Which Film is Better?


Who We Are and What We Are Doing...

Two movie fans from Georgia give their opinions (usually opposite) on modern films. Sometimes these films will be popular popcorn films, some will be obscure arthouse films, and we are always open to suggestions for films to review.

Our Top Ten of 2009

Well, it is a new year and we kind of hate to see 2009 go. As Becky and I were compiling our list of movies for our top ten lists, we realized 2009 was the best year for films that we can remember. The Hollywood blockbusters had a few surprise gems, the smaller studios and indie filmmakers had an excellent year as well. 2009 was my favorite year for horror films yet (as you will see in my top ten as well as the honorable mentions). Here are our lists, and we welcome feedback, positive or negative (as long as it is constructive). These lists will give you an idea of the difference in mine and Becky's tastes, and help you to see what you are getting yourself into

by following our blog :)

  1. As you know, some of us are pretty eclectic and like a wide range of movies. I think it makes us interesting. My favorites are below:

    Taken
    Avatar
    The Hangover
    Rush Hour (All of them)
    Demolition Man
    Signs
    Willow
    Death Race

    And...while I'll admit that some of these are not critically acclaimed movies, they make me feel warm and fuzzy inside!

  2. I have seen all of these except Death Race, and I really need to see that one. I love the violent action flicks and I hear that one is pretty violent and fun.

  4. Yeah I am still missing An Education. I have heard nothing but positives, and I'll be kinda torqued if that doesn't get a dvd or a bigger cinema release before the Oscars. A Serious Man is another one I am stoked about watching. It has a dvd release date of February 9.
