Top 5 Man Movies to Force Upon Your Girlfriend
71So she made you watch The Notebook again, huh?
Don't worry mate, this list is made JUST for you so you can make her suffer through watching every single explosion, memorable quote and war chant. I feel your pain, The Notebook is like 6 hours long.
It seems it's been an age-old tradition for women to make their partners do/watch things that they have zero interest in. I certainly can't remember any of my girlfriends ever saying, "You know what babe? Lets watch that action flick you like" Instead it was always, "I fancy a quiet night in, I'll bring over Mean Girls" or something similarly horrifying. BUT NO MORE, GENTS. Today we stand up to our emasculating ball-and-chains, today we make THEM watch what WE want. Stay strong.
1. Starship Troopers
THE KING, THE UNDENIABLE LORD OF ACTION FILMS. Starship Troopers is about as Gung-Ho as it gets, a bunch of spacemarines get sent to alien planets to kill millions of giant man-eating bugs because somehow they managed to use Giant-PlasmaBomb-Firing bugs to shoot into the atmosphere and hurl asteroids at Earth. Features more flying limbs than you can shake a stick at, aswell as genuine brain-sucking aliens. Annoyingly hot female's in uniform too, thought I'd throw that out there.
If you have any testosterone left in that whipped shell of a man-body left, you'll love this film... and she'll hate it.
"COME ON YOU APES, YOU WANNA LIVE FOREVER?!"
2. 300
This film just has to be in this list.. an army of hench Alpha Males roaring bloody murder as they slaughter thousands of the invading Persians. Not to mention it's filled with meme-fueling quotes such as "TONIGHT WE DINE IN HELL" which never gets boring. There's not much else to say, if you're a MAN (yes a MAN, not simply just a male in the biological sense, a MAN) then you should have seen this film atleast a handful of times already.
Word of warning, if you're not in decent shape then the CGI-Abs in this film will make you feel amazingly inadequate while sitting next to your girl.
3. Iron Man
Okay so he's rich, he's a technological genius, he has a hot assistant, and then on a whim he decides to build an indestructible suit of armour that lets him fly supersonic on the edge of space, shoot rockets, blow up tanks and wage a 1-man war on terror... Anyone else a little jealous?
Soak it up, this film is basically my entire childhood.... except it was all imaginary and my suit of armour consisted of an empty lego-bucket with eye holes on my head and oven mitts.
4. 28 Days Later
One of my favourite films of all time. This film took the Zombie-Genre to a whole new level and showed how truly terrifying they can be, it's fastpaced, gory and plain sadistic at times. I'm one of those guys that loves Zombie films, Zombie books, generally fantasizing about a Zombie apocalypse, but when it comes to 28 Days Later.... I start to reconsider.
If shes a delicate enough flower, your girlfriend should spend half the film wincing or covering her eyes.
5. Die Hard
Die Hard. Just think about that for a second. Die Hard.... Can you seriously think of a name that's any more badass? Didn't think so. John McClain brings the pain.
Yippi-Ki-Yay.
Disclaimer: I cannot be held responsible for any marital or relationship issues that arise from force feeding your partner these incredibly amazing films revolving around destruction and superawesome explosions.

The bf made me watch 300..
28 days later is an awesome film
I'm a huge Die Hard fan...have seen them all and my boyfriend could care less about them.
@BWD
Yah...and I love zombie movies..They are too exciting! hahaha..plus some humor equals a perfect film which aims to entertain and not to give us some idea how good our 3D animation and effects are..ahaha..
Anyways, IMO, any movie is worth watching as long as my love is right beside me and he enjoys it.
Interesting hub BTW.

Commando. Awesome. No Chuck Norris, got to get Chuck Norris on that list, lol. Great subject. Maybe make the list a top 10 to add at least 2 Chuck Norris films. And, Scarface or The Godfather.Well written also.
Really? Starship Troopers is that good? Guess I should see it @_@
WOW... I only ever seen Die Hard... I would say Clerks and any of the Bourne movies
I didn't see the Godfather on the list :)
I haven't seen any of these movies-- but this was a very funny list. Your short reviews provided all I need to know. Great hub-- and congrats on your Facebook appearance.
I own "Starship Troopers!" My husband has taken me to see all except "28 Days Later." I can not get him to see any of the movies I want to see. I view those with my female relatives or friends.
Great article! I think my favorite has to be Die Hard (never gets old!). Thanks and congrats on being listed on the Hubpages Facebook page.
Oh dear, I've only seen Die Hard and Iron Man. Die Hard made me want to die myself. And Iron Man was entertaining, but not my cup of tea. Still, I don't mind watching guy movies sometimes... and this was a fun hub to read!
You can add to this list, Black Hawk Down, Real men love it women hate it.
Fight Club, Male testosterone all the way.
Taken, leeam neeson's at his best.
Rambo,almost any stallone film women hate, of course Everyone hates his "Comedies"
The Alamo, the John Wayne version of course.
