Nice top 10, but I have Wanted and Iron Man as ***1/2 rather than ****.
Penelope? Really? Maybe I should check it out...
I am bummed I missed The X-Files from last summer...was moving when it opened and never got to it...same with Hellboy 2. Both films are in my Netflix queue.
Didn't see Married Life but want too. Very surprised to see Run Fatboy Run so high on the list as I thought the film looked like dog-doo...
We disagree on Baby Mama; I thought it was a missed opportunity.
You saw Made of Honor? I got roped into 27 Dresses by my fiancee but I thought it was cute for what it was. Thankfully, she didn't want to see Made of Honor so that one snuck by me.
We disagree -- big time -- on Hancock and Quantum. Hancock comes out next week on DVD in an unrated director's cut; can't wait to check that out. I also thought that Get Smart was pretty terrible.
Speed Racer's that bad, huh? I skipped it theatrically but it's been in my queue for a while...just no real desire to sit through it. And I consider myself a fan of the Wachoski's overall (Bound is their best and the original Matrix is more or less a masterpiece of science-fiction).
And WOW, you actually saw In the Name of the King? And Space Chimps? Were you forced at gun point?
(j/k)
"In the Name of My Sorry A"--ahem, uh..."the King" is literally (not figuratively, mind you) cinematic torture. If you think "The Happening" was bad, wait'll you see this. Same with "Space Chimps."
"Speed Racer" should have been called "Rainbow Poop." Pretty colors. Completely empty.
Rent "Penelope" immediately. It's underrated, HORRIFICALLY overlooked, and the best (live-action) romance this year.
About being forced at gun point, I might've given in to watching "Space Chimps," but would've died before seeing "In the Name of the King." Can't believe I sat through it. Ugh.
You stole "In the Name of My Sorry (Oops!)" from me! I AM OFFENDED D=<
