[Kalo]

I never finished Scot Pilgrim

I really liked what I saw though

 

I watched it like 3 times in a two week period when I first saw it. finish it.

46) Kick-Ass - 2010

 

 

The Title is pretty self explanatory, this movie kick's Ass. oh and there's also hit girl.

45) - The Lego Movie - 2014 

 

 

The first animated film to make my list, but certainly not the last. This movie is super funny, like if you put against most direct comedies it would be funnier than a lot of them, Morgan Freeman, Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks and Will Arnett prove that voice acting can in fact elevate a film, even one about little lego toys.

44) Boyhood - 2014

 

 

Extremely unique film about- well life pretty much, and growing up and stuff.

43) The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey - 2012

 

 

This was definitely one of my most anticipated films of the decade, is it as good as Lord of the Rings? no, not even close, is it a bit uneven at parts, and does it have some strangely fake looking CGI? yes, but the parts that work really work, The Dwarfs entrance to bilbo's house and the "riddles in the dark" scene felt like they were the pages of J.R.R. Tolkien's book coming to life, and you couldn't have gotten a better Biblo than Martin Freeman. so it makes it's has a place on my list.

42) True Grit - 2010

 

 

An excellent remake to a prior film, that well I didn't really pay much attention to to be honest, Jeff Bridges is outstanding, as well as Hailee Steinfeld, she completely nailed her role and for a first timer that is even more impressive, a great return to the western genre.

41) Edge of Tomorrow - 2014

 

 

Action sci-fi at it's best, immensely enjoyable film, upon rewatch the third act felt a bit tedious at parts, but still an excellent film.

 

 

 

[Kalo]

40) Star Trek Into Darkness - 2013

 

 

Not quite the masterpiece that J.J's "Star Trek" was, but still pretty awesome with an outstanding (once again) cast. it had maybe a bit more thrills than depth this time around, but immensely enjoyable none the less. I am very excited for Star Trek Beyond!

[The Futurist]

"It s a miracle."

 

"There are no such things."

 

 

[Spidey Freak]

That soundtrack is out of this world.

 

Btw, have you read the graphic novel series? It is super fun and I think you will love it more than the film itself. Regardless, SPvtW is definitely the most adept single film adaptation of an entire series ever.

39) Argo - 2012

 

 

Great cast, fantastic direction true story that actually

 has a happy ending?

, and it has movie making stuff, and star wars toys. not to mention awesome hairdos.  

 

 

[DAJK]

Ugh I want to like all of these but that would take up all my likes! Really like the list so far Kalo

[Kalo]

38) X-Men: First Class - 2011

 

 

Unlike some movies, this one seems to get better with every rewatch, and that "Rage and Serenity" scene gets me everytime, James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender are insanely good together here.
