What are some of your favorite Romance kinos
don't have any. i don't believe in true love.
la la land
French Kiss (meg ryan, kevin klein)
>>214703625Before Sunrise
Just two people walking around a city and talking but there's never a dull moment.
>>214703625An Affair to Remember
>>214703625I hate Romance films because I can never relate
>>214704466Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist is basically the same premise
>>214704511Except N&NIP is the millennial soi version
>>214704531i used to like it back when i still believed in love
>>214703625OP.Also In the Mood for Love, Past Lives, The Remains of the Day, and of course, Fifty Shade of Grey.
>>214704511>Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist>comparing that dogshit to a masterpiece like Before Sunrisecringe
>>214703634>don't have any. i don't believe in true love.
>>214704707believing woman actually have the capacity for love and loyalty is the most r*ddit take out there
>>214703625>watched this when I was 17-18. >Watched it every year since then randomly when it would come on tv.>Was always confused why the fuck it was a love story between a 20 year old and some old 50 year old>be 30 now>got into a relationship with a 19 year old>she led me on and fucked me over>I now understand why the film had an age gap and it feels more relatable now
>>214704729This. I think I legit had my last time ever thinking this Love shit was real. I met this insane bitch at work and we hit it off right away. 1 month in it was her birthday, and we weren't dating, but I got her a b-day present cause I liked her. She told me no one ever did that for her before. Fast forward like 6 months later she started acting weird and distancing herself from me, she told me she is seeing this other fag at work and I get we weren't dating but I told her how could she not know I liked her too. She said some retarded shit like "I guess I never noticed it" even tho she'd invite me to go to parties with her and even sleep in her car with her cause we were both drunk as fuck.Her new fag broke up with her for some reason and me and her haven't talked for months but my coworkers tell me she never even mentions me anymore and she is trying to get back with this other fag who dumped her. I don't get it
>>214704466>>214704511>>214704642I hate romance movies cause shit like this never happens in real life. If you try acting like these guys you just get fucked over or get called a weirdo
>>214704840>I hate romance movies cause shit like this never happens in real life.Even if that were true, so what? Do you hate Back to the Future because time travel doesn't happen in real life either?
>>214704840>If you try acting like these guys you just get fucked over or get called a weirdoBoth of those movies take place in 1995 and 2008 respectively. A lot has changed for the worse when it comes to relationships in the last 15 years
>>214704885yup. whores get it in their head as young as 12 now thanks to their iphones and instagram and tiktoks that relationships don't exist, and if they do they get programmed to want dudes who treat them like shit. They learn to lead guys on and never respond to texts etc etc
>>214704821my last gf and i had a total "romance movie" honeymoon phase. broke up with me via text. saw her recently on fb and she is now pregnant and single kek. dumb bitch.
>>214704946Genuinely hope this happens to this dumb bitch that led me on. I wish her nothing but the fucking worst in her life.
bitter moon green ray
>>214705003i'd be lying if i said i didn't miss those early days with her. one of the hotter women i've dated. but she was a typical modern female. i'm a very chill dude. i like to go to work, come home, hang out, and make with the love before bed. i ain't gonna waste energy trying to be "intense" all the time or whatever the fuck they crave. i own my own business and the bitch lived in an RV (her mom owned the RV park). i would have done anything for that bitch. except simp.
>>214704568Read "Steppenwolf" and quit crying for no reason, bitchtits.
>>214703625Groundhog DayPurple Rose of CairoMartyThe Family ManI Married a WitchThe Shop Around the CornerI have some honorable mentions I kinda want to include, but I don't really want to dilute my above list.
>>214704428Nice deep cut, anon. This is one of my sister's favorite movies so I finally watched it. Pretty good stuff, especially Kevin Kline. >>214704642>In the Mood for LoveBittersweet love stories with sad/tragic endings are a whole separate genre imo (pic).
Overboard if that counts
>>214706024read the cliffsnotes just now. sounds fuckin retarded. but ultimately reinforces what i said about women not understanding true love or loyalty
>>214706209>I Married a Witch>The Shop Around the CornerShop for sure is super romantic. Witch is very funny and Veronica Lake is incredibly sexy in it but I wouldn't call it romantic.
>>214706225French Kiss is honestly better than 90% of chick flick romance movies. totally unrealistic, yes. but it does feel good to see a happy ending.
>>214703625I like the ones where they dont get each other.
>>214706380ok dont tell anybody but i like Roman Holiday
>>214706366For I Married a Witch, it is a "romantic screwball comedy", so it is not a pure romance. Even if it is mostly a comedy, it becomes enough of an endearing romance near the end that I felt compelled to include it. I understand why not everyone would though.I was shocked by how much The Shop Around the Corner really holds up. It is just extremely well done imo.
>eternal sunshine>her>la la land>when harry met sally>leaving las vegas>sing street>begin again>love exposure>buffalo 66>punch drunk love>blue valentine>as good as it gets>broadcast news>ruby sparks>castaway on the moon>titanic>gone with the wind>3-iron>dinner in america>oasis
>>214706225Any other back kino?
>>214706343>I didn't read itWhy bother posting to tell me that? Get to it, numb nuts.
