Re: Your Official Top Ten of 2013
 

Yep. I really haven't seen crap this year.

First Draft, gonna see how this changes after I watch more in the next few weeks (I've only seen a handful of movies this year).

1. Gravity
2. Prisoners
3. Side Effects
4. Elysium
5. The Way Way Back
6. We're The Millers
7. The Wolverine
8. Now You See Me
9. Spring Breakers
10. Rapture-palooza

The only other movies I've seen this year: The Internship, Grown Ups 2, Man of Steel, Monsters University, World War Z, The Heat, Scenic Route, Iron Man 3, The Hangover Pt 3, Pacific Rim, This is the End, The World's End and Identity Thief.

Will be playing catch up at some point and then re-evaluating this shitastic list. Good times.

Re: Your Official Top Ten of 2013
 

I can give my top 5 so far:

Mud
Gravity
The Place Beyond the Pines
Pacific Rim
The Conjuring

Re: Your Official Top Ten of 2013
 

I still haven't seen a lot of films that I think will crack my top ten but I'll list where I stand right now.

1. Gravity
2. Mud
3. Oblivion
4. A Place Beyond the Pines
5. The Wolverine
6. The Conjuring
7. Hungar Games: Catching Fire
8. The World's End
9. Iron Man 3
10. Now You See Me

I'm guessing after the next few weeks everything from 5 to 10 will probably drop off my list completely.

Re: Your Official Top Ten of 2013
 

I feel dumb now that I missed some. Oblivion, The Wolverine, The World's End, Iron Man 3 would probably all make my list too.

Re: Your Official Top Ten of 2013
 

Not sure I can do a Top 10 despite probably seeing 20 or more films this year. There are four movies that I saw that i think merit particular praise and are movies that still resonate with me and movies I remember.

1. Before Midnight - I love all three films and I really really want to catch up on them again in 9 years. Such a perfect movie for two of the deepest and most real characters ever put on film, with a snapshot of their lives that seems not to be a story but a chronicle of real life.

2. Blue Jasmine - I am not a big Woody Allen fan, but I think that this is one of his very very best films with an insanely great performance from Cate Blanchett. Another movie that feels shockingly real.

3. Only God Forgives - Kind of on the other end of the spectrum, a movie that seems like nothing in the real world but I found it to be completely engrossing and mesmerizing. The police captain to me is one of the more memorable and intriguing characters in a film I have seen, somewhat similar to the Chigurh character in NCFOM, but a more compelling and believable version of the unstoppable force that people felt associated with Chigurh

4. Prisoners A great film, that took a TV movie subject and setup and elevated to an incredibly high level. Terrifically acted and compelling it is only brought down a little bit by the way too predictable Hollywood twist at the end.
