2010 Movie Round-Up!!

Joyeux Nouvel An!

2011 is upon is!  To close what has been a busy and eventful 2010, I present to you the final list of all the movies I've seen in the past year.  I am proud to announce that I am in excess of my 52 movies per year goal by almost TEN WHOLE MOVIES.

Needless to say, I'm pretty excited about that.  Armed with new resolve to continue my standing resolution AND a new membership at the Museum of the Moving Image (an AWESOME Christmas present care of my wonderful aunt and uncle), I'm confident my cinephilic zeal will carry over into 2011.  I'm excited to see what movies the new year has to offer.

Best Movie Seen This Year: Changeling
This is a really tough decision, but this was such a riveting movie, and my impression is that it's under-viewed.  So go see it!

Worst Movie Seen This Year: Remember Me
A very easy decision by comparison.  Good holy God was that a terrible movie.  I'm still angry I didn't ask for my money back, and that's not something I do lightly.

Also, rough year for Robert Pattinson if my ratings are any gauge.

With that, Boyfriend and I have some food shopping to do in preparation for our New Year's Eve celebratory plans.  Have a safe and happy night tonight, and a wonderful New Year!

Onward and upward!
