is this a fine question or what?

please include guilty pleasures if you enjoyed any good ones.

if you've seen less than 3 new movies in 2013 i suppose that's ok but you could always wait until you've seen 4-5 and then narrow it down to 3 or somethin

i feel like there's been some good shit floatin around though. the other yearly movie thread is always more popular than this one which is also ok.

An Oversimplification of Her Beauty
Beyond the Hills
Museum Hours

playwright Greg Marlowe, secretly in love with Mary (Dr Morbius), Monday, 8 July 2013 04:10 (twelve years ago)

Mud
Compliance
Spring Breakers

I'm excited to see Museum Hours - I've never seen any of Jem Cohen's narrative things; I just know him through Fugazi stuff. I don't think any of your picks have actually been released in the UK.

I've seen very few movies this year and they were all Hollywood blockbuster-type movies so I'm not going to answer this beyond saying I really, really enjoyed Iron Man 3. I would really like to see An Oversimplification of Her Beauty, though; also, a good friend of mine is doing the music for a film called Knockaround Kids that I haven't had the chance to see yet but did well at the Roxbury International Film Festival (the writer/director won the Emerging Filmmaker Award).

eff that concept

These are the threads that previously encouraged me to watch stuff like Observe & Report, Crank and Grandma's Boy that I wouldn't have bothered with otherwise.

billstevejim, Sunday, 29 December 2013 01:39 (eleven years ago)

Those "54% on rotton tomatoes" things that I ended up enjoying anyway.

I have hope every year that these threads might continue helping me.

21 Jump Street too. Def would've have bothered checking that out had it not been for the top 3 movies threads.

billstevejim, Sunday, 29 December 2013 01:41 (eleven years ago)

wouldn't*

In A World… came out a couple of months ago in the UK. Didn't get a whole lot of promotion. Was good, though I seem to remember the nice hipster boyfriend plot was bad and wrong.

Alba, Sunday, 29 December 2013 11:33 (eleven years ago)

The Great Beauty
American Hustle
Philomena

I think I saw the Sessions at the beginning of this year, which would probably be my favourite film, but I guess its a 2012 film.

Guilty pleasures:

Rush (ruined by offensive sexist stereotyping of girlfriends)
Side Effects, Trance (both far more guilty of all flash no substance than American Hustle)

Turkeys:

Elysium
Anchorman 2

mohel hell (Bob Six), Sunday, 29 December 2013 11:42 (eleven years ago)

Trance def on my 10 Worst list, along with Before Midnight

eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 29 December 2013 13:07 (eleven years ago)

I don't get the point of "so far" now, as you guys are clearly writing off the year at this point

eclectic husbandry (Dr Morbius), Sunday, 29 December 2013 13:08 (eleven years ago)
