esteemed trungles, i come with an important question. What is the best romcom to watch in winter?
ESTEEMED omg incredible. I don't think I've ever been esteemed before, so I'll do my best to live up to it.
SO I'm a little late on this question for Holiday rom-coms, but it's still winter here right now, and I love rom-coms. In no particular order:
The Holiday (2006) - Kate Winslet! Jack Black! Cameron Diaz! Jude Law! John Krasinski for some reason (he shows up for like three minutes)! Kathryn Hahn (also in the same scene as John Krasinski)! Also there's a little, itty-bitty A Knight's Tale reunion because Rufus Sewell shows up and so does Shannyn Sossamon, which I find to be very sweet. Jack Black is cute as Christmas and hot as breakfast in this movie, and he somehow did this straightforwardly sweet rom-com AND Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny in the same year. The man has RANGE. You get two romances in this movie, and I think the Kate Winslet one is much more of a high-budget Silver Screen romance while the Cameron Diaz one is much more a Hallmark Channel romance, which I think is great because I love both kinds of romances.
When Harry Met Sally (1989) - This movie is iconic, and I love it to bits. I always have it saved to my phone so I can watch it on literally every plane ride just in case I get stressed out. Meg Ryan is incredible in it as a neurotic and incredibly self-assured woman who develops a friendship with Billy Crystal's character over the course of about a dozen years. Bruno Kirby and Carrie Fisher play some hilarious supporting characters. This movie is also lovely in that the most dramatic character arc belongs to the male love interest. Like, yes, Meg Ryan's character also grows, but there's no change to her world view or her wants and desires because she's not hurting anyone with the way she navigates those things, and Billy Crystal's character grows into someone you could imagine having lunch with, a far cry from when we first meet him. It's also very well-written. I downloaded the script just so I could pick it apart and learn from it.
Single All the Way (2021) - KATHY NAJIMY AND JENNIFER COOLIDGE ARE BOTH IN THIS MOVIE. I don't know what I was expecting, but this holiday rom-com charmed the thermal socks off me. Michael Urie and Philemon Chambers play best friends who fake a relationship so Michael's family will stop badgering him about there being no romance in his life. It's a fake dating movie, and it is also a delightful subversion of the Hallmark romance. Michael Urie escapes his big city life back to his small hometown where he meets an extremely hunky local spinning instructor (lol) played by Luke McFarlane, who is a literal mainstay of many actual, literal Hallmark romance movies. It's great. I enjoyed it immensely.
Moonstruck (1987) - Cher and Nicolas Cage star in this movie, and it's sort of difficult to describe. It's very funny, and it's heightened by how every single actor plays their character with the seriousness of a prestige drama. Olympia Dukakis and John Mahoney are also in this, and they're both delightful. I still occasionally yell, "I lost my hand! I lost my bride!!!" out loud at random intervals in the year. Keeps my loved ones on their toes.
While You Were Sleeping (1995) - This movie is a charmer and a half! Sandra Bullock stars as a lonely woman who works at the L in Chicago who falls in love with one of the passengers. One day, he falls victim to an attempted mugging and falls onto the tracks. Our heroine saves his life, but he winds up in a coma. A series of misunderstandings leads his entire family to believe that she's his fiancée, and polite shenanigans ensue (except in the case of one testicle-inspection, which might be regarded as pretty impolite, but it's very sweet in context). I also find Bill Pullman extremely blandsome and regular-looking to the point of being sincerely erotic. I don't know how this happened.
And I think that covers my wintry rom-coms! I watch all of them year-round, but these ones all vaguely take place in the winter-time and sometimes have a little bit to do with the holidays season.

Buddie x Single All the way au.
Eddie is going home for the holidays. His family constantly nags him to start dating someone. So to finally get them off his back he proposes a solution to Buck that can fix both of there problems. Eddie’s family will give him some peace and quiet for once and Buck will have a family to spend Christmas with. Buck even teases him about it being a hallmark cliche. So Eddie decides that pretending to date his best-friend will be an easy solution but once they arrive chaos ensues. Feelings begin to rise to the surface and Eddie begins to see that maybe Buck is more than just a friend. That maybe dating isn’t out of the cards for him. Especially when its with someone special. Buck begins to learn the true meaning of Christmas. Through caroling, classical Christmas movies, many mugs of Abuelas hot chocolate and a slightly overbearing and caring family.
Au; Buck spends the holidays with Eddie’s family in Texas. (Fanfic is currently is process of being written.)

