Romeo and Juliet?
shareJack and Rose?
shareNever let go!
;)
That's a classic!
Yeah, so is "It wasn't over, it's still isn't over!"
shareIf you're a bird, I'm a bird. ;-)
sharetie b/w titanic and a walk to remember
"I'm in love with Dominic Monaghan."
"Who is he?
"No its okay if i told you, you'd love him too."
Ill go with Romeo and Juliet.
Definately NOT the notebook.
Oh, and Dominic Monaghan is awesome <3
The notebook is the greatest love story their love survived many obstacles, her parents, him going off to war, her being engaged, then having children and her illnees. It overcame them all and is beautiful
If you're a bird I'm a bird
Panic Room
Zapp: Kif, I'm feeling the captain's itch.
Kif: I'll get the powder, sir.
romeo and juliet were just spoiled brats filled with pure lust.
i hardly consider that a love story
-----------------
...What's up with airplane food?
i totally agree.
shareomg! i so agree with you!
i thought their so-called 'love' was only triggered by each others physical appearences...
R+J was not a love story it was a boy who wanted to end a civil war and a girl that didn't like being told what to do. If you study Shakespeare you get really frustrated that R+J is his best know work. Hamlet changed the entire course of dramatic history...ok, deep breath...this is not a shakespeare thread...
Greatest love story ever, IMHO...Westley and Buttercup. Or should it be Humperdink and his own ego? If you don't know what I'm talking about...what the heck have you been watching for the past 22 years??
Humperdink wins. Hands down ;)
shareYou are SO correct about Shakespeare. Thank you! Real love does not trigger suicide, let alone double suicide.
Westley and Buttercup are good choices, but so are Nickie Ferrante and Terry McKay from An Affair To Remember. That was a love story!!!
As from a guy, I think A Walk To Remember, simply because of the score...and because (the acting was all there but what made up for the acting, was the music score composed for the movie) music score+scene=tears
shareThis was my first time seeing /hearing Mandy Moore. I didn't realize she was a real singer.
->reifications are the shadows cast by the opacity of language
I totally agree about Romeo & Juliet being spoiled kids full of lust. They were foolish, definitely not the greatest love story.
I personally think Pride & Prejudice
Check out my new blog: http://heckyeahheckno.wordpress.com/
So spoiled kids can't be in love? Dumb argument. And you can't have love without lust, right?

I would say, for me it has to be :
1. Wall-e and Eve (Wall-E)
2. Robert Kincaid and Francesca ( Bridges of Madison County)
Loved both the movies immensley

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind or donnie darko
"And I would like my undies back"
i personally love titanic and the notebook, along with other movies of the same genre, like nicholas sparks movies, but i think that the classics have it all made out. breakfast at tiffanys is a great love story, as is roman holiday (both audrey hepburn movies). audrey really grasps the reality of love. especially the bittersweet ending of roman holiday. i won't spoil it for those who haven't seen it (one of my fave movies, def recommend it!) but it's amazing. rent it now! great loves stories...

shareThe greatest love story ever told would be The Passion of the Christ
shareI'm throwing in the phantom of the opera
Enough is enough! I have had it with these *beep* snakes on this *beep* plane
Batman And Robin
shareYes!
shareMoulin Rouge?
shareCasablanca hands down
shareThese stories all suck! Come on, give me a story where one or both of the lovers doesn't die. Jeez, even with the Batman and Robin one (lol, by the way, lol indeed) Batman went through like five different Robins because they kept getting killed.
Come on, what about Midsummer Night's Dream, for all you people who said Romeo and Juliet? Or what about Strictly Ballroom, for those who were Baz Luhrman fans? Or the Casablanca voter; why not Sabrina if you love Bogie so much?
Why you always got to be choosing the tragic love stories??
Why settle with words what you can settle with a flamethrower?
jees it took 5 pages for there to be a Casa Blanca. Are you kidding me, people? Casa Blanca IS THE GREATEST LOVE STORY OF ALL TIME AND EVERY FREAKING FILM CRTICIC AGREES. Movies like A Walk to Remember doesn't even deserve consideration.
shareThank God! Finally someone has some sense!
shareLmao hahah I opened this thread hoping to find a comment like this. Didn't know id find it so soon through this discussion. U made my day.
Silly Rabbit...Touch my Trix and die.
Lucy and Desi.

- Bram Stoker's Dracula (i.e. Coppola's version with Gary Oldman)
- Brief Encounter
- I Capture the Castle (haven't seen the film, but the romance in the book is a classic)
- Pride & Prejudice
And personally I love those "unstated love" stories, a la Jim and Pam in "The Office"...
[deleted]
Damn straight, Eternal Sunshine. "Meet me at Montauk." ...The idea that love can surpass time & memory-- it doesn't get any more romantic than that.
shareI like the 70's love stories like Annie Hall and The Way We Were best. They were more realistic.
Recently, I liked Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind best.
Predictions:DiCaprio/Winslet/Davis/Shannon
I don't know if one can pick one single greatest love story.
But I probably wouldn't pick ones that are all tragic. And I would never pick Romeo and Juliet, like a lot of people always want to do. I find it hard to believe that anyone who's actually read it sees it as a love story and not just 2 horny tweens who just met and want to bang. *shrugs*

My Girl. Poor wee Macaulay Culkin :C
House: Cheese is the Devil's plaything.
Clark and Lana (Smalville)
I say Jack and Rose from Titanic. :D
Colt: Oh sure, Rocky, we gonna go make the friendly door open?
This thread is useless..
Annie Hall.
Rocky and Adrian.:)
Wesley and Buttercup.
Forrest and Jenny.
Ben and Matt.

Rose and Jack, but I guess the Notebook too. But I am gonna go all out and say Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII believe what you want but he had to love her!!!!
THE MOST HAPPY

Tristan & Isolde?
ooh ooh! Zoey & Stark!!!
h/o let me go look at my book collection...
OH! Sorcha & Red from Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier.
... Or Danica & Zane..
Danica & Zane... i always loved a good hate turns to love story.
-- i just looked at a post avove and wanderer & ian and Melanie & Jared are really good ones.
I loved The Host. I loved it more than Twilight ( Twilight gets put down b/c it turned into this teeny bopper *beep* with the movies and whatnot but the books are great and the love stories are to me priceless. But what can you do when it becomes so popular it drowns out any beauty and just ends up being mocked and whatnot. People love to hate it but i just love it.)
-- Oh and Atonement. I cried.
I don't eat animals. =D Woo.
That's a great one.
They really loved each other if at the end they ended up fighting so much it's because they were both very passionate people.
Henry never divorced his wife before he had so many mistresses but he never thought before of replacing his queen.
It's really a great love story
Anchorman....hands down.
Right, you couldn't have missed the point more. I mean, in a barebones thick-headed yet sufficient argument, why the *beep* would they kill themselves if it was lust?? That's *beep* stupid!!
Anyway, IMO, the greatest love stories highlight the time spent together and end up ending in tragedy to emphasize that it'll end sometime. I don't believe "The Greatest Love Story" could be a perpetual tale of happiness really
Because they were overly dramatic young people? How many people who commit suicide have a really good reason to do so?
I loved Romeo and Juliet when it was all about Claire Danes and Leonardo Dicaprio. Then I read the play. Most shallow "love story" of all time.
Call me Katie. ;-)
True romance
shareMoulin Rouge! (Christian & Satine)
Lafayette: "HAPPY DANCE!" :)
