UNBELIEVABLE

First of all, I think this prompt is sort of difficult.  It shouldn't be, but I can't think of much to say, and that probably means that I am entirely too willing to believe everything I read/see in a movie.  Oh well.

But what does come to mind is the COMPLETE DOUBLE STANDARD in romantic comedies that I find SO unbelievable.  

1) Knocked Up - Yes, Seth Rogen is a lovable goofball.  But I don't care how drunk you are, Katherine Heigl... an extremely beautiful, intelligent woman like yourself would probably never take him home.  It's perfectly reasonable that after getting to know him, she could fall in love with him, BUT if Katherine Heigl realistically met Seth Rogen at a club, I doubt the night would end the way it does.  And if Seth Rogen were Jude Law and Katherine Heigl was ... oh wait, there aren't any unattractive female actresses in Hollywood!  MY BAD.

2) Wedding Crashers - Vince Vaughn is yet another "Average Joe", and this time he doesn't even have a good heart like Seth Rogen, so why does he get to be with Isla Fisher?  Where is "Average Jane"?  

3) When Harry Met Sally - I LOVE this movie, but it doesn't stop Billy Crystal from looking a lot like Rob Schneider.

The list could go on, but why bother when it's the same concept every time?  This combination of gorgeous girl/sloppy guy never seems convincing to me, yet audiences (and, ironically, myself included) can't get enough.  

But then again that leads me to another question: Isn't this scenario plausible in the real world as well? 

If the guy has enough money, it definitely does.  Sad, but true.
