You could say that I've really sorta majorly lost my groove this year. I stick a good amount of that blame on lack of money. Damn you, lack of money, damn you! But then I can't help but dislike myself for not reviewing a single damn one of these flicks - er, well nearly every single damn one of these flicks. That said, I plan on giving my two cents about each and every one of these 2012 releases as soon as possible. Since next month will primarily be based around Batman and worshiping all things related to the Dark Knight, reviews will be forthcoming in August.
Compared to this time 2011, yeah, I've really dropped the ball. Frankly, 2012 may be the year where I transition from loving movies and finding them the best thing in the universe, to falling in love with television and everything it has to offer. I mean, c'mon, I've already hit twenty-two full seasons watched, and with 22-24 episodes per season, that be a lot of time! Blimey! Anyone else love themselves this much TV?
But what I will say in regards to 2012 cinema is that it's been more interesting than last year. Cabin in the Woods recontextualized a whole genre, The Hunger Games opened the movie industry's eyes that women can kick major ass too, The Avengers have solidified Joss Whedon's name as The Man, no longer loved by just a devout few, and plenty of big budget productions have been failing to hit the mark (e.g., Battleship, Snow White and the Huntsman) while smaller (but still sizable) productions have either refused to leave my mind or impressed me far more than I could have expected (e.g., The Grey and Dark Shadows, respectively). And now July offers up two movies I couldn't anticipate more.
Like I said. Interesting year.
Oh! And just wanted to say, after viewing Final Destination 5 in 3D, I don't know why, but home theater 3D has impressed me far more than theatrical screenings have. So, despite my dislike for the ticket prices and BR prices of 3D, perhaps - just perhaps - there's something to the whole thing after all...cos that was really something. Also, if you have the chance, Adventures of Tintin was pretty damn awesome in 3D, as well.
