Best Movie To Watch With A Girl
 
Alright,

It's a well known fact that asking a girl if she wants to watch a movie with you is pretty much guaranteed ass in college.

What are some of the best movies to watch that are similar to Garden State, the ultimate in this genre of films.

Obviously, "romantic comedies" are good.

Here are some of my suggestions but I want more.

Garden State
Just Friends
Just Like Heaven

Best movie to help you get laid:

The Notebook

Take her to see 'The Devil Wears Prada', which she will love and you might too.

Rounders

if she leaves, she sucks and doesn't deserve vaginal penetration

If I want to watch rounders, I don't deserve to penetrate.

That's where Anal Addicts 12 comes in.

Eternal Sunshine on the Spotless Mind is pretty good if the girl is somewhat intelligent. If she's a moron you can just fall back on any Ferrell/Vaugn/Stiller/Wilson comedy.

- Before Sunset
- Say Anything (old school!)

What's the general consensus on a classic like Casablanca?

You might as well have color bars. Neither of you will actually watch it.

Donnie Darko.

Casablanca is pretty much a lock, UNLESS the girl is one of those who have a thing against older, B&W movies. This group of people is surprisingly large, I'm sad to say.

Great movie obv, but seriously not a lock at all imo. Black and white is a negative. Humphrey Bogart is not someone any girl in 2006 wants to look at. You'll be staring at Bergman the whole movie, and it's just Nazi immigration whatnot during the early part.

Quickly sorts out if she's a nasty penis-hating-femmo type.

When I first met my now boyfriend, I used to get drunk at parties and have him drive me to the porn store where I would rent a variety of films. Then, when he dropped me off, I would run into my house quickly with said films, leaving him with no chance of coming in, and with a lonely drive home.

I was a cold hard emasculating bitch. I'm glad he stuck with me.

I've gotten laid watching Baseketball, but it's significantly more awkward to go in for the kiss close when Trey Parker is mooning his ass and yelling "How to speak San Franciscan. VOGINA"

This is true. I entered this thread to name this one. On top of this, it's surprisingly enjoyable and funny even for guys who hate romantic comedies.

You mean guaranteed for her? It's not guaranteed for you unless she does the inviting.

The correct answers are:

Before Sunrise/Before Sunset
If she's open to something foreign, Cinema Paradiso.
If she's quirky/artsy/weird, then Buffalo '66.

how to lose a guy in 10 days

Correct Answer I just Realized:

When Harry Met Sally or Sleepless in Seattle.

I 2nd Love Actually and Notting Hill, both good romantic comedies.

I think 99.9% of movies will work, you have already got her agreeing to enjoy your company. I would show here my collection and let her choose.

and FWIW One Night in Paris has worked for me using this method

Biggest problem with a movie like this is it's awkward to suggest because it borders the line of being too sappy.

Yeah, anything too weepy isn't going to work. Every girlfriend I know has cried buckets at that movie. She might even refuse to watch it if she knows it's history. Go for something nostalgic or romancy, but not for the red eyes from crying.

If you're going to suggest a movie like Love Actually, Serendipity or The Notebook, you might as well just tell her you're gay and need to be cuddled and comforted because your boyfriend dumped you.

I think it's pretty standard to watch romantic comedies with a girl and says nothing about your sexual orientation.

Depends on what kind of chick you're trying to bang.

I got laid after watching 'The Wall' in college.

Freaky rocker chicks need love too.
