I never saw Made of Honor but from hearing my friends describe it, the rival boyfriend sounded pretty badass and superior in every way.

Applewhite posted:*Is actually someone a normal woman would want to date* I don't...properly remember any romcoms. I know I watched a couple, but they have just gone from my mind. I kinda remember that Disney animated Beauty and the Beast from when I was a kid, which doesn't properly count but even then I always thought that the guy who was set up from the start to be "bad" was like this. I also remember bits and pieces from Love Actually, and I was thought it was creepy and utterly stank of incompetence that the British PM didn't send a quick note to MI5 to research the chick he had a crush on. If it was that easy to ambush the leader of a major nation, like she could have done...wow. Robo Reagan posted:*gets dumped for having the audacity to have close friendships with other women, is slapped in the face for taking a female business partner out to dinner to discuss an upcoming meeting* This, but also: *at a moment of extreme stress, and after being sleep deprived thanks to an incredibly involved work situation, punches the male protagonist in the face after he becomes extremely offensively vocal about his recent treatment of the girlfriend, which involved no aggression just a level of neglect justified by recent work commitments. Protagonist doesn't press charges, but boyfriend still hands himself in to police after calling his lawyer, and is extremely apologetic and tries to settle out of court. The movie presents this in context of it being a bribe, and the protagonist doesn't press charges because his lawyer says there's no hope in court but it's presented to the audience as an act of forgiveness. The chick leaves, the business deal comes through...* Robo Reagan posted:*decides to bang said business partner after girlfriend dumps him for creepy weirdo stalker, eventually marries business partner and lives happily ever after* *...lives happily ever after as a millionaire. And still goes to the gym unlike the protagonist who becomes extremely flabby the very minute the movie finishes.*

*i grip male lead strongly by his shoulder, turning him around forcibly with my toned and muscled arm. looks him in the eye, maintaining eye contact while smiling to reveal perfect white teeth. tells male lead if he ever gets close to female lead again, there will be consequences. my piercing blue eyes roll back in their sockets, sclera reddens as delicate blood vessels bulge and pop. perfectly maintained blonde hair shifts and rustles like a corn field in the wind as tiny scrabbling black carapaced feelers begin to crawl out of scalp. smile widens until the corners of my mouth splits and tears up to my ears, which are now screaming lamprey mouths. teeth squirm and pop against each other and they fall out, gums undulating like fleshy waves, the outlines of the creatures underneath bulge obscenely as they rise up through the vacant sockets showing themselves to be centipedes with human faces with expressions frozen in anguish and their mouths moving up and down silently, speaking secrets no one can hear. tongue spasms wildly and pulses like an exposed heart. tailored designer business suit i'm wearing bleeds black ichor and pale wriggling worms. i eat shits like you for breakfast, i say, but the voice doesn't come from my mouth, it's everywhere in space and time, resonating in every moment of his life, past and future. i am the galaxy, he is a mote of a hydrogen atom in one of my spiral arms.*

Zazi posted:what movies where the main character doesn't succeed in ruining an otherwise successful relationship? i'd recommend Drinking Buddies. it does a good job setting up the usual situation (stable but lagging relationship tempted by a fling with someone that looks good on paper) and ends up somewhere completely different and fairly realistic.

Wicker Man posted:CAAAASSSAAAAAANDRAAAAHHHH!!! No way, what we really need is a movie where the usual first half happens, but as the new guy starts to win over the gf, the bf gets interested in him also. Starts as a cautious interest of the new guy's affection toward the gf, they slowly become drinking buddies as the old guy is awash with weird feelings and half baked ideas to get the new guy to back off of the gf, then eventually one thing leads to another, they both find out they're bi, and old guy leaves the gf to be with new guy

I'm a really generous and financially stable guy, but since I ignored you for a few moments on account of my job or my interests that don't involve entirely around you and how much I adore you feel free to run off with the awkward but endearing dude who will act head over heels in love with you and go on romantic adventures all over the big city. You know, like we did when we first met. And how your previous boyfriend did when you first met. And those other 3 boyfriends before him.

Worst romantic comedy ever- 2007's "ps I love you" http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0431308/ Notable points: -Hilary swank marries an Irish guy she meets on vacation, he ends up driving a limo in New York. -they own a $4 million dollar loft apt in nyc but she treats him like crap and talks to her shoes -he dies, of cancer. The movie shows NONE of him dying and focuses entirely on what a sad princess she is -her boss gives her a paid YEAR off. A year. Paid. Off. -"let's fly to Ireland and be sluts!" Says phoebe from Friends "ok yes becasue I am a princess hehe!" says Hilary swank and, other woman -Hilary swank tracks down all her dead husbands childhood friends AND FUCKS THEM. SHE FUCKS ALL HER DEAD HUSBANDS CHILDHOOD FRIENDS. ALL OF THEM. THIS IS A THING THAT HAPPENS -she marries a guy who looks exactly like her dead husband from her dead husbands small gay town in Ireland (DID I MENTION IRELAND? IRISH! SHAMROCKS) and treats him like crap as he also drives and limo and she buys more shoes to talk to, the end

Which one is where the guy done the sins of playing a card game with her one night but protagonist is more fun because he hangs at party all the time even if he is in the 30s. It's a really old movie from the late 80s/early 90s.
