Amy, I liked "The Mexican" because of James Gandolfini. He is awesome and watchable in everything.

"10 Things I Hate About You" is a rom com that stays in my heart.

There's a popular movie I hate. I find it hard to appreciate Julia Stiles. Despite my love for Heath and JGL.

I think When Harry Met Sally might be my favourite rom com. I've just seen it so many times, it's branded in my brain. We had it on loop in my apartment for what felt like weeks.

But my weakness for Grosse Pointe Blank is legendary. Martin Blank is my Lloyd Dobler.

Oh, I loved Sliding Doors.

Yeah, I really loved the premise, and it was a fun movie.

also have a weird love for The Mexican, which is only sort of a romantic comedy, but it really worked for me.

Yeah, I remember liking it quite a bit too. It's more of a drama than a comedy, despite the marketing, but once you adjust your expectations to what movie it actually is, it's good.

"10 Things I Hate About You" is a rom com that stays in my heart.

I love this one, but I caught it a few weeks ago on a random channel and watching Heath Ledger made me so sad, I had to turn it off.

The "Can't Take My Eyes off of You" serenading scene is so freakin' awesome. Maaaaan, the boy was charismatic.

I HATE Taming of the Shrew but the movie deals well with the WTFness of the premise without making your modern feminist sensibilities explode in rage. Come to think of it, that "Shakespeare Re-imagined" series on BBC also did a nice job with that.

It didn't hurt that Rufus Sewell played the modern-day Petruchio, either.

without making your modern feminist sensibilities explode in rage

seriously.

Vonnie, you would have really liked the production that 'Suela and I saw last year for free in an Oakland park, by a very talented all-women cast. It was exceptional and made me see the play in a different light. 'cause, yeah, right there with you on the squick-o-meter of the source material.

Oh, eff Grand Canyon and pretty much all rom-coms. I was pretty meh on Sliding Doors (not a Gwyneth fan at all), but I agree with Hec on her hair being all kinds of adorable in it. I even took a picture of her to the salon to get the cut, but it didn't turn out half as cute at Gwyneth's. I need her stylist from that time to call me!

Movie that lots of people hate that I just love: Mulholland Drive. And not just cause it has hot women making out, though that certainly didn't hurt.

I didn't care for Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. Too gross and I felt like the clues they found/solved would/should have been way earlier. They weren't so out there IMO. I did not read the book.

My in-laws saw a production of Shrew where it was made clear that Kate and Petruchio (in the end) were playing the other characters in order to get the money, and that Kate didn't believe a word she was saying.
