Notting Hill
That's the one rom-com we own. (Unless you count Shaun of the Dead or Fido as rom-coms.)
I wear the cheese. It does not wear me.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I caught the beginning of this at my parents' house (they Tivoed it because they love twisted stuff like zombie movies), and I *need* to see the rest of it. It's so gorgeous to look at, too, with all the oversaturated colors (except for the zombies, of course).

I highly recommend Bella Martha to anyone that likes the genre. It's the German film that No Reservations was based on. It reminded me a lot of Baby Boom.

Fido is adorable. And yes, the art direction for it is just fantastic.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I *love* the remake, but not its sequels. Feh.
Yeah. It's one of the few times I can ignore Julia Roberts. But Twelve? Just asinine. God, it's like capoeira is the kiss of death for movies.

Fido is great, and I love Love, Actually and Ocean's Eleven.

Because books.

I also love Baby Boom! Diane Keaton being cute and awkward is always a win for me.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Oh, oh, Strictly Ballroom!
I can't stand The American President. It's my Michael Douglas thing. I also liked Baby Boom a lot less after the time I was stuck in my ob/gyn's waiting room for two hours and it was looping on their TV.
