As much as I loved the movie (see my post Sex and the City: The GOOD!), I was REALLY PISSED OFF at the ending!

What the (*&)(*&C)*&)(&*)(E)((*&(*&, Carrie?

You are a smart woman!

First time, shame on him.

Second, third, fourth, fifth and twentieth time, well, shame on you!

There is no way this relationship is going to work. It wouldn’t work in real life. It won’t work in the movies.

He’s a SNAKE! I can’t stand this guy! I never have liked him (why, oh why couldn’t you have fallen for Aidan?!)

SPOILER for those who have not seen the movie!
I kept looking at Big during the movie and wondering just what she saw in him. Then he did the whole leave her at the altar thing and she mourned so much she didn’t get out of bed for three days at the honeymoon and . . . then . . . WHAT HAPPENED?!

Was it the poems? Shoot, anyone could have copied those down in an email. Maybe he should have SHOWN UP FOR THE WEDDING!

I was unhappy with Miranda, too.

I’m sorry, as a married woman who has been with the love of her life for twelve years now there is one thing I could never forgive: Infidelity. It shows such an utter lack of disregard for someone else’s feelings, thoughts, emotions.

I told my husband from the start that if he cheated on me two things would happen.

First, I would take everything he valued onto the front lawn and burn it.

Secondly, I would take what was left over and leave.

ANOTHER SPOILER ALERT!
Yet Miranda goes back.

I don’t know. I felt a little let down at the end of the movie due to the relationship factors. It seemed to me that they made it appear as though Carrie and Miranda needed those men in their lives.

What happened to those independent girls?

I get the point that they were trying to make about man and woman: Relationships are tough and you have to work really really hard sometimes and you have to deal with some things that you’d rather not deal with.

But you shouldn’t have to be shamed and then go back.

To me, this sends out the message that no matter what happens you should forgive and forget.

I don’t know, maybe it’s the hormones talking.

Maybe if it were me in those positions I would have made the same choices.

It was just a movie after all, right?!
