Love it! There is definitely an "Austen Connection" to your July 16 installment - "Clueless"! And also "10 Things" because I always sense that Jane Austen with her courtship plots (and all the arguments therein) must have been influenced by "Taming of the Shrew," which of course is what "10 Things" is retelling. (That is a topic we will tackle at some point.)

Looking forward to all these romcom discussions, we're here for it!

Yay! This sounds like fun! I really enjoyed the Popcorn Dialogues, so I'm looking forward this new series. And for the record--I'm with you regarding Bridget Jone's Diary!

I am SO excited for this! I love most of the movies on this list, and as a small indie bookstore owner I cannot wait to hear your take on You’ve Got Mail. It’s rare to hear these kinds of stories analyzed with much seriousness or affection (except for on the Sentimental Garbage podcast - highly recommend!) and I’m really looking forward to it.
