The-Five-Year-Engagement

(Photo by jimmymac333) Man do I love me some movies, guys. The following listing of my favorites is not limited to movies that were released in 2012, but rather what I saw in 2012 that I most want to talk about. Prometheus - I’ve never seen a movie from the Alien franchise, but something about the trailers and the Fassbender hype made me want to catch this one in the theaters. After failing to get most people interested, Ian and I caught this flick.

I want to make everyone watch that hyper tense scene. ...

Min and I made the great sacrifice of seeing The Avengers for you. Our verdict? It’s excellent. Go see it, y’all. Seriously.

His barely contained anger was chilling and, most importantly, awesome. Joss Whedon’s writing also gels quite nicely with the movie, RDJ version of Iron Man. ...

On the one hand, I love Alison Brie. On the other…I hate Americans doing English accents. I’m gonna have to make an exception for this because Emily Blunt, Jason Segel, AND Alison Brie?! I’m there. Looks rom-com-y, but it’s got the same pedigree as Forgetting Sarah Marshall
