I saw 'Seven Pyschopaths' last week at the San Diego film festival, I thought it was awful, loud, obnoxious, cheap, crude, obvious, tired, cliche, I didn't think it worked as a self referential/commentary like 'Cabin in the Woods', at all, and it certainly didn't work on it's own. I loved 'In Bruges', and I like Colin Farrell, but this wasn't good, Mcdonahugh went 'Hollywood', bigger budget, and lost all the refinement and black humor of 'In Bruges', when characters in that movie said something funny, racist, insulting, it was hilarious, in this it's just cheap, ugly shock value. So, I can say, that for me, that shyt was not anywhere near a best movies list, and probably at the top of the worst of 2012.

It's been forgotten about but I really enjoyed Chronicle.

To be honest, the only movies I saw this year in theater were Chronicle and The Dark Knight Rises. Enjoyed both.

Damn I have yet to see Looper, End of Watch, Moonrise Kingdom and the Avengers.

I saw "We Need To Talk About Kevin" late last year, but it was on my 2011 list. Saw it again a couple months ago, liked it even more.

Still want to see Ruby Sparks and Liberal Arts.


And this may very well cost me my man card, but my sister drug me to "Pitch Perfect" today...and I can't front. It's a pretty fukking good movie :laugh: More than anything, it's hilarious. I mean, it's certainly formulaic and the plot doesn't include a single surprise...but it's a damn entertaining movie. Very cleverly written...and the music....:obama:
