			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few weeks ago when I was bored on a Friday night (actually it was the Thursday before the 4th of July holiday so it just <em>felt</em> like a Friday, especially after recently being in New Orleans) I decided to rent a movie. It was the second time I attempted to rent a Pay-Per-View movie in my new place. I had previously tried to rent <em>He&#8217;s Just Not That Into You</em> a few weeks before this, but something went haywire with Dish Network and it didn&#8217;t work. Thankfully all I had to do was call and they refunded my money. Little did I know that Dish Network was trying to save me the PAIN and SUFFERING of watching this fucking trainwreck of a motion picture.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t have sophisticated movie tastes. (Or sophisticated music tastes since I found out this weekend that I like the same songs as eight year old girls.) I like entertaining movies. I love romantic comedies, I like action movies, I like comedies, especially slapstick humor, like people falling down. I will really watch anything as long as I&#8217;m entertained.</p>
<p>So I figured that even though <em>He&#8217;s Just Not That Into You</em> got some bad reviews, I figured it couldn&#8217;t be that bad. I mean, it&#8217;s like an all-star freaking cast. And really, Ben Affleck and Bradley Cooper? What could be so wrong with two hours of staring at manly eye candy?</p>
<p>EVERYTHING COULD BE WRONG WITH IT.</p>
<p>It was a good thing I was drinking when I was watching it, otherwise I might have done myself bodily harm, like stabbing myself in the ear drums so I wouldn&#8217;t have to listen to it anymore. Because I HAD to finish it. I paid like four fucking dollars for it.</p>
<p>So I did what any normal, drunk single girl does on a Pseudo-Friday night, I took to Twitter.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-1967 aligncenter" title="movie1" src="http://fullofsnark.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/movie1.jpg" alt="movie1" width="359" height="214" /></p>
<p>This was about 20 minutes into the movie. The character that Ginnifer Goodwin played, she needs better friends. I could never let my girlfriends be that stupid. I could never watch them act like complete nutjobs when it comes to men. I would have to intervene. I would have to tell them &#8220;You&#8217;re doing it WRONG. So, so wrong.&#8221; (Says the girl watching the movie alone on a Friday night.)</p>
<p>Sadly, it didn&#8217;t get much better.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-1968 aligncenter" title="movie2" src="http://fullofsnark.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/movie2.jpg" alt="movie2" width="377" height="167" /></p>
<p>I understand the premise of the movie and I do think that the book probably has some good points. I mean, really, we&#8217;ve all been like these women, haven&#8217;t we? We&#8217;ve been needy, called or emailed when we shouldn&#8217;t. We&#8217;ve supported our friends, saying things like &#8220;I&#8217;m sure he is just busy.&#8221; Or &#8220;I bet something came up and he hasn&#8217;t had a chance to call.&#8221; I get all of these things, I understand that these things are wrong and we don&#8217;t like to face facts.</p>
<p>But on the other hand, your heart always rules over your head. And it&#8217;s something we all have to do and experience to realize &#8220;yep, that book was right. He was so not into me.&#8221; Because until we figure it out for ourselves, it doesn&#8217;t matter. Barack Obama could tell us that we had to do it one way, yet we&#8217;d still rebel like a bunch of grounded teenagers and do the exact opposite.</p>
<p>This movie, though, was just so over the top. And Bradley Cooper, YOU ARE A DOUCHEBAG! (I mean, in this movie. I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;re actually quite lovely in real life.) (Scratch that, <em>US Weekly</em> tells me that indeed you might be kind of a douche. That must have been an easy role to play then, wasn&#8217;t it?)</p>
<p>But really, what do I know? I mean, I&#8217;m sitting here on my couch having a conversation with my two cats. And apparently it is quite one-sided since they won&#8217;t tell me how their day was. I think they&#8217;re still pissed I went away for the weekend.</p>
<p>So tell me, have you seen <em>He&#8217;s Just Not That Into You</em>? What did you think?</p>
