Dave: Nice.

27 Dresses (Fox, 2008)

Lisa: Katherine Heigl is 27 times the bridesmaid, never the bride, and her sister is marrying the guy she's secretly in love with. This is the kind of movie that is intended to give hope to single ladies, and provide something for people on first dates to stare at while they try to figure out what to talk about over coffee later.

Dave: I'm not watching it.

Lisa: I do think it's a waste of two hours, but I picked it because I thought you liked romantic comedies. Didn't you once watch The Break-up on TV while I was out with friends?

Dave: Well I think this is something you should watch alone. And not tell me about it.
