Pursuit Goes to the Movies

Ever notice that the difference between a Guy movie and a Chick Flick has to do with pursuit?In a chick flick the guy pursues, provides, and protects.  He quite often does this romantically; flowers, chocolates, love-songs, etc.  In a Guy movie the guy goes out and conquers the world and then returns and proudly waits for the girls to shower him with applause or swoon at his feet.Still other movies are blockbusters because they show a team effort between the sexes. Pursuit, provision and protection are all two way streets.  I think the Fellowship of the Ring series from a few years back was a good example of team effort.  Every character had a role and destiny to fulfill and there existed a good deal of traffic on the two way street of pursuit, provision and protection.
