I'm 25, straight, married, and a stud if I do say so myself :) Anyway, I hate chick-flicks but I don't mind romantic comedies -- yes, there is a difference.

Since I literally can't get enough of Music & Lyrics, I found it very enjoyable (and I love Drew's red dress :), what's everybody's 10 favorite romantic comedies?

Mine, in no order:
1. Music & Lyrics
2. Shallow Hal
3. The Princess Bride
4. Along Came Polly
5. 10 Things I Hate About You
6. Yes Man
7. 50 First Dates
8.

Okay, I guess I don't have 10.

Anybody?

There may be higher quality romantic comedies than some of these, but these are the ones I love to watch over and over, so they must be my favorites, but in no particular order. Also, Music & Lyrics is really great, but just doesn't quite make this list for me, close though.

When Harry Met Sally
Harold and Maud
The Graduate
What's Up Dock
About a boy
Bringing Up Baby
While You Were Sleeping
Say Anything
Four Weddings and a Funeral
Groundhog Day
Pretty Woman
Bridget Jones Diary

Sorry, I couldn't keep it down to 10, so top 12 for me.

But!.... If I had to choose a single movie to watch tonight it would be "What If" with Daniel Radcliffe and Zoe Kazan. I only watched it to while away an hour or two, but the film blew me away with its mix of farce, tenderness and mixed expectations.

I am not a moviegoer (haven't been for about 15 yrs) but thanks to the twin gods of Netflix and NowTv I have rewatched some oldies, and some like Music and Lyrics (not seen it advertised on UK tv) discovered for the first time.

All hail Netflix......
