Loved your list, Empire!

[Ethan Hunt]

I rather enjoyed your list, Empire. Great choices ( for the most part)

[Plain Old Tele]

Yeah, the book is even greater than the movie!

Quoted for truth. Such a fun book.

[Fancyarcher]

Toy Story 3 is an excellent choice for #1.

[Blankments]

Same #1 as.... You?

Boom baby

[Ethan Hunt]

Shoot, The Social Network definitely would've been on my list had I seen it before I did my list. Mabey even top 5.

[Blankments]

BTW, very good list Empire

[Kalo]

Doing my top 50 soon, should I post it in here or start a new thread? 

[Kalo]

Okay so I feel awful about not finishing the top 100 hottest actresses countdown, I was just going through a ton of stuff, and it just wasn't close enough to my heart to really help much, I am doing somewhat better now, and decided I'm going to quickly do my top 50 favorite films of the first half of the decade. maybe you guys will care maybe not, but I just wanna do it, also wanna show I can follow through with stuff. so here it goes.

 

KALO's Top 50 Favorite Films From 2010-2014! 

[Kalo]

I have seen, if my calculations are correct. 289 films in the first half of the decade not including short films.

 

but there are a few I haven't gotten around to see, maybe they would make this list, maybe not.

 

To name a few 

• Dallas Buyers Club (2013)
• The Spectacular Now (2013)
• The Town (2010)
• The Intouchables (2011)
• Safety Not Guaranteed (2012)
• Two Days One Night (2014)
• The Kings of the Summer (2013)
• Wild (2014)
• Frank (2014)
• A Separation (2011)
• Chronicle (2012)
• End of Watch (2012)
• Looper (2012)

[Kalo]

Note: everything in my top 50 I really really liked and would give at least an 8/10

 

Honorable Mentions: (all 8 out of 10s)

 

55) The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies - 2014

 

 

54) Birdman - 2014

 

 

53) Pacific Rim - 2013

 

 

52) Frozen - 2013

 

 

51) Black Swan - 2010

 

 

 

 

 

[Ethan Hunt]

I'll edit the title

[Kalo]

50) John Carter - 2012 

 

 

 

I found this to be a very underrated film, beautiful set pieces, stunning visuals, and an imaginative story, I mean A Princess of Mars is basically the backbone of all sci-fi, including Star Wars and Avatar being heavily influenced by it. I really liked the pairing of Taylor Kitsch and Lynn Collins, and wish they were in the spotlight more than they are because they are great actor. Could it have been better? yes but if you haven't seen it give it a shot, if you have maybe give it another go. 

 

 

 

[Kalo]

49) Scott Pilgrim Vs The World - 2010

 

 

This movie just rocks, super funny, stylistic and unique with great cameos from dudes like Chris Evans and Brandon Routh. 

 

 

 

[Kalo]

48) Delivery Man - 2013 

 

 

Another Controversial film on my list I'm sure, but I found Delivery man to be very funny, and actually a really touching film, very underrated, and it has Chris Pratt and Cobie Smulders in it, so that's awesome. 

 

 

 

 

[Ethan Hunt]

I never finished Scot Pilgrim

I really liked what I saw though

[Kalo]

47) 12 Years a Slave - 2013

 

 

Not the easiest movie in the world to watch, but Steve McQueen's direction, and an phenomenal cast made it a most intriguing film, really makes me mad at the savagery that man can sink too, not my #1 choice to win the 2013 best picture, but I can understand why it did.
