I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The ice cream scene from When She Was Bad.

I have big love for The Sure Thing, but I can't think of a specific scene that's good and romantic.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Heath Ledger holding back Julia Stiles' hair when she vomited was sweet in 10 Things I Hate About You.

Angel showing up at The Prom.

Oops--romantic, but NOT a comedy.

Oh and when Oz asks Willow out in Phases:

Oz: I'm gonna ask you to go out with me tomorrow night. And I'm kinda nervous about it, actually. It's interesting.

Willow: Oh. Well, if it helps at all, I'm gonna say yes.

Oz: Yeah, it helps. It-it creates a comfort zone. Do you wanna go out with me tomorrow night?

Willow: (cringes and slaps her hand to her forehead) Oh! I can't!

Oz: Well, see, I like that you're unpredictable.

Willow: Oh, it's just it's Buffy's birthday, and we're throwing her a surprise party.

Oz: It's okay.

Willow: But you could come. If you want to.

Oz: Well, I don't wanna crash.

Willow: No, it's fine! Well, you could be m... my date.

Oz: All right. I'm in.

Willow smiles back, and after a moment indicates she has to go. Oz nods to give her leave. She starts away, smiling widely.

Willow: (to herself) I said 'date'.

Oz and Willow's sweetness just kills me.

There's also great rom com patter in Sports Night bet. Dana/Casey, Dan/Teri Polo character, Jeremy/Natalie, and many would say, Dan & Casey.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Love, Actually is fairly full of romantic scenes. Actually, ok, this was boyfriend's suggestion, and I think he's right but there's a lot of chasing after the girl in that movie.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is Love Actually the one with "All I Want For Christmas" in the soundtrack? Because I just heard about a wedding this past weekend where they played that. Bwuh?

Sports Night, ep Sword of Orion:

Rebecca: You like me right now, and you love sports, and I think when you see those two things in a room together at the same time, I'm going to look a little less like what you want.

Dan Rydell: I think you're wrong.

Rebecca: I have to go back to my office.

Dan Rydell: First of all, what makes you think I like you right now?

Rebecca: Well, you follow me everywhere I go and you ask me out all the time.

Dan Rydell: You're reading way too much into that.


Dana - Aug 03, 2006 5:04:25 pm PDT #500 of 10001
I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, my god, Dan's whole speech about Rebecca's Wall of Pain.
