Here's a ranked top ten of 2013, I think I did a pretty good job of seeing last year's movies. I went to the theatre a bunch of times and of course Netflixed and DVDed what I missed.

Inside Llewyn Davis (easy winner. Saw it twice in the movies and once on DVD already. I loved the music, I loved Llewyn, I loved Oscar Isaac. The movie hit home for me, I feel like I could talk about it a lot (and I have).)
Prince Avalanche
Mud
Gravity (paid for the 3D. I may never say this again, but this time it was worth it.)
Nebraska
Fruitvale Station
The Wolf of Wall Street
The World's End
This is the End
Captain Phillips

I watched Anchorman 2 last night. I really enjoyed the first one, and was looking forward to this one.


I wish I'd never watched it

Just got around to watching Blue Jasmine. Holy fuck! Kate B. earned the shit out of that Oscar. Amazing performance and one of Allen's best films in a while. (I'm a fan of him as an artist. As for his personal life, I have no opinion one way or another.) Sorry it took me so long to get around to this one because it ruled hard.

I'm really interested as to what you're going to think of this. I saw this last night, and well - I know we'll be looking at the story from two different angles and I'm wondering if that has any influence on ones enjoyment of the film

I've seen sightseers by the same director, which i thought wasn't very good. A field in England could be cool though considering it stars the great julian barrett

Dallas Buyers Club. Kinda by-the-numbers Oscar bait, but the acting is good.

I watched that at last year's Buenos Aires International Independent Film Festival. I like it a lot. Don't know if I'd call it "similar", exactly, but I encourage you to check out "Help Me Eros" by Lee Kang-sheng.

Cool, I'm honestly really interested in any contemporary "asian" cinema recommendations. I basically know nothing about what's going on, or what to look for.

basically true, but I thought the last hour was great, starting around the Quaaludes scene.
