What's been your favourite, worst or missed opportunity 2012 movie ?
Favourite(s)
Avengers Assemble - worth the wait and finally a decent movie Hulk.
The Grey - An extremely powerful and emotive movie. Liam Neesons finest performance.
The Raid Redemption - brutal, visceral Indonesian action movie. Incredible almost balletic fight sequences.
Dark Knight Rises - yes it has it's problems but it is a fitting end to what has been a powerhouse trilogy by Chris Nolan.
Missed Opportunities - movies that should have been a whole lot better
Prometheus - I really wanted so much more from this movie but it's muddled message and lazy characterisations let it down. Superb visuals though
John Carter - I was so stoked that Edgar Rice Borroughs pulp novels were getting some attention, but for me the resulting movie was a let down. A lead actor who was more wooden than a lumber yard didn't help. And would it have hurt to have a red sky on Barsoom ?
Worst
Battleship
Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter
Movies I'm waiting to see
Cloud Atlas, The Hobbit








Also, living in the state of Illinois, Land of Lincoln it's required.
I saw a statue of Lincoln in London, Hyde Park?
Looking forward to 2013 movies.
Cheers, Mike

But coming up a very close second is the Avengers movie. I honestly didn't expect to like it... but with Joss at the helm, I should have had more faith. A really solid superhero flick and just a well done action movie.
