Consider it official, it's Sex and the City month; be prepared to read about the movie up until, and past, its May 30th big screen debut. The ink's been bought by the barrell to promote this release, and even columnist Carrie Bradshaw herself never penned this many words about s-e-x during her career.
NYMag starts things off chatting with the star, Sarah Jessica Parker, in what translates into a seven-page piece. For those who blame SJP for the bus-loads of transplants infiltrating Manhattan and transforming the cityscape, you should know her husband agrees with you.
Parker and Broderick keep a running count of these changes, a mutual mourning for the transformation of their neighborhood into a luxe, tree-lined shopping mall. She knows this sounds absurd coming from her, that people blame Sex and the City for the ruination of the West Village; even Broderick says, “That’s your fault!”amNewYork follows with the sentiment that Sex and the City is to blame for the influx of Carries coming to town. The cast defends themselves, though they can't deny that their stoops are being replaced with 40-story buildings.
"When people come up to me on the street and say, 'I just got here from Iowa two weeks ago. Your show made me come. I'm like, 'Oh no,'" said Nixon, who plays reprising Miranda Hobbes. "People do come here looking for love, but what do they find?"Most recently SJP told her fawning fanbase that Brooklyn was the new "place to be", despite the show shunning it when it ran on HBO. Meanwhile, over at The NY Times, director Michael Patrick King focused on another rumor surrounding the movie. Spoiler alert?! No one's gonna kick the bucket with their Manolo-clad feet in the film.
"You don't know how many people came up to me when I was making the movie and said, 'So is somebody going to die?' Yup. Happy summer. Thanks for your $10. Enjoy your Diet Coke. Someone's going to die. Like that's what I'm going to do."They'll undoubtedly save that plotline for the sequel.

Anyone who goes to see this should be sent on the first bus back to the midwest, where you belong.
"Your show made me come."
And right afterwards I bought my plane ticket to New York.
I blame her for the influx of not really pretty but not ugly chicks who are really high maintenance. Business class boring bitches who only believe in money and going to bars and drinking cosmos all night.
I think if someone comes here and they stick it out, then they belong here anyway. If they don't belong, they will go back to Nebraska within a few months.

Right, this place became the biggest city in the world because no one moved here before that TV show.
I might actually go watch this movie if one of the four main characters got knocked off, or not.
Why would I pay to watch "Sex Lives of Poorly Preserved Urban Nymphomaniac Cougars," when I could get the torrent version starring Nina Hartley? At least she's a decent "actress" whose face doesn't look like a foot.
MAKE IT STOP.
Hey Sarah, why the long face?
""Your show made me come..."
What Cynthia didn't say was that he was referring only to the episodes with Mario Cantrone.
Which kind of says it all.
someone please make these stupid trannies go away once and for all...
Damn right it's SJP's fault. Maybe when the economy goes down in the dumpster and the crime rate skyrockets, the out-of-towners will go back out of town. That would be sweet. If you can't take the heat...

If you don't know the difference between transplants of the past who came here and contributed compared to those who came here expecting to be fabulous and sip cosmos in the meat packing district, then I'll personally pay for your ticket out of here.
Great. A movie about the aging whores. Aging whores everywhere are expected to flock to it.
Who cares WHY people come here? Since when is being a judgmental snot so much better than a country rube.
because when you come here and pay high rents for the S&TC fantasy life you displace normal working class families
If it were my movie, these schlepping schluts would meet their sexual match in "Tony", a serial killing hedge fund manager who would treat them to some rough sex and then kill them, cut them up, and leave their bodyparts along the NJ Turnpike in hefty bags.
#18, to make it interesting: Tony would volunteer his Saturday afternoons being a "Big Brother" to a motherless poor minority kid, imparting his serial killer wisdom into the 'youth'. Sunday mornings would be spent in Church where he stuggles trying to reconcile his bloodlust with his Christian faith.
To make it triple interesting, Tony would meet the SITC whores at a fundraiser for Tsunami victims and Darfur refugees.

robingee I care who comes here and so do 99 percent of the natives here. I care when I see a city that once had so much to offer dwindling into a shopping mall to appease the new breed.
