Working Girl (1988)

Date Watched: 7th February 2017

Referenced in: 1x19 and 6x05

Rating:  ★★★★☆

First off all the amount of shirtless Harrison Ford in this film, yes, thank you, more please. Second of all, this star studded cast is BRILL. I love Sigourney Weaver even though she’s a dick in this film. The whole Jack thing was a bit predictable but it was a funny feel good film.

Let the river run bitchez.

1x19, Emily in Wonderland (2001) Lorelai references the film after seeing Emily in a suit and sneakers. LORELAI: I can't picture you at Teriyaki Joe's . . .or in jogging shoes. What's up working girl? EMILY: Well, Rory decided that we should take the grand tour of the town; that meant walking. I hope you don't mind, I borrowed your socks also. LORELAI: Oh, I don't mind. I wish I had a camera, but I don't mind. RORY: I'm gonna go show her the grounds. LORELAI: Oh yeah, good. On the way back, show her the gym. Jump on the treadmill. RORY: See you later. LORELAI: Make sure you stretch first.

6x05, We've Got Magic to Do (2005) Paris says she watched Working Girl to prepare for her first job. RORY: Hey, Paris. PARIS: Rory, I clocked in. RORY: Cool! PARIS: They gave me this card, and it had my name on it. And I shoved it in the clock thing, and it made the punchy sound, and I'm officially on the job. RORY: Great! PARIS: And I'm prepared too. I was a little nervous last night about making small talk with co-workers. So I went to the video store and rented "Working Girl" and the first season of "Just Shoot Me". Got a couple of Wendie Malick bon mots that have already come in handy. RORY: Very good. Welcome. PARIS: Thanks, boss.

Queen of Outer Space (1958)

Date Watched: 7th February 2017

Referenced in: 1x19 

Rating:  ★☆☆☆☆

Ok so a classic old timey space film, with a play on the whole men are from Mars women are from Venus. First film I’ve seen w/ Zsa Zsa in as well which was cool cause she as a person is referenced a few times in the show. There’s so much objectification of women in this film though, makes me cringe and the tracker noise is hella annoying.

It’s kinda just an hour an a half of nothing happening except some astronaut guys just talking bout how hot all the women are and basically are only valued the whole time through their appearance. And the last 10 minutes is just annoying noise.

KIRK: You are now officially disturbing not just me but every person in this theater. LORELAI: Kirk, you're the only one who's disturbed.
