I didn’t get a chance to see Sex and The City: The Movie this weekend and I’m actually kind of bummed.
I know, I know. I’m turning in my membership card to the He-Man Women Hatin’ Club later this afternoon.
It was just one of those things we couldn’t work out this weekend. Cami was a little under the weather and we were just running in too many directions at once.
TO MY CREDIT… I asked Cami at least three time over the weekend if she still wanted to see the movie. I offered suggestions to what we could do with Henry. Take him to her Mom’s house, put him to bed and have her sister babysit, leave Truman to watch over him…
Fact of the matter was, she just wasn’t feeling well and went to bed about 8:00 PM on both Saturday and Sunday. Drag.
People are talking about the box office SaTC pulled down over the weekend. Almost $56 million, making it the largest opening for a R-rated comedy ever. I would think this would ensure a sequel. Especially considering the television show went off the air over four years ago. It’s really quite impressive.
My sister-in-law tried to see the movie on Friday and told us that the first three showings were sold out. When they finally got tickets, she talked about all of the women that went to the theater “in costume” – dressed to the nines in their fanciest clothes and shoes. Women who had their hair done up like it was a black-tie ball for the movie.
I turned to Cami and said “See! Girls will geek out for the right stuff if prompted!”
My sister-in-law also told us that she saw only one or two guys in a sold out theater and that was the inspiration for this comic.
At any rate, with Cami all riled up with her sister’s positive feedback, I think we’re in position to see Sex and The City sometime tomorrow evening. I’ll be sure to let you know what I think on Wednesday.
If you have opinions about Sex and The City: The Movie, be sure to tune in to The Triple Feature podcast tonight at 9:00 PM CST at TalkShoe.com. I know Joe saw the movie, although Gordon flat-out refused. No worries. Gordon said he would check out The Strangers instead.
As for me? Well, I watched an advanced copy of the new Futurama straight-to-DVD movie – The Beast With A Billion Backs. So if you’re looking for some head’s up on that, tune in for the scoop! I might try to post a full review here on the site tomorrow. So be on the lookout for that.
Sorry for the delay with the blog post this morning. There was something I accidentally uploaded to the comic images folder on the server that made the archive system go ker-flooey! Man, I can’t wait to make the switch to WordPress…
