The Muppets had a strange effect on me. Anytime I watched it I walked round with a smile on my face for days afterwards.

The Dark Knight Rises: In my opinion, better than The Dark Knight but I know pretty much no-one agrees with me.

The Avengers has taken up most of my movie viewing spare time. 4 times in the cinema, twice on the plane going to Canada and twice on the way back and now multiple viewings on Bluray.

Honourable mentions to: The Desecedants, Moonrise Kingdom, Looper, Silver Linings Playbook, Skyfall, The Pirates! In An Adventure With Scientists!, Cabin In The Woods.

The Guilty Pleasure Award goes to Here Comes The Boom. A shit movie but entertaining.

Shame(it was realesed here in January so can I still say this?) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shame_%282011_film%29

The Raid http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Raid:_Redemption

Argo

Lawless

Dark Knight Rises

Shame is probably my favourite film of the year with Lawless being a close second.

Honourable mentions to Sightseers, Killer Joe and End Of Watch.

Some film blog guy made this video for his top 25 films of the year. I've not seen most of them but the video is nice at least.

55071466

I don't ever really see that many films in the year they were released. The ones I do see tend to be the better known ones, like James Bond or Batman, that a lot of people talk about and I don't want to miss out on. Other films I'll get a hold of a while later once a few friends have recommended it.

The Muppets was a terrible movie imho.

I thought Lawless was pretty decent and TOM Hardy has generally won the Hollywood race this year with him performances.

I saw 7 psychopaths last week and thought i was alright, much better than expected.

I know his first name is Edward, but he uses Tom for his stage name so :p

Your opinion on The Muppets is invalid for saying imho.

From the top of my head I'll go for:

1. Seven Psychopaths

2. Argo

3. The Muppets

4. The Avengers

5. Killer Joe

6. Lawless

7. Dredd

8. Looper

9. The Raid

10. Frankenweenie

I've probably forgotten about some films I prefer
