So today is Flag Day. Well what better way to show your appreciation for the American Flag than to wear it. As a thong. Put your hand over your crotch, face the gif, and repeat after me.
I pledge allegiance to the Cast of Magic Mike and to the Objectification for which it stands, man thongs, tight butts, with body oil and handsome men for all.
Well with the release of the red band trailer we are finally getting answers to some of our questions. Primarily, “are the restraints necessary?” Obviously, they are. If anything there need to be more. (Still no answers on the rubber glove. I am, perhaps, more confused about its presence.)

Dear Steven Soderbergh,
So - we’ve already established our undying admiration and respect for you and your work on Magic Mike. But that doesn’t mean that we don’t have a few reservations.
For example, let’s consider “Magic Mike TV Spot #4.” It’s almost perfect. Almost. And then you get to the scene at 00:20. This perfectly encapsulates our initial reaction:
But once we sang and danced our frustrations out, much like Zac Efron in High School Musical 2, we decided that we should do something more constructive about our concerns - write to you about them.
So here we are.
We’re just looking to open a constructive conversation, so that as you start to consider Magic Mike 2 (it’s clearly a trilogy), you can keep some of our concerns in mind.
1. WHY DOES CODY HORN’S CHARACTER NOT WANT TO KNOW WHAT MAGIC MIKE DOES FOR TWENTIES (see above at 00:20)? It just makes no sense. Ever since we saw the first preview, we don’t think it would be an exaggeration to say that we’ve spent at least a few hours a day thinking about what it is that he does and wishing that he would show us. So imagine our surprise that when offered the opportunity to find out (and be shown, not just told), her character unequivocally just says no. This seems to be related to some of her deeper issues with who Magic Mike is. Why does she not accept him for who he is? Why does she want him to change? Why doesn’t she want to see his best and most successful skill - he’s clearly proud of it. If given the opportunity, we’re not sure that there exists a single human being who would actually say no. It just seems like this scene is removed from reality.
2. Is it really a good idea to encourage the custom furniture design? Does anyone really need/should anyone really have a glass table with steel bottles as the base?
3. Why is Kevin Nash in the movie? And more importantly why does it look like he’s folding his jacket neatly instead of just dropping it and dancing like the others? By the time he’s done handling his jacket; Joe Manganiello has already dropped to the ground, humped it and gotten back up; Matt Bomer has both swiveled his hips and asked us to come hither; and Channing Tatum, well…no words can fully encapsulate all that he (and his hips) do.
That’s all for now. More soon.
with best regards,

An open letter to Steven Soderbergh
Dear Steven Soderbergh,
We know that you’ve been called many things in your illustrious career: bold, innovative, genius, visionary…the list goes on. But we’ll be honest, we didn’t really get all the hype. I mean we enjoyed Oceans Eleven and Thirteen. We thought Traffic and Out of Sight were pretty good.
But now, thanks to Magic Mike, we stand corrected. We can barely come up with enough superlatives to describe you. And we haven’t even seen the movie yet.
So thank you. We cannot describe the utter joy we feel everytime we get a Google alert for “magic mike,” watch the trailer(s) (sometimes in freeze frame mode), look at pictures of the cast or even just hear the words “magic” or “Mike”. Not only have you created what appears to be the greatest movie of our generation, but you have found a way fill each and everyone of our days with happiness, horniness and handsomeness.
With undying gratitude,
Young Feminists for Magic Mike
PS Thank you for giving us a new found appreciation for the American flag. We have never felt more patriotic. More on that in the next letter.

This is the smartest decision Paramount has ever made. All films slated to come out right now should be halted and re-shot to include more scenes with Channing Tatum (including The Amazing Spider Man and To Rome With Love.) He’s the perfect addition to any film!

Quote of the Day
“Fact is, the law says that you cannot touch. But I see a lotta of lawbreakers up in this house tonight…”
This may also be the greatest movie quote of all time.
Matt Bomer performing Dr. Love | Magic Mike
This tumblr is a place for us to put our thoughts and feelings on what we can only expect will be the greatest movie of all time. Our emotions and questions about the film are legion. To begin with just this image: Why are his scrubs creased? Are those wool slacks dyed to look like scrubs? Did he purchase them or dye them himself? Whither the sweat bands on the orderlies? Are the restraints necessary? Why would Matthew Bomer need to be wearing just one rubber glove? Is the glove part of the costume or functional? And as always, we are eternally curious about what music is playing during the strip tease. These are just a few of the mysteries that we can only hope the film will solve for us.
