I didn't see <i>Cloverfield</i>, but I DID see <i>Mamma Mia</i>. (And I have to say that <i>Mamma Mia</i> was probably the most fun I had watching a movie all year, with the possible exception of <i>Get Smart</i> at the drive-in.) Movies on your list that I truly enjoyed: 21 Iron Man The Incredible Hulk Get Smart The Dark Knight (though I don't think it lived up to the hype) Movies on your list I thought were only so-so: Jumper Prince Caspian Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of Too Much CGI Wanted Quantam of Solace Movies on your list I fell asleep during and therefore can give no fair opinion: Hellboy 2 :) You and I saw pretty much the exact same movies this year (go figure), with one exception.

Once school started, I had to quit watching movies for awhile. I do agree that Iron Man was AWESOME. You saw a lot more movies than I did.

Sex and The City? X-Files 2? I've seen about half of the ones you mentioned here and I thought about the same. Indy IV I enjoyed while in the theater but it really didn't stick with me. I loved the Dark Knight... but can they really do a third movie that's worth watching? Here's hoping. My personal favorite movie this year is a toss-up between Wall-E or The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. With the latter, I didn't realize I'd love it so much... but then I did. It's one of those movies you'll either love or hate. There's no particular plot, it is more like vignettes from Benjamin's life. But still, a very satisfying movie. No thoughts on Mama Mia? Sex and The City? X-Files 2?
