My 2009 in Review
So while other people did worthwhile things in their 2009, I saw a lot of movies. Movies in theatres! I think I saw more movies this year than the past 3 years combined. Maybe 4 years. It was just a "screw it! I'm going to see every movie I want to see instead of waiting around and missing out" kind of year. And so, while you lovely people have posted meaningful things, I will regale you with the movies I saw and about one sentence summing up my thoughts on it! That will be my look back on 2009!
Watchmen - Saw it four times in theatres I loved it so much!
Crank 2 - So over the top that it met itself on the other side and decided to keep going!
Star Trek - I like the reboot, especially the hot new actors!
X-Men Wolverine: Origins - Why Marvel, why? But at least there was a bit of awesome Deadpool.
The Hangover - I don't usually see comedies in theatres, but this was worth it!
Transformers 2 - Very pretty and full of MichaelBaysplosions, but not memorable.
Sword of the Stranger - Yey for anime in select theatres. Boo for sad endings!
Terminator Salvation - Better than I expected, so I'll go for it. :)
Fast & Furious - Dom and Brian are so gay, which is why I love this movie. Wait, there are cars in it too? ^_~
Dragonball Evolution - As a children's movie, it was pretty cool. As a Dragonball movie, it was an ugly mess.
Harry Potter and the Halfblood Prince - Saw it twice, but it's not my favorite Harry Potter film (or book, ftm).
G.I. Joe - A fun action romp left me pleased (which wasn't hard to do since I had no expectations from it).
Ponyo - So cuuuuuute! I died of cuteness overload!!!! And a surprisingly good dub.
9 - It was pretty cool, but they could have done so much more, which left me a little disappointed.
Zombieland - Short but totally worth every minute! Zombie killing action!
Surrogates - I saw it with good company, but that did not make it a good movie.
Evangelion 1.0 - Score for more anime in select theatres! It made me remember why I loved Eva. ^_^
New Moon - Ah, it's like a trainwreck. . . can't. . . stop. . . watching. . . the ANGST!!!!!
Ninja Assassin - This was surprisingly great! Flying blood and ninja action!
Avatar - I was set to not like it, but a good movie is a good movie, and Avatar is a certifiable good movie.
Sherlock Holmes - I have never read the books, which is probably why I loved this! Guy Ritchie ftw!
Watchmen - Saw it four times in theatres I loved it so much!
Crank 2 - So over the top that it met itself on the other side and decided to keep going!
