If you want a token 'foreign' heady movie then go for Enter The Void.

Piranha 3D for being low-brow badassery that actually delivers what it promises.

The Town
Toy Story 3
Social Network
Kick Ass
Youth in Revolt
Get Him to the Greek
Book of Eli
Shutter Island
Jackass 3
Hot Tub Time Machine

That's probably my top 10. Kind of a weak year for movies so far.

How can you have True Grit on there when it hasn't even come out yet? :naswtf:

I'm just throwing that name out there. I'm sure Tron Legacy will deserve to be on that list as well.

Well I think it's the "art movie" or whatever most people are likely to have seen. It's a personal favorite as well.

And I think you mean Black Death. It's incredible but no one cares.

What a bunch of faggots here there is only two possible choices The Expendables and Undisputed 3 everything else is just filler. Step Up 3D is not a bad 3rd place pick either.

naw, i saw this the other day.

Movie is really legit.

I've jumped on the hate train with Michael Cera lately but with Arrested Development, Super Bad, and now this.....his track record isn't that bad.

I know the other day I said Hugh Jackman has had a huge variety in terms of roles he takes in movies but Anna Kendrick is in the same boat.

It's not worthy of "best" honors but that movie was pretty fucking funny.

They've been listed but I'd like to second
Winter's bone and The Social Network

People talking Carlos :

Did you watch the 5 and half hour miniseries version or the 2:20 theatrical release?

I've had the longer one sitting on my comp, but heard it drags a little.

Any recs?

actually i've heard the opposite, the long cut is the way to go and the short theatrical one feels stilted
