"Get Him to the Greek" was a metric truckload of fun, and I defy anyone not to chuckle down in the sub-cockle area during the chase scene and Diddy's line of "You cannot outrun me! I am black!"

Good times, good times.

The rest of the movies listed, however, are of no use to me, and are dismissed. Turn in your badges and guns.

Seconded on Get Him To The Greek - it's on my list of DVDs to buy - just a fun fun movie.

Get Him To The Greek was memorable for the sheer unseen before Rose Byrne whorish portrayal.

saw edge of darkness even after the m.gibson backlash ONLY because it was filmed in Northampton when i lived there (it was a big to-do during filming though i never ran across any film crews). god, that was an awful movie.

Daybreakers was mildly entertaining (and, lord, i still love me some hawke) but it could have easily been better.

have brooklyn's finest on my netflix instant cause a buddy of mine worked on it

Get Him To The Greek has actually been on several Best of 2010 lists I've seen. The movie was hilarious, lots of people loved the hell out of it, it does not fit in on this list.

When I visited my brother and sister for Christmas they both hammered me with repeated "You have to see Get Him to the Greek, but only after you've seen Forgetting Sarah Marshall" lessons. After they physically made me watch Elf, which was just bad, I don't think I'm in any hurry to take their advice.

I watched "Get Him to the Greek" while at the dentist yesterday. Miles above MacGruber, which I couldn't even sit through.

Todd,

I was really skeptical about Get Him to The Greek but laughed out loud through quite a bit of it. There is absolutely no need to see Forgetting Sarah Marshall beforehand though. There's only the tiniest of tie-ins between the two.

Hmph. Well, how about that? I, too, liked Get Him to the Greek (not as much as Forgetting Sarah Marshall), but the box-office returns and the relative lack of buzz suggested that it was given little thought. I guess it's done well on DVD. I stand corrected. I therefore replace Get Him to the Greek with Our Family Wedding. Surely, no one remembers that (despite its $20 million gross, and the presence of Forrest Whitaker and America Ferrera)?

if only that tie-in was a kristen bell-rose byrne lesbian love-fest

...and the heart of my pantal region grew three sizes this day...

Roger Ebert has Secretariat on his Top 10 of the year. I blame senility.

I was starting to think my fellow Pajabian's were going loony. I did not see Get Him To The Greek anywhere on the list. Then I read Dustin's comment and now it all makes sense. Just to add, I want a furry wall.

Get Him to the Greek The Losers

[I'm no fan of Get Him to the Greek, but seriously -- The Losers (along with She's Out of My League) was a film SO unremarkable that I couldn't bring myself to care enough about whether I liked it or not.]

I second Paultera. Whose family wedding?

Speaking of Ebert and senility... He had Knowing as one of his top 10 either last year or the previous year (whenever that was released). I watched it solely because Ebert recommended it. Truly an awful film. Since then, I've trusted his critical faculties much less than I ever thought possible. His blog is still amazing, though.

I actually watched "Our Family Wedding" and it deserves to be here just for the sheer fact that Carlos Muthafucking Mencia (who I despise) is in it. And both Whitaker and Ferrera's agents need to be fired and/or shot because iow in the he'll don't you run for the hills when you see that Carlos Muthafucking Mencia is attached to a script??!!

That POS movie was memorable for it's atrocious depiction of the Mexican culture. And for the damn goat in the restroom because in all my 29 years of life on this earth as a Mexican-American woman I have yet to have a damn LIVE goat near my home.

We usually had the thing nice and deceased by the time it got to us!!

So...great choice, Rowles!

Also, Academy Award Winning Actor Forest Whitaker was in this and I had never felt more embarrassed for an actor.

I didn't see Takers, but I saw a few trailers and my initial reaction to it was "So, essentially it's the love child of Ocean's 11, 12, 13, and 14 and every blaxpoitation movie out there."

Am I the only person who HATED Get Him to the Greek? I am a big Jonah Hill apologist and even I couldn't stand it. It had no idea what movie it wanted to be. Broad comedy, heartfelt addiction film, movie involving a child that in no way ever involved the child... It was a mess.

Diddy and Rose Byrne were awesome though. "I'm talking about my asshole."

Daybreakers, IMO, is a good film. Not anything spectacular, but good. If anything it isn't a sparkly pussification of vampires like Twilight is.
I was supposed to go see Charlie St. Cloud with a girl, but we hit traffic on the way there and saw Dinner for Schmucks instead.
In retrospect, if we saw St. Cloud we could basically have had protected sex and gotten away with it. I am stupid.

I agree totally with number one. Got it on Netflix, removed it from the sleeve, watched 10 minutes, put it back in the sleeve, walked out to the mailbox and sent it back.
Oh did I mention the part where I nodded off twice? TEN MINUTES!! It would have been more riveting if they had filmed Wesley Snipes taxes being done. What, too soon?

I agree that Daybreakers was entertaining and that it could have very easily been better. I saw a lot of potential in it and hate that it is on a "most forgettable" list. Makes me sad.

I'm one of the "only saw Daybreakers from this list" people, and I thought it was not bad, but could have been better.

The rest, well... shit, I don't even remember what they are now, and I'm not scrolling up.

I'm very sorry, I arrived too late for Jim Doggie, he starved to death in less than a day. All that was left of him was a freakishly large scrolling finger and a few despairing sticky notes reading:
"10. Switches?
9. Charlie Something?
8. Edge of Darkness
7. A Wedding?
Damnit"
