Hi, Yes HELLOOOO

🥰 Happy Valentine's Day!!!! 🥰

And if it's not your thing - remember that tomorrow means half price candy! 🤩

It's that time again where you let me know what you think should be next!! This will be the last lovey dovey romance Monday of the Month!  Some have enjoyed it and other not so much 😂

Understandable though - romcoms aren't everyone's cup of tea. 

I'll let you know what I have in mind for March - next week, but until then
WHAT AM I WATCHING NEXT??

Please Pretty in Pink.

I still say "Mannequin"...💜

Danika Silva

I'd recommend Me, Myself and Irene 😆🤣😂😹

Point of Order: Please add SIXTEEN CANDLES. More laughs, more love, less Blane. I love me some Ducky, but ...

Voted for Something About Mary. It's just too funny.

Pretty in Pink for some 80's cheese.

I can't wait to see Ashleigh react to the "pipe cleaner" scene....

We need a good R-rated romcom to finish on a high note. Vote for Mary!

While Pretty In Pink has some great 1980s fashions and hairstyles, TSAM does a good hairstyle as well.

^^ Indeed! Personally, I didn't really like pretty in pink, always preferred sixteen candles.

Maybe you could have a Tom Hanks month. There are so many good ones i keep thinking of, like Big, The Burbs, The Money Pit, A League of Their Own, Apollo 13, Splash, Turner &amp; Hooch (bring tissues).... so many movies i loved watching as a youngster.

"Moonstruck." It's rare among romcoms in that it is not sappy and is written with an adult, rather than an adolescent, sensibility. Also, unlike others that have been on your list, Moonstruck was nominated for six Academy Awards, winning three: Best Actress, (Cher), Best Supporting Actress (Olympia Dukakis), and Best Original Screenplay (John Patrick Shanley, an Oscar, Tony, and Pulitzer winning writer). Moonstruck is a proper classic, not just a movie people remember fondly from their youth.

I hope you eventually watch all 3.

Not to mention, his absolute best: Forrest Gump (1994) Saving Private Ryan (1998) The Green Mile (1999)

Well, dang! I only remember I felt happy for Cher bc when an aud saw her name in the titles of her 1st movie, they laughed. So this was like vindication. I also remember Nic Cage’s unique line delivery. But after your praise-worthy write-up, I’m curious about checking it out again myself.

Be Kind

OMG! I’m ready for some epic films. Along w/yours: The Godfather 1 &amp; 2 (1972, ‘74) Apocalypse Now (1979) Braveheart (1995) Saving Private Ryan (1998) Troy (2004)

I’m an older GenX who has watched an average number of movies, but I’d be just like you with Only the Lonely. My memory can’t conjure up actors or a plot or a poster. I just get The Motels in my head.

Mark Finley

Only the lonely isn't well known enough to ever win a vote like this, which is a shame, because it's a great movie. I Don't think the critics could handle John Candy as a romantic lead in a romcom.

Michael Buhl

It's not as famous as a lot of the other movies that are suggested to you, but I'm still pushing for The In-Laws (the 1979 original, not the 2003 remake). It's not a romance, but it does end with a wedding.

Hilariously funny movie. Peter Falk gives a great performance here, as does Alan Arkin. "Serpentine! I said run serpentine."

Drat! I had a hard time with the last vote until Ghost was added, because I don’t like ANY of these other three. Are these the 3 that are going to be watched regardless, we’re just picking the order? I always watch your reactions with my parents who are 72 and 82. We love you so they tolerate the language, horror scenes, and such. But There’s Something About Mary is so crude, I think I’d be embarrassed even watching your reaction while sitting next to them. I still say Overboard. And when we’re out of February, I’m going to keep saying The Karate Kid.

Isn't that taking Parental Guidance suggested a little too far?😁 Sorry. Couldn't help it.

Be Kind

I second!

Eric Janssen

Also because we were DROWNING in mass John Hughes-produced John Candy comedies by the time Uncle Buck and The Great Outdoors came out, this one got lost in the shuffle, and comparing itself to the classic Ernest Borgnine "Marty" didn't help.

Arki Kali

I kept hoping someone would do Kate &amp; Leopold, but alas.

Shawshank Redemption!

T.J. Gengler

How about a romance that's a whole lot less lovey-dovey and not even a bit Rom-comy? "What Dreams May Come" is just the thing.

Oh man thats a doozer! I loved it though

Birdie Num Num

The Fly. Great love story, not kidding. Wish you had more than just 4 spots on the member picks, would have liked to been in that tier.

Anonymous

with Ashleigh humor, you all know she needs to watch something about Mary!

Oouga

Suggesting "Dirty Dancing" instead of those listed above, lol.

Anonymous

I would say "Dirty Dancing" or "Overboard" over the ones listed above.

Eric Janssen

1) Patrick Swayze, 2) Romance, 3) Millennial 80's Icon...Yep, I'd say Dirty Dancing's a given.

Eric Frazee

Shawshank and dirty dancing yes. Overboard is not good 👎

Elliot Nesterman

Lina Wertmuller's beautiful romance "Swept Away"(1974) is wonderful. While filmed in Italian the cast is all multilingual, and Wertmuller had the actors do their own foreign language dubbing, so the English dubbed version is excellent. FYI, the full title of the film is "Swept Away by an Unusual Destiny in the Blue Sea of August." Don't bother with the Madonna remake; that one is awful.

Shawshank is amazing but not a romance movie. Dirty Dancing is kind of a meme movie today but it's good not great. Overboard was also good not great. I would like to see her watch The Fisher King (my favorite movie) but I think she may enjoy more classic romantic movies like Splash, Sleepless in Seattle, Moonstruck and Roxanne. Another two movies not quite in this same mold that I would personally like her to see would be The Man with Two Brains and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind :)

Elliot Nesterman

I've been plumping for Moonstruck for months now. Roxanne is fun, but I'd have her go back to Jose Ferrer's great performance in Cyrano de Bergerac. He won Best Actor for reprising his Tony winning role. And you can't beat Rostand's script.
