So, theoretically we will be releasing and recording episodes again soon. But for now, I’d just like to say a very hearty #AbolishICE on behalf of our podcast where we believe in the Constitution and support immigrants and all our neighbors.

She was already in the excellent horror rom com “Little Monsters” which we covered at @everyromcom https://t.co/znmH51F6VI

Since it’s storm season in Wisconsin I have the urge to rewatch “Twister”, and while I’m at it I’ll share my podcast’s episode on “Twister” where we talk bts on the movie and also dole out tornado safety tips! https://t.co/Yybh2BLuZE

It cannot be underestimated how much of the appeal of “Heated Rivalry” is simply because it’s well-made romance that is constructed with the same care as any dramatic program, not just churned out like disposable “content.”

Four more favorite scenes in romantic films…

[Jennifer Howell @genxjenh]

@TheCinesthetic Impossible to choose just one. I have dozens. But these are all all-timers!

#HeatedRivalry is the best romantic new release I’ve seen in some time. It gets a lot of attention for being hot, which it is, but it’s also deeply emotional. Episode 5 made me cry beautiful tears. I can’t wait to see what’s next from all involved!

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@torturedfilm I cannot stand how impatient this movie was to change scenes, change songs. Nothing resonates because Netflix is scared of being too slow which might mean you’ll stop watching. But ironically by not allowing time for relationships to develop, that becomes boring.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@torturedfilm The 2000s are one of the worst eras for rom coms, though. The 80s-90s had great scripts, lots of feminism, and lingered in scenes. The 30s-40s had great screwball romances with strong women. The 2010s were experimental. This was just the pale knockoff version of like 27 Dresses.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@farrowlover Yeah, I read the book and even with that scaffolding the romance just seemed to come out of nowhere; it wasn’t supported by the script.

[ana @shivlestat]

i’m gonna need them to start including emily henry in the screenplay writing process if they’re gonna adapt the rest of her books

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@shivlestat It was badly written. I think good writers could have made a good feature but instead four people were probably asked to tweak this for some algorithm, thereby draining it of all its sauce.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

I really needed #PeopleWeMeetOnVacation to be good amidst all this fascism. But sadly it seems to have been adapted via algorithm for people with no attention spans. Hey @netflix the audience for this can *read.* Maybe let scenes breathe so half the movie doesn’t feel like an ad.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@GetMeAnotherPod @ChrisIannacone @PiecingPod Awww yeah! Some of my favorite podcasters all in one place!

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@HorrorLovesBeth How many giallo movies and Italian horror movies have you seen? Seven Notes in Black, The Antichrist, All the Colors of the Dark, The Strange Vice of Mrs. Wardh, etc.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@emmasaurustex Mad Men, The Wire, Penny Dreadful

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@Variety He can speak for himself. If Josh O’Connor is in a movie, I’m watching it.

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@blue_rookery @genxjenh @mikemovies With all due respect, I think I’m pretty good on sociology too. And not all romantic comedies depict hetero romances anyway!

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@DWLundberg @Criterion My Ozu “Floating Weeds” disc would make the cut for sure! I like Ozu’s other stuff too, but that movie has a special place!

[EveryRomCom @EveryRomComPod]

@riversersh Let’s just do an eventual White Lotus crossover where their actual characters from Challengers end up at the resort 10 years later or something.