5 Book Recs Based on Your Favorite Holiday Rom-Com!❄️💝
The holiday season is special for many reasons, but one of my favorites is watching all of the cheesy and sweet holiday rom-coms every year. It always warms my heart and reminds me just how filled with love everyone is this time of year (unless you’re Scrooge). To celebrate this season, we tapped into our inner romantic to provide book recs for those of you who may have already finished your yearly holiday movie binge!
If you like You’ve Got Mail (1998), then you might like I Hope This Doesn’t Find You!
The intense and passionate internet romance that blossoms between Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks’ characters in You’ve Got Mail is one for the ages. It sets the benchmark for enemies-to-lovers romances as the two eventually discover that the person they’ve fallen for is the very person they’ve grown to despise. Fans of this burning romance will love Ann Liang’s newest novel, I Hope This Doesn’t Find You, a snarky academic rivals-to-lovers story that you won’t be able to put down!
If you like Single All the Way (2021), then you might like The Feeling of Falling in Love!
Single All the Way is a hilarious queer holiday rom-com centered around the chaos that ensues when your family is determined to set you up with your bff/roommate. And while this takes friends-to-lovers to a whole new level, maybe, just maybe, your family has a point. Fans of Single All the Way will be head over heels for Mason Deaver’s The Feeling of Falling in Love, a new kind of love story about bad decisions we make and the people (aka your roommate/reluctant wedding date) who help get us back on the right path.
If you like Happiest Season (2020), then you might like What a Desi Girl Wants!
One of the newest holiday movies on the list, this charming sapphic holiday rom-com starring Kristen Stewart is about wanting your family’s acceptance while staying true to yourself. Fans of Happiest Season will love Sabina Khan’s What a Desi Girl Wants, a brilliant love story filled with nuanced family dynamics and a sprinkling of sabotage that’s sure to set your queer (or not so queer) heart ablaze.
If you like The Holiday (2006), then you might like Stars in Their Eyes!
The Holiday, featuring an all-star cast of Kate Winslet, Cameron Diaz, Jude Law, and Jack Black, is one of the best meet-cute holiday romances of all time. The film not only puts you in the holiday spirit but also has heartwarming storylines that will make you believe in love again. Fans of The Holiday and quirky meet-cutes will fall hard and fast for Stars in Their Eyes from Jessica Walton and Aśka, a one-of-a-kind YA graphic novel that celebrates the excitement of meeting someone special for the first time.
If you like When Harry Met Sally (1989), then you might like Rosewood!
When Harry Met Sally might take the crown for one of the most famous rom-com movies of all time, the holiday celebrations in the film always leave me feeling so festive, but if I’ve learned one thing from this well-known romance, it’s that you should always, ALWAYS, follow your heart. Fans of this quirky love story will absolutely adore Sayantani DasGupta’s witty and bright Rosewood, a romantic and funny retelling of Sense & Sensibility set at a Bridgerton-esque summer camp, where Elia must choose to follow her carefully laid plans or let a certain someone derail them.

Happy Queer Media Monday!
Today: Single All The Way (2021)
(Nick and Peter)
Single All The Way is a gay Christmas romcom released by Netflix. The story follows Peter, who is unable to keep a long-term relationship, despite his family really, REALLY wanting him to. When his most recent boyfriend turns out to be actually married, causing a break-up just before Christmas, Peter tries to remedy things by bringing his best friend and roommate Nick home over the holidays instead. The original idea is to fake a relationship, but it goes immediately out of the window when Peter’s mother announces that she arranged a blind date for him. Meanwhile, the other half of the family works hard on getting Peter together with Nick. Shenanigans ensue.
It’s a Christmas romantic comedy. What do you want me to say. These things are formulaic by design.
Queer Media Monday is an action I started to talk about some important and/or interesting parts of our queer heritage, that people, especially young people who are only just beginning to discover the wealth of stories out there, should be aware of. Please feel free to join in on the fun and make your own posts about things you personally find important!
#I actually really enjoyed it#which comes as a surprise because romantic comedies are not really my genre#but it was fun and cute and wholesome#Peter and Nick have a great friendship going on#what really got me was that scene where Peter casually quoted Cue to himself#like yessss these people actually know gay culture!#so yeah#movies#Christmas movies#romcom#christmas romcom#movie rec#Netflix#Single All The Way#gay movies#queer movies#gay Christmas#Queer Media Monday

I knew the theories I was seeing in the tag reminded me of something... (Tommy knows Buck loves Eddie and will tell him, Eddie eventually getting jealous, endgame Buddie...)
Two best friends who are NOT dating and definitely not in love. One has a date with this handsome and great guy and is having a good time. The love interest is not blind however and it's him who makes the main character realise that it's his best friend he actually wants to be with. That's basically Single All The Way's plot !
