Yes, fellow ENTP... it's true... why shut ourselves off to an entire genre?

Hmmmmm.... I've not watched many Brit rom-coms... any suggestions?

I'm surprised you haven't found any Hollywood ones to your liking... there are so many good ones... my favorite American rom-com has to be "You've Got Mail"...

Okay, here's my subjective (gimme a break, I'm an ENFP) viewpoint:

If romantic comedies are lame, ewwwwwwwwwwwwww!

IF they are actually funny - and there are very few of them - YAY!!!

Here's my opinion: Comedies of any sort - particularly romantic comedies - either really, really, really ROCK or they really, really, really BLOW. There's really nothing in between.

Some Voices.

But you'll never get to see it.

One of my favourite films.

like Hugh Grant/Colin Firth-style? I really liked Colin Firth in this 1989 movie I saw called Apartment Zero but I think all the romantic comedies I've seen him in were terrible. Hugh Grant just sucks.

Let's see.....I liked Princess Bride and Groundhog Day when I saw them as a kid, of course. As Good as it Gets, Annie Hall and When Harry Met Sally were good. Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Human Nature and Before Sunrise are great. Sleepless in Seattle has the great "where's the cat?" line of dialogue.

But I can't stand most of the romantic comedies that are generally considered to be the best. Bridget Jones, Shakespeare in Love (HORRIBLE), Serendipity, Moulin Rouge, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral, Legally Blonde, Pretty Woman, etc. = yuck

I really enjoyed Notting Hill.

Sleepless in Seattle is kinda cute. . .

I never considered these romantic comedies... the former certainly isn't a comedy in the least... it's more a drama/love story/experimental and the latter's an outright musical...

"As Good As It Gets" was great....
