Has anybody heard about that new romantic comedy coming out? Bubble boy. It looks kinda similar to 'Something about Mary' but with a more bizarre twist to it. Mini me from Austin Powers, Beetlejuice form Howard Stern, and Fabio is in it! Yeah...pretty interesting- what do u think??

Once I realized it was him inside all that plastic & hair gel I started getting amped to see it.
It'll be interesting to see what John Ottman does with a goofy romantic comedy, as all he's famous for is dark, intense scores.
Should be fun either way.posted 08-14-2001 06:33 PM PT (US)

The film looks far from good, but if the main title demo at John Ottman's site ( http://ottman.filmmusic.com ) is anything to go by, I'll get the score album regardless.

Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing should qualify as a romantic comedy, and the Kenneth Branagh version is one of my top favourite films (and Doyle's score one of my top favourite scores).NP: Classic Film Music of Dimitri Tiomkin

Sorry, Judy. Not into romantic comedies. I guess its my background in military and all the other things I have been interested in all of my life. I do like some films on true friendship though. Welcome to the board. Best, John.

I'm in love with Meg Ryan. She did splendid job with giving her voice to Fox's ANASTASIA, but only now I've watched her top-three best screen performances - WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE, YOU'VE GOT MAIL - and I've found a new favorite.Jennifer Connelly - sorry, you're not top anymore

And yes, I was positively surprised of the musical supervision on SLEEPLESS IN SEATTLE; great songs and beautiful score - enhancing the beautiful and funny story.

I am into romantic comedies! I love While You Were Sleeping, Joe Vs. The Volcano, Pearl Harbor (the first part was romantic and funny), Antz, the new Romeo & Juliet sucked but it was funny but I don't think it was supposed to be....Clayton

Maybe it's better that Hard Target answers himself
If he is a she, then the undersigned is overwhelmed

Take care (literally),

Hey Dr. Zaius - are you yourself, a man, a women, or an ape ?
Seriously speaking, nowadays one can never be sure of one's sex judging by the name (- or even by a blurred photograph)...
By the way, I'm an ape.
And a hopeless romantic, too.posted 08-18-2001 03:19 PM PT (US)
