I have seen literally none of those.

Dude, you ever go to the movies?

I only saw Django and Chronicle on your list. Only Django in the theater. I will definitely see Argo and Cloud Atlas when they come out on BluRay. Probably watch Skyfall too at some point.

I thought Chronicle was ok, nothing too special, but better than anticipated.

[SPX]

Yeah, opinions on Chronicle are pretty mixed, but I liked it quite a bit. If I had to narrow my list to only 10 it's possible it would be one of the ones to go, though.

New Years Eve is stupid.

Why is that?

Dude, you ever go to the movies?

I saw the popcorn flicks this year.

Avengers, MiB 3, Spiderman, Batman 3. Also, Ted.

Cloud Atlas sucked. Where Are Sinister, Looper, Ted, The Raven, 21 Jump Street, The Hunger Games, or Lincoln?

Cloud Atlas was the shit! Fuck you!

Ted, 21 Jump Street and Lincoln get honorable mentions, but I wouldn't drop anything in the list for them. Maybe Ted for The Campaign.

Looper was good, but honestly I was a bit disappointed with it.

The Hunger Games was disappointing. The Raven was okay, but for damn sure not a top contender.

Didn't see Sinister.

Both are good. As is everything else on my list.

Chop chop.

If you appreciated the homage to classic horror represented in Cabin in the Woods you'll like Sinister. Flat out the best horror movie I've seen in a very long time.


Cloud Atlas came off very contrived to Me. As though it was made with the assumption that the audience is dumb enough to pretend they "get the point" when there isn't a point. It's the same handful of actors in jumping time sequences that makes Resevoir Dogs look like it was filmed all in one shot. It was a go nowhere story comprised of five different movies thrown together with no real connection to them. It came off as lazy and cheezy in that regard.

I'll give it a look. I've heard good things. Although I'm really not much into horror movies so the only reason Cabin in the Woods made it on the list is because it's not a conventional horror flick.
