It always felt to me that they made the nanny gay so Charlotte wouldnt have to worry about Harry cheating on her instead of just making Harry reassure her theres nothing to worry about. It always felt like "oh you dont have to worry about your husband cheating on you because the nanny is gay!" rather than 'he can just be an absolute normal human being who can restrain himself and not cheat because he loves and respects his wife.'

Poor Kim Catrell. This is where Samantha was character assassinated. It is beyond cringe. She lost her dignity here. It was appalling what she was made to go through in this movie. Apparently, she objected and was threatened with lawsuits. It led to her fallout with Sarah Jessica Parker who she said was instrumental in the utter wreckage of the second entry's direction into the ditch and is a total vacuous fake.

I agree wholeheartedly that the conversation between Miranda and Charlotte is by far the best / only worthwhile scene of the movie. It's really heartwarming and relatable to see them being real and honest about how hard being a mother actually is.

I feel like there's some kind of next level ennui I don't understand that comes with being able to afford two New York apartments... surely that's somehow part of why the idea of staying home for an evening instead of endlessly attending dinners at restaurants called "Le Sink" is so terrifying to her, right? She needs the impending notion that she's about to be approached by a server and offered a menu, lest the thoughts about her life begin to creep in.

The only reason why she was able to afford her first apartment is because it was rent controlled. Then, when the building went co-op, Aiden came in to save the day by buying it for her. Then, after she cheated on him with Big, lying to all her friends about it, making his wife faceplant at the base of a stairwell busting her face, and manipulating Charlotte who got her "nice" apartment from her own divorce settlement (it's not like she and Trey didn't try to make things work) as well as Charlotte's inability to find a good job because she was over qualified (docents are supposed to be retired people who love art) by making her sell her engagement ring because Aiden was suing her for money lost. I think my point in that rambling was: Carrie paid a cheap rent since the 1980s, then never had to make any sacrifices to buy it.

The movie came out after the 2008 financial crash so its extravagant displays of 1% consumerism were also in very poor taste. Michael Patrick King, inexplicably promoted to showrunner (probably because he flattered SJP and not because of his life experience as a single woman) has said he wanted to cheer up the audience, but he is bad at his job and lying. It’s that all the luxury brands paying to be in the movie didn’t want to be featured alongside realistic financial struggles, but rather displayed against a background of grotesque opulence. Really emblematic how this show about sex became a show about non-essential lifestyle spending, in the grand tradition of US culture converting basic human needs and desires into overpriced consumer goods. Sad and pathetic loss of a once groundbreaking project.

It was most definitely Carrie's whiniest movie. She finally got the guy and now she whined throughout the whole movie about how 'boring' they were becoming. It actually became a fear of hers turning into a boring old couple even though theres literally nothing wrong with that. She pushed Big into going to a movie premier with her even though he was exhausted then got annoyed with what he did whilst there. Then goes to Abu Dhabi and argues about how seeing Aiden 'means something'. She was absolutely insufferable. The definition of a spoilt girl - never satisfied.

I think the fact this movie exists might be a hate crime

I felt bad for Charlotta already when she, by the initiative of her husband, had to give up her Christian faith, which was a part of her personality, just in order to get the chance to be with him, because he admitted, that he would only marry a Jewish woman. And after she did it - for his sake! - and started learning, how to be a proper Jewish wife, - he not only did not appreciate her sacrifice, but left her! If that was not a huge red flag, then what was it?! Dear ladies, - never, - and I mean NEVER! - sacrifice anything for a man. Men just don't appreciate it. If a man wants you to sacrifice your faith, or dignity, or career, - he does not love you. And men, who don't love - they cheat. Period.

I think it's interesting to think that the movie's bad humanization of the women in Abu Dhabi makes a bit more sense when looking at this movie at the time it was released. Part of the Sex and the City series was made post 9/11 when there was a lot of racism and discrimination against Middle Eastern people. Patriotism and islamophobia seeped its way into every corner of American media. So the only way for these white, probably WASP-y writers to humanize these women is to do a very distasteful "they're just like us" scene. "These women actually LOVE America!! They HATE their own culture and WORSHIP ours!!" It's gross, it's icky, and it perfectly encapsulates how many American writers tried to not be racist. By instead being nationalist.

1. I took a class with a nurse who used to regularly travel from Saudi Arabia to France (I know, fancy) and she said that they used to announce when they left Saudi airspace they would announce it and everyone wearing head coverings would start removing them - and many of them revealed them to cocktail dresses. It likely would have been around the 1970s, so that also tracks with how people used to dress for travel (it used to be a bit more formal to travel). 2. Once a woman at my gym wore a burqini! I was rather surprised, I live in suburbia, but I’m curious not rude, so I glanced at her occasionally… and I couldn’t help but be filled with the feeling that it seemed SO COMFORTABLE? She was wrangling a toddler, getting in and out of the water… that’s kind of a lot of movement for a garment, and it looked to be moving seamlessly with her, I did not see her having to readjust. It was, in fairness, like a brand name (I think it may have even been Nike?) burqini, so I’m sure you could get ones that are worse, but this looked like actual swimwear. And I’ve found out since that there are people with certain sensory issues and disorders who benefit from head coverings? I’m not sure I’m that person, but… well, it would probably be useful to both Muslims AND people with these specific medical problems if we stopped having a huge stick up our butts about head coverings…

SATC II is an empty, capitalist nightmare. There's literally nothing but pointless opulence. Even fashion is lacking. Before it was personal, interesting and innovative. The fashion department mixed street fashion with designer pieces. It was bold, unique and eye-catching. SATC II is an endless ad spot with poor writing, bad characters and a boring story. It was when all characters underwent the process of flanderization, and this was the moment when they stripped Miranda of her pride, and made her a cringy, socially inept and silly person. Miranda was smart, was clever and learned quickly but in SATC II she was unable to pronounce words she asked people to teach her. This deafness has been borrowed during the writers' panel for the TV reboot. SATC was never an intellectual feast with minimum of luxury but the second movie is just a travesty.

I had to endure this turd with some friends of mine in the theater when it came out. When Big gives Carrie the black diamond I said out loud "black because it matches her soul".

My only prior knowledge of SATC comes from listening to maybe 5 episodes of that podcast where they just rewatch SATC2 for 50 times in a row. I've got a pretty good mental map of the plot of the film from that, but know nothing else. I'm pretty excited to finally see what mister Big looks like, it's frankly pretty big for me.
