I’ve been worried about this Sex and the City sequel since they announced it was happening. Like so many others I thought, do we really need to go here again?
And while the answer to that question is probably still “no” I cannot lie and say that this just-released trailer didn’t make me a bit excited. I mean, these ladies played a pivotal role in my life for years and I guess you really don’t know what you got till it’s gone. Will it be hokey? Probably. But now I kind of don’t care.
The trailer opens with a little “Empire State of Mind” (still totally not sick of that song), a montage of NYC shots (always nice and we caught a glimpse of the Hearst building in there), and Carrie in that Halston dress and gold Chanel clutch. There’s also a clip that looks to be in Carrie’s old closet, some ridiculous head scarves, and a trek through the desert that is sure to be way over-the-top. I guess I am ready to “get away with the girls” once again.

I love how Carrie pulls off that turban/headwrap in one scene, really tempted me to try something like that this summer.
I am so with you on this…I was feeling apprehensive, but totally gayed out when watching that trailer.
Side note…isn’t there a song called “NY state of mind” on the Illmatic cd by Nas….just asking because that is one of the best albums ever made. that is all.
A SATC girl through and through (I even wore pink, feathered Valantino heels to the theater for the first movie), I did not want this sequel either. However, after seeing this, I’m more in the mood. Samantha had better get some serious ass in this movie…
Hope you all have a great holiday season! Can’t wait for more Fashionista in 2010. Xx

Actually, jay-z and nas were having a “battle” but they decided to call a truce because at some point they figured one of their fans would probably try and take out either j-hov or nas.
heh.
why are we talking about nas vs. Jay-Z on this??!! also, looks like it might be a tiny bit ott, and while, well, that is satc for you, there is such a thing as too too much…
Casey – if I saw you at the premiere in your shoes, I would point and roll my eyes (just like I did at the many girls with martini glasses).

Cuz why not? it seemed pertinent, sheesh.
we are talking about Jay Z and Nas because they are a hell of a lot more talented than Courtney love….who is mentioned in the post after this one. idiot.
Do we need another sequel. I don’t care how tempting the trailer looks.. bad sequels hurt a movie/series in some kinda way. (Rocky V, every Saw after part 2…just saying) I think the first movie was just like a longer episode of the show anyway.. Carrie got married.. Charlotte had another kid, Samantha is single again.. and Miranda is Miranda..the end..

….of course I’ll watch it tho….

Noah Mills at 00:54?? Read in an interview a while back that he was getting into acting.
Meh. i’m so uninspired.
As pointless as it is to complain about now, I really wish that this were set in New York. Whether or not you think the sequel is unnecessary, you know this is going to be your ultimate guilty pleasure when it comes out. I don’t need the gimmicks of the desert (though the turban is fetch and I still scour e-bay for a Prada one from many moons ago). Give me New York, give me cosmos, give me shoes, and (since it’s a film), give me really lengthy montages. A girl doesn’t need anything more. I just want to watch an hour and a half long episode of Sex and the City as it used to be… there is no need to reinvent the wheel.
And as much as I was annoyed by those who dressed up/went in costume for the first movie, I think some vodka in a thermos might be just what this movie needs.
#13; I agree, I wish it were just set in New York as well. I wonder if they’re going to Dubai (the desert scenes).
Oh Jean Voltaire, there is really no harm in having a little fun every now and then.
Get all of the SATC clothes here http://www.outfitid.com/
Casey, I love how you dressed up for the movie. Obviously “Jean Voltaire” is really insecure… I mean come on, pointing and laughing at people just because they’re having fun. That’s pathetic. Those girls carrying the martini glasses should feel happy that they made someone feel good about themselves.
@17 > I think we should go see the movie together.
I’m so relieved to see that I’m not the only one who is apprehensive about the sequel. I LOVED the first movie and thought it was the perfect ending. I agree with another poster here–I just like the formula that worked. I fear this next movie is getting too gimmicky with the desert scenes and them trying to pull off the girls in their 20′s wearing 80′s clothing which, I’m sorry, makes these women in their 40′s look like they’re in their ’50s. I LOVE SATC. And I will go to the movie, no “guilty” in my pleasure there. I just hope I’m pleasantly surprised.
Casey & @17, can I come, too? ))
These women are too old to be doing this. There is nothing exciting, edgy or interesting about this trailer. Sex and the city is just about the clothes and product placement. It’s outdated and uninspiring.
The trailer, above, seems like it was scripted and edited well before the over staffed production team decided on plot outline. Vague and the ladies look like cows.
Creators worked backwards from a profit goal to actual plot. Ugghh and that song- the cliche of cliches ate a cliche for breakfast then belched a cliche.
It’s time to idolize and fantasize about something that actually contributes to fashion.
The airport looks like marrakesh.
All i’m saying is that if they bring Trey (Kyle Maclachlan) back, I will be first in line.
#17 You’re quite pathetic yourself.
