In no specific order: MI 4 Warrior Drive The Descendants Thor X-Men That's all I have. A lot of movies listed in this thread got very poor ratings on rotten. Hugo was ok but I know countless people that despised this film.

Are you kidding? 2011 was a great year for movies. I think Summer of 2012 will be far better, but I wasn't really disappointed much this year. FYI to everyone, Tintin was a great movie.
i dont think i saw 10 movies that were released in 2011, but here is the top 10 of what i did see (i have netflix so i just dont go to theaters much anymore, unless its the alamo drafthouse and even many of those are special screening-type deals). 1. city of god - scarface meets slumdog millionaire. if you have not seen this movie drop everything you are doing and watch it now. 2. the protege - never even heard of this movie when it came out - amazing story - we debated/discussed it for an hour or so afterwards. 3. black swan 4. bridesmaids - at least thrice as funny as the hangover. 5. en tran fantasma - band called caranga cakewalk did a live score to this mexican silent film from the 20's at the paramount theater. 6. all the pretty horses - even though it got bad reviews i just read the book and wanted to see it - surprisingly good. billy bob is a very underrated director. very faithful to the book for a 2 hour movie too. the kid who plays jimmy blevins was spot-on - exactly how i pictured him in the book. 7. the unforseen - documentary on development in west austin/barton creek/circle c. 8. the men who stare at goats 9. anvil: the story of anvil

did you see all these movies in the theater? impressive! out of all the ones you listed the only one ive seen is bridesmaids.:grin: i heard warhorse is a piece of s***. less then 10 minutes of the movie is actually about war. false advertising there...should have just called the movie "horse".
I attend a few film fests a year and am lucky enough to have access to premiere movie screenings here in Austin. Of the movies listed I saw five on DVD...the rest in theaters.
