1 you've got mail, I prefer to see relationships over like 50 hours of TV.

89. I actually liked about 40, which is surprisingly high.

I have to question some of those options though. Breakfast at Tiffany's? Secretary? Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Neither funny nor romantic. Punch-Drunk Love and True Romance? Romantic, okay sort of, but definitely not comedies.
The Princess Bride, Amelie, Safety Not Guaranteed, Moonrise Kingdom, Ruby Sparks, and Lars & The Real Girl also are not titles that I would've associated with rom-com, or really any specific genre.
Cinephile heresy alert: I hated High Fidelity.

I have watched 66 many of which I liked more than I expected. I have watched far more modern romantic comedies since I've had a girlfriend. I used to watch many of the classic ones before that. I agree with Chaos though that these aren't all romantic comedies although I think most arguably qualify as possible "chick flicks".

You have watched 22 out of 200 on this list!

You like the occasional romantic comedy, especially if it stars one of your favorite actors. You don't really seek rom-coms out, but you've still seen your fair share, and you might even have a favorite you've been known to watch whenever it pops up on TV.


I will say that Safety Not Guaranteed was one of the best movies I've seen in a while!
