THE TOP 5 MOVIES OF 2012
5. SKYFALL
Skyfall narrowly edged out Django Unchained purely because of the nostalgia it brought back to the Bond franchise. Casino Royale is one of my favorite movies period but Skyfall felt like a better reboot. Classic James Bond movie.
4. LOOPER
I was blown away by Looper’s style and originality.
3. ZERO DARK THIRTY
A smart and fascinating look behind the scenes of one of the most important events in recent memory.
2. THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
The end of an era. Though the film didn’t rise above The Dark Knight, it still wrapped up a legendary film series I’ll cherish forever.
1. THE AVENGERS
I saw The Avengers 3 times in 7 days. Two of those were matinee viewings before work… By myself. I absolutely adored The Avengers. It was, by far, the most fun I had in theaters in 2012.
Bring on 2013!

Decent list for sure. “Cabin in the Woods” would have made my top 5 thought.
Cabin in the Woods was okay. I kind of wish I saw it in theaters instead of broad day light on a Sunday afternoon at home… Wasn’t as good as I had hoped. I didn’t think it sucked though. Definitely has it’s moments.
