Chick Flick (n.)—Any movie that indulges in the hopes and dreams of women, follows the formula unpopular girl + cute boy – malicious snob = love, and results in completely unrealistic and totally predictable happiness. Below is a flashback of the top ten most timeless chick flicks from the early 2000’s.

Most Memorable Quote: “If you take your nose out of the air for one second you’ll see that you’re designer, I’m vintage. You’ve got a mansion, I’ve got a five floor walkup. You’re snotty little miss cranky pants and I go with the flow, so why would you ever think for one second that I’d ever have the same taste in guys?”

5. John Tucker Must Die (2006)

1. 10 Things I Hate About You (1999)

Most Memorable Quote:

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair. 

I hate the way you drive my car, I hate it when you stare.

I hate your big, dumb combat boots and the way you read my mind. 

I hate you so much it makes me sick — It even makes me rhyme. 

I hate the way you’re always right. I hate it when you lie. 

I hate it when you make me laugh — Even worse when you make me cry. 

I hate it when you’re not around. And the fact that you didn’t call. 

But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you — Not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.
