Have you noticed the pattern of young men falling in love with someone and then there is a dramatic twist and somehow they end up together even though all along you knew they would be together in the end? That's because it's the unspoken code (if you will) of romantic comedies. When we started learning about romantic comedies in class, my classmate who sits next to me and I said, "this is a great excuse to go home and watch Netflix tonight!" But it's actually true. While going through the romantic comedies I've seen, I noticed the pattern. I mean of course a romance movie there are going to be two people that fall in love, but what I didn't notice was how there is always a twist. For instance in The Wedding Planner with Jennifer Lopez and Matthew McConaughey, in the beginning it's a young man who is getting married. Yet there is a twist, Jennifer Lopez isn't the bride. At first she is the wedding planner. Actually I guess there are two twists, the second one and more important one is that in the end, Jennifer Lopez ends up falling in love with Matthew McConaughey. Ha ha so funny I know...unless your the bride who just got dumped...that's another story. But why do we do this? We all know in the end they will somehow by the grace of God be together. Maybe because we are teenagers that have "nothing to do after school" (which is never ever the case ;D ) or you're adults who after a long day at work want to come home and instead of watching the news or something that will actually benefit you, you watch a stupid romantic comedy in which you don't have to think. Or maybe it's because we dream about having some crazy love story of our own because we all know that usually falling in love isn't that funny or twisted. Either way, romantic comedies are a great way to watch other love stories and laugh at the same time. So tonight when you get home, instead of playing a board game or working out or being healthy because we always do that, go home, watch a romantic comedy, and vegg out and laugh. Stay romantically friendly, my friends.
oh and Happy Easter!!
