Wait, I've only seen a handful of episodes, but didn't the two gay guys reject each other? Did they totally change that for the movie(s) or am I thinking of something else?

Back down to 8%. They have ruined my birthday weekend!!
Thankfully, it's also Fleet Week. I will drown my sorrows in whiskey and marines.

You could also watch the Fleet Week episode!
I just read two reviews, one in the Washington Post and the other on abc online. Both were brutal and both mentioned a scene where Carrie is fascinated with a woman in a burqua eating french fries.

Thanks, PRS. It's strange that they let such a huge inconsistency slip by.

Maybe it's explained in the movie? I dunno.
But really, after Marcus, Stanford's gonna want Anthony? I mean, I get that Marcus was always way out of his league, but still... Anthony? With that shrill voice and those weird teeth?

I didn't watch Lost, but I have a feeling I'd have been pissed off by the finale if I did. :)

I hate to Liza-bash because I love her and its just too eashy, but one of the reviews I read said watching her perform "Single Ladies" without busting her hip was "as suspenseful as a Hitchcock set piece".
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

All I know is that somewhere in this movie Liza Minnelli has a cameo, and gosh darn it, that's enough incentive for me to go.

I just got back from the midnight showing. I was very optimistic and appropriately buzzed. All I can say is-it's bad. Very very bad. Near unwatchable. No plot, horrendous costumes, insulting culturally. A complete departure from everything I loved about the show and I enjoyed the first film A LOT! This will kill any life left in the franchise. The women are photographed so poorly and in such unflattering ways, it almost seems like it was done on purpose. There were about 6 people in the theatre. Im curious what the weekend take will be.

I too went to a midnight showing, and I had a complete opposite reaction. I loved every campy second. Yes, the plot was ridiculous and made no sense, but I did have fun. All the screens showing it at the theatre were sold out (although I do agree with the "strong opening weekend then huge drop-off" prediction). My friends and I had fun, as did the rest of the people in attendance. We nearly convulsed with laughter during Liza's number and Samantha's last scene in Abu Dahbi. It's nowhere near perfect, but go enjoy it. =)

To answer bwaylvsong's question about the gay guys:
Yes, they hated each other in the TV series. Charlotte set up a blind date between Anthony and Stanford, which went very badly when Anthony acted like the ill-mannered sack of sh*t that he is. The characters were then kind of tossed together for the movie (Stanford's relationship with the improbably hot Marcus having fallen by the wayside, without explanation) and they wound up in a kiss during the New Year's montage.

Seriously, could you imagine going from Marcus to Anthony? It's not even just that Marcus was hot, but that he was so sweet. Anthony is the devil!

Among the ugly things in the first SATC movie was the way Marcus' absence (and the evident end of that relationship) went completely unremarked upon, even as a one-line bit of plot exposition.

The new Sex and the City movie is a shining example of why everyone -- especially screenwriters -- should learn math and chemistry. Math, because the movie's 140-minute runtime could do with a little subtraction -- this isn't Gandhi, here, although Sarah Jessica Parker looks more like him every day. And chemistry, because the movie's two most important elements, "sex" and "the city" -- you know, the ones that are in the title -- are practically nonexistent in this installment, which takes away much of what usually makes this compound so potent. Statistically speaking, if New York City is "the fifth cast member" of the show, then 80% of this film is missing 20% of the cast.
Poor Sarah Jessica. She's been getting the lion's share of barbs and insults. One review said that cinematography highlighted her "leathery skin."
No sex? Different city? Why bother?

I don't understand why her son is always referred to as "James Wilke." I guess, like Sarah Jessica, he goes by two names. It's just weird, especially since I knew a guy named James Wilke once, but Wilke was his surname. I wonder why the daughters don't have double names like mom and bro.
