Which movie should I see?

I've got some free time this afternoon, so I've decided to go see a movie! Of the following, which would you see?

Sweet Home Alabama
My Big Fat Greek Wedding

Hurry! The shows start in one hour! Thanks!

My Big Fat Greek Wedding

It was hilarious I can't say anything about Sweet Home Alabama, as I haven't seen it yet...but MBFGW is a must-see!!!

No movie today.

I got to the theatre and was shocked to see 5,854 junior high kids milling about in front of it. That's when the light bulb went off - today is Veteran's Day! I was looking forward to a nice quiet theatre all to myself, so the movie going has been postponed to tomorrow.

awww... tough luck on the movie; i'm pretty sure school's still in around here though *geez* too bad *I* didn't get the day off!

I'd go see Sweet Home Alabama though (I'm a HUGE Reese fan )

They are both great movies, but I would choose to see My Big Fat Greek Wedding. It's so funny! Or maybe it was that they reminded me of my family, even though I'm not greek... Hmmm..

I liked My Big Fat Greek Wedding.. I took my girlfriend to it (one of those movies you take them to with the intention of not liking it) and it turned out halfway decent.

A hell of a lot better than Sweet Home Alabama though.

I have seen both.. and I would say My Big Fat Greek Wedding.. even though I like both but if I had to choose. Sweet Home Alabama was real girly and cheesy but I like those movies sometimes. Plus it reminded me of my life (sweet Home Alabama).. so much that my current boyfriend didnt like it that much bc of that.

I've seen them both. SHA was cute, but cheezy and predictable

MBFGW was hilarious. I want to see it again. Its much more original than SHA.

Well, I saw My Big Fat Greek Wedding and LOVED it! It's definitely on my list to purchase when it comes out on DVD. Although we're not Greek, my family has some things in common with the movie, and I loved the contrast with Ian's Lincoln Park/North Shore family vs. her Greektown clan. Thanks for the suggestions, guys!
