Box Office Mojo provides the most poular romantic comdies of all time so far. My Big Fat Greek Wedding is the highest grossing rom-com ever, in life time grossing is earned $241,438,208 increasingly higher then rank 2 which is the film What Women Want. My Big Fat Greek Wedding was only shown in 108 theatres as critics and even the people that made the film didn't expect it to be a big hit. So for our film we our going to reasearch films that haven't done as well in the instudustry and ones with unique twists to the films eg. Juno and Knocked-Up.
