I've Lost That Loving Feeling

Maybe I am not normal, but I truly hate those Hallmark romance movies. Hasn't anyone noticed that so many of them are basically the same? Man or woman with problems or feelings of rejection due to a bad relationship, both end up in a scenic town, they fall for each other but things happen to put their relationship at risk. Then there is often a scene of softly falling snowflakes or maybe a bench by a river or stream, they declare their undying love for each other, forever and forever. Very predictable. They are, as you say, silly and trivial. Real life isn't like that, no matter what the circumstances. I love romance. Real romance, with real issues that we can relate to, in a real setting. Maybe a messy kitchen or in a car that doesn't run, or at a little kid's ballgame, or something normal. Hallmark is all fantasy, but many people don't realize that.

We watched the Hallmark channel every evening, for about two year. Now, it seems like all those romance stories are very similar, the outcome is a ditto copy of the last one.

I still like those silly romance movies. I can picture myself as the kindly old Grandma baking cookies I like British mysteries a lot. They have my kind of humour.

Hallmark and Lifetime movies are all pretty much alike. They don't compare to a romcom like "You've Got Mail". The quality of their movies is just not the same. I do change what I like to watch from time to time.

I happen to love watching rom-coms that are funny. But those sappy ones I skip unless the reviews rate them high. Horror movies are cool too, but am not a fan of the gory ones.

Yes, as I get older, I don't enjoy romance-type movie that much. But I don't mind watching Somewhere in Time, The Ghost again.

I can't stand those "mushy" movies.

I enjoy Hallmark movies mostly at Christmas time even though they are all predictable. I've gotten more into mystery/thriller and I've become a "reality" tv junkie (Survivor, Big Brother, Amazing Race, 90 Day Fiancé)

I watched a lot of the Hallmark Christmas romance movies at Christmastime . Most were kind of silly but the two l really liked were : " A Winter getaway" and " The Christmas Catch".

Me too romance has no appeal to me anymore as far as movies are concerned. I would rather prefer watching action-packed movies, adventure, scifi.
