Some people are wondering whether the Sex and the City movie will be a blockbuster since most summer movies appeal to guys, and there really haven’t been any female-focused rated R movies of this scale. But I have reason to believe that the movie is going to be a success. Two weeks ago, I told all of my friends I was going to buy tickets to Sex and the City for opening night. I was very concerned it was going to sell out and didn’t want to miss the hysteria that will certainly take over theaters on Friday. Then I got busy and forgot to actually purchase them, and now, from what I can tell, the freaking movie is sold out in every theater in New York. I have no idea how this is possible, but now my friends hate me (if you have extra tickets, let me know!), however, I don’t think I’m alone in my predicament. “We can’t remember the last time a movie has created so much anticipation among female moviegoers from their 20s through their 40s,” said Harry Medved, a spokesman for Fandango. Harry said they’re getting a lot of group ticket sales, and 67 percent of those surveyed by the site said they were planning to go in a group of women. Only 6 percent said they were going with a man. I think that all the men who are being dragged along should give their tickets to people who actually want to go, and then everyone will be happy. [AP]
