Amph Your favorite films of 2014 so far.

Ya I should have added Jodorowsky's Dune to my list too.

 

That is one of the few tropes that just genuinely annoys me any time it comes up. I mean, if that was true, then ninety percent of traumatic brain injuries would have no effect on the injured person.

 

Oh, I knew the premise was terrible and I kept lowering my expectations the more I saw. But it had Morgan Freeman and Scarlett Johansson, so I thought "How bad could it really be?" I even hoped that they'd address the stupidity of the 10% of your brain trope. I don't know what I was thinking.

Also, I'd planned to wait for it to come out on streaming, but my friend who was getting married (I was his best man) insisted on watching it as an alternative to a bachelor party (yeah...he regretted that decision ).

Anyway, the point is, you must understand that I had incredibly low expectations. Somehow the movie managed to fall significantly short of them.

 

Lucy was incredibly stupid and also had some major yellow peril problems, but I Iiked Besson channeling Tree of Life during the last act.

 

So far mine are:

1. Captain America: The Winter Soldier
2. Guardians of the Galaxy
3. X-Men: Days of Future Past
4. Transformers: Age of Extinction
5. The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
6. The Amazing Spider-Man 2
7. Non-Stop
8. Lucy
9. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
10. Edge of Tomorrow

There's been so many good films this year! I've seen more than 30 and plan on seeing a lot more.

 

So far mine:

1. guardians of the galaxy
2. Godzilla

In no particular order, GOTG, Snowpiercer, Noah, CA: The Winter Soldier, and Sin City: A Dame to Kill For. Hasn't been that great of a year for films so far in my estimation.

 

So far I've only about 5 films this year really no big releases in theaters. I liked didn't love Snowpiercer or the Lego Movie. But my favorite so far has been Locke

 

Godzilla for me. It's a great summer blockbuster that is actually really thrilling. It does new things with it's property which is more than can be said a great deal of the time unfortunately. I love the fact that it takes the time to show how terrifying it would be to be in that scenario.
