...if he has a girlfriend?

I would like to think that this weekend guys will stick to their guns and say "we're going to see this dang it!" But I see the Julia Roberts movie, while made for a totally different demographic, getting a better showing because guys who have gfs will be forced to make a choice and cave. It will be the whole "I want to see whatever you want," deal, but the guy won't pick Expendables because he fears/knows he will get a slow guilt from the girl.

Or maybe I'm completely wrong and Expendables won't do well because most of today's young men in the dating scene don't remember the Expendables cast nor their significance in action cinema.

This topic sounds familiar. Most guys in relationships are pussies so they will opt for whatever the woman wants to see.

I may be a pussy, but there's no fucking way I'm seeing Eat Pray Love.

EdTheRipper

If my wife and I were going to the theater this weekend, we'd see The Expendables and she'd be perfectly fine with it. If she has any interest in Eat Pray Love at all, she knows I'd see it with her when it hits video.

Matthew Chmiel

My girlfriend wants to see Eat Pray Love.

I told her the only way I'd take her to see it is if we see The Expendables and Scott Pilgrim first.

She agreed.

Here's hoping Eat Pray Love sinks faster than the Titanic and I don't have to go see it.

if i had a wife and she didn't wanna see The Expendables i would divorce her

Paul1957

My girlfriend has an Expendables link on her facebook wall and I don't think she's even heard of Eat Pray Love.

...being the mad man of The Expendables Thread...I just have this. And i'll be damned if I see that film over Sly's new film or Wright's new film..which I'll also see..but after my final exam is over..not the midnight showing like with what I'm doing w/ The Expendables.

I wouldn't date a girl who didn't want to see the Expendables. Several of my female friends have been raving about it, and I haven't heard anyone talk about Eat.

iggystar

I'm woman who will only see Eat, Pray, Love when it comes airs on network television and there isn't a Snuggie infomercial that conflicts with it.

DRG

Don't you have guy friends you can see movies like this with while your gf sees Eat Pray Love or does whatever with her girl pals?

FantasticVSDoom

Well my wife really wants to see Scott Pilgrim, doesn't really care about the Expendables, and thinks Eat, Pray, Love looks like shit... We will be seeing Pilgrim and Expendables this weekend.

Hokeyboy

My wife would see THE EXPENDABLES about four dozen times before she even thought of watching "Eat Pray Love" or even making me watch it with her. I think she might have hated "Marley & Me" more than I did, and I fucking *loathed* that piece of shit movie.

If you have to suffer through shit for the sake of your relationship, your relationship is shittier than than the shit you're suffering through.

SuckaMC

Fiance is down for Expendables and has no interest in Eat Pray Love. I remember how I glowed with pride when she first saw the trailer: every time another action hero popped up on screen she was like: whaaaaa??!!

Meglos

This is the only acceptable answer.

iggystar

You chose your mate wisely!

Even if there was a snowball's chance that I'd want to see Eat..Pray..Love I wouldn't force my husband to see it with me. That's pretty cruel.

zombeaner

My wife hates going to the movies, so I'll see Expendables alone and she might see EPL when it hits home video.

Gunde

How about splitting up for the night and see the movie you most like to see. That's not so fucking hard.

Tarantino

Most chicks like chick flicks, most guys like action movies. If you're in a good relationship, you'll probably figure out how to see both.

No. I'll see the films want to see. If they correalate w/ her great. If not...oh well. I only will see a film, which I paid for, if I want to see it. I'll be damned if I'm ever dragged to something I have no intention of watching. Now if she pays for it to drag me in...MAYBE...but I has to be something that I may have had an interest in but never the necessary want or need to see it.

Hokeyboy

Every relationship is based around compromise, but if you find yourself consistenly dragged into situations, events, or opportunities that approximate the worst the Ludivico Treatment could ever have to offer, I suggest the relationship is a failure.

Jaymole

My wife can't stand looking at Stallone's face, she finds him repulsive....with good reason (must be all the steroids, plastic surgery and who knows what the hell else)

Michael Corvin

My wife said she's down for the Expendables but I really don't want another kid, so I'll just go see it with the guys.
