I'd like to say I'm surprised New Moon placed at No.1, but as the person who suggested Twilight should have received the Best Picture Oscar, I'm sadly not :uhoh:

 

Anyway, no chance of me listing every single movie I've seen this year, or even the ones that came out this year, so I'll just go with a Top 10:

 

1. Martyrs

2. District 9

3. Star Trek

4. Up

5. Coraline

6. The Hangover

7. Moon

8. Paranormal Activity

9. Zombieland

10. Drag Me To Hell

 

A very decent year for movies looking back.

 

I'm trying so hard not to comment on the fact that Up is No.63 in Daniel's list .. look at some of the stuff it's below!! :(

Yep, I certainly am .. though Twilight as Film Of The Decade manages to beat the Best Picture Oscar suggestion on the ridiculous scale so well done :spidy:

4. District 9

5. Up

6. The Hangover

7. Terminator Salvation

I've seen too many movies this year. Now i could document them like i do with books (it's a throwback to uni where you write down every book you used for an essay and i just decided to list all books read-very odd) but i don't think i'll try that. too much paper :YAHOO:

 

So the movies that i really liked watching this year are

Avatar (fantastic- trying to convince people to come to the cinema to see it again!)

Law Abiding Citizen

The Ugly Truth (i have now joined the Gerard Butler admirers!)

Star Trek (yay!!!!! love Zachary Quinto as Spock)

biggest let downs

 

revenge of the fallen (awful, to long and full of dick jokes)

angels and demons ( predictable)

taking of pelham 123 (boring, lazy and predictable plot)

wolverine ( not bad but disappointing, it should of been amazing, felt more like a b movie with a big budget however better than x3)

crank 2 (total crap, so bad)

 

 

3. Inglorious Basterds - one of Tarrantino's best. Nein! Nein! Nein!. Oh, Yes! Yes! Yes!

 

I thought that film was a load of rubbish XD My friend actually feel asleep in the cinema lol

 

 

i loved it, the tavern scene was just AMAZING, but it is a long film with loads of sub titles, more than half of the run time and set in an alternate timeline once upon a time past) so if either of those bother you, your not gonna like it lol

I loved it, but it could of done with more of the basterds being basterds and more of till schweigers character (spelt wrong) , but still htought this was a very well made and enjoyable film, and again that tavern scene was brilliantly staged and acted.

Criminal. Loved it.

 

The film that broke my heart in 2009 was Terminator: Salvation. It sucked huge cybernetic balls.

Am I not shocked you said that. People expected something that I personally thought woudl not be happening. I look forward to the next two installments. I loved it.

i liked the terminator salvation movie but it didnt feel like the other terminator films ( yes even 3 which has a great ending), it felt more like a spin off, if you take away the arnie cameo and the conner character, it was an ok movie but im hoping for better things in the next one and the more traditional terminator endo skeletons to be more abundant, but they need to include arnie somehow, it doesnt feel like the terminator with out him

Whilst Arnie is still Governor of California, he can't act apparently. Not sure if this is a personal decision, or the facthe is in public office (this would make more sense).
