"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

I thought this movie would suck...perhaps that's why I was so surprised.

For me, the first one was great and the second one sucked.

But this one ripped both of them to shreds. Suspenseful scenes, amazing special effects, great cast...and such a twisting plot, I really had no idea what was going to happen next...and I've seen plenty of movies.

I have no clue how it got bad reviews from critics. Like I said, personally, I was starting to hate Tom Cruise with all the hype over the Katie Holmes thing, and how it was all possibly to get attention for his upcoming MI3...with the baby being recently born and all.

Nonetheless, I was definitely impressed. They really did a great job, and I really was left trying to piece things together after it was over.

Screw the critics, I usually agree with them, but not on this one. Although I haven't seen what Roger Ebert has written yet...he's the only critic whose reviews I respect.

Anyway, enough talk...go see the movie!
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

I saw the movie and I really enjoyed it! I'd recommend any dude that's taking a chick out to a movie to pick MI3.

I thought it was pretty crazy. Enjoyable, ridiculous action and some good twists.

JJ Abrams directed it. Same person that did LOST and Alias. That's probably why it was better than the other two.

this is the best of 3 Mission Impossible movies. I usually hate tom cruise too. I still hate the SOB. The action scenes were well coordinated. Let's see if 007 movie can match it.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

only thing I complain about is Kayne West's ****ty song that came out with it. Rap is ruining everything. His gay song has nothing to do with MI:3

Not everything, but it has a LOT to do with it. Kanye is one of the hottest commodities for the younger market. Guess what market MI:3 was targeting.

See the coincidence?

You can complain about his artistic style, but the numbers are the numbers: Kanye is a chart topper. So it's only logical for the producers to put him on the lineup...

critics hate movie with manly themes. If the movie was about 2 homo cowboys it would have gotten thumbs up all over the place! movies with manly themes such as all out action/violence/guns get bad reviews by critics. For example Scarface, the classic movie was ambushed by the critics when it came out and they even criticized Pacino! Can you believe that? Pacino "the man" gave a performance out of this world and he didn't even get nominated for a freaking oscar!

f____ the critics

He also did felicity. If you notice he recycles actors from show to show like David E. Kelly does.
 

"She's Out of Your League"

You've said it a hundred times. Maybe a thousand. And every time you say it, you train your brain to freeze the next time she walks into the room.

Leagues are a myth invented by guys who are scared of women.

She's a person. She has bad breath in the morning. She picks songs she can't sing in the shower. She overthinks her own texts.

Walk over. Say something. The league dissolves the second you open your mouth.
