The Best Flicks for Guys and Chicks

February 21st, 2008

In honour of Sunday night’s Academy Awards, and my upcoming GIRLS weekend, I thought it only fitting to devote today’s blog to movies. There is nothing more satisfying, other than waterskiing on a calm lake, than watching a good chick flick.

Saturday nights at the cottage are an ideal time to curl up with a big bowl of popcorn (see Hell’za poppin for how-to make popcorn the old fashion way) and an entertaining film. Below, in no particular order, are the best guy flicks followed by the best chick flicks.
