CoolioD1 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 It would be awesome to see a little movie like that make the list, but I doubt it, even though it was obviously the funniest movie of 2010. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SchumacherFTW Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 Have to admit, it would be interesting to see people's opinions this time next year for 2011. Would Drive still be on top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted January 29, 2012 Share Posted January 29, 2012 (edited) I've never even heard of Four Lions RENT IT ASAP! You won't regret it.To pique your interest, it's a film about a small group of utterly inept amateur terrorist wannabes in England.Seriously, it's such a funny movie, masterful dark humor.I also advocate for people getting onto the train for The Ghost Writer.

Gopher Posted January 30, 2012 Author Share Posted January 30, 2012 I never really got the love for Easy A. It's a passable movie (Emma Stone makes most movies better), which I guess is all a high school comedy needs to be heralded as an instant classic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noctis Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Merely passable? It's one of the funniest films of last year. "Maybe you should embroider a red A on your wardrobe, you abominable tramp." "Maybe you should get a wardrobe, you abominable twat." LMFAO.

rockNrollaDIM Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Easy A definitely holds up on repeat viewings (I think the parents are hysterical). It just missed the cut for my top 15, I could probably interchange it with either of my last two picks.

BK007 Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 I never really got the love for Easy A. It's a passable movie (Emma Stone makes most movies better), which I guess is all a high school comedy needs to be heralded as an instant classic.Only worth seeing it for Emma, otherwise, it's indistinguishable from your typical teen movie. It hasn't the consistency to challenge Mean Girls and I felt in the end it was weaker or comparable to the likes of John Tucker Must Die and whatever else has come out in the genre. Nothing special.Having said that, there are a couple of films I just didn't like this year that were praised, Scott Pilgrim, Black Swan, the Town for example. The Town was the best of those three, and I still felt it didn't do much to stand out. BS was pretentious and SP, even moreso, which is saying something. Such an awful script masquerading intelligence, freshness and creativity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Easy A was good, but It's also kind of forgettable. Mean Girls held up much better for me.Oh, and Blue Valentine FTW. Edited January 31, 2012 by Spaghetti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted January 31, 2012 Author Share Posted January 31, 2012 I actually prefer reflecting on movies a year out like this, now that we're away from all the critic and award and box office hype. I wanted to love The Town, but it's just a well made genre exercise. It's a solid film, but nothing about it stands out. Now, Gone Baby Gone, on the other hand...Scott Pilgrim suffers from narrative and pacing issues, because you're fitting seven books into one movie. But it's fun. I've now seen it three more times on HBO and I'm not tired of it. Black Swan was Blu-Ray worthy. I still love that movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
