Gravity was my favorite film in 2013, but I also loved The World's End and 12 Years a Slave. Maybe it's just because I'm partial to Alfanso Cuaron.
I thought 2014 had a lot of great movies, personally.
Whiplash was phenomenal! JK Simmons was SOOO good. I'd say it's a very close second to Birdman, just because of the whole one-take aspect. The way they shot the musical performances was really engaging, too.
Movies that I liked(not in order)
John Wick
Guardians of the Galaxy
X-Men Days of the Future Past
Non-Stop
A Walk Among Tombstones
LEGO Movie
the Judge
the Penguins of Madagascar

I know right! JK Simmons was incredible! He deserves the Oscar for best Supporting Actor because seriously, he got me on a whole new level of emotion when I watched him. What did you think of the ending? I thought it was awesome.
12 Years a Slave was also great.

Simmons deserves it, but I also really enjoyed Ed Norton in Birdman.
I don't think that there was any other way they could've ended it. Some may call it abrupt, but the performances were subtle enough that you could tell how each character was feeling and get an idea of what would happen after the credits. That drum solo went on for so long and was absolutely incredible! The performance scenes were shot better than pretty much all music videos that come out now.

I like being confused, it makes me want to know more lol I'll search for those recommendations :P and yeah I'm a fan of Superhero, Sci-Fi and Animation, mostly because I grew up with them and I still am growing up with them xd Superheroes teach me morality, Sci-Fi's teach me the possibility of the impossible and imagination pretty much and animations are great since they follow their own laws.
Seems like you're really into superhero, sci-fi, and animated movies. Ain't nothin wrong with that tho. Some of those movies you mentioned … moreare great!
Whiplash isn't exactly like those movies, but I would REALLY recommend it. It's hard to find though. Another movie I'd recommend is Birdman. Just be prepared to be confused because I sure was when I watched it.
I'm sure you'll get your chance:). So you watched True Detective, I take it? If you didn't, I highly recommend it(pretty sure HBO might air … morethe first season again at some point).
I pretty much ignored the guy, but once I saw him on "The Wolf Of Wall Street" and heard he won the oscar he caught my eye. So, I decided to give him a chance. Needless to say, I wasn't disappointed. I haven't seen Mud either, but I heard good things about that movie as well....I will definitely check it out when I get the chance. Other movies that I watched with him are: Killer Joe and The Lincoln Lawyer. Not sure if I will ever watch Magic Mike, though....
I thought Gone Girl was awesome.
I do have to admit though, I was a bit bored in the beginning, but I am glad that it picked up by the b… moreeginning-middle. And dat ending dude...
And thank you for liking my profile picture. TheZorkij is the one who made it for me, so all the credit goes to him.
Yep, Not much news about it but it's confirmed. (It's probably gonna be released in 2016 or 17) Stallone says he has plans but isn't gonna start making it until he finishes with Rocky 7 and Rambo 5.

I haven't seen the theory of everything so I have no opinion. I thought keaton was great, but I didn't think his performance was Oscar worthy. Who were the other nominations for best actor?
His performance was extraordinary; I don't know your definition of "Oscar worthy". If you mean he's not a British metrosexual who plays a disabled, retarded, biographical, gay, holocaust survivor character, then you're right.
But Keaton's performance was one of the most memorable performances of the recent while.

Jeez bro I said I haven't seen the movie so I have no opinion. And I acknowledged the fact that I thought Keaton was great.
I would've gone with Jake Gyllenhaal out of all the main performances I've seen in 2014. That dude can get into any role given to him. At times, I didn't even realize the guy was on screen during his performance. I just saw some slimeball creep. It's a shame he wasn't nominated.

I absolutely agree, Gyllenhaal's performance is easily one of the best portrayals of a sociopath that I've ever seen. Shame. Riz Ahmed's was also praiseworthy.

Anyone watch this yet? I thought it was a straight up action sci-fi movie until the plot twist... MIND... BLOWN. Straight after finishing this movie, I was scratching my head thinking about it.

Yeah I watched it the other day. A great movie. The ending was rather confusing and took me a little while to understand it. I like Ethan Hawke. He is a really good actor.

Mine are (in no particular order):
* Edge of Tomorrow
* Boyhood
* The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1
* Predestination
* A … moreMost Wanted Man
* Calvary
* Whiplash
* Gone Girl
* Guardians of the Galaxy
* The Amazing Spiderman 2
I looked at a lot of other analysis videos about Birdman, and I have to say I'm starting to have a stronger grasp on the movies metaphorical… more messages. Some are still a little hard to understand though.
Dude, you most definitely need to see Whiplash! Tell me what you think about it.
The only 2015 movie that catches my eye is the new James Bond movie, Spectre. I saw a review about Predestination from Chrisstuckmann. I heard it was a very good movie. I might look into it.

My favorite movie of 2013 was 12 Years a Slave.
Me too, I thought 2014 was a great year for films.
12 Years a Slave was also great.

Nice choices but may I ask why you disliked Expendables 3? (I know a lot of people hate it but hey, to me it was easily better than the first)

Nice choice for Her.

Overrated IMHO.
Ya I could see that.
Whiplash and Big Hero 6
Whiplash is uber amazing!
I can't really say but I am a big Expandables fan. I always enjoy their movies but the last one was just plain bad. I really don't know.
I think the 2nd was the best, the third was good to me, and I actually think the 1st is the worst , Let's see how the 4th goes.
Easily Edge of Tomorrow. Probably Guardians of the Galaxy after that.
Actully I think 2014 was a pretty good year, Especially comparing the boring 2013 film year.
Got to watch Whiplash and Nightcrawler, Both great films I have to say.
Exactly my thoughts.
yup one of the best movie of 2014
true detective is awesome i loved it cant wait for 2nd season
yup first 45 min was boring for me then they just had me i waned to know whats happen to his wife so i keep watching and it is dark story loved it
whiplash was one of the best movie i watched this year and i will highly recommended to anyone who didnt see it yet...
Really a 4th movie is coming?
Thanks!
Yeah I liked 2nd one best too.
Yep, Not much news about it but it's confirmed. (It's probably gonna be released in 2016 or 17) Stallone says he has plans but isn't gonna start making it until he finishes with Rocky 7 and Rambo 5.
Hmm thanks bro!
PS: Oscars was bullshit, No way that little bitch deserved the award over Keaton.

Yea I heard good things about it.
I'm most definitely giving that movie a watch later.
