So I have a movie date this weekend with a lady friend. How should I politely suggest we should watch Rush without looking like an inconsiderate douchebag that has no interest in knowing what movie she wants to see? Is Chris Hemsworth enough of a selling point for the ladies? Suggestions Opponauts?

Start with rottentomatoes, movie got an 89% rating. Enough said. I generally approach them with the "ohh it got better reviews" line, then i drool over cars while they sit awkwardly next to me.

"I want to see Rush, that cool with you?"

I mean seriously, women are also humans. You don't need to speak some crazy version of code to them.

Rotten Tomatoes reviews of the films that are in theaters right now? I'm pretty sure it wins.

That exactly what I wanted to tag. . .

Is it a first date? If so, I don't suggest a movie at all. If not, just start talking about how much you love F1 and cars in general while throwing in good points about the movie and she will either be fascinated or she will accept the reality and go anyway.

Ask her what movie she wants to see. If it sucks, tell her it does, and then tell her you are going to rush and she can do whatever she wants. You're welcome.

Tell her Olivia Wilde is in it. Girls like Olivia Wilde right?

If your lady friend will debase herself by being attracted to the White Devil, Chris Hemsworth should be fine.

This pretty much.

Women are people. People can be spoken to in terms of normal conversation. No hidden meaning required.

Or in new age speak "Yo gurl, we watching dat Rush morrow all goood?"

Ask her if she has idea of what she wants to see.:

#1 - If she doesn't, suggest Rush. Say it's a drama from the same director of A Beautiful Mind featuring Chris Hemsworth.

#2 - If she does, ask her about the movie she suggested. If she insists on how good it is, go for it. But if she seems a bit hesitant or open to suggestions, follow #1.

Addendum to this. Women almost never say what movie they want to see, although you know they do, and they judge you on your pick most of the time.

If you asked her out,then you should be able to pick the movie. Simple as that. And I don't think its being inconsiderate. Movie has been talked about for having more than car action. Some drama and allure of love (maybe of cars/racing). So its also not a bad date movie. Just every now and then throw (whisper) in a funny remark to give you some attention points.

You must compliment the awesomeness of her ass. If you don't, there's no way for her to know whether or not you're interested in her. You must mention it as many times as you possibly can, and throw as many anal jokes in there as you can. If she agrees to kiss you, right before she leans in, loudly announce " I'M GOING TO GRAB YOUR ASS NOW" and do it, regardless of what happens. It's the only way to win her heart.

...

What? No, I'm not that guy she was talking to a few weeks ago. Of course I'm not trying to intentionally and permanently sabotage your date, and any chance of your having any contact with her ever again. Why would you even think that?

"Oh hey, there's this movie I wanna see that's just come out called Rush. It's based on a true story about these two yin-and-yang racing drivers from the 1970s and how their rivalry evolves through a crazy F1 season where one of them has a terrible accident. It's got great reviews and the guy from Thor's in it. Interested?"

Try that, or a version thereof.

You don't. You watch whatever she picks. You can always see the movie next week. Score those points now.

Always see what she wants to see. It's always about her, never you. The movie will be in theaters for months.

Could not disagree more. Women are not humans. They are aliens. "that cool with you?" Good luck on a second date with that one. You don't think women have an ulterior motive or test in damn near everything they say? Because they do. It's just a movie, see whatever the hell she wants. Go see Rush next week with your boys.

I can now see clear as day all the sex you are not having.

No hidden meanings when conversing with a woman? You gotta be joking. Everything has multiple meanings and they can react in a totally illogical way with just the slightest miswording in your replies.

You're a joke kid. I slay. You'll never regret what you think about me, but you will one day regret that you think women don't speak in code. Good luck with that.

Victorious Secret > delete-me-please123

No, that just means you don't understand women.

Which is to say, there is nothing to understand. Men like to think women are so complicated...they aren't. I assure you, there are women who look at men the same way thinking "the fuck is that man thinking being all moody and shit" or whatever it is.

Both sides do it, that isn't some defining trait.

I had the same problem tonight, it's not first date but it is still early. I really want to see it, there isn't a whole lot else in theaters, but I didn't suggest it. Looking like pub night with her friends, which is fine by me, I want to meet her friends, and this scenario likely plays better in my favor.

delete-me-please123 > Victorious Secret
09/20/2013 at 18:57

Yeah, it's me. I don't. Both you kids will either learn you something soon or just go home to the 4th girl you've ever fucked, your fat ass wife with that fat ass.

Nah, just pointing out your future. Enjoy the bottom of the barrel.

Don't project your rather apparently poor outlook on life onto me, I'm flattered but you can keep your pessimism to yourself.

I can see how you've had such rampant success with women, you're a shining example of class and composure.

Hey, we should make a new least favorite Oppo poster thread.

Victorious Secret > PanchoVilleneuve ST
09/20/2013 at 19:06

I like this idea.

Because, you know, we're gonna be going home to the 4th girl we've ever fucked, who has a fat ass; why not have some fun with it?

09/20/2013 at 19:11

You got it all backwards there tough guy. I was trying to help you with your inexperience. But its cool, continue to fail and keep telling yourself that her ass isn't "that big".

"Yo gurl, we watching dat Rush morrow all goood?"

Good one bro. You'll go far.

Looks like someone missed the joke somewhere in my original post and has since been taking things a little too seriously.

Your maturity, as always, is splendid. You must've been dropped a few times as a child.

Or you're just the classic internet commenting warrior, because you seem to know everything there is about life.

Sorry, I'll defer to your experience on life next time around.

Might as well do something with all your free time. Must be a slow week for new xbox games.

A date is supposed to show her what you are like. Of course you don't always want to launch her head first into your world, subtlety goes a long way. So actually saying that its "never about you" will lead you to the "but you weren't like that" situation.
