Clicky Poll: Thoughts on Love Actually

[cinco]

I don't have strong feelings either way.

[rootbeerfloat]

LOVE.

I would like the haters to identify themselves so I know who to ignore for the next 2 weeks. TIA!

[longtimenopost]

LOVE. Brings the Christmas spirit

[pinotgrig]

I haven't seen it, but plan on netflixing it this weekend when G is at my parents.

[pooh8402]

Love it!

[Deleted]

Love it. My husband and I watch it every Christmas Eve!

[thebreakfastclub]

I've never heard of this.

[countthestars]

Dislike. I don't actually really remember much about it except that I didn't really like it.

[babyrn]

Love love love!!!

[bowies]

I liked it. It's not MY FAVORITE though.

[juliette21]

I voted "Disklike" because I found it kind of corny. I just saw it for the first time with DH last Christmas season, it was my pick for our Saturday night movie rental night and I was kind of embarrassed I made him watch it. His face was priceless throughout it. He was polite, but he looked like he would rather be anywhere else than watching that movie, LOL.

I think it's a lovely movie. I watched it the other day and it made me so homesick for London (and sad that I never once saw Colin Firth while I lived there). It's not my favourite or overly brilliant, but I definitely enjoy it.

[timorousbeastie]

Love love love. I will never not love that movie. I think I own 3 copies of the DVD (because everyone knows I love it and keeps giving me it as a gift), and I'm really tempted to get the digital version, too.

[pinkdutchtulips]

I love it ... but only during the holidays. In fact I watched it yesterday !

[Marmee]

The porn stand ins part I don't care for, the rest I like ok.

[cjeanette]

I like it. Not love.

[Willis Jackson]

I've only seen it once when it first came out, but I remember hating it.

[h]

Who hates it? Why?!

[halfpint]

I love it, actually.

[halfpint]

Also, it came out while I was in grad school, so I watched it with friends in London. It was kind of fun to feel like a little part of some British patriotism during Hugh Grant's prime minister speech...and to be the only person in the theater laughing when he says he's going to Wisconsin. Definitely a lot of nostalgia when I watch it

[ladygrey]

It's one of my favorite Christmas movies.

[Queen Mamadala]

Love it. Need to watch it again soon.

Maybe he was in France then.

Lol! My friend does the PR for the stylist who does his hair, so I like to think I know him even though we've never met.

[motzie]

It was alright. I'm not a big fan of romantic comedies in general. Hugh Grant and Colin Firth saved it.

Like... what? lol

I get not having seen it, but you've never HEARD of it? How is that possible?

Do you live on Mount Crumpit north of Whoville?

Wikipedia told me it is a 2003 British Christmas-themed comedy, so there's 4 strikes right there.

I've had over a decade to forget about it!

[teatimefor2]

Love it! It was also the first movie DH and I saw together.

Dislike.

I hate all chick flicks though.

I'll be over here watching Die Hard on Christmas.

It's so much better than your average chick flick though! But I do agree that Die Hard is an excellent Christmas movie, we watch it every year in addition to Love Actually and The Holiday.

[brooklyn]

Love it!!!

Of course Alan rickman's character sucks, but I'm okay with that because it gives Emma Thompson yet another chance to show off what a wonderful actress she is. That last scene in the school is heartbreaking.

Now that I'm a middle-aged mom myself the scene where she listens to the Janis Joplin CD in her bedroom KILLS ME. I mean I thought it was sad when I first saw it, but now it's even worse lol. EFF YOU, SNAPE!

As a Canadian, I must point out that it was a JONI MITCHELL cd.
