Well, there’s been a big ‘controversy’ about the new poster for Sex and the City 2 because the girls are Photoshopped to look like they did, you know, TEN years ago when the original series was on HBO. Okay, so maybe it’s more like Sarah Jessica Parker looking younger than she did on Square Pegs and Kim Catrall younger than she did in Porky’s. But really, who cares? The truth will come out when the movie is on cable in a year from now–in HD….
But I got a major idea from all this griping about the girls not being ‘real’ on the poster, combined with recent comments by the girls admitting that, no they don’t always get along on the set during 19 hour days, but there’s still a camaraderie they can’t deny. Gee, why does that sound familiar? Oh! The Real Housewives! I’m currently being bombarded by the New York City and Jersey wives as both series are running simultaneously, and damn–all these bitches do is FIGHT. ‘Real’ or not, this shit is becoming repetitive!!! Girls night out, everyone gets into a fight…girls night out, everyone gets into a fight. Give them a script already so we can be entertained.
And that’s where my idea comes in. Before they release a Sex and the City 3 movie, they need to follow Sarah Jessica Parker, Kim Catrall, Kristen Davis, and Cynthia Nixon around with cameras the entire time they are filming the third movie, and then edit that continuous cat fight into a Bravo series entitled The Real Girls of Sex and the City. Now that’s the kind of series reboot I’m talking about (two series reboots, actually). When I’m not busy being a marketer’s dream by scoffing up any chocolate that hits the shelves with the words “NEW!” or “Limited Edition” on them, I’m a marketing genius.
