whoa I didn't even know the rollout had started
a lot of these I haven't seen or don't feel v strongly about, but I voted for Moonstruck & Muriel's Wedding :D
― SEEMS TO ME (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:03 (eleven years ago)
my fave scenes in Moonstruck were between John Mahoney and Olympia Dukakis
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:05 (eleven years ago)
yeah they were fantastic -- Mahoney had such a small role but so memorable!!
― SEEMS TO ME (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:27 (eleven years ago)
as 'romcoms' written by John Patrick Shanley go I prefer Five Corners, where John Turturro stalks Jodie Foster and throws his mama out the window.
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:30 (eleven years ago)
Five Corners is good, p odd movie
― Οὖτις, Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:40 (eleven years ago)
I haven't seen Moonstruck, but Mahoney is also the key to Say Anything
― rob, Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:49 (eleven years ago)
Moonstruck hits all the right notes for me, has a terrific cast...and I adore Cher.
― SEEMS TO ME (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 27 August 2014 21:58 (eleven years ago)
the best two parts of that movie:
"a bride without a head!" "a wolf without a foot!"
and:
"Bring me the big knife. I want to cut my throat." < which i love to quote

yeah I saw Enough Said recently and it was okay I guess but p unremarkable

I Know Where I'm Going![ is such a strange fairy tale. Glad to see it here.

idk if mordy meant moon river, there are darker possibilities

lol i just realized this could've possibly meant the deep blue something song. i meant "moon river."
― Mordy, Wednesday, 27 August 2014 23:01 (eleven years ago)
Yeah ppl, quote fucking Moonstruck (too cute by a half), let The Awful Truth go by in silence.
Enough Said should be about 500th.

don't worry Eric, Make Way for Tomorrow may yet show up here
Morbius: you're so well behaved over on the Ramones countdown, and so angry on the romantic-comedy countdown. Odd symmetry.
― clemenza, Thursday, 28 August 2014 00:58 (eleven years ago)
I voted for Dragonseed.

people on the Ramones poll seem to have heard the Ramones.

"the idea of people settling for films nowhere as warm and hilarious as the ones i enjoy...it just makes me want to berate them endlessly"

If we're conflating "romantic comedy" with "screwball comedy," then "warm" isn't at issue.
