Upside down kisses in the rain, the whole enemies to lovers gag, and a meet cute for the ages, no we aren’t talking about our weekend loves, this week we are talking all about romcoms. What has happened to the classic rom-com? Why does every movie now have to be action packed with huge budgets and crazy ass story lines?! (Looking at you Fast X). We miss the days where we could go to the movies to laugh AND cry over a heartfelt and funny love story. Which is why, this week, we are talking to Bridesmaids' writer Annie Mumolo to reminisce about our favorite rom-coms and figure out how to get romcoms back in our theaters. Annie shares some behind the scenes stories that will totally change the way you watch Bridesmaids in the future (hint: why that hysterical airplane scene almost didn’t happen!)
