    I was convinced Kung Fu Panda 2 would be absolutely awful, after I wasn't all that impressed with the original. Unlike most kids movie sequels though, they seemed to go the more serious route rather than a completely harmless villain.

    Despicable Me was definitely another movie that was a lot better than I expected. I think I just have low initial expectations of children's movies after almost all the ones I watched growing up were terrible.

    I don't even know what to think of Warm Bodies. I guess it depends on if they go full out spending every second of airtime parodying Twilight, or if they actually try to carve interesting characters and a story out of it.

    If it's like Twilight or a parody, atleast it has humour and it seems to be entertaining from what I saw on that trailer, not saying Twilight doesn't have that but ya'know...

    Not the most recent movie I've seen, but I watched Life of Pi not too long ago. Was amazing. It's competing with V for Vendetta for my #1 movie of all time.

    It's been quite a while since I've watched it, but The Man From Earth is another fantastic movie. The whole movie takes place in a living room and is a discussion between a "caveman" who's lived for thousands of years and who is talking about it with his friends who don't realize he's talking about himself. This one takes my #3 spot. This one may not be for everyone. The entire movie is dialogue in the living room, so if you're not enjoying the conversation, you're not going to like this.

    I debated for a long time but I wasn't sure I could bring myself to watch that movie. It just seemed so...well, it reminded me of Hatchet, a movie I saw when I was too young to see.

    I can kind of see where you would see that. I'd give it a try though. It really is a good movie. If you do decide to watch it, I'd wait for the the blu ray version. Anything less doesn't do it justice. It's one of the most visually stunning and beautiful movies I've seen. And the soundtrack is absolutely fantastic. In terms of visuals, it's on Avatar's level.

    Life of Pi was an awesome movie, but hardly the best of 2012. It's definitely up there, though. I'd say Django has it beat.
    The structure and storytelling of the movie also reminded me of something else, but I just can't put my finger on it...

    I've definitely seen something like it before.

    It is definitely worth watching in my opinion, I loved it

    Not a movie but I just finally got around to starting game of thrones season 1 this week and it is as awesome as everyone has been telling me.
