3.
A poor excuse for a movie that usually ends of with people crying, not because of the plot, but because of how they wasted $6.50 on a movie ticket. Also it seems that the only type of people that watch them are either chicks and guys who go out with the chicks.
Chick flicks are a waste of money.

6.
A genre of movies that has been formed all on it's own combining the genres of Romance, Drama, and Comedy. These movies are filled with cliche after cliche, yet so irresistable for the female population to go out and see the next version. Each contains the same plot with the Character names changed. Producers see sales of these movies soar when the members of the female population are eithe PMSing or just plain MSing. Must have Kleenex box in hand.
