10 Perfect Movie Girlfriends Who Would Suck In Real Life

6. Charlotte - Lost In Translation (2003)

Lost in Translation

"I'm going to whisper the location of a really good video game arcade."

The Movie: Two lonely people go on vacation to Japan and emphasise how "crazy" its culture is when you compare it to a different country where there are no Japanese people. The "Perfect" Girlfriend: Charlotte is played by Scarlett Johansson, which automatically gives her bonus points, though this article doesn't have a system for utilizing bonus points, so sorry, Scarlett. Anyway, despite being kind of moody and snarky, Charlotte is a super-smart Yale graduate who likes smoking cigarettes and staring poignantly out of windows. She lays around in her underwear all the time. She also has friends in Japan, and don't all middle-class white people want friends in Japan? Why She Would Suck In Real Life: Instead of talking to you about the problems in your relationship, Charlotte would likely go off with a film star and let him stroke her feet and stuff, whilst not talking to you about the problems in your relationship. Basically, then, she would be off doing God knows what whilst you were hard at work, letting the guy from Groundhog Day whisper things into her ear. Do you want the guy from Groundhog Day whispering things in your girlfriend's ear? Us, too.
