Chick Flick Marathon!

Brian has been in Florida for the last five days, so it's been a big chick-flick fest at our place.

In the past five days I have watched 15 romantic comedies. FIFTEEN!!!

What are some of your all-time favorite romantic comedies?

My wish is for you to experience the goodwill, excitement and wide-eyed wonder that make Christmas the most special time, and take it into the New Year.

Be Happy! Be Blessed!

Teresa said...: Bridget Jones for me qualifies as horror movie (really! I know I'm alone in this but whenever I think about that movie I can't even remember Collin and Hugh in it), but you still can (SHOULD) invite me next time, and I'll bake the brownies while you're all at it ahahahahaha; December 22, 2011 8:57 AM

Kelly J. R. said...: "Sweet Home Alabama" is one of my favorites. I also love "New In Town" which is extremely funny to me because of all the Minnesota humor (which applies to Wisconsin as well!); December 22, 2011 9:51 AM
Chiara said...: Oh, wonderful! So, I love:
Notting Hill, You've got a mail,
Chocolat, No reservation and other Italian movies!
I wish you a Merry (and romantic) Christmas!; December 22, 2011 10:04 AM
Dancing Branflake said...: I love Notting Hill! That and Little Women and (gasp!) Maid in Manhattan.; December 22, 2011 10:08 AM
Nicole Egerer said...: Sounds like so much fun! I don't get enough chick flicks in so this has inspired me to once the new year has come :)

Some of my favorites are probably Bridget Jones and Return to Me. Return to Me is one of the sweetest movies ever. It gets me every time!

And I have to tell you, I've never seen the Notebook before but I saw the trailer while watching another movie this last weekend and I cried and cried... and it was just the trailer. Who knows what will happen when I see the whole thing! :)

Thanks for sharing and Merry Christmas to you and your hubby!

Kind Regards,

sal ♥ said...: GREETINGS from california. i believe i saw you and your husband at a mall in arcadia yesterday... and i wanted to tell you how much i enjoy reading your blog, but then i wasn't too sure if that would seem strange... anyway, happy new year :); January 1, 2012 5:08 PM
Asiye Ivedi said...: hmm actually I am not really into Romcoms... I do like Serendipity...ahm and Chocolate (does that count?) -- and that's where I throw the towel. I haven't really a clue about that genre- I have however watched entire seasons of series in couple of days last week..which amounts probably in around the same time spent in front of the tv-- sometimes its just nice to be a wee bit obsessive and indulge in it! Hope you enjoyed it!!

Mekkan said...: Greetings from Japan! Happy New Year! I wish I had enough time to watch those movies. Some I have seen before. I liked Pretty Woman and You've got mail. You can tell my generation. :D; January 4, 2012 9:08 PM
Mai said...: haha, that is awesome! romantic comedies are my favorite genre. when harry met sally has got to be my favorite!; January 4, 2012 9:37 PM
GLENDA CHILDERS said...: I like "While you were sleeping", and now we live just a few block from the apartment that Lucy (Sandra Bollock) lived in.

I bet, Dionne, that you were ready for some real romance by the time your husband returned.

Good for you, for not sitting around all lonely and mopey.

Fondly,

Rebecca said...: Steel Magnolias is my all time favorite chick flick, followed closely by A Lot Like Love!; January 6, 2012 11:31 AM
Sarah said...: I am a fan of all of the ones you posted, but some of my faves are Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement and Fireproof. Super awesome movies for any season, any time, and any weather... Whats great about these movies is my husband is all about the romantics 'cause he is the most romantic person I know (more so than ME)... He has been so awesome in wanting to watch my faves and of course I let him choose some boy movies to break up the cloudiness for a bit ;-]; January 17, 2012 11:55 AM
