i suggested a tournament of this after the action one, but not many takers.


In no order:

Crazy Stupid Love
Philadelphia Story
You've got Mail
How to Lose a guy in 10 days
Love Actually
Roman Holiday

I'm going to throw in About Time, even though it's a bit more of a father/son story sandwiched in a romcom.

Yeah, but both of those choices also happen to be very good movies.

I’m on board! Set up a tournament or use this thread to get more movie suggestions.

She’s all that, the vow, and Mamma Mia are three more candidates. I can get down to some ABBA.

Are you really asking if a comedy named Bridesmaids is a rom com? It's pretty much right there in the name.

Bridesmaids is a rom com in the same way that Die Hard is a Christmas movie

The main plot doesn’t involve romance. it involves friendship. the love interest is a subplot.

Bridesmaids is a comedy.
