"Girl's night in" with the VCR/DVD player for company: Best chick flicks of all time?

[Dodie]

Just for fun! (Inspired by my recent discovery of the work of Hugh Jackman)

Okay. Imagine that your DH/SO is gone (traveling, working, etc.).

If you could watch any three movies (just you, in your jammies, popcorn in your lap and kleenex by your side) what would they be?

Mine:

"When Harry Met Sally"
"Sleepless in Seattle"
"Kate and Leopold" (a NEW addition as of this weekend)

I reluctantly note that Meg Ryan stars in all of them. Although she's not necessarily my favorite, she certainly has made quite a name for herself in this particular type of role, hasn't she?

What would your three movies be?

 

[adamak]

Here are my choices....

4 Weddings and a Funeral
Ocean's 11
About a Boy
Beauty & the Beast
Any seasons of Sex and the Citiy.

I heard that My Big Fat Greek Wedding is fantastic too.

 

[kejoda]

Now & Then
A League of thier Own
Steel Magnoilias or You got Mail

 

[mrsv98]

hmm...well how about

1. Steel Magnolias ("My colors are Blush and Bashful")

2. Gone with the Wind (I might be a modern woman but Rhett can sweep me up in his arms and carry me up those stairs anytime )

3. Singin' in the Rain -- I love musicals so this could be Brigadoon, An American in Paris, or many others.

Now I want a movie night!

 

[binny]

The American President ( with Michael Douglass and Annette Benning)

Sleepless in Seattle

Youve Got mail

I *do* like Meg Ryan though lol

I would also have to add in ther Kate and Leopold too another great one!

 

[meeshi]

Well, let's see if I can come up with 3.

My personal favorite is "Return To Me" I LOVE that movie!
You've Got Mail
I guess my third would be Kate and Leopold since I have a movie mental block right now.

 

[Lars624]

My girlfriends and I do pajama parties like that whenever one of our DHs goes out of town.
Meeshi-I also love Return to Me....watch the DVD all the time
As far as all time chick flicks...off the top of my head.......Steel Magnolias, When Harry met Sally, Thelma & Louise, Fried Green Tomatoes, Chances Are, Four Weddings & a Funeral, Notting Hill & Jerry MaGuire.


OOPS obviously I missed the part about only three....I wasn't ever very good at following directions anyway

 

[Dodie]

Keep 'em coming! (Even if you CAN'T limit yourself to three, LOL!)

Some of my other favorites are popping up on your lists too!

[cinlee3]

My flicks would be:

2. When Harry Met Sally or any other Meg Ryan movie
3. Any musical or classic

 

[TigerBear]

Some of my favorite romantic comedies:

I am NOT a Meg Ryan fan - she plays the same character in every movie she is in.

 

[Saffron]

1. Same Time Next Year
2. Dr. Zhivago
3. Jaws LOL!!! I love that movie and everyone is sick of it.

 

[bsnyder]

When Harry Met Sally
Gone with the Wind
Terms of Endearment (edited because I originally wrote "Tears of Endearment" LOL!

or

Sense & Sensibility
Steel Magnolias
Casablanca

 

[Deb in IA]

It sounds like Dr. Deb has a little crush.

 

[Robinrs]

Nine to Five

Steel Magnolias (Hit this!! Hit this!!)

The First Wives' Club!

 

[lakoda]

If you like Hugh Jackman you will probablly enjoy "Someone Like You" (if you haven't already seen it). Very cute movie, and he is such a hottie!

 

[DVCajun]

City of Angels
Ghost
Dead Poet's Society
A Knight's Tale (my recent addition )
