I don't think "lately" at all. It's always really been like this, I think. If it's a chick flick, it's about the girl and her journey. If it's a dick flick it's about explosions. But it can't be about the guy and his journey without being either tragic or a suspense/mystery/dick flick. It can't be about the guy and his relationship with a woman. I've got a whole bunch of gay comedies lined up on Netflix, so I have hopes for them.

The beauty of Pretty Woman, I think, is that it's about both of them.
