So many great points and i agreed with every single one!!! The idea that just because something is supposed to “silly” and “feel-good” means that it doesn’t have to be well made is insane and it causes movies/romcoms that are like keys being jingled in front of a baby😭 The audience is not that easily amused PLEASE WRITE SOME COHERNT DIALOGUE THAT DOESN’T SOUND CRINGEY AND TROPEY!!!! STOP MAKING SHITTY ROMCOMS!!!!

I agree with your post. The 2000s rom coms did too repetitive towards the end of the decade. She was always working or want a job in fashion. She always lived in New York City and Los Angeles. The formal was tiring to audiences. Then we entered a post MeToo world and writes are confused how to write a romance through a 2020s lens.
