The Budget Fashionista

Woo hoo, I love SATC and though I liked the movie it wasn’t as great as I had hoped (a little depressing actually) and I would love to spend another two hours with my favorite gals from NYC.

I would love to see a SATC2 just to see the incredible fashion, but everything ended so perfectly in the first one.  What could the second one possible be about, SJP having a baby?  Would we really want to see THAT?

This news actually bums me out a bit.  Although I liked the movie OK, I think it pales in comparison to the TV series. I’ve been watching the re-runs and I’d forgotten how perfectly the series wrapped up —with Samantha still hooked up with Smith, and Carrie finally ending up with Mr. Big—that I don’t think the first movie was really necessary.  Fun, perhaps, but a bit contrived—throwing a monkey wrench between Carrie/Big and breaking up Sam and Smith after being devoted to each other for so long.  A second movie would be overkill.

If a sequel is to be made, I think it should be set several years into the future, perhaps far enough that Charlotte’s and Miranda’s children are pretty grown up, and the girls are facing a completely different stage of life...that might be interesting.
