Who actually enjoys romanitc commedies?

Who actually enjoys these movies other than 12 year old girls? I've never seen a good romantic commedy in my life. They aren't funny, they have poor writing/acting, the plots are awful, etc. I can only see them appealing to prepubescent girls, even adult females who enjoy these would have to be severely unintelligent and immature.

I hate them with a passion and will not watch them even if they are the only thing on tv.

I like them if they're good (ie, Knocked Up).

Don't like them.

Yeah, I'm not a fan of them.

I saw a bit of "Double Wedding" on Lifetime and I almost went suicide.

If they are good, yeah.

i don't particularly enjoy them..

I hate them. I've probably seen a decent one before...I'm not too sure though.

A few of them are very enjoyable..Won't go further than that.

Some of them are good. Not stuff like Fool's Gold and When in Rome and that crap, but Garden State was a pretty decent (if completely by the books indie) movie, (500) Days of Summer was good, Whip It had some rom-com elements and I quite liked it. Romancing the Stone (although more of an adventure movie) is a great movie.

And, if bromance counts as romance, then I Love You, Man proves that romantic comedies can be awesome. That movie was a mansterpiece of bromantic comedy.

[QUOTE="funsohng"]Oh yes, romantic comedies are one of my favourite genres. I watched Devil Wears Prada about 7 times, and it never gets old. Same goes for Love Actually and any of Audrey Hepburn movies, she's the best actress in the history of mankind!super_mario_128

Some are good, but most aren't :(

Depends on the movie, (500) Days of Summer is a romantic comedy and a fantastic film.SaintLeonidas

Excellent Movie. Oh my Zooey. :oops:

I do! lol I don't know if that makes me less of a man or not. :P

I like romantic movies but I don't generally like romantic comedies, at least not the recent ones. But I disagree, enjoying a certain kind of movie (or music, or anything else for that matter) generally cannot determine the intelligence of a person, and I don't understand where maturity comes into play. I'd think a person who was entertained more by a film that contained nothing but mindless killing would be less intelligent and mature than one who enjoys a movie with a storyline, well developed characters and depth.XilePrincess

The whole nature of the original post sounds about as mature as one of those "Boo hoo I hate Twilight" threads that we get around here. I mean really...

even adult females who enjoy these would have to be severely unintelligent and immature.

that alone speaks volumes about the maturity of the OP. :roll:

My mother switched it over, she does that whenever she is near the TV.

The only good romantic comedy is High Fidelity. And even then 'romantic comedy' is a bit of a stretch.DJ_Lae

oh it's definitely a romantic comedy, a damn brilliant one at that.

no, but they have more to them (most of the time) than just sitting for 2 hours and watching people die. those kind of movies are below even the crappiest romantic comedies in intelligence and maturity, is what I was implying. and a good number of people who have the "eww romantic comedies" mindset are the people who love those kinds of movies.
