Movie Magic Mike

Ok, so I am of a certain age and I am amazed how many of my female friends are on there way to see Magic Mike, the movie about male strippers.

I mean, there are so many great movies out right now, and this is not even on my list of top 25 I want to see.

I also was a little surprised that one of these women there today, will not allow her husband to go out with the guys for drinks alone. What is that all about?

Anyway, my gay friends are going and want some of us to join them later this week. they said they would pay, but I am just not into it... Sure back in the day we used to go see the guys strip live for birthdays or bachelorette parties, but I guess I am getting old.

You all excited to see this movie?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

Just go this message from my friend that went to the movie. "Went to see Magic Mike with the girls today. No plot, poor acting, bad script...so what, who cares???"

They are nuts.. went to one of the Brew Theaters...

Yes I am!! It looks like a really fun night out with my girlfriends. Like when we went to see Mama Mia or Sex in the City.

The movie is actually supposed to be quite good just as a movie, and the fun of the subject matter, great soundtrack and delicious eye candy just add to it.

I dont care to see it. I also don't see the big thrill of 50 shades of gray. Just not my cup of tea I guess. All I know is the movie is about strippers. I saw Joe Somebody on Wendy Williams and I do have to say he is HOT! I can appreciate a male body, and do often, but I don't have any desire to see this movie. However, we are going to take the kids to see Brave tomorrow and I'm looking forward to that! =)

I'm looking forward to seeing it with my girl friends. I don't see it as the same as going to see a stripper, as there is a plotline involved....it's not just gyrating on screen. We won't be seeing it this weekend, as none of us want to have to fight the crowds to do that.

I'm completely looking forward to it. I don't like to go to the male strip club, but this movie is going to be a lot of fun. Let your hair down. Have a good laugh. Go home and take it out on your man! Don't you think going to the movie with your firends sounds like a hoot? And with gay guys, that would truly be hilarious.

I found it awesome that they finally made a movie with male strippers so the men can feel funny when the commercials are constantly advertised. We have to sit through Victoria Secret commercials with them gwaking and previews for The Clients List with the girl wearing barely anything(I hate that because I watch alot of Lifetime and my son is around so I have to quick change the channel just like with the VS commercials. I won't go see the movie but I think it looks funny.

Like Sara, I could really care less.

My ideal 'Magic Mike' would be a babysitter who would take Kiddo out for a fun day... and leave me alone with my husband!

I cringe when I hear that song in the previews so I will not be running out to see it.

Heck yeah I'm excited to see it. Channing Tatum, half-naked. What woman wouldn't want to see that? ;) It's just a little eye candy. My husband actually wants to see it, too, but he's too embarrassed to go to the theater. What a fun girls' night!

I wouldn't mind for a girls' night because it just looks like fun. I wanna see my honey, Matthew McConnaughey. I've never enjoyed the whole stripper scene, but the high energy of the movie looks liek big fun. I wouldn't go alone.
