One of very favorite movies.
It's cute.
It's romantic.
It's hilarious.
It has one of the best soundtracks of all time.
I think it was somewhere in between the karaoke night, playing house in Ikea, him sketching buildings on the inside of her forearm, and the Hall and Oats dance moment that I fell in love with this movie. Some might say that the ending is stupid, but the ending is actually what made me love this movie the most.
If 500 Days of Summer were just another typical romantic comedy, Tom and Summer would have ended up together in the end. There would have been a cute make-up scene, a monumental kiss, and a cheesy one liner just before the credits began rolling. But it's not a typical romantic comedy, and I love that. It's a realistic story about new love. It reminds us that even when things don't work out the way we think they should, it's not the end. Even when we get hurt or people we care about leave our lives, there's still hope and happiness to be found out there. Love is a real emotion, a real thing, not a fairy tale. Whether or not fate is involved, love will find us all someday, and when it's with the right person, you'll be sure.

"I just... I just woke up one day and I knew."
"Knew what?"
"What I was never sure of with you."
