I got in trouble when I worked in a video store and reccomened "Deuce Bigalow Male Gigalo" to a 40-something female customer looking for a "good, romantic comedy." The manager glared at me...and pretty much burst out.."don't listen to him, he's a little off.."
Thing is, I was being honest. Its a suprisingly sweet movie underneath all the hijinks.
Along the same lines, the two Adam Sandler/Drew Berrymore romantic comedies "The Wedding Singer" and '50 First Dates' are great romantic comedies!! You actually sorta care if these two goofs end up together....
Titanic is a big one. its hip to not like it, but i don't care...it really works, both as a romance and an adventure. And a just plain good movie.
Oh...and you can't forget the upside down kiss in the first Spider-Man!!!
