Sorry, I don't mean to knock your friends or your tastes by any means, but I'm saying this out of my own experiences. Many of my friends also have similar tastes and enjoyment in films, but Cloud Atlas was a film that definitively divided everyone in my close group of friends. All I'm saying is...

If you've read enough reviews, you would know that the film doesn't really have a general consensus. The reviews have been all over the map with critics slamming, praising it and even admitting confusion over the film. Bob's is just one in the love it category. Fact is, everyone is going to have...

They actually totally did. It's PG-13, but it's one of those rare PG-13 movies were they get the nudity okay'd.

You do know that pointing out that someone has a difference in opinion with the norm doesn't make that someone's opinion invalid. And don't knock Scott Pilgrim. That's a great film and anyone who loves it as much as I do is in my good book.

It's depressing that only there have been only 4 comments on this before mine. Anyway, I've been looking forward to "Beasts" for a while and as soon as it's anywhere nearby I'm going to see it. As for "Moonrise Kingdom" I actually just got back from the theater after it was FINALLY released...

I was wondering when you'd say something regarding the GI Joe news. But yeah, interesting article. The internet has changed the way films are marketed now, and it'll probably change drastically in ways we can't imagine in the years to come. For good or ill.

My money's on The Flash" too. But how awesome would it be if DC surprised everyone and made it Bruce Wayne? Conservatives have been on a Batman-high ever since "The Dark Knight" showed up and made the film primarily about stopping terrorism and using a PATRIOT Act-like machine to do it. That...

Are people really saying that they "hated" the original Spider-Man trilogy now?! I know the third one isn't very good, but that's kind of depressing. They kind of rewrote the genre. And that new Spider-Man movie seems really iffy.

I think it was more him acknowledging what the most popular picks for favorite superhero films are, then actually pointing out his favorites. Or I guess he could've re-watched "The Dark Knight" recently and realized that it actually is better than "Watchmen."

I get where you're coming from, but I think the issue is that it's making Spider-Man come across as a dick. Sure, you can have films where the character isn't likable at first and he makes a character journey to realize his mistakes (Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, Attack the Block), but he's...

Jesus, and I thought "Total Recall" looked bad...

You give Wrath of the Titans a passing grade, but couldn't bother with The Hunger Games? Well, it's your opinion... your crazy, crazy opinion ;)

I don't think he actually saw "The Artist." I've been struggling to see it myself actually. OT: Anyway, interesting list. Love the fact that you have four of my favorite movies of the year on the list (Drive, Attack the Block, Midnight in Paris, Tree of Life). I'm certainly in the majority...

He's from Lynn, Massachusetts which isn't far from Boston I believe. That's his accent and he's had it before in his Shutter Island review and some of his other videos that I can't remember at the top of my head.

Just saw it and I totally disagree Bob. Dark of the Moon is probably going to hold for me as the worst one in the franchise. A 45 minute coherent(a first for Michael Bay) action scene, doesn't excuse how whinny and annoying these characters are to the point I wanted to rip their guts out...