>>214703625punch drunk love is my literally me romance movie. dont watch it, it's mine
>>214706491>I was shocked by how much The Shop Around the Corner really holds up. It is just extremely well done imo.Absolutely it does, and especially compared to the remakes. As much as I like Judy Garland, In the Good Old Summertime is very mediocre (even with Buster Keaton's contributions). The less said about You've Got Mail the better.

>>214706814Allow me to introduce you to the joys and wonders of the 1930s bias cut evening gown (which that dress in Atonement is modeled after).
>>214703625This movie could totally work in the next 20 years, murrays character could be a millenial incel with porn induced ED and scarjo's character is his very apparent love interest. The dramatic irony is he has so throughly fried his mind and cock with porn he can no longer even desire what he has longed for all his life. Thus the gooner learns the meaning of true love in the very winter of his life.
>>214707009>the clockWow that's some list, anon. A few comments: >the clockGreat underrated movie, one of the few (two?) in which Judy Garland doesn't sing. >secretaryRomantic? I suppose if you've got the bondage kink. Great performances though, no question about that, especially from Maggie. >moonstruck"Snap out of it!" Kek. >mannequinDespite the cheesiness, I have a soft spot for that film. Very much a time capsule of the 80s. >badlands>carnal knowledge>belle du jour>of human bondageRomantic? Uh ... >the apartment>red dust>scaramouche>gilda>the petrified forestGreat movies that I'm surprised aren't mentioned here more often. >broken arrowThe one with Jimmy Stewart or Christian Slater?
>>214706410Perfect example of how a happy ending would have ruined the movie. If you haven't, go see it in a theater - the comedy (and drama) really comes across much differently on the big screen.
>>214706491>romantic screwball comedyOh, don't get me wrong - I really like that film (I have it on dvd). It's hard to get actual romance in screwball comedy, it really comes down to either the actors have natural chemistry together (Kate Hepburn and Cary Grant for example), or they're just really good actors (Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda in The Lady Eve, for example).
Just friendsDefinitely, maybe
>>214703625Vertigo, it's about illusions of misreading the other person, trying to control/change them to make up for problems in yourself (fear of death, aging)
>>214704729>>214704821>the personal experiences discussed in millennia of art and literature is actually NOT REAL because it didn't happen to ME!!!!!!We get it. You had shitty desperate relationships with bottom tier females, probably mentally ill hogs or some slut using you for a quick buck. That's a (You) problem.
I just want to say that the holiday is total Hollywood self suck garbage and I don't understand how anyone likes it
>>214707467>with bottom tier females, probably mentally ill hogsHow'd you know? Last bitch most likely had bpd, she'd be super into me one day then act like I murdered her cat and ignore me for days
>>214704729that's cope. the sad thing is that they do have the capacity for love, and that you're not getting it.you guys forget that men can be just as fucking annoying as women but in different ways. For every good guy getting used by a ho, there's a good girl getting abused by a bro
good romance films are rare. it's hard enough to find two co stars with chemistry.
>>214703625should you feel bad for emotionally cheating?>NOO YOU CANT MEET YOUR SOUL MATE AFTER YOURE MARRIED
>>214707165>the clockshe made three apparently: the clock, judgement at nuremberg and love finds andy hardy.>Romantic? Uh ...yeah i was just going off my films from letterboxd. of the 663 romance movies i've logged, those 92 in the list are the ones i can at least somewhat remember being good. admittedly LB is often wrong about the genres, as is my memory. >broken arrowjames stewart version, which is notable because he was 40 and the actress was 14.
>>214707719Oh, I missed the Andy Hardy one - I thought she sang in all those films, thanks for the correction.
>>214708004actually hang on, i was incorrect. there are musical numbers in that one, she did indeed sing. my dumb ass forgot. but the movie is still kino.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bpj6CMBmPeE
>>214703625Lost in Translation is more platonic than romantic.
>>214703625One of Tony Scott's best movies. Pretty much forgotten but its a gem.
>>214703625City Lights
Romance is gay shit for women
>>214704729Anon I'm so sorry you had a bad mom :(
>>214703625>10 things i hate about you. end poem scene kills me. the comedy aspects were great, i just love this fun movie. kat was really cool.>500 days of summerit was difficult to watch, i thought tom was doing so many things wrong and from experience it made me wince so much. it's such a real feeling though, being infatuated with someone who doesn't even really feel anything real for you. i liked this movie a lot. naruto was in it, someone told me, i didn't even notice her voice.>There's something about Maryone of my favorite comedy-romance movies. it hits kind of hard realizing you're not quite good enough for someone you think is amazing. it really illustrates the feeling of competing with so many people for the affection of someone, people who may be motivated by more vapid goals. in reality though it doesn't matter if someone has a better or worse reason for wanting someone, winner ends up being whatever the woman chooses. the scene where ben stiller acts all cool and leaves but then cuts to him crying like a baby is insanely real, they played it pretty humorously which was a great move. just such a nice movie.>moonrise kingdom;_;>grand budapest hotelone of my favorite movies ever. i think watching it with really cool people fucked up my impression of it, people who really enjoy movies that try to mean something. i will never forget the nerds i saw it with, long after they've had their last thought of me.>blast from the pastliterally me if i was a bit better of a person>ameliefrench wes anderson, i loved this movie so much.there are so many others. I can't often watch romance these days or even movies with romantic elements, they fuck me up worse than ever and i just end up thinking of women i care about in ways i shouldn't
>>214708972>>grand budapest hotel>one of my favorite movies ever. I'm not a huge fan of Wes Anderson's films but I love that one. Some very funny moments and some very unexpectedly emotional moments too.>>amelie>french wes anderson, i loved this movie so much.It got a limited re-release a year or two ago, and I went to see it 4 times in a week. The director did a Q&A at a screening some years ago I went to and it was great - made me appreciate the film even more.
