Chronicle
Jeff Who Lives At Home
The Avengers
The Dark Knight Rises
Prometheus
Samsara
The Perks of Being a Wallflower

[Rake2204]

I only saw three films in theatres in 2012. I enjoyed all three but here's my order:

1. Django Unchained
2. The Dark Knight Rises
3. Lincoln

I wanted to see Argo and The Master but just did not get around to it. I'm assuming there's a few others I cannot think of off hand as well.

Almost 3/4 of the movies released in 2012 are already on DVD. Did you see any of them on DVD?

Oops, forgot. I saw TDKR. 6.5/10 for that.

I just haven't had time to watch movies much. But it's mostly because I used to rent DVDs a lot when we had 2 Hollywood videos and a Blockbuster in town but now there's only 1 video store in my town and it's located right in the middle of the car dealing district, too much traffic.

Unless it's in the theaters, I most likely won't watch a movie. I'm still not used to streaming movies, so rarely go that route.

I guess I'm one of the very very few who misses video stores.

3. The Avengers

Don't tell that to the Avengers groupies. Just watched it a few days ago and I can't help but think it looks like a television show. The characters, dialogue, action scenes, I appreciated even more. But the cinematography and production design is ****ing terrible. Whedon's work on TV carried to feature films.

I did not. I kind of lost my DVD lifeline when my video store closed. There's Red Box, but I tend to opt for streaming Netflix instead, which tends to not carry a lot of brand new releases.

Avengers was fun, but I barely made it though a second viewing of it.
i've watched TDKR about four times and still wouldnt mind watching again.

Yeah, Netflix is pretty bad these days.

Looper was fantastic (as was Skyfall).

Dredd is probably an honorary mention for me as well.

[red1]

avengers
looper
dark knight rises
21 jump street
spiderman

[Qwyjibo]

So far I'd say it's:

Skyfall
The Dark Knight Rises
Killing Them Softly
Ruby Sparks
End of Watch

Just missing the cut: Looper

Still planning to watch: Argo, Django Unchained, The Hobbit, Lincoln, Hitchcock, The Impossible

Critically overrated (IMO, of course): Moonrise Kingdom, Zero Dark Thirty
