What Women Want: Difference between revisions

''What Women Want'' is a 2000 comedy starring [[Mel Gibson (Creator)|Mel Gibson]] as Nick Marshall, an advertising executive who holds a really strong "Alpha Male" outlook on life, thanks to having a Vegas showgirl for a mother. He's skilled at marketing products to men, as well as romancing numerous women. Word at his agency is his boss Dan Wanamaker (Alan Alda) is looking for a new creative director, and Nick is convinced it'll be him, but it turns out he's hired Darcy McGuire (Helen Hunt), so as to broaden their appeal to women.

* [[A Mind Is a Terrible Thing Toto Read]]: Nick thinks this way until he starts using it to get ahead at his job and improve his relationships with other women, including his daughter.

* [[Cursed Withwith Awesome]] / [[Blessed Withwith Suck]]: For a strong willed guy like Nick who has the ability to change his ways or manipulate women into doing what he wants this power is awesome. However, for a weaker man the knowledge that every woman hates you constantly forcing its way into your brain would probably leave you an emotional cripple.
