hmmmm from my obsrvations I think people(men or women) who cheat do it for a variety of different reasons. e.g. sometimes they just have deceitful natures (i.e. they get off on the idea of cheating) which means they'll always do it sometimes they may be in a relationship with someone they truly do care for and then meet the person they believe they are meant to be with and they don't want to hurt anyone so they cheat...stupid though as the cheated upon person always finds out and is even more hurt...better to do it openly. I'm pretty sure I would not tolerate being cheated on regardless of the reason.

I don't know if I can even watch it ever again. The movie really made me miss my LH the last time I watched it.
Strongly agree. I could barely sit through that one for our captain. It wasn't funny. The characters didn't seem realistic. The plot never did anything all that interesting. It just sort of plodded along. Don't really ever want to see that movie again.

I love the "Sure Thing" It's kind of a guy and girl chick flick

In no particular order:
Phenomenon - can't go wrong with Kyra Sedgwick
Michael, Ghost & Dirty Dancin' - Travolta and Swayze make these choices cool for a guy to watch even though chicks are loving it. Swayze (RIP) can dance and kick ass; while Travolta is just plain smoooooth!
Groundhog Day - Andie McDowell again; reason enough to watch.
Bend it Like Beckham - I can't quite put my finger on it. Well, try this: anything sports related gets an automatic pass from us guys. I really like this film.
High Fidelity - Jack Black is definitely the best thing in this film.
The Ugly Truth - Yes, that's right with Gerard Butler who is HI-larious in this chick flick. Saw it on Amazon a couple months back (it was a special) and was pleasantly surprised. It derails and the wheels fall off in the third act, but otherwise not terrible (Butler is a hoot). Good chemistry with Hiegl, who is easy on the eyes.
As for Sleepless in Seattle - it gets a pass (for us guys to watch) because they mention the Dirty Dozen in the middle of the flick. Good call Zeek. ;-)
WHMS - To me Crystal makes this movie work. Ryan, of course, is cute.
Jerry MacGuire - Sports rule again ("Here guys have some football".) and who could forget Gooding's Oscar winning perf.
Underworld - Vampire-sci-fi-love story, but the guys get guns, action and Kate Beckinsale in a leather outfit that makes Buffy look like a schoolgirl. "I'll buy that for a dollar!"
Makes my heart go pitty-pat.
*cough* *manly grunt* *spit* *adjust crotch* *scratch* *scratch* ok I feel better now - hahahahahahaha - LMAO, good one Zeek.

Thought of another one with some potential.
Garden State - I really can't put my finger on why I like the movie so much. The plot doesn't really go anywhere. It just feels real somehow. Plus Natalie Portman is awesome in it. I would be all over her character if I met a girl like that.

Good point! The movie does kind of meanders about. I could watch Portman read the paper and be shit-happy.
I recently re-watched The Professional, her first role, and I'm still amazed that she was THAT good at such a young age. I mean, the scene in the restaurant with Leon celebrating their first 'job' was all kinds of awesome. To have that kind of range at 13 y.o. is remarkable.
There's V for Vendetta, without question a solid film, but I have yet to see 'Closer.'

Here's another one to watch out for in future roles - Chloe Moretz (the little girl in KickAss). She was cast to be in the remake of Let The Right One In. I think she will be the next Portman.
