God, I watched so few movies this year, less than 10 I think. My favourites are The Cabin in The Woods and Holy Motors, but only now I'm catching up with the awards season, I haven't watched any of the nominated movies yet, I've been excited about Moonrise Kingdom and Life of Pi for months.

[The Dark Alfred]

Piranha 3DD had funny moments. It was a huge letdown, but a few scenes made me laugh. Taken 2 awful from start to finish.

I dont think the * rating look too small unless you're on your phone

Still have quite a bit to see, so my list will be worked on a good amount into 2013 as well. Strangely enough, I'm getting This Means War and Red Tails in the mail today via Netflix, so it appears my bottom of 2012 may be getting some new additions pretty soon.
