The Fault in Our Stars

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Very much a chick flick, but good nonetheless because it is so well done. If you need to build some movie-choice points with your SO you could do a lot worse than seeing this one.

Me, I liked it a lot, but I'm a big fan of the author of the book it is based on. Although "based on" seems insufficient, as it's probably the best book-to-movie adaption ever put to film.

If it doesn't make you cry at some point, then you just aren't human. I think that might even include Malcolm.

Why are you going to see chick flicks.

I was hoping there was a woman in the equation, but didn't want to assume. He might just really like chick flicks, in which case I would suggest he go to his doctor to see about low testosterone treatments.

I really like the author of the book.

I thought this sort of thing might come up, but after reading you girls squabbling over here I figured none of you can point any fingers.

No doubt you would hate it tremendously. But if you actually kept watching it anyway, then yeah, I think even you would have a tear or two jerked out of you with this one.

I've seen the previews a few times. They made me turn away in revulsion. The plot summary on wikipedia made it worse.

I wasn't squabbling. Someone swiped at me, I pointed it out, and for some reason got called out for it.

If there are boobs then I might have something else jerked out of me.

Cuz I'm a dude.
