I just couldn't get into it.

Oh I love Burn After Reading

But I realize a lot of people hated it. Its not for everyone that's for sure.

I haven't watched Burn After Reading in a while but I do remember thinking it was alright. It's probably my least favorite Coen Brother movie though.

Critics rated the movie rotten, with 53% while the regular audience liked it at a rate of 72%. I'm not a critic, I'm just a regular guy that likes to be entertained.
I really liked Safe House. I had it figured out pretty early, but it was still entertaining.

It was "ok," but I really thought I'd like it more than I did. Brad Pitt was great though.

The Hangover Part II
Bridesmaids (never saw it, but have heard nothing but rave reviews about it)
Little Fockers (I'll admit... this one is a stretch, but it was decent)
She's Out of My League (again, never saw this one, but heard a number of good reviews; not quite as many as Bridesmaids tho)
Date Night (not great, but certainly entertaining)
Youth in Revolt (this movies was HILARIOUS! One of 2010's best kept secrets)
Toy Story 3 (yes... I did)
Kick-Ass
Due Date
LMAO!

Shouldn't be surprised coming from a Twilight fan.

I found Due Date hilarious... I know it was a mixed bag in terms of hate or love it, but I definitely thought it had some great moments.

I thought Due Date was alright. I wasn't crazy about it but I thought it had some funny parts like a lot of the comedies that have been released in the last few years.

It comes out the 16th.

So far it's getting 100%. Only 11 reviews so far, but still good to see.

I have two passes to see it on Thursday but I'm not sure my wife is able to go because of a prior commitment. It is also first come first served so you have to get there early and wait, possibly.

I'd totally invite myself to that but that's the day I leave on my Illinois journey

That's the plan.
As for the ongoing funny movie debate, Hall Pass was pretty good. Not a super comedy or in the same league as The Hangover, though.

Between Bigdaddy, Marty, and Scarlet (order intended) , I am pretty sure that we could have an epic movie review rating system.

Ha not sure what the order means but this isn't a fair statement. I'm well aware most of the movies I go watch aren't that great.

Just the shear volume of movie you see would put you on the list. Marty gets on the list for his early previews and Scarlet gets on the list to let us know what not to watch.
