Description:
Is the romantic comedy dead? It’s a question many fans of the genre have been asking themselves over the years following its heyday in past decades. There have been glimmers of hope for the genre here and there, though, whether that be Anyone But You’s recent box office success or the release of Upgraded, which just landed on Amazon Prime. When CinemaBlend spoke to the new movie’s director, she shared just how much attention she and the filmmakers paid to the rom-coms of the past we all have fallen for over and over… and over.<br/><br/>Carlson Young helmed Upgraded, with this being her second feature film and first romantic comedy. The director is also an actress who was part of the Scream TV series, among a number of credits over the years.

Fix the fu..n roof!!!' A third said: 'Clubs rotten in every single aspect.'<br/><br/>'They still haven’t fixed the roof?? sorry to the people sat right under the hole in the ceiling,' said another.<br/><br/>Co-chairman Avram Glazer was 200 miles away from Old Trafford in the Royal Box at Wembley as United’s women’s team beat Tottenham to lift the FA Cup. <br/><br/>Ratcliffe sent a good luck message to coach Marc Skinner and the players in the morning and posted his congratulations on social media.")
