No not at all. I guess it was more of mutual respect thing than any thing. Kind of like if you just went out to the titty bar without asking first...wouldn't be very nice.
Dude, that's definitely asking for permission. The only difference is that instead of responding with a yes or no, y'all respond with other remarks or maybe gestures....
if it bothers you that your significant other is going to see magic mike...you have some serious insecurity issues.
My gf asked me the other day if she could go poo I said hell no I wanna do anal right now! Seriously though she saw the movie last night and said there was not nearly enough dancing and that the ass-doubles were less than satisfying.
Almost any Hollywood movie with an "R" rating has gratuitous female nudity and guys are getting bent out of shape about their significant others going to the one Hollywood movie this decade that seems to have a strong suggestion of eye candy for women. The double standard is kind of amusing.
It certainly is . . . you could say it's just a movie or book, folks and all that jazz, but people seem to think it's somehow a measure of reality. If you read Mein Kampf and become a skin head in two days, it's some other underlying problems going on in your life. But, I guess in some twisted reality, movies are real and they connect to the actual people watching them. Sometimes, I often find it weird when people blame the problems of our society on movies, tv shows, literature, and mediocre mainstream music, especially when it comes to violence and sex. Yet, you go visit other societies across the world, crime isn't nearly as high, teenagers are not getting pregnant on a whim, and people may not quite be as blood thirsty and sexually frustrated. But, they watch the same kind of movies Americans do. The double standard is very funny, because the same guys making a big deal about this movie or uncomfortable with their wives watching are probably the same guys whose hard drives are probably filled with pornographic pictures of barely legal big breasted teenagers, bouncy Brazilian butts, and Japanese schoolgirls who might somewhat underage. In all honesty, it's only images. I'm sure some of the wives have looked passed it (or some would flip out if they did or might not care one way or another), while I guess some men figure their wives and girlfriend libido only activates towards them and not other men (or it sort of goes away after a relationship or marriage) and sometimes other women. In all honesty though, I read the background story of Birth of a Nation and Triumph of Will in, and I realize how much celluloid and a story can have so much effect on people's lives. Even with people who are obsessed with a certain TV show, character, celebrity, or etc...may in fact be living vicariously through entertainment to fulfill their unfulfilled lives. There's nothing wrong with escapism, but when you become beyond intrigued or disturbed by it ... there's something wrong with that (example: The amount of upset Cleveland Cavalier fans in Ohio who held all sorts of hatred towards LeBron James over one of the most relevant, yet irrelevant activities in the world - basketball game/season). To the point, where a little girl made a lemonade stand for a billionaire NBA owner. That's when I question whether I live in reality or some netherworld.
Exactly, the equivalent would be ... I'm guessing Striptease or Player's Club, though not as quite as poorly written, cheesy, melodramatic, and unbelievably ridiculous as that film was. Magic Mike isn't even equivalent to a semi-soft core late night porno movie.
When Matt McConaughey gets chainsawed to death on the stage by all of those chicks it is probably the greatest moment in cinema since the Alien popped out of that dude's chest.
Any guy who cares about his girl going to watch this has some issues. My girl went on a girls night out, you know what me and my buddies all did...had a poker night.
The Saw-like twist at the end could go down as probably the greatest ending in Hollywood movies. That was incredible.
It's not a double standard as most R movies have gratuitous violence instead of sex (international gross nowadays, gotta open big in Karachi). Women just talk craploads more about stuff they like and neurotically self-deprecate, so there's just that much more buzz. It's possible they get more of what they want from television anyways.
