...I was going to call it The Rom-Com Thread or something with the word Thread in the title, but I think we have enough of that, don't you think?
Anyway, I just wanted to say that on a gut level, I firmly believe that the rom-com, or romantic comedy, is the most unevolved film genre ever. The realization dawned upon me when I realized when I sit down to watch 10-20 trailers in a single weeknight, I groan and roll my eyes at every single romantic comedy. The most recent one that induced this feeling was the trailer for The Ugly Truth, in which Katherine Heigl is no longer pedo-hot like she was in My Father the Hero and Gerard Butler is basically stealing Matthew McConnaughey's schtick from three years ago.
Please discuss your feelings, thoughts and ideas about this genre, cause right now I haven't come up with the appropriate spiel as to why I feel this is so.
