Top Ten Best And Worst Movies of the Year

Best Movies:

10. Public Enemies - Johnny Depp AND Christian Bale, now THAT'S a movie.
9. Paranormal Activity - Scariest movie of the year (at least the scariest i watched)
8. District 9 - Awesome, except for the fookin' South African
7. The Informant - Weird, but in a funny way
6. Zombieland - Time to nut up or shut up
5. Inglorious Basterds - Haha Bear Jew
4. 500 Days of Summer - Best romantic comedy ever
3. Star Trek - Live long and propsper
2. Avatar - Best special effects ever
1. Up - Best Pixar movie ever. And that's saying something.

Worst Movies:

10. Terminator Salvation - Biggest disappointment ever. It had Christian Bale in a post apocalyptic world. But then it's directed by a dude who calls himself McG (Mac Jee)
9. Lesbian Vampire Killers - Just look at the name
8. Transformers 2 - Ruined the robot action with trying to make the robots funny.
7. Gamer - This was crap. Like Death Race, but without cars.
6. New Moon - It's a Twilight movie. Enough said.
5. Push - Had a good concept, but ruined it with a truly crap action
4. X-Men Origins: Wolverine - Completely ruined the Wolverine origin with too many characters and really crappy special effects
3. Hannah Montana: The Movie - It's Hannah Montana. In movie form.
2. Street Fighter: Legend of Chun Li - The only reason its not No. 1 is because i couldn't watch all of it
1. Dragonball Evolution - Perfect example of how to ruin something awesome.

thursday

apologies for not posting yesterday but i will make up for it with this. i had the worst day yesterday. i skipped breakfast (havent had breakfast in quite a while actually) because i slept in at 11, then realised that i couldnt have lunch because i had to go to the dentist so i went hungry for around 4 hours. And had to go to the dentist. Then i went to get a haircut (i hate haircuts) and when i got home i had to mow the lawn (i hate mowing the lawn). But i made up for it with migoreng noodles for dinner. :D

AVATAR

On monday, i watched avatar at IMAXXXXXXX!!! It's about this cripple guy who gets to be this awesome amazing huge alien thing using mind control (avatar, not imax). The first half hour of the movie is the best, becuase ur not used to the 3d effects yet and it looks so cool. The special effects in the movie are awesome, because all the stuff looks so real. Sam Worthington is also really good in this movie, even when he's that alien and the motion capture is so much better than previous films, eg. Beowulf.
The story is a bit simple and its really predictable, you know what's going to happen half an hour before it actually does, but that sort of works, because you want Jake to ride that huge badass dragon.

An excellent movie with excellent special effects.

Rating: 4.5/5

Sherlock Holmes

I went to watch sherlock holmes on sunday and it is about the famously brilliant detective taking on a new case involving mysteries of magic and an event that could change the fate of the earth etc. etc. etc. This version is an updated version, and it looks a lot cooler. Robert Downey Jr. is awesome as Holmes because he's funny and knows kung fu. He sort of reminds me of House and Captain Jack Sparrow put together. Everyone else in the movie is boring. I liked the action even the bits where he explains what he's going to do before he does it.
Probably the only problem with the movie is the story. I really didnt like how holmes has to deal with magic coz you immediately already know that there is a logical explanation for everything. And he only does a proper deduction twice, once somewhere in the middle and once at the end. But the end explanation is so unsatisfying it doesnt really count.

So in the end its a good movie, but not a great one.

Rating: 3/5 (note 2 of those points are for robert downey)

saturday

muahahahaha, once again this blog is under my complete tyrannical control. You will now be subjected to lame boxing day jokes. Where does santa live in the north pole? In a box! (that's why its called boxing day, coz santa gets boxed in!). speaking of boxes, take a look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GkTu7JLLNk

CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!! (friday)

YAY!!! IT'S CHRISTMAS!! i used to be really excited about christmas, but this year i almost forgot that it was christmas eve. probably because our christmas tree broke and we didnt put one up this year. i also think that it was when i stopped believing in santa. or just didnt like him any more. i think it was when "santa" gave me a maths book one christmas and i was like "santa you asshole, now i have to do maths on christmas". and i actually did. so that was probably my worst christmas ever. actually this christmas is kinda sad as well since im blogging.

well MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!! (happy hannukah to falko)
