Every John Cusack film ever.

And crazy stupid love, a legitimately good movie on non romcom standards.

Well, ok, yeah...but especially Hi-Fidelity, Better Off Dead, and One Crazy Summer.

Hi fidelity is one of my favorite movies. Then the burger scene of better off dead is an instant classic

I echo About Time and Crazy Stupid Love

I'm not sure if the next two count as romantic comedies or not but my guilty pleasures are definitely: Definitely, Maybe and Serendipity.

I watched When Harry Met Sally the other day and really enjoyed it. It is always weird when you see a movie like that after you've seen all the other movies and tv shows that have borrowed from it liberally.

I was a little disappointed when I found out that the marriage vignettes were all written and the married couples were all actors.

Have to give credit to Nora Ephron.

Talking about " borrowing ", the most shameless thing I've ever seen in a movie was in this romantic comedy called Broken English, directed by Zoe Cassavetes. The ending scene is a direct lift (the last two lines are the exact same!) from Linklater's Before Sunset. I almost had a heart attack when I saw that. It's really a shame a genuinely talented man like John Cassavates gave birth to such talentless hacks like Zoe and Nick (John Q, The Notebook, although She's So Lovely was okay. But it's based on his father's screenplay).

I thought What Happens in Vegas (2008) - IMDb was alright. Not my genre though.

don't like chick flicks eh

We're on a hockey board after all eh.

Seriously though, there sure are a few gems in the romantic comedy genre. Nice mind candy on a lazy sunday with the girlfriend. But there's also a lot of garbage. Same stories, different faces. A lot of them are predictable, shallow, tedious. I didn't mean to derail this thread though.

Surprisingly watchable. One of those movies where the "side-friends" really carry the film. Lake Bell and Rob Corddry in particular are great.

Enjoyable movie, terrible final frame.

Don't forget in One Crazy Summer, ...aw heck, instead of describing it, I'll post it

Joe versus the volcano would have to be one of my favorites.
