Nominations have closed, but we still have a few clarifications!
The following fandom is being rejected; however if the book version is acceptable to the nominator, I can approve that version instead:
The criteria for the exchange is the following:
The following fandom is being rejected; however if the book version is acceptable to the nominator, I can approve that version instead:
- Sense and Sensibility (1995): This is not a romantic comedy, but a romantic drama. Nominator, please let me know if you'd like to nominate the book instead
- Impromptu (1991): Having watched this, I do not believe it falls under the category of a romantic comedy. It's a biopic with elements of romance and comedy. As such, it will not be added to the tagset.
The criteria for the exchange is the following:
- Movies: Romantic comedies; lighthearted comedic films with a focus on a romantic relationship with a happily ever after or happy-for-now ending. Examples: You've Got Mail, Isn't It Romantic?, But I'm A Cheerleader!
- Novels: Romance novels. These can fall into several subcategories (paranormal, young adult, historical, contemporary, etc.) but generally follow the same beats and have a close focus on a romantic relationship; as with romantic comedies, these end with a happily ever after or a happy-for-now. Examples: Julia Quinn novels, Red White & Royal Blue, Bride by Ali Hazelwood
- Other media: accepted on a case by case basis, but must have a happily ever after or happy-for-now for a primary couple (in the case of visual novels and video games, all endings should fit this criteria)
