I can suspend disbelief when it comes to unicorns or space aliens, but the notion that conventionally attractive people with well-paying jobs can't get laid is too much

>_>

My wife and I take turns punishing each other trading blows with old sci-fi and rom-coms. I think I am winning in terms of comparative pain inflicted on the other.

smh, TC doesn't like to laugh and cry, and cheer at triumphant moments, all from just one movie.

I can't do rom-coms. I hate the trope where characters have a misunderstanding and don't talk about it, and that's like the bread and butter of the genre.

This x1000. Screenwriters just dont seem to understand how real people communicate.

They're easy to watch, but definitely not my favorite movie genre. When it comes to fanfiction genres though...

If there were more (or, any basically) well written m/m romcoms, it'd probably be one of my favorite genres.

I disagree. I love rom coms. Musicals are cringe for me though.

I can kind of agree with you there lol, this is honestly what makes me rank Attack of the Clones as my least favorite Star Wars movie (of the main Skywalker Saga, at least). Theres a lot to like in it, but the Anakin / Padm stuff was so poorly handled I just cant lol.
