Looper posted:The fat woman who isn't fat at all (but we'll make tons of bad jokes about it regardless), I thought that sort of was the joke though? Like, this woman clearly isn't fat, and we're supposed to think that everyone who's making those jokes is being kind of an rear end in a top hat. IIRC the only person who pushes back against the fat comments is Hugh Grant himself who is obviously supposed to be sympathetic. ("owooowowooh, would we call her chubby?") While we're on the subject though I totally understand most of the criticisms about Love Actually (it is pretty freaking weird that there are not one, not two, but three separate romances between male bosses and their female employees) but I like it anyway and it's one of my Christmas staples. "I am Colin, god of sex."

Xealot posted:The IKEA scene is brilliant, conceptually. This performed farce of domestic artifice inside literally artificial domestic tableaus. Except for JGL's character, who's absolutely kidding on the square. The scene immediately before it is great too, where JGL is trying to force the same mood again and Summer just isn't having it. A lesser movie would have put that scene after the fun IKEA scene instead of before it.
