This 2011 movie used a Rockpile song during the opening credits...

I had to cheat and look it up. I vaguely remembered it from a forgettable film rented on Time Warner but couldn't dredge it up on my own.

Great TP trivia question. . .

In spite of all evidence pointing to Lars Von Trier's Melancholia, I'm going to guess Hall Pass, strictly based on Erik's "forgettable" assessment.

I'll plead the fifth. But as Bad movies go, it was no Bad Santa.

I can count on one hand the movies I saw in 2011, so I'm not even gonna venture a guess.

Given breno's comment, I'm going to guess that Bad Teacher begins with "Teacher Teacher," and hope I win something other than a chance to watch the movie.

Well, that certainly makes sense, but I wouldn't know, because I can't stand Cameron Diaz anymore. It's just one of those things.

Can I ask the new question? Funny this post should pop up now...

I just (this afternoon) saw a recent mainstream movie in which a good portion of the plot revolved around a Teenage Fanclub song. I was surprised. Anyone see/know this film?

My wife and I saw it in an artsy/second-run kind of theater, so I assume it's a month or two old.

I haven't seen that one yet but it looks pretty decent. Do you give it a thumbs up or down?

I enjoyed it. . . Not a knockout, but it was certainly engrossing and worth my time. Charlize Theron and Patton Oswalt are pretty good. Great soundtrack: Replacements, Lemonheads, Fanclub. . .

It was a step above a lot of movies in a similar vein (like Bad Teacher, for example).

Ah, mentioning Charlize Theron and Patton Oswalt is a dead giveaway - "Young Adult"
