Amy’s 2011 in Movies
This is not a Best of List. I think my Best of List for 2011 is going to be published well into 2012, just like my Best of 2010 was posted in October 2011. LOL I’m confident like that.
This is just random stuff.
Worst Latino Mix-up
Colombiana

What was behind the rotten wall in Trabalhar Cansa.

Justin Timberlake lamenting his mom Olivia Wilde’s death in In Time.
Best Movie Mom and Best Movie Dad
Anjelica Huston in 50/50 and Demian Bichir in A Better Life.
Best Telenovela Movie
Incendies
Oh No She Didn’t Moment
The pie scene in The Help.
Hilarious Fetish Moment
The cab scene smelling of the panties and dirty talk in Boleto al Paraiso.
Funniest Exorcist Moment

Worst Time to Get a Coughing Fit
Contagion
did anyone else get that?
Movie that Everyone Hated But I Didn’t Mind
The Green Hornet
Movie Everyone Loves But I Didn’t Care for… Much
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2
Biggest Surprise
I don’t think anyone expected Rise of the Planet of the Apes to be as entertaining as it actually was.
I’ma just put it out there:
ANY fight scene with Donnie Yen in it is the BEST fight scene!
@Camiele, I know right? He’s the biggest action star right now. Like… pffft. An action film without him lacks that… punch.
Dare to make your own list?
@amy, Well, I’d love to. If it weren’t for the fact that I saw, like, two films this year…HaHa.
A monkey acts better than Justin Timberlake. Oh wait, yeah – it happens in Rise of the Planet of the Apes. Okay, it’s not an ape… but Serkis has played King Kong and now Cesar, so that qualifies him.
The funniest scene, sans exorcism, has to be Sunny’s bully-fight though.
@ghost, did you see the Director’s Cut of Sunny? That scene has a longer cut of them arriving onsite for the bully-intervention. Na-mi in her daughter’s school uniform gets a “that’s kinky” comment hahaha
