Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

Like everyone else, there is lots of stuff I didn't get to see in 2010, so the list is far from official.

1. Black Swan
2. Piranha 3D
3. How To Train Your Dragon
4. Inception
5. Love and Other Drugs

Honorable Mention: Buried, Get Him To The Greek

Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

My top 11, because picking 5 seems impossible. I'd say the first half of the list is not in any real order.

The Social Network
Inception
Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World
Toy Story 3
The Fighter
True Grit
The Town
Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows part 1
The A-Team
Buried
Tangled

Winter's Bone and Black Swan just missed the list, mostly because while I appreciated the filmmaking at work, they were both rather grueling to watch and not something I am eager to revisit. The ones that made the list I can see myself watching again and again.

Other honourable mentions: Despicable Me, The Ghost Writer, The Kids Are All Right and Kick-Ass.

Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

at everyone who can't just pick 5. It's not hard, just stop typing.

1. How to Train Your Dragon
2. Inception
3. Scott Pilgrim vs. the World
4. The A-Team
5. Tangled

I honestly didn't like either Social Network or Black Swan enough to make my top 5. Hope to watch The Fighter some time this week.

Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

Hrm... I've seen so few 2010 movies. Sad. No "True Grit", no "The King's Speach", "Winter's Bone", "The Fighter", "The Town"... at least, not yet. But of what I've seen, I've really found this to be top of the food chain:

1. The Social Netowrk
2. Black Swan
3. Toy Story 3
4. Temple Grandin (made for HBO, but better than most theatrical movies I've seen)
5. Scott Pilgrim vs. The World

Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

It almost seems as if Airbender was put on someone's list just to get a reaction. Such a dreadful film on so many levels.

As of now . . .

5. I Am Love
4. How To Train Your Dragon
3. Scott Pilgrim vs The World (would be higher if not for Cera, the 1 big flaw of the film)
2. Never Let Me Go
1. Black Swan

Haven't seen True Grit and quite a few others yet.

I thought Temple Grandin was fantastic. I was really happy that Claire Danes (and the movie) won Emmys.

I don't even read the 'my picks are just too important I must post a long list' posts.

Re: Your Top 5 of 2010.

Social Network
Inception
127 Hours
Scott Pilgrim
How to Train Your Dragon

..I keep wondering whether Toy Story 3 should be on there, but I had my theater experience ruined by an idiot who kept taking flash photography of his kids during the movie, and then tried to pick a fight with me when I called him on it. It's all I can think about when TS3 comes to mind.
