Sex and the City movie trailer arrives!

I was, like many women, a fan of Sex and the City--though not a super duper fan like some I know. This morning's reveal of the movie teaser (to call it a trailer is a serious overstatement) has tongues a-waggin' all over the 'nets. I for one am sort of "meh" about it.

REVEALED at LAST: Carrie walks around her apartment in her underpants! Carrie and Miranda and Samantha and Charlotte walk down the street in formation! Carrie kisses Big! All this and maybe more will be in the 'Sex and The City' movie!
Rumours about the film have been rife since filming began in September. Pictures published from the film sets showed Carrie in a wedding dress, and Charlotte sporting a pregnant bump have done little to abate the excitement.
Chris Noth (Mr Big), Mario Cantone (Charlotte's best gay friend), Willie Garson (Stanford Blatch, Carrie's best gay friend) reprise their roles while Dreamgirls' Jennifer Hudson joined the cast as Carrie's assistant.
It’s a pretty generic teaser trailer that’s just announcing to the world the movie is on its way. Personally I’ve never understood the appeal of the show even to women, but there is no denying that its cultural influence was HUGE. I swear, i think if in one episode Carrie turned to the camera and commanded women everywhere to kill their lovers in their sleep… many of us penis enabled people would never have woken up to another sunrise.
And look for the tagline, which is so perfectly punny we actually shrieked when we saw it: "This Spring," reads the large purple lettering, "Get Carried Away." CARRIE-D AWAY? Oh God. We have five more months of this to deal with. What's next? "It's the Biggest Event of the Season"? "This Year, Things Get Harry With Charlotte"? "You'll Be Jonesing for More"?
After a three-year hiatus that left us with a hole in our hearts the shape of a horse's head, Sarah Jessica Parker, the old slutty one from Mannequin, the one with brown hair, and the ostrich-looking one have returned to screens to talk about men and, you know, date and wear stuff.

I appreciate that it provides a vision of exactly what it would look like if Sarah Jessica Parker's torso was consumed by a flower, but did we need to see her clad only in underwear and a cardigan? No. No, we didn't. Warning: it looks like the corpse of a reverse-centaur at a Victoria's Secret show.

good stuff:

"Get Carrie-d Away" equals worst pun ever.

I'm also a little meh about it--well actually a lot meh about it--but it's good to get this up. Thanks mardoux.

This photo was taken in Manhattan's Greenwich Village. They were filming a scene at a restaurant and a crowd was slowly gathering. The actors were not present yet as they were still setting up the winter scene by shaving a giant block of ice into fake snow in the middle of a record hot day in early October.

I would not call myself a Sex in the city fan but I have enjoyed the show on occasion. But hey, you're in Manhattan on vacation seeing the sites. I just had to take a pic or two. Jay

Taken at a promotion for her clothing line, Bitten.

Sarah Jessica Parker made an appearance at Macy's in San Francisco in Sept. 2006 to help promote her fragrance. There was about 300 ( mostly women) gathered around in a small area and it was like a real papparrazi scene with hundreds of people taking pictures & flashing cameras going off. I wasn't able to meet her or shake hands as I couldn't afford her $150.00 cologne but I watched the whole scene from about 10 feet away. She's very friendly, nice and sweet natured and she also seemed genuinely thrilled, appreciative and humbled that about 150 people lined up and purchased her cologne. She also seems like a real "regular" person, like the rest of us, and didn't seem the least bit phony or like a "Hollywood" type celebrity. It was a cool experience. Looking forward to the new movie soon!

I'm not a fan of the show (I'm more of a Deadwood guy), but I grudgingly appreciate its impact on pop culture.

Even though I enjoyed S&TC very much I think that a complete movie is a bit over-doing it. It had it's charm because they managed to make some entertaining 40 minutes but fill a full movie with the antics of these ladies? I have doubts. We'll see what happens though, it might actually surprise us.

Update: filming continues... even on beaches. "Sex and the City man-eater Kim Cattrall frolicked with her handsome co-star as she filmed steamy scenes for the new movie." (Daily Mail via Huffington Post)

First of all- the movie turned to be a total disappointment! Series is better!

Secondly, is it fair to have in mind ONLY SJP when the talk is about "sex and the city"???
