It’s harder and harder to make a well-done romantic comedy these days because the conventions have been so played out.
Bip is the romantic and burlesque hero for our time. Bip is a modern-day Don Quixote.
I find the idea of walking down the aisle and then being handed to the groom by the father very romantic.
I wouldn’t treat a romantic scene any differently than any other scene. I would really say the biggest preparation was chewing gum and breath mints! For a kissing scene, it’s all about the breath mints!
To me, little Mike Wazowski is one of the best characters I ever got to play because he was funny. He was outrageous. He got angry. He was romantic. He was a full, well-rounded character.
My parents met in the theatre, and I thought that was so romantic. My dad was a scenic designer and my mom was a dancer, and that’s how they met; they met in the theatre.
I think the most romantic thing you can do is just turn up. Turn up when it’s difficult for you. Travel halfway around the world or just up the road. Whatever it is, just be there.
Hugh Grant is the main man. He’s the number one romantic comedy man in the world.
A shiny ring isn’t romantic to me. I think thought and love into what you do for the person you’re in love with – that’s romance.
Romantic films are not a genre I would choose.
It’s a very romantic sentiment, but to think that you would die if you didn’t write, well, I would definitely choose to not write and live.
I thought being a cowboy would be a terribly romantic thing to do. But it wasn’t. I shoveled a lot of stalls.
Good romantic suspense can never underestimate the audience, and the best political leaders know how to shape a compelling narrative that respects voters and paints a picture of what is to come.
I always wanted a guitar. I always wanted to be a cowboy singer because I also listened to Hank Williams, and he would always sing these neat romantic songs.
I did send a girl a plane ticket asking her for a visit, I guess that’s quite romantic.
I’ve never tried to reach a certain demographic of an audience or try to say, ‘OK, now I’m going to do this type of film to transition myself into more adult roles.’ Or a romantic hero. Or whatever it may be – you know what I mean?

In a big Bollywood romantic film, taking my shirt off and spreading the hand towards the mountain with dancers behind me are not my cup of tea.
I don’t think Hollywood knows what to do with me. I would imagine that when it comes to romantic comedies, my name would be pretty low down on the list.
I’m more likely to give you a cuddle than a punch in the face. I have a soft side, especially with my girlfriend. I send her flowers and use my culinary skills to pull off romantic meals. I do great Thai dishes.
It’s a bit of a cliche, but I think girls like to get flowers. I think books are quite romantic, too. If you can find an interesting book, that brings something out in your partner that can be very romantic.
Just because a romantic relationship ends doesn’t mean that the other facets of your relationship have to end… or, indeed, doesn’t mean they can’t get better.
I don’t live with people, that’s why my relationships last. I’m not romantic. Even when I was a teenager if somebody asked if they could hold my hand I’d say, – no, it’s not heavy, I can hold it myself, thank you’.
But no, I don’t really like romantic comedies, so I don’t really care. I never go see ‘em.
I don’t think of death in a romantic way anymore.
