LAURA: Hey wanna watch "The Happy Movie" with me?
DANNY: That chick flick!?!?! No way.
Term for a movie geared for women. Quite often seen on cable TV like The Hallmark Channel and endorsed by people like Oprah. These movies make women the heros and show life from a woman's perspective. Most men hate these films cuz they are cheezy and dumb. Pussy-whipped men like them...or pretend to.
Wife: Honey, lets watch: She Finally Kills The Bad Guy!
Husband's mind: ( Not another chick flick! )
Husband's reply: ...yes dear.

Chick Flick
A movie that embodies all that is wrong with the world; a movie which displays a gross over-indulgence into, and exploration of, the workings of the female psyche and the accomanying emotional tendencies.
To be defined as a chick flick, the movie must have the three following attributes:
1. A romance that has unrealistic outcomes which are designed to appeal to a female audience in a way which corresponds to the current trends of fictional romance in society.
2. The main focus/plot of the movie must be a romance which contains the attributes stated above.
3. The movie must have content not suitable for children.
Sex and the City, Before Sunset/Sunrise, Legally Blond are NOT examples of chick flicks because they contains enough truth to the romances they portray.