>>214703625CTHD
>>214709158>went to see it 4 times in a week.that's awesome dude, i'm very jealous, i didn't see amelie until earlier this year. what don't you like about wes anderson? i kind of avoided those sorts of films for years, but going through life makes things hit so differently
>>214709215Yeah, there are a bunch of films I go see whenever they screen, and Amelie is one of them. Which says a lot about how much I like the film - that's a lot of subtitles to read. As for Wes' films, it's just personal taste I guess. All his films are well made, I just don't usually connect to his characters very well.
>>214703625Notting Hill
>>214704485What, you're not a blading boomer slaying teenage pussy?
>>214703625>What are some of your favorite Romance kinosThe African Queen.John Huston goes on location in Africa and makes an action/adventure romantic comedy with Humphrey Bogart as the drunkard captain of an old steam boat and Katherine Hepburn as the uptight puritanical schoolmarm he has to escort out of the jungle while dodging Germans during WWI. Through it all you have an unlikely romance between these two weirdos.Its great.
>>214709335Really funny, sweet film, which is part homage to Roman Holiday and also changes the reasons why that film couldn't have a happy ending. Also I really recommend watching the deleted scenes, especially the one with Hugh helping Julia practice her lines for her new movie. Must have been cut for time but it's really funny.
I'm not a huge Romance fan but my top 5:It Happened One NightEternal Sunshine of a Spotless MindLost in TranslationAmelieTo Have and Have Not
>>214703625
>>214704821You're probably too easy and agreeable, that other fag tells her no and reminds her that she is a whore. Have you tried not being a pussy?
>>214703625Love, actuallyBecause it has romance that works, unrequieted love, star-crossed lovers, platonic love, and humor. something for everyone.
>>214709505>It Happened One NightGreat choice, anon. Endlessly rewatchable.
>>214705049>green rayking
>>214709513I almost included that one in my list, lol.
YEAH, YOU AND ME, WE CAN RIDE ON A STARIF YOU STAY WITH ME, GIRL
>>214703625None. They're too painful, and remind me of what I've lost.
>>214709771almost listed this one in my post. man it was surprisingly kino. random ass ricky gervais appearance
>>214704840No you just need to be moderately attractive and genuinet. knower
watching this now, it reminds me so much of the household i grew up in. it's insane.
>>214706889I watched it cinemas with the girl I was dating (on her recommendation too) only for her to get with another guy without telling me a few months later.
Wristcutters with all the quirky energy coming from a cult classic requires.
>>214709513That tap dancing to king crimson is absolute cinema.
>>214709335This is one of those classic movies that were big on the monoculture tv promotions but I never saw. Just like youve got mail or when Harry met Sally.
>>214704466>Ameriburger wish fulfilment, the movieCouldn't be any more obvious>that part where he charitably throws money at a literal "europoor"lmao
>>214703625western romance movies are all fucking garbage, the only ones i've enjoyed are foreign
>>214708313It's the mob boss from the last action hero.
>>214709872she was a silly ho
>>214710304tony vivaldi, now that was a movie
>>214707165They played mannequin and love potion n9 all the time on network tv. I never cared for splash since it seemed like an exact ripoff of mannequin. Victoria Beckham did a funny skit about mannequin awhile back and brought it all back.
>>214703625I would never admit this in person. But I really enjoyed Don Juan DeMarco.
>>214710328Uncle Benny from the corruptor is my favorite mob boss in film. Great scene with him and Ryu from street fighter.
>>214704821>She told me no one ever did that for her before.no matter how little experience you had, that should've warned you off.. just try again, stop acting like you yielded some dark truth from this stupid anecdote
>>214710329Where was the VB skit? It would be fun to watch.
>>214704821>insane bitchNever stick your dick in crazy.
Dano IRL
>>214706225>>214707019Despite the shoulder straps being too large to be period accurate, this image from the trailer will probably get me to watch the new/final Downton Abbey movie just because Michelle Dockery is a total fox and even the less flattering gown styles in the tv series show off her banging body, especially that nice big booty.
>>214709864i didn't like it too much but it had some nice scenes.
>>214710899Always watching
>nobody posted Frankie and Johnny Do you hate movies or something?
>>214709335I like Notting Hill a lot, it's sweet and not as schmaltzy as Four Weddings. Also this is surprisingly fun.
>>214712543Forgot image.
>>214704466For me, it's Before Sunset
