So, here's my tragic tale.

Here I am in New York City around February very much depressed about my job situation, for I know not when I will be laid off, but am certain it's coming.

So I head for church this Sunday and am still depressed. And this girl I used to know in the same church, who happened to become my friend saw me in my despair.

Ok, let me cheer you up, boy. So she took me out lunching. We went to an Italian restaurant and I was still depressed.

Ok, let me take you to a movie, she said. I was like, why not!

She says there is this cool new movie which she has been meaning to see. So we head for the theatre after lunch.

She goes gets tickets as I'm still disillusioned with my situation.

We go into the theatre and I find it bizarre. I'm the ONLY guy in the theatre, buzzing with teens and young women, then moms....... many of whom look at me surprised, I am sure I picked a few giggles too.

Then the movie title shows up on screen, "He's just not that into you"

I wish I had this hindsight that I have now, about the type of movie this is, LMAO

And thus it came to pass, poor Tony is sitting in the theatre, seeing probably the "worst movie" he had ever seen, hands down. Amidst giggles of girls, ooohhhs, aaaahhhs.....

And then came the killer shot, "this is SOOOOOOOOO us, not a single guy here", came a voice from somewhere.

"Oh here's one......."

I asked my "angelic" friend if she can hide me within her jacket.

Now, how I fled out of the theatre, I leave it to your imagination

Yeah, it really wasn't all that great. I laughed out loud probably twice. The rest is pretty obvious crudeness and just comes off as trying too hard. Even the fact Seth Rogen is cast as lead seems like a bit much, like the filmmakers just want to be part of this whole Judd Apatow-Superbad-Seth Rogen's group's sweep over comedy, but it falls short of anything they've done.

It shows you how things are so relative. I went with a couple of girl friends to see He's Just Not That Into You and all three of us really enjoyed it. A friend and her husband went and they both hated it as well.

No it isn't a blockbuster hit but it was just what it was supposed to be, a decently cute romantic comedy.

We watched the Punisher: WarZone. Talk about crappy acting. It would be a great spoof movie though

I liked Ray's character in Rome.

He simply picked the wrong movie to act in

Ditto on that. We got it via Netflix. I was ready to stick it in the envelope and send it back barely 20 minutes in, but decided to stick it out to see how it ended. It was awful from start to finish.

Another, and I hate to say this, but "Tale of Desperaux" (edit: oh, wait, that came out in the last two weeks of 2008. well, it ran into 2009 ). Wonderful movie in its visual appeal; the animators just keep getting better and better at this; but the story was ..... "eh". It's of a different studio than the makers of "Toy Story" but could have used a writer's input from those movies. There was just "something" missing
