Top 10 Movies of 2012

what are your top 10 movies of 2012?

So far (still have a lot to see):

1. Safety Not Guaranteed
2. The Dark Knight Rises
3. Moonrise Kingdom
4. Chronicle
5. The Avengers
6. The Hunger Games
7. We Need to Talk About Kevin (came out in my area in 2012)
8. Lawless
9. The Amazing Spider-man
10. Project X

this will for sure change throughout the year so I will keep updating it

 

Interesting you have Safety Not Guaranteed #1. I saw it, I thought it was "okay," but you and a lot of people think very highly of it. Maybe I need to rewatch it.

There are still a lot of movies I've been meaning to watch this year but haven't been able to. Hopefully I get to it soon. End Of Watch, Argo, The Imposter, Seven Psychopaths, Killing Them Softly, Looper, Lincoln, Wreck-It Ralph, Django Unchained, The Master, The Man With The Iron Fists, Skyfall, Zero Dark Thirty, Lincoln, and The Perks Of Being A Wallflower. Jesus Christ my wallet hurts just looking at that list.

 

No idea. I've seen so many that I can't remember the highlights. Looper and The Raid would probably be on there. I need a huge list of 2012 movies just to remember what I've seen.

 

I've only seen Ted so far this year. It was a great movie though. I almost cried when his stuffing got ripped out.

 

-Top 10 so far-

The Avengers - 8.5-9/10
Looper - 8.5/10
The Dark Knight Rises - 8/10
Ted - 8/10
The Grey - 8
Moonrise Kingdom - 8/10
21 Jump Street - 7.5/10
Hunger Games - 6.5
How I Spent My Summer Vacation - 6.5/10
Taken 2 - 6.5/10

-Everything else so far-
Contraband - 6.5
Big Miracle - 6.5/10
Haywire - 6
John Carter - 6
Prometheus - 6
The Amazing Spider-man - 6
Snow White & the Huntsman - 6


-Stuff I want to see-
Seven Psychopaths (hands down my most looked forward to, In Bruges is a personal favourite)
Skyfall
Killing Them Softly (wasn't released in my area, "Assassination" is a masterpiece so I need to see this)
The Hobbit
Django Unchained
End of Watch
Argo
Samsara
Lawless
Cabin In The Woods

...and some other stuff I can't remember right now.

 

Moonrise Kingdom
The Dark Knight Rises

I haven't seen any of the following but I know for sure they'll end up on my year end list:

Seven Psychopaths
Killing them Softly
The Iceman
Argo
Looper
Premium Rush
Compliance
The Imposter
Skyfall
The Hobbit
Django Unchained
The Master

 

It's hard to make top 10 when I've seen only 30 movies this year so far and some of them were from 2011.
But my favorites from 2012 include Moonrise Kingdom, Wild Bill, Safety Not Guaranteed...

I like your taste in movies...These movies are on my list too

 

Thanks. There are a bunch of other ones (mostly independent) that I'm really looking forward to.. all of em look very intriguing.

 

Well, I can't think of 10 right now, but here are my top 5:

1. Argo
2. Moonrise Kingdom
3. The Dark Knight Rises
4. 21 Jump Street
5. The Avengers

Movies I'm looking forward to watch:

Looper
Premium Rush
Django Unchained
Lincoln
The Great Gatsby
The Hobbit
Wreck it Ralph

 

That's a lot of "The" movies.

 

tbh though on another forum KTT, i pointed this out when some guys list had over half of the 10 with The's starting the title. Crazy how many The movies came out this year

Spoilers man :/

But nah, it's alright, I already saw a picture that spoiled the ending of the movie for me.

I like your taste in movies. Sadly to the average movie goer, Moonrise Kingdom and Safety Not Guaranteed will go under the radar, when they are brilliant pieces of work.

It's just opinions, I could see why someone might not be into it. everyone i've seen enjoyed it, but not everyone will enjoy a movie. It is a bit weird, but it's a bit of a quirky hipster movie (for lack of a better term). I just loved the direction, the story, and everything about it. Plus Aubrey is so hot. My background of my laptop is a slidshow of pictures of her, lol.

haven't seen argo yet or 21 Jump Street but nice list, Happy that there are others on here who liked Moonrise Kingdom. except the beach scene kind of makes you feel like a pedophile lol. It was brillaintly directed. I also agree with your looking forward too list except The great gatsby (will suck, I only care about it because I like the cast, especially Leo, my favorite actor. But I hated the book so yeah) and The Hobbit (don't stone me, it's because I have never seen the LOTR movies, ok stone me. But seriously I will get around to watching them someday).

I've only seen 18 movies from this year so far, and one of them was Finding Nemo 3d
