This is not as easy as I thought it would be!

My final list (below) has 6 on it, and trying to drop one is not simple.

ABOUT A BOY [2002]

10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU [1999]

NOTTING HILL [1999] 

THE PRINCESS BRIDE [1987]

FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL [1994]

GROUNDHOG DAY [1993]

I think my top 5 would have to be 

ABOUT A BOY [2002]

10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU [1999]

NOTTING HILL [1999] 

THE PRINCESS BRIDE [1987]

FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL [1994]

[Cleoriff]

A bit difficult for someone whose choice of films lean towards the psychological thriller genre.

However, I'll think about it and give it a go later @Mi-Amigo 😂

[Breanna]

Guys help! I've never seen even one of these movies.

Think I'll have to rate them by how popular they are in memes 😂

[gmarkj]

There is a running joke with me and a couple of friends as on of them has not seen a large number of films that seem to be ones that most people have seen.
While the rom-com is not a genre we normally watch, I would expect most people to have seen at least a couple from the above list @Breanna!

I would recommend my top 6 as somewhere to start and no doubt most people would do the same with their lists!

[Mi-Amigo]

Thank you @gmarkj for your votes

@Breanna @Cleoriff I look forward to your lists of your Top 5 Rom-Coms.

Here are my votes

No 1 Sleepless In Seattle

No 2 You`ve Got Mail

No 3 Groundhog Day

No 4 Four Weddings And A Funeral

No 5 Notting Hill

[sheepdog]

Why isn't Die Hard on the list? Its the ultimate rom-com where a guy fights his way against all odds for his wife and best of all, it happens over Christmas!  🤣 

Anyway, my top 5: 

1. The Princess Bride

2. There’s Something about Mary

3. The 40 year old virgin

4. My Big Fat Greek wedding

5. The Wedding Singer

[Cleoriff]

Here are my 5.

PRETTY WOMAN

SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE

WHEN HARRY MET SALLY

THE PRINCESS BRIDE

FOUR WEDDINGS AND A FUNERAL

[Comben]

@Breanna I can't believe you haven't seen any from this list. I agree with @gmarkj that even though Rom-Com's might not be for everyone they do have a time and place and most people have at least watched a 'couple'. 😉 That said I would like to see Bre's list based on how many memes it has! 😅

As for my top 5 @Mi-Amigo It would probably have to be:

5. ABOUT A BOY [2002]
4. NOTTING HILL [1999] 
3. THE HOLIDAY [2006]

2. PRETTY WOMAN [1990]

1. LOVE ACTUALLY [2003]

[pgn]

Ah ok... my top vote, number 1, @Mi-Amigo, as you wish 😂

1. THE PRINCESS BRIDE (1987)

2. GROUNDHOG DAY (1993)

3. SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE (2003)

4. GREGORY'S GIRL (1980)
