Re: Your favorites/best of 2010 so far (first 6 months)

I've only seen 7 of this years movies, so far. The ones I have ranked above ***:

Toy Story 3 - ****
Iron Man 2 - ***3/4
She's Out of My League - ***1/2
Shutter Island - ***1/4

Seeing The Book of Eli and Sex and the City 2 today. I have a feeling one will make the above list .

Here is what I've watched this year so far and their rank.

1. Kick-Ass: Probably wont be beat this year.
2. The A-Team: Really surprised at how fun it was to see this.
3. Alice in Wonderland: Usually not a Depp/Burton person but enjoyed this
4. Shutter Island: Very good movie, great story
5. Iron Man 2: Not a let down, just not as good to me as the 4 above
6. Date Night: I'm a mark for Steve Carell.
7. She's Out of My League: The best friend annoyed the hell out of me but enjoyed the 2 main characters enough to ignore him
8. Edge of Darkness: Had some good moments.
9. The Crazies: Simple, yet effective. Still one of my fav trailers of the year with Mad House
10. The Wolfman: Didn't dislike it, just needed more cowbell, i mean wolfman
11. Hot Tub Time Machine: I think i ranked this last due to someone trying to convince me this was as good/funny as Hangover

It just occurred to me that it is July and I have only seen one movie in a theater this year ... so I guess I have to vote for Iron Man 2.

The only thing I saw in the theatre that I felt was worth the admission price was "Never Let Me Go". Awesome film.
