For some reason, I never watched Lifetime but just discovered it. I was like, 'Oh, it's all rom-coms!'
I, for one, personally like rom-coms, silly rom-coms, but at the same time, I also want to watch a documentary or an award-winning drama.
I'm perfectly happy to have the reputation as a comedian. I love comedies, I would love to be doing more comedies. But I also feel like I hit the limit on playing the girlfriend type in a lot of rom-coms that aren't actually rom-coms, but guy movies that happen to have girls in them.
I love rom-coms, and I was bummed that they sort of stopped making them around the time I was old enough to be in them. But at the same time, I so respected the fact that the genre kind of needed an update. But you know, even when rom-coms were at their hey-day, very few people did it at the level of Nancy Meyers.
I feel like a lot of people talk about in rom-coms, there's the female best friend. There's all those archetypes in rom-coms. But even among a movie about man-children hanging out, there is always the one who's often the fat one, often the one with the beard, who is like the man-childest of them all. He's the one that eventually meets the fat girl or the quirky girl of the girl group of friends and really hits it off.
I loved rom-coms growing up. So, of course I wanted to be in one and be the girl that I had watched up on the screen so many times when I was 13.
Good rom-coms have some reflection of the way things are, the sign of the times.
I like rom-coms. I think they're adorable and endearing.
I truly believe the reason why there is a demand for rom-coms is because humans, whether its conscious or subconscious, have a need to feel happy and to see love.
I'm a massive rom-com head! Like, every rom-com in the '90s and early 2000s, I've watched.
I guess people just like Netflix. And they like rom-coms, and I was fortunate enough to book two random ones that got sold to Netflix.
One of the things that 'Love, Simon' is doing that hasn't been done before is it's a gay teen rom-com with a mainstream wide release and the backing of a studio that previous gay rom-coms have not had. I'm really excited by that.
I do have a soft corner for rom-coms, but at the same time, I like drama, too.
I like so many different kinds of chick flicks. I like rom-coms, I like female friendship movies.
I definitely have that bug; I'd really like to do some auteur, existential pieces, darker films, something that's really reflective of life. But I also love the genre of rom-coms, and I don't see myself completely detaching from that.
I'm a sucker for quotes and cheesy rom-coms. I have quotes all around my house, and I'm always in the mood for a rom-com. Always.
Rom-coms are my jam.
