Glen Powell steals the scene as the big-hearted guy in the romcom I just watched, and I couldn’t stop grinning through half the movie.
He plays the kind of 'nice guy' who’s effortlessly earnest — not syrupy, just genuinely considerate and funny in the way that makes romcom chemistry click. His banter with the lead lands, and he brings that twinkly charisma he showed in other roles while keeping things grounded. There are moments when he leans into classic romcom timing and then flips it with a slightly modern, self-aware wink, which I loved.
If you like a romcom that blends old-school warmth with a touch of cheeky contemporary humor, his performance is the main reason to watch. Personally, seeing him carry both the silly and tender beats made the whole film feel like a cozy night in — I walked away smiling and a little head-over-heels for the character.

Scrolling through late-night rec lists, I keep finding the same comforting pattern: the truly great 'nice guy' fanfics don't just parade virtue, they examine it. The best ones make me root for a character whose kindness is real, sometimes brittle, sometimes stubborn, and often tested. I like stories in the 'gentle!character' or 'slow burn' vein where patience and small, honest moments do the heavy lifting. In fandoms like 'Sherlock' and 'Harry Potter', that usually means quiet scenes—tea on the kitchen table, a bandaged hand cleaned without comment—that say more than grand speeches.
What I tend to recommend to friends are fics that avoid the entitled or manipulative 'nice guy' trope; instead they reward empathy. Look for tags like 'redemption arc', 'found family', or 'supportive!partner' on sites like Archive of Our Own. For 'Marvel' readers I often point people toward domestic, healing Steve Rogers stories where heroism is everyday kindness. For 'My Hero Academia', there are lovely Izuku-centric fics that focus on mentorship and steady emotional growth.
If you want re-reads, pick fics with consistent character voice and a balance of conflict and cozy payoff. Those small, believable character beats are what stick with me most, and I always come away softer for having read them.

I get that question a lot at my book club, and honestly the phrase 'nice guy' pops up in different places, so there isn’t a single, universally recognized novel series titled exactly 'nice guy' that everyone points to. What usually happens is people mean one of three things: a self-published romance series using 'Nice Guy' as a subtitle, a fanfiction/web serial that adopted the name on platforms like Wattpad, or they're mixing it up with the movie 'The Nice Guys' (screenplay by Shane Black and Anthony Bagarozzi).
If you’ve seen a cover, the fastest route is to check the back cover or the title page for the author, or plug the exact title into Goodreads, Amazon, or your local library catalog. Self-published series can be tricky because multiple indie authors sometimes use similar series names. I’ve tracked down a few of those myself by searching lines from the blurb in quotes — that usually leads straight to the author page. It’s a little detective work, but I kind of enjoy the hunt.

I still smile whenever I hear that opening riff — it hits different. 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' was tracked during the sessions for 'Billion Dollar Babies' at Morgan Studios in London, with Bob Ezrin producing. The studio take is the one you hear on the single and LP; it’s tight, theatrical, and has that glossy early-'70s rock sheen that made Alice Cooper's band sound huge without being overblown.
Live, the song was rolled out on the 'Billion Dollar Babies' tour soon after the record was finished, and its public debut was in London at the Hammersmith venue (the classic Odeon/Hammersmith Apollo space where so many rock premieres happened). Hearing it in that cramped, raucous theater for the first time, people reportedly flipped — the chorus was tailor-made for singalongs. For me, mixing the studio polish from Morgan and the raw punch of those Hammersmith nights captures why the track still feels alive; it’s studio craft and stage chaos braided together, and that contrast is part of its charm.

Reading 'No More Mr. Nice Guy' was like getting a wake-up call I didn’t know I needed. The book really digs into how trying to be overly accommodating can backfire—like when you prioritize everyone else’s needs to avoid conflict but end up feeling resentful or invisible. One big lesson that stuck with me is the idea of 'covert contracts,' where you do things for others expecting something in return without ever communicating it. It made me realize how often I’d fall into that trap, silently hoping people would just 'get' what I wanted.
Another key takeaway was embracing authenticity instead of seeking approval. The author argues that 'Nice Guys' often hide their true selves to avoid rejection, but this just leads to shallow relationships. Learning to set boundaries and express needs openly felt terrifying at first, but it’s been game-changing. Now, when I catch myself slipping into people-pleasing mode, I ask: 'Am I doing this because I genuinely want to, or because I’m afraid of disapproval?' Still a work in progress, but way more freeing.

My late-night reading habit has led me to some of the steamiest, heart-in-throat kiss scenes ever written. I can still feel the sticky heat of summer when I first read 'Call Me by Your Name'—that slow, searching kiss that carries the whole atmosphere of a sunlit Italian afternoon. It’s not flashy, but it lingers because of how the author layers memory and sensation. I read it on a train home, scribbling thoughts into the margins, and the scene replayed in my head for days.
On the opposite end of things, 'Fifty Shades of Grey' is almost surgical in how it stages desire: sharp, explicit, and in-your-face. If you’re after technical sensuality and full-blown physicality (including very passionate kisses), that one delivers. 'The Bronze Horseman' warmed me the same way—epic wartime stakes plus a kiss that feels inevitable and dangerous. Lastly, 'The Kiss Quotient' surprised me with a refreshingly honest portrayal of intimacy: the kissing scenes are sweet, messy, and utterly human. If you like contrast—bittersweet longing versus hot, immediate chemistry—these books make a nice stack on the bedside table.

Depending on where I turn on the TV, French kisses can be treated like nothing, like a scandal, or like something only adults should see. Living between different countries for years taught me that it's not a single global rule — it's a patchwork. In the US, for instance, network television tends to be conservative about long, passionate open-mouth kisses during family hours: broadcasters self-regulate and the FCC focuses more on nudity and explicit sexual acts, but networks still cut or shorten scenes to avoid viewer backlash or advertiser trouble.
In Europe, France and parts of Western Europe are much more relaxed — public affection is less stigmatized and broadcasters let more intimate kissing air, especially after the watershed. Contrast that with places like India or mainland China where state and censorship boards have historically suppressed passionate kissing on TV and in films; scenes are often trimmed, blurred, or replaced with a fade-to-black. The Middle East varies widely too, with many countries opting to censor or ban such scenes entirely.
So if you’re curious about a specific show, check the channel, whether it’s public or premium cable, what time it airs, and the country’s cultural norms. Streaming platforms have shifted the landscape too — but regional edits still happen. I usually peek at ratings or parental controls before recommending something to family, and sometimes I laugh at a dramatic cutaway that tries to pass for romance.

I stumbled upon 'A Thousand Kisses' during a lazy weekend binge, and it turned out to be such a heartfelt ride! The drama revolves around two sisters, Woo Joo and Woo Bin, whose lives get tangled in love, family secrets, and societal pressures. Woo Joo falls for a divorced man, Jang Woo Bin, which sparks tension because her family disapproves. Meanwhile, Woo Bin’s own romance faces hurdles due to her fiancé’s hidden past.
The show’s strength lies in its emotional depth—it doesn’t shy away from messy family dynamics or the sacrifices women make. The grandmother’s traditional views clash with the sisters’ modern choices, making for some intense moments. What I loved was how it balanced melodrama with quiet, relatable scenes, like Woo Joo’s struggle between duty and love. It’s not just a romance; it’s a snapshot of generational conflicts in Korean families.
