Count me in.
I will marshall all the forces of darkness to hound you to an assisted suicide - Peter Capaldi, In The Loop
Ann Hornaday (Washington Post) top 10 :
1. “Zero Dark Thirty”
2. “Lincoln”
3. “The Waiting Room”
4. “Monsieur Lazhar”
5. “Middle of Nowhere”
6. “This Is Not a Film”
7. “Argo”
8. “Margaret”
9. “Anna Karenina”
10. “Amour”
I think a number of us here feel that it was a good movie at best (myself included). It's the number of people outside these forums that think it's "the greatest movie ever made".
I'll let you know when I watch it, but I'm sure Renier (and Magimel) will be wonderful.
Tower Heist person! Why is your signature funny? I don't understand it. I would like to - could you please help me?
About Cloclo, I have seen it and for me it had an uneven tone. There were parts that were excelent but it suffered from trying to tell a very large story (as all the biopics tend to do). I enjoyed it (though I also liked The Iron Lady, so....) and Renier was a revelation.
There is an in-between place: those who preferred Avengers to DKR but do not think it was the greatest movie ever. Probably a lot of people are in this group.
Ang Lee - The only 2x Bafta/DGA/Oscar-Winning Director!
Meryl on Oscars: Y’see these little babies? These are my best f***ing friends
and they never let me down. Try to get ‘em away from me and I’ll eat you alive.
The impossible is actually a foreign film. So that makes three.
To see "Monsieur Lazhar" appears on a list warms my heart. I loved this film.
♥ Algeria ♥
But its also in English. So, yeah, foreign language films still remain at 2, unless we were then to count the highly accessible Life of Pi.
I think that of both The Avengers & Dark Knight Rises.
And me. It was a colossal bore and it's still such a shock to see that high RT score.
Atlantic Wire chimes in:
They give an alphabetical list of their top 10 starting with a very dubious selection:
The Amazing Spider Man
Amour
Argo
Beasts of the Southern Wild
The Cabin in the Woods
How to Survive a Plague
Looper
Moonrise Kingdom
Your Sister's Sister
Zero Dark Thirty
Bigelow's film is really dominating these lists.
Your Sister's Sister!
Cabin in the Woods! Looper!
The Amazing Spider-Man.
"I shall immediately after I'm done watching Homeland." - DirkDiggler on his voting priorities
ÑNice to see a list that strays from the sheep.
Love, love, love The Cabins in the Woods mention.
That and Amour.
And Beasts, which has already been named on 8 top-ten lists
