December Numbers
Back on the movie watching train with a whopping 52 movies viewed.
I added a few new movies to my best of the year list. We Need to Talk About Kevin is one of the best horror films I've seen this year. The Myth of the American Sleepover is a little seen film about high school kids and the events covering one night. The unknown cast bring a nice realistic feel to the film. Also, the cancer comedy 50/50 is added. Very funny movie about cancer. Who knew? I still have a few more films from 2011 that I need to watch before I have a final list of 2011 movies.
I also added some more to my worst of the year, Friends with Kids, Extinction The G.M.O. Chronicals, The Girl with the Naked Eye are unwatchable crap.
Making my honorable mentions list are seven films that would probably be in my top 20, if I made one. Tyrannosaur, A Separation, The Skin I Live In, Martha Marcy May Marlene, The Four Times, Bill Cunningham New York, and Tabloid are all great films worth watching.
This year I've seen 479 movies.
