I'd be careful to label it "female porn" specifically, since that would offend some people, but if I understand correctly, what you're referring to is the kind of story that creates a world catering to every possible fantasy a girl Mia's age could ever want, yeah? It's certainly similar to porn in that respect since everything about the latter is unrealistically perfect.<br /><br />I agree, to that end. It's a theme that's coming up more and more in movies aimed at girls ages 12-24, nowadays. Just look at Divergent. It's a movie whose sole message is that the most important decision a girl will make in her life will be choosing what clique to identify with.<br /><br />Anyway, The Blacklist gets a little bit better if you keep going. I mean, not really, but it's watchable if you like James Spader. Or if you've got masochistic tendencies.

I arrived at your site because I just watched 20 minutes of the pilot episode of The Blacklist and knew that, although I have been astonished by people's willingness to watch atrocious TV series before, I could not be the only one to despise that asinine, cliche and reductive, written-by-committee, slop. Thank you for proving my sanity.<br /><br />Now on to this movie. I never saw it. But I DID see the trailer. And after becoming physically nauseous at the realization that what I was seeing was not only a serious movie, but that it existed, I had an epiphany (knowing at once that what I was seeing is something to happen continuously over the next few decades in theaters), that this movie is an introduction to a new genre: Female Porn.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
