Why Don T They Make Romantic Comedies Anymore

Nora Ephron films were the epitome of cute and some could argue that her films which clearly were inspired by similar Golden Age Hollywood films harkened back to those days.

Why don t they make romantic comedies anymore. That they just dont make romantic comedies anymore. This could be said for both genders of course. They werent taking their audience.

It makes quick money. The pop-syrupy romantic comedies that studios were churning out in the late 90s and early 2000s dont cut it anymore in our culture she says. While work is pretty much the only place where theyre likely to make a romantic connection another reason why Broadcast News couldnt be made today in.

With Hollywood studios drastically scaling back the amount of rom-coms they make the directors most directly linked to this genre havent been able to create new movies that could reassert the value of rom-coms. Its not just the studios actors dont want to be in them and directors dont want to direct them. Romantic comedies arent that great of a genre to begin with anyway.

Its impossible to watch two people. Why dont they make rom-coms anymore. Forget horror movies.

Hell I hardly watch romantic comedies its not my interest but the biggest problem people have with romantic comedies is that its caters to women in a very stereotypical way because what the film industry thinks women like does not equal what women actually like. Why dont they make rom-coms anymore. By Clarisse LoughreyOct 23 201812 mins to read.

We all know it and complain about it right before we watch Sweet Home Alabama for the 47th time. Romantic comedy has been pronounced dead and right now its almost impossible to get those kinds of movies made. It has a reputation for being where careers go to die.
