Sex and the City

John Kass at The Chicago Tribune offers a free Get Out of Watching the “Sex and the City” Movie Card. If that’s what it takes, then by all means get one. I have not seen the movie, but I tried watching the TV show once.

Millions of men are sick about this movie based on a TV show about four terrifying, rich, aging, elitist women who whine about sex and men and purchase $700 pairs of shoes to feel better about themselves. What guy wouldn’t love such a movie?

Phil from Newcastle upon Tyne apparently speaks for the millions of men:

“I don’t think SATC is just for girls. I am a reasonably well-adjusted bloke and I am looking forward to seeing the film with my girlfriend. I am then looking forward to poking my eyes out with red-hot pokers, burning my skin off, and rolling around in salt for a while.”

And then there’s this headline: Stars Reveal “Sex and the City” Movie Might Be Kind of a Downer.

Steve cheats on Miranda, Samantha cheats on Smith Jared, and Big leaves Carrie at the altar. . . . Cynthia Nixon says Steve’s cheating is about “even more than unfaithfulness.”

Isn’t it always?
