I saw Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs the other day.  That's going into my top 10 for this year.  :)

Everyone I've spoken to who's seen it loves it, it's just a shame so few people are interested in seeing it imo

It just didn't look worth seeing when I first heard about it. I guess I'll have to check it out on DVD now (it's turning into Kung-Fu Panda all over again).

Doctor Who?

It looks like a really gimicky story that will get old after half an hour so I have no interest in seeing it.  At least from the trailer it looks like the movie's whole point is just to make a bad pun.

That's the thing though, that's what everyone thinks BEFORE they see it.
FINE

Doctor Who saves a lot of money on books  ;D

In all seriousness, I thought it looked like garbage and I rarely am interested in a non-Pixar CG animated movie. The only reason I bothered was that everyone I knew who saw it loved it and it was making a lot of top ten lists.

Even still, my wife and I were like, "How good could it possibly be?"

I recommend checking it out.

Alright, my list is late, but here it is:

1. District 9 (I love this film so very, very much)
2. Trick 'r Treat
3. Inglourious Basterds
4. Moon
5. Watchmen
6. In The Loop
7. Fantastic Mr. Fox
8. Up
9. Up In The Air
10. The Hurt Locker
11. Pontypool
12. Observe and Report
13. Paranormal Activity
14. Drag Me To Hell
15. Pirate Radio

Pretty good year. Especially since Coraline, Zombieland, Crank 2, Ponyo, and The Princess and the Frog only made runner-up.

I'm all but positive when I see Black Dynamite in February on DVD, it will be in my Top-5, more notably, #3.

I must confess I didn't pay any attention towards Moon throughout the year, and shame on me. I'll be seeing that next month, undoubtedly.

Doctor Who?

This was hard because I just have not seen that many films this year that I like and some of the ones that I think I will like I am waiting to come in from Netflix so this list may change latter but so far it's...

1)District 9
2)UP
3)Public Enemies
4)Taken
5)Watchmen
6)Star Trek
