I read this today and was kind of shocked to hear they're in talks to make a third Sex and the City movie. I have to say, I loved the series and the characters - I watched the whole thing on DVD after it was already off the air and thought it was great. I enjoyed the Candace Bushnell book as well. I was not a fan of the movies at all. The first one was moderately watchable but I thought the second movie was an abomination.
I felt like the series writing was crisp and everything was well-paced but the movies just seemed cheesy and not funny or clever at all. In fact, by the second movie, I was actually coming to loathe the characters I used to really like. The characters were written at their best as thirty-somethings but as the actresses aged and the characters antics didn't, they all just became annoying to me. Do you think there's anything left to say in a third film?
"I think there's one last chapter to tell': Sarah Jessica Parker reveals she's hoping to make Sex And The City 3 SOON"
The first big-screen adaptation was loved by fans worldwide, while the second was panned by critics.
But despite Sex And The City 2's poor reception, Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed she hasn't ruled out reprising her role as Carrie Bradshaw for a third movie in the franchise.
However, the 48-year-old actress added in the interview with InStyle magazine that the follow-up film would have to happen soon - before she's too old to break out the Manolo Blahniks again.
She said: 'A part of me thinks there is one last chapter to tell. But timing is a peculiar thing. It isn't a decision that can wait forever.'
What will happen? It remains to be seen what would happen with Carrie and Big in the third film
Sarah Jessica added that she didn't want the sequel to be left so long that she and her castmates would be left wearing 'muumuus' - a type of shapeless dress which hangs loosely from the shoulders - instead of the eye-catching fashions their characters are famous for.
The star's comments come after her co-star Kristin Davis - who plays prim and proper Charlotte in the TV series and spin-off films - admitted in December they were in 'discussion' about potentially making a third movie. She said: 'I don't think a third film is a pipe dream, there is discussion. People talk about it amongst the people who are the players, but I don't know if it will come together. It would be very exciting if it did.'
However, Cynthia Nixon, who plays Miranda, has been less enthusiastic about the possibility of getting back together with the old gang, which also includes Kim Cattrall as man-obsessed Samantha, ten years after the HBO show ended. Quizzed about a third film, Cynthia previously replied: 'I think it's fine to let it go.'
And Sex And The City author Candace Bushnell previously revealed she thinks Sarah Jessica is too old to reprise her role as Carrie once again.
