1. Cave Of Forgotten Dreams

2. Bridesmaids

3. Beginners

4. Midnight in Paris

5. Tree of Life

6. The Trip

7. Tabloid

8. Final Destination 5 3D

Edit...

I really wanted to fit Hobo With A Shotgun in there somewhere :(

lol ur list is funny

umm i am so bad at remembring whats recent and whats not ok let me see

number 1 is obvioulsy drive

actally i havent seen enough of the movies that i really am excited about to judge yet!!! because block buster is shut down and i dont have net flix here in canada so whatever i guess

Also, technically, "13 Assasins" was last year. If that was 2011, it might be my #1.

And yes. I didn't include Drive. There are still a few more that I liked better.

Kings Speach was technically 2011, wasn't it? That was fucking amazing.

Edit.

Nope. That came out last Xmas.

I've seen maybe 3 movies from 2011. None of them were very good.

Tree of Life

Hanna

...there may have been another but I don't remember it.

I really look forward to seeing Drive based on the Pusher movies and Broson/

dont u like valhalla rising ??

I went to the cinema once this year, with the missus to see the Pirates of the Caribbean 3D movie. It was largely forgettable, but slightly funnier than the previous in the series.

So that has to be by number one.

Next year however; looking forward to Prometheus, Dark Knight Rises (2012 or 2013??) and potentially Sin City 2...

i tried to watch it but found it slow. I only got like 5 minutes in. my mother and father have said it was a good movie that i would liek.

well its very slow lol and it gets slower

but its a master piece imo

from wikipedia:

"The year 2011 is notable for containing the release of the most film sequels in a single year, at 28 sequels."

I had absolutely no idea another Pirate of the Caribbean was released.

Insidious is my favorite movie from 2011

has Ebert be ? always a cliche

my favorite was definitely Midnight in Paris. A+

I also liked the new Harry Potter film.

Also kind of enjoyed Horrible Bosses, Paul, Arthur, and Hangover part 2 as guilty pleasures, but I would not really watch any of them again by choice.

other than that it was mostly just shit that I was dragged along to that was terrible, but there were probably a few good ones I just didn't get to see.

mostly watched old films and french comedies this year lol.

Kill List, the end is either genius or ridiculous, I'll have to see it again.

Drive was cool.

Senna, mainly for his reaction when he won in Brazil.

That's about it really, I've stuck to watching old horror films this year.

I think cave of forgotten dreams was 2010 too, but whatever! good film tho.

Tintin is the only thing I care about and I haven't even seen it yet.

Drive *****

Limitless ***

Green Hornet **

The Adjustment Bureau **

Battle: Los Angeles *

Paul *

Sucker Punch **

Super *****

The King's Speech ****

Scream 4 ***

Thor **

Pirates of the Caribbean 4 *

X-Men: First Class ***

Green Lantern *

Captain America **

Attack the Block ****

The Inbetweeners ***

Melancholia ****

don't remember any decent 2011 film besides Drive.

edit: Melancholia, yeah.

So generally, 2011 was a shit year for the movie industry.

And hollywood delves deeper into the world of making shit sequels that still somehow seem to make profits.

I haven't seen any memorable films this year.

i saw the muppets.. that was alright. i really want to see j edgar but haven't had the time.

I saw these & generally agree with your rating. I also saw Apes, which I'd give...iunno, four or five. It didn't seem as artsy as Drive or Super (if that's the right word), but as far as entertaining summer sci-fi movies go it knew its stuff.

Pirates, Thor and Apollo 18 were the only current movies I saw this year.

Oh and some movie about explosions and talking robots.

drive was pretty good, but the soundtrack ruined it for me quite abit.

pff that was 1 of the best parts!

Melancholia. Everything else was forgettable. (At least in my corner of the world.)
