I find Canning Tatum ridiculously charming, funny, and hot. The first Magic Mike was far better than it had any right to be, mostly due to Soderbergh's direction, I'm guessing.
Without Soderbergh this time around, the story and directing are likely going to slide, but the trailer still looks silly and hot, and I'll probably see it anyway.
@9 He did quit the game at the end of Magic Mike, but I'm sure someone dangled a seven-figure paycheck in front of Channing Tatum's eyes, and his working-poor side said, "Fuck, yeah!"
I think I'm super proud of myself for recognizing what song was about to play after the first "yeeeh" noise, or however you would describe it, before he raises his head from the welding.
@4) Women hate being objectified - until they aren't being objectified any more. Or the wrong guys are the only ones objectifying them now [Clarence rather than Denzel]....
The scene in MM1 when Matthew McConaughey was teaching the young bro how to dance was incredible. Two men talking about their bodies and about sexuality and touching each other in a way that you normally would never see straight men doing. I say bring on Magic Mike XXL!
@15 YES! That's exactly what I was looking for in the bubbles of the vote -- flashdance for women and gay men. I love that we are taking these steps, albeit slow ones, to equality.
16 dear, I'm not a fan of McConaughey, so that clip was a bit of an ordeal to get through. But that last line made it totally worth it. I'm going to have to work it into everyday conversation.
Objectification, according to women, is the worst thing you can do to a person. It is wrong and needs to stop. It needs to be no longer acceptable to objectify anyone as it is a basic human right!
Suddenly every argument women have ever made about objectification is completely irrelevant and I now find it much manly duty to objectify women as freely as I want from this day forward. I'm talking about calling out a vagina with legs for what it is. I want women to know they are simply dirty reproductive parts that men are supposed to treat like a person...but c'mon! Women need to be treated like the little piggies they really are. Thank you, Magic Mike, for allowing women to validate how objectification is actually ok and the right thing to do!

There never is.
Think I'll mill around outside the theater and see if I can do my part to fulfill demand.

Oh look! Naked men! Woo hoo! Let's go girls! It's our turn!
