You and I went to the movies. (I went to the movies.)

I hear it misused by some fairly intelligent folks.

Wouldn't you just say "We went to the movies" (Here 'you' and 'I' is being used as a subject.
AND
"It doesn't matter to us/either of us" (whereas here it's being used as an object and this is what determines which pronoun you use).

If I've missed the point completely (entirely possible), let me know immediately.
