[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A movie can have both comedy and romance in it and not be a rom-com! It's a specific genre. Things like Princess Bride, Dirty Dancing, Say Anything, 500 Days of Summer, or the Birdcage are not rom-coms![/quote] I agree with you and was thinking that about a lot of movies mentioned here. But Say Anything? It’s my favorite rom com of all time. It’s also tagged as a romantic comedy (rom com) everywhere. It just happens to be an actual good one and not lame and formulaic. Conversely, princess bride is action/adventure; The Birdcage is comedy/thriller; and 500 Days of Summer is a rom-com drama. (Some places call say anything a rom-com drama too, so I guess it’s debatable, but you could also say a rom-com drama is still a rom-com.) [/quote] I'd agree with this. Rom Com done well is not Hallmark.[/quote]
