Meant to watch Sucker Punch because Shiny Objects, never got around to it.

Thought Rango was amusing and cute.

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

Kung Fu Panda 2 was pretty awesome.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

I saw a few good movies, but nothing that blew my mind.

I saw The Debt, Tintin, Hugo, and Sherlock Holmes 2.  Of those, I have to say that Hugo was the only real letdown.  Pretty good year for movies, honestly!

Weird seeing so much apathy and apperently a lot of flicks missed by people. Captain America was pretty amazing. Super was one of the most unique takes on the super hero thing (and dark as hell) though I can't fault anyone for not seeing it as it was released direct to VoD/DVD. X-men First Class was surprisingly entertaining considering how bad X-men 3 and the Wolverine movie were. Super 8 was the best Steven Spielberg style adventure flick in like a decade - without actually being directed by Spielberg (although he was producer). I also enjoyed most of Thor although a lot of the human supporting cast was unnecessary and obnoxious.

I might be a nerd, oh dear.

I will say, the top 10 grossing films of the year are universally terrible. The only upside of that chart is that Transformers 3 blessedly did not take first place.

Oh, crumb... I did also see Captain America!  I'd forgotten about that.

Yeah, that was another "meh" movie on my book.  I'm just really not that much of a superhero movie fangirl.

Oh yeah, I also saw The Green Lantern. Had potential, failed miserably.

LOOK GUYS IT'S SEXUAL TENSION SEE GUYS ARE YOU CATCHING THIS?

Also saving the girl and then picking her up bridestyle is totally not a dead giveaway that you know her. Normal superheroes do that for all the people they save.

Saw quite a few movies, not sure which are from this year.

Anyways, Thor was fine, a brainless little timesink, Capitain America was pretty much the same, except a bit more complex in my opinion. Transformers 3 was all that is bad with Hollywood and current movie trends mashed into a single movie. Sucker Punch was awesome on a stick, Immortals was that too but in a different way (or the same, both are trippy as hell). Super was pretty awesome too, quite broootal. Paul and Your Highness were very fun, both in an old school comedy kind of way. Super 8 was ok I guess, fun but the charachters were idiots :S

Oh and the new X-Men was pretty sweet, hope the sequels don't dissappoint.

I distinctly remember enjoying both Captain America and the prequel to The Thing, both were excellent. I also watched the last installment to Harry Potter, but I don't think I appreciated it since I know nothing of the story.

Also saw the Sitter, wish I didn't. It's terrible.
