrapped up nicely, and I don't see what the movie could do besides tear down everything that ended well in the series and re-wrap it up in a more unsatsifying way in a two hour film.
The last thing a fan of the show needs is anymore Carrie & Mr. Big melodrama. Of course, I'm not sure any show since The Golden Girls has had as much behind-the-scenes drama between the actors as this one, either. I tend to side with Kim Cattrall though.
I don't see the need to mention how the movie threatens your masculinity in the thread title though.

Ah come on, I'm joking around. My girlfriend talks about the show all the time, I've gotta let my frustration out somewhere

There were some truly hysterical moments in the show. I'll be seeing this with my wife (and a smile)!

I'll second the comment and raise you one. I've seen every episode of the series (with the wife) and wouldn't at all mind seeing this with her.

David,
I'll stand in solidarity with you, brother. In fact, the only reason I clicked on this thread is because I loved the title.
Personally, there are only two things I hate worse than terrorism: Grey's Anatomy and Sex and the City.
