I didn't think I'd like Keira's P&P, but I did. And you're right about Northanger Abbey!MJFredrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06881706931355203700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-50855484295804976002008-02-17T10:46:00.000-06:002008-02-17T10:46:00.000-06:00I actually LOVE Someone Like You, but no one else ...I actually LOVE Someone Like You, but no one else I know can see why. I mean, HUGH JACKMAN, come on! I can ignore Ashley Judd's bad acting for Hugh.<BR/><BR/>As for P&P, there is only one version, and it is the BBC one with Colin Firth and Jennifer Ehle. Silly Mary. ; D<BR/><BR/>The new Masterpiece Northanger Abbey is lovely, and I adore Ang Lee's Sense & Sensibility.Tracy Montoyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12578046503043060644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-86342764107763782922008-02-16T07:12:00.000-06:002008-02-16T07:12:00.000-06:00I like Ever After and Return to Me, but I've only ...I like Ever After and Return to Me, but I've only seen them once, so I guess they didn't stick. Same with Sense and Sensibility and French Kiss. I do like American President, but Hope Floats didn't end HEA enough for me. I love the music, though. I really didn't like Bridges or Breakfast at Tiffany's (I know, I should be run out of the country.)<BR/><BR/>I agree there aren't many good rom-coms. How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days was GREAT - till the ball scene. <BR/><BR/>I was going to add A Walk in the Clouds, especially that KISS, but he was married....and Chocolat didn't have enough romance (that is to say, scenes with Johnny Depp.) I own both of those, BTW. I never saw Room with a View, and I liked 4 Weddings when it came out, but again, more about the friendships than the romance. <BR/><BR/>I know I've seen Valley Girl, but I don't remember it. And I really did like The Boyfriend School, the movie more than the book.MJFredrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06881706931355203700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-22419996967144825912008-02-15T08:10:00.000-06:002008-02-15T08:10:00.000-06:00Okay, so Mary - most of these I haven't seen - wha...Okay, so Mary - most of these I haven't seen - what's wrong with me???<BR/><BR/>I'm going to add (and it's really bad of me)<BR/><BR/>The Boyfriend School (sometimes called Don't Tell Her It's Me)<BR/><BR/>and <BR/><BR/>Valley Girl - love it : )Jill Monroehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12917867670224368810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-45152144871355547112008-02-14T22:53:00.000-06:002008-02-14T22:53:00.000-06:00Speed!

My oldest is now allowed to see PG-13 movies, so it's easier to justify spending the money to see something mediocre. I liked it better than I expected, more for the humor with the secondary characters than anything else. There was no spark between the two leads, and no real change to justify them getting back together at the end.<BR/><BR/>But yes, despite overexposure in recent years (pun intended), Matthew was still very nice to look at. :)<BR/><BR/>Going to see Definitely, Maybe this weekend. Looks a lot better!Natalie J.

Other movies, Sense and Sensibility, American President, Hope Floats, Bridges of Madison County, Breakfast at Tiffany’s.<BR/>I have been extremely unimpressed with anything calling itself romantic comedy in recent years… you know there are TONS of fabulous books and authors out there -- how does some of that junk get made into movies? <BR/>Speaking of which -- my sister hated Fool’s Gold. She agreed that seeing Matthew shirtless for most of the film was probably worth the $9, but otherwise it sounds like it was cheesy, stupid plot, poorly done, etc. Very disappointing. I’m sure I’ll still see it -- maybe matinee…KATZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05724728384829762730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13241994.post-1345225753907085122008-02-14T07:05:00.000-06:002008-02-14T07:05:00.000-06:00*While You Were Sleeping*Ever After*Return To Me--...*While You Were Sleeping<BR/><BR/>*Ever After<BR/><BR/>*Return To Me<BR/><BR/><BR/>---Those are probably my favorite romantic movies ever...Marianne Arkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934613403368823760noreply@blogger.com
