halfway to redemption lies in the fixing/updating of the index. no one has touched that in almost a year. :X

Joe tries to rid herself of her sexuality.

i really like her name in the film %)
 
New American-made Hercules movie and predictably all the characters have English accents.

Every ancient character in American movies speaks with an English accent.

Why didn't they cast Greeks for the Hercules movie? I like the way Greeks talk. And I like how they all have names that sound like Kristos Papanikolas.
 
I wish they had more all day marathons of shows I love. It's nice being able to put on the TV at almost any hour and have Breaking Bad playing for me.

agreed

let's take the piss and make an ancient set movie with an all cockney cast.
 
Now that 2013 is a wrap I finished with a total of 185 new movies. That beats my previous record of 156 from the previous year. Maybe this year I'll break 200?

Saw a lot of movies from recent years. Saw a number of classics from the 60's and 70's and saw a good amount of 80's movies. Lot more Eddie Murphy.
 
with literally having a list of all the movies you saw over the year, can you pick a favorite?

i think i probably missed a dozen during a time i wasn't logging on much, but otherwise i got practically every movie i saw this year in the "last film you saw" thread. i'll be doing my tally soon. i already know i didn't see nearly as many as 2012. which i think i counted.
 
2011: 120 movies

2012: 60 movies

2013: 64 movies

i'm slipping. i think both on how many movies i see and about getting them in the last film you saw thread. i'm more concerned about fixing the latter.

big numbers, Carl.

This reminds me, I've really been slacking on that front. Maybe I can get a list from the library of all my checkouts? That'd be neat.

There were a few that I really enjoyed and stood out more than other films. If I had to pick a top 10 I think it would something like: Silver Linings Playbook, Life of Pi, Midnight in Paris, The Lives of Others, End of Watch, The Wrestler, Django Unchained, Toy Story 3, How to Train Your Dragon, and Sherlock Holmes. These movies were really moving, well acted, and just downright enjoyable to watch.

There were a lot of other movies that were enjoyable, funny, or moving though. I thought Rum Diary was really funny, a lot more than I thought it would be. I thought Big Fish was incredibly moving and it made me shed quite a few tears. I thought Rango had some of the best animation I've ever seen. Wreck It Ralph was a fun animated movie that had a lot of video game nostalgia tied into it. The Master, which I thought was a bit odd and was only alright had some of the best acting I saw all year between Joaquin Phoenix and Phillip Seymour Hoffman.
