As a devoted romance film watcher, even I have to admit that my viewing habits can be a little sinful. So here are my seven deadly sins in romance films.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
SLOTH: THE ONES I\u2019LL GET TO\u2026EVENTUALLY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n There are many iconic and lesser-known movies that I keep telling myself I\u2019ll get around to watching, and then, I just don\u2019t. These include Never Been Kissed<\/em> (I\u2019m just a little unsure about the premise of pretending to be a high schooler and ending up with the teacher\u2026), Ghost<\/em>, and Past Lives <\/em>(but I think I am finally going to watch this one soon).<\/p>\n\n\n\n GLUTTONY: THE ONES I CAN\u2019T STOP REWATCHING<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Part of the reason I still have such a long to-be-watched list is because I\u2019m a chronic rewatcher. If I sit down to watch a movie, it\u2019s probably Penelope<\/em> or Crazy, Stupid, Love<\/em>. I\u2019ve seen them more times than is justifiable and could quote several scenes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n PRIDE: THE ONES I\u2019M PROUD TO HAVE SEEN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This category is tricky. What does it mean to be proud to have seen a romance film? I\u2019m going to say Atonement<\/em>, The Princess Bride<\/em>, and Titanic<\/em> because I think they are really well-done films that I would recommend to anyone. And with Titanic<\/em>, it\u2019s not an easy feat to sit down and watch a movie for three hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n WRATH: THE ONES I ABSOLUTELY HATED<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Not every romance movie is lovable. As much as I love Katherine Heigl, I thought The Ugly Truth<\/em> was terrible and romanticized misogynistic nonsense. I never felt like it was funny; it just fell flat. I also wasn\u2019t a fan of The Materialists<\/em>. I really didn\u2019t care who Dakota Johnson\u2019s character ended up with because I didn\u2019t see the chemistry between either pairing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n LUST: THE ONES I WATCHED FOR THE AESTHETIC ALONE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n They say you should never judge a book by its cover… but I do that for movies quite a bit. 500 Days of Summer<\/em> is a masterpiece, and I did watch it just because of the tagline on the cover. I also was drawn to La La Land <\/em>because of the image of Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling dancing on the cover. Thankfully, it turns out to be a fantastic movie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n GREED: THE ONES WHERE I WATCHED THE WHOLE FRANCHISE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the part where I confess to having a huge Twilight<\/em> phase in middle school (Team Edward, of course). I have seen all the movies several times, and Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 <\/em>is my favorite. To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before<\/em> is another romance franchise that I have seen in its entirety, and in my opinion, those films are so cute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ENVY: THE WORLDS I WISHED I LIVED IN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For this one, I am going to say Enchanted<\/em> because how cool would it be to shift between a fairytale world and New York City?? Giselle is living the dream, seriously. <\/p>\n\n\n\n FINAL CONFESSION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If loving romance movies is wrong, I don’t want to be right. Even when they\u2019re predictable, messy, or completely unrealistic, they give us something rare: the chance to feel everything, all at once.
