Here&#39;s a list of the greatest chick flicks ever, ranked by fans and casual critics like you. The best girl movies are those which we&#39;ve all seen 100 times and can recite line by line, they&#39;re also among the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/what-movies-can-you-watch-over-and-over-again--v1">most rewatchable movies</a> of all time. While the &quot;chick flick&quot; genre can be hard to define, most good chick flicks share at least a few common characteristics. First and foremost, they appeal to women &ndash; especially younger women or teens, which means they feature <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/strong-female-characters/anncasano?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">strong female characters</a> in familial or romantic relationships. Be sure to vote for your favorite <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-movies-for-women/ranker-film?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">girls night movies</a>, and vote down any movies that you don&#39;t think qualify as a &quot;chick flick.&quot;

Any list of the best chick flick movies&nbsp;would have to include one of the most romantic films of all time, Titanic. The tragic love story of Jack and Rose is timeless. Other chick flick dramas that deserve spots on this list include Steel Magnolias, Beaches, and yes, Thelma &amp; Louise. And of course, The Notebook deserves a spot (or two, or five). One thing all of these chick flick dramas have in common: They are all serious tear jerkers. Can anyone get through The Notebook&#39;s final scene without crumpling into the fetal position in tears?

Not all of the greatest chick flicks are dramas, however. No, many of the best movies aimed at women are actually funny comedies -- especially classic romantic comedies, or &quot;rom coms.&quot; When Harry Met Sally... is a great example (and really, almost any and all other movies starring Meg Ryan qualify), and so is Clueless. And one of the best chick flick comedy movies ever, Bridesmaids&nbsp;proved, without question, that a movie about women could be rude, crude and socially unacceptable &ndash; but still hilarious and extremely popular among movie goers.

Again, be sure to vote for the top chick flicks you think are the best ever!

Many, even most of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/best-romantic-comedies-of-all-time/all-genre-movies-lists">best romantic comedies</a> cross over into the land of chick flicks.

Nickelodeon: Nick Is for Kids

Kids Entertainment

Nickelodeon cartoons are some of the best on cable and have made Nickelodeon the go-to source of basic cable children&#39;s entertainment. While Nickelodeon was known for its live action shows in the 80s and early 90s, it started to shift its programming focus over to cartoons. They even created their own cartoon company called, &quot;Nicktoons.&quot; So, whether you like the old Nickelodeon shows are you&#39;re into their newer hits, you&#39;ll find all <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-favorite-cartoons-of-all-time?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">the best cartoons</a> right here.

&quot;Nicktoons&quot; introduced the world to such famous Nickelodeon cartoons as Rugrats, Ahhhhh Real Monsters, Doug, and much more. It wasn&#39;t until <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-2000s-nickelodeon-cartoons/ranker-tv" target="_blank">2000</a> that Nickelodeon really started to pick up steam with their massive hit, Spongebob Squarepants. Spongebob was so popular it became synonymous with cartoons in general. In addition to Spongebob there are many of other memorable Nickelodeon cartoon characters from these Nick cartoons.

Since then Nickelodeon has made cartoon hits as well as some off-kilter toons like The Fairly Odd Parents, Invader Zim,&nbsp;and Ren and Stimpy. Nick is also the creator of some cutting edge programming like Avatar: The Last Airbender and its current follow up, Avatar: Legend of Korra.

Nickelodeon might not make the live action shows that some of us grew up loving anymore, but they certainly have made up for it by producing some of the best cartoons around. Vote for your favorite old and <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-current-nickelodeon-cartoons/ranker-tv?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">new Nickelodeon cartoons</a> here on this Nickelodeon shows list!

Looking at this list, it's amazing we were able to get through our childhood without having a nervous breakdown. Seriously! The amount of silly things you believed as a kid and the little lies that we had to tell ourselves just to get through those traumatic childhood days is insane. There were monsters everywhere, sharks in the swimming pool, and plenty to worry about as fair as cutting your hair and eating watermelon seeds. Now that we're mature, grown adults, we definitely don't believe any of these silly lies anymore. Riiiiight?&nbsp;When you were growing up, what silly things did you believe? Did you actually believe that the world was in black and white before color TV was invented? Did those horror movies that you were way too young to watch traumatize you so much that you were actually afraid of being sucked down the bathtub drain? What silly thing did you tell yourself in order to avoid the monsters that most definitely lived <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/worst-things-to-find-under-your-bed/elise?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">under your bed</a> or in the closet?From flat out ridiculous to straight up delusional, which of these silly things did you believe in the most when you were a young, innocent, naive child?

Few other educational videos had the&nbsp;impact of Schoolhouse Rock songs. Every Saturday since the 1970s, kids have gathered around their TV sets to enjoy cartoons while learning about everything from science and math&nbsp;to civics and history. If you&#39;re feeling nostalgic for your own days of weekend cartoon watching, enjoy this list of the best Schoolhouse Rock songs - all of them are listed here for your enjoyment.

