Nostalgia Critic: The truth of the matter is, there is kind of an art to the chick flick. No, I'm not talking about the ones that are on the spectrum like "Is 'Hunger Games' a chick flick?", "Is 'Bridesmaids' a chick flick?" I'm talking about the ones that are ovaries-to-the-wall, estrogen-inducing, couldn't-be-mistaken-for-anything-else chick flicks. The same way an action film like "Harry Potter" is gender-neutral, but "Pacific Rim" is obviously a dick flick, which is like a chick flick, only the exact opposite. And that's also not to say men can't like chick flicks or women can't like dick flicks. But let's not kid ourselves, it's not boys who made the "Twilight" films a hit and it's not girls who made the "Transformers" films a hit. Hollywood is always going to market to repetitive demographics. When they find a pattern that keeps repeating, they're going to exploit the f*** out of it. But here's the thing: there's a lot of chick flicks out there that are really good. I don't care if it mostly stars women, "A League of Their Own" is f***ing hilarious. I don't care if there's a lot of romance and kissing, "Princess Bride" still kicks f***ing ass. As the years go on, we see more and more effort being put into what was originally thought to only be a niche market.[shows off a poster for "Titanic"]Nostalgia Critic: Hell, the highest grossing film of all time for a while was a chick flick.[shows off a poster for "Frozen"]Nostalgia Critic: And you could argue the highest grossing animated film right now is a chick flick. It's clear a lot more effort is being put into them, and more and more audiences are opening up. But here's what really pisses me off: when people try to use it as an excuse; when they watch something that they know is terrible for them and is absolute shit, but they just shrug off, "It's okay, it's a chick flick." What the f*** does that matter?[shows off a poster for "The Hot Chick"]Nostalgia Critic: Calling a film a gross-out movie doesn't make Rob Schneider's work any better.[shows off a poster for the movie version of "Super Mario Bros."]Nostalgia Critic: Calling a film a video game movie doesn't make "Super Mario Bros." any better. So why does laziness and insulting writing get a pass here? Well, I don't think it should! Case in point: "Mamma Mia"!
