  1. Love Actually and Sleepless in Seattle are my favorites

    And you got mail, princess bride, Harry and Sally, And team America, lol as that is a different kind of rom comFor starters.
  2. The Proposal is one of my fave romantic comedies, but it falls way back of When Harry Met Sally, which is my fave of all time.

    For me, Sandy turned into a good comedic actress. Kind of took over for Meg Ryan.
  3. Just wondering, do classical composers get their music used much in movies, including varations used by others...and only because I know classical composers better...

     

    in ABC order....

     

    Bach

    Beethoven

    Brahms 

    Mozart

    Schubert

    Stravinsky

    Verdi

    Wagner

  4. Here's what I've decided on

    Louie

    House of Cards

    Sherlock 

    Luther

    I'm guessing most will say Louie

     

    So did House of Cards deserve the 10 Emmys? And why, because of Spacey or other people/things?

     

    Also if you like Sherlock which I know is better - Have you ever seen CBS' Elementary with Johnny Lee Miller as an unknown Sherlock Holmes, in NYC?

  5. To start, I'll just randomly name some examples:

     

    January Jones

    Judy Geere

    Naomi Watts

     

     

    Judy Greer might be the best choice. Can knock it out of the park in comedies and dramas but barely gets to showcase this.

     

    Well JJ has done alot of TV which is the acting....

     

    as had Judy Greer

     

    and Naomi Watts is a good choice but I think from reading gossip she decided to work on her marriage to Liev Sch sp? and her 2/3 kids?

  6. B+ or 7/10 for now. I feel the same as Ryne1040

     

     

    Insidious is scarier in some parts but they are about even. I can't remember what I gave Insidious.  

     

    well it is getting very good RT scores - 83% positive - for both top critics and all critcs...

     

    so now RIPD is dead to me and I will see RED 2 and this today!

  7. Finally here is the officially discussion thread for ROM-COM.And here is the list on BOM: http://www.boxofficemojo.com/genres/chart/?id=romanticcomedy.htmWhat we do in this thread:1. Pick up the best Romantic Comedies you think2. which ones were underrated (overrated) and you would like to recommend.3. what rom-coms you want or are planning to see.4. what should have done better than what they did back in the days.5. or whatever you want to talk about.

    Good topic but belongs in favorites, especially since this could be done for 10/20 other types of film genre.

     

    A Few Of My Favorite Things

    Share and discuss your favorite movies, actors & actresses, directors, make-up artists, or even your favorite boom mic operators.

  8. Instead of "previews", I'm just going to start calling it "opening night". Makes a lot more sense to me.

     

    Sounds good...especially since now they are doing 7, 10, and 12 Midnight

     

    But what does that do to the weekend - do we now have a 3.5 days of an opening weekend???? As with 3 shows, this is much different than the old 1 Midnight show.

     

    And will there be Midnight shows on say the night before - or Wednesday night? GUESSING NO

  11. As expected Glee will go on....

     

    Glee" is going full steam ahead without Cory Monteith -- and TMZ has learned, the show's writers have called an emergency meeting today to figure out how to work him out of the story.

    Sources close to production tell us, “Glee is definitely not canceled. If you look at the dollars and cents of the show and that it was very much an ensemble with new kids being added last year when some graduated. It’s clear that the show wasn’t about one character."

  12. Not only is BAD BOYS 2 dog-shit, it doesn't have particularly great action scenes either. Give me THE ROCK or even THE ISLAND any day.

     

    Bad Boys 2 has more action in this 2 1.2 minute trailer than most other 2 hour movies.

     

    PS. I was disappointed by the Island as I was expecting greater things from that...and the Rock was a lot better movie....but these both had action