&ldquo;It&rsquo;s great to learn, &lsquo;cause knowledge is power!&rdquo; The early introductions for Schoolhouse Rock&nbsp;established right off the bat that these clips were more than mere entertainment. The series itself ran from 1973 until 1985, and each season was comprised of funny episodes and short animated films set to catchy songs. This online list of Schoolhouse Rock&nbsp;videos includes every single one of these songs, from the clips that ran on TV to those that were produced direct-to-video.

For many, these Schoolhouse Rock songs were the way they began to understand the American government (&ldquo;I&rsquo;m Just a Bill&rdquo;). For others, these short films instilled a lifelong love of grammar and language (&ldquo;Conjunction Junction,&rdquo; &ldquo;Verb: That&rsquo;s What&rsquo;s Happening&rdquo;). And for kids struggling with math, &ldquo;My Hero Zero&rdquo; and &ldquo;Three is a Magic Number&rdquo; helped them feel just a little more confident in the classroom.

Now it gets tough: what is the best Schoolhouse Rock song ever? Watch the videos to refresh your memory, and then&nbsp;vote for all your favorites.

Skin care is important, and you deserve the best brands possible when choosing things like lotion, bronzer, anti-aging cream, and sunscreen. Not all skin care products are created equal. Some expensive products are worth the extra buck, because they actually provide the kind of amazing results they boast.

If you're looking for suggestions, you've come to the right place! Below, you'll find a ranking of the best skin care brands!&nbsp;These products stand above the rest by making you look like a million bucks without spending that much.&nbsp;Skin care can get a little complicated at times, as it takes some trial and error. Not to mention, one&nbsp;company can rarely meet all&nbsp;your skin care needs. Company A may sell absolutely killer lotion, but their foundation just doesn't cut it. Company B has anti-wrinkle cream you cannot live without, but their makeup remover leaves a lot to be desired. Nothing says you must stick with one or even a couple skin care companies for everything. Mix and match your sunblock, moisturizer, and wrinkle cream to find a combination perfect for you. And we are here to help!&nbsp;We've all made regretful skin care purchases, so browse this user ranked list of skin care brands to prevent that.

What are the best date night movies? That&#39;s a tricky question, because you&#39;ve got your first date movies and your second date movies...and so on. This list of top films for date night includes a wide variety of different kinds of films that will hopefully make for an excellent evening of snuggling and discussion. Many of these films are some of the <a href="/list/best-romantic-comedies-of-all-time/all-genre-movies-lists" target="_blank">best romantic comedies of all time</a>.

Why? Because not everybody likes Hollywood rom-coms. Sometimes you want to dig a little deeper. Good date night movie ideas can spur some interesting discussion and, in the case of horror movies, can bring you two much closer - literally.

One caveat with the date night movie choices: Please, unless you are absolutely certain your sweetie loves period movies, do not, repeat, do not make them suffer through long, sweepingly epic films like The English Patient.&nbsp;Yes, the movie is romantic but trust us, stick with the lighter fare. The same goes for other <a href="/crowdranked-list/all-epic-movies-or-list-of-epic-movies" target="_blank">great epic movies</a> like the Lord of the Rings&nbsp;trilogy. It&#39;s fine if your date is a huge fan, but if not? Bad idea. Also, beware the <a href="/crowdranked-list/the-biggest-tearjerkers-ever-made" target="_blank">tearjerker movies</a>.

The best science-fiction writers are among some of the most creative writers ever. Instead of only making up a story, they make up entire universes, time dimensions, alien technologies - it's really incredible. Truth be told, some are more successful than others - it is really easy to write bad scifi. But those who can actually pull the genre off are right here on this list of the top science-fiction authors. These are the best science-fiction authors of all time, ranked by readers and fans.

Disagree with a choice? Vote it down. The aforementioned (brilliant) writers are responsible for some of the best science-fiction novels and series of all time - but other sci-fi writers like Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451), Mary Shelley (Frankenstein), Robert Louis Stevenson (The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde), and Aldous Huxley (Brave New World) are excellent sci-fi writers as well. All of these authors, in my opinion, deserve a place of honor on this list.Hopefully, this list will grow and become totally comprehensive. Readers who are new to sci-fi can use it as a great guide to find new science fiction authors and books.

List of the greatest kid characters in film. These <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/childrens-movies-main-characters-who-should-be-grounded/tracey-graham" target="_blank">onscreen children</a> were the best movie personalities in the history of cinema. Here we have ranked those film characters that we would rather hide from our own children (for the most part) but watch onscreen any day of the week. Of course, if Harry Potter came over for a playdate, a child might want to hang out. 

Movie children are the ones that say what we are really thinking, or sometimes things that no adult would ever be weird enough to think let alone say out loud. Someone like Huck Finn comes to mind, as he ranks up here against (or perhaps with) Simba from &quot;The Lion King.&quot; both of the &quot;Spy Kids&quot; themselves had to be included, of course, as did tough girls like Hit-Girl and Veruca Salt. Speaking of Miss Salt, Roald Dahl brought us more of the great kid characters in movies thanks to Matilda Wormood and Charlie Buckett.
