Moonrise Kingdom should be a blast, i've liked everything Anderson has done, particularly Rushmore, that movie never fails to crack me up from beginning to end...

Took the wife to see The Hunger games for her birthday. Man I was really surprised. Really good. I was reluctant at first but was glad I took her

He's definitely been my favorite director since I first saw Rushmore. A lot of Anderson fans say his dialogue just isn't the same with Owen Wilson co-writing, while that may be true, his movies are still smart with great humor, charming, and dripping with style. I have really enjoyed each and every one of his movies. If I had to rank them:
The Royal Tenenbaums > Bottle Rocket > Rushmore > The Life Aquatic > Fantastic Mr. Fox (sorta in a league of its own though) > The Darjeeling Limited

Just watched The Grey. Holy balls that was a good movie. Great acting, great characters, great cinematography, great setting, some good tension.

The only thing I didn't like was the personification of the wolves. I felt they made them seem way too intelligent but it was kind of necessary to build the tension and further the plot.

I also liked the little after credits surprise. Liam Neeson is a bad ass!

Warrior - I'm not into MMA, but this was pretty good.

That movie was excellent. Probably my favorite film of 2011.
The MMA was a footnote.

Nolte absolutely slayed that role.

I was shocked that the actor who played Tommy was not a real MMA fighter. Dude was ripped.

Chronicle was entertaining, although the shitty effects near the end really took me out of the experience.

Tom hardy. One of my favorite actors. He plays bane in yhe new batman. If you want to see him shine in a role, rent Bronson.

He was also good in Inception.

His traps are from another world.

Bronson was great, btw.

Well if you didn't like the ending then the after-credits scene probably won't change much. Personally I think an open-ended conclusion is refreshing from time to time. Sometimes less is more.

Spoiler!
