Movies of 2010

Not listing the movies that came out in the USA in 2010 but came out previous to 2010. Sorry, Prophet and others.

If you didn't see these movies, you wasted your life:

• Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World - Considering my nerd boner for TRON: Legacy and how lame I thought the previews looked for Scott Pilgrim, I can't this is my #1 film of the year. It features the following lines, "Next time I'll be deadly serious next time" and "I don't think anything can get in the way of how I...SHIT!" and "I gotta pee on her." get this custom cover for it
• TRON: Legacy - Loving this is probably karmic retaliation for thinking Avatar was loved too much even though it was middle school depth covered up with special effects.
• Toy Story 3 - Better than Toy Story not as good as Toy Story 2. I shoot cried at the end.
• The Social Network - probably the best overall movie of the year but it's no Scott Pilgrim or TRON: Legacy.
• True Grit - Cobros, Jeff Bridges, western, why ain't you seen dis yet?

s you should really see:

• The American - George Clooney continues his string of movies for adults that are pretty good.
• The Fighter - I apparently really like David O. Russell.
• 127 Hours - The scene where Aron Ralston describes making choices leading to being alone with no hope of anyone finding him is insane and maybe better than the scene of him cutting off his own arm.
• Greenberg - Ben Stiller finally impresses me. Noah Baumbach finally gives me a lukewarm impression.
• Piranha 3D - A guy gets his penis bitten off (by piranha).
• The Town -Ben Affleck directed and starred in a movie and it's not terrible. That moves it up a couple points just for that.
• Iron Man 2 - good but nowhere near as good as the first. Necessary viewing because of how Marvel is going to tie all the movies together.
• Exit Through The Gift Shop - What Is Art?: The Movie
• Louis CK: Hilarious - Louis CK being hilarious
• Inception - it uses practical effects which are super awesome but too much exposition to be truly great.
• Buried - Just a great thriller with a great performance from Ryan Reynolds of all people.

These are good, but don't go out of your way

• Shutter Island - There isn't anything technically wrong with this but it's not that good
• Black Swan - Aronofsky's constant need to remind you of the theme's killed this. Could have been great but was merely ok.
• The Expendables - There are some movies you watch for subtle, nuanced performances. There are some you watch for testosterone and blood flying off the screen. This is somewhere in the middle.
• Kick-Ass - worth seeing for Nicholas Cage's acting alone.
• Predators - this would have been a better Predator 2 than Predator 2. Probably still not good enough to warrant being made.
• Tangled - Kind of surprised that this was good.

I guess these are good:

• Salt - technically an all right movie.
• Splice - predictable and creepy but not in the good, Black Christmas creepy way.
• Machete - the extreme awesomeness of a guy using intestines as a rope is offset by the everything else that was kind of crappy.
• Let Me In - This is better than this but just watch the original is so much better that I can't recommend it.
• A Nightmare On Elm Street - not the worst in the series but the major update is that Freddy is a child molestor because apparently being a serial killer isn't bad enough.

Don't waste your time

• Book Of Eli - I didn't see anything good about this movie. heh
• Alice In Wonderland - just a bland movie.
• Resident Evil: Afterlife - laughably bad. Maybe I should have seen the first three, but that won't be happening.
• Red- just google a picture of Helen Mirren holding a machine gun then watch a good movie for two hours
• Standing Ovation - one of the worst movies I have ever seen ever.
• Morning Glory - crap
