andrewduckerFrom Rotten Tomatoes, based on percentage of critics giving a positive review. After Black Swan I've added in some of the best rated movies from the IMDB in 2010 with at least 1000 votes.

Date: 2011-01-29 02:32 pm (UTC)My impression was that it's not that the scenes had been lit badly - they looked like they probably contained full contrast and colour depth in the original - but that the subsequent "grading" (colour-correction, as it's sometimes known) process had been used to desaturate the hell out of them and push them toward an extremely shadowy tone, to the point that when I saw the first few scenes in the cinema I thought the print was knackered, rather than anything to do with the filmmaking itself.

Date: 2011-01-28 11:09 pm (UTC)Though in my case, I think it's because I really don't like going to the cinema alone, and over the last year or so I've been in the process of slowly spending less time with one friendship group and more with another, which has left me in the situation where I'm no longer spending enough time with the old group to hear when there's a plan to go to the cinema, and I'm not yet fully in and spending enough time with the new group to get that either.
And/or my choice in films – the last three I went to see were Tron, Red, and Despicable Me. Before that was... I think Watchmen.

Date: 2011-01-28 03:30 pm (UTC)"Black Swan" is to me more like a 2011 movie - it came out in the UK in January, and I'm planning on seeing it soon. The "not seen" on that means something different to the other "not seen"s

Date: 2011-01-28 03:39 pm (UTC)Toy Story 3 was awesome, but then, I saw it on my birthday with only 3 other people in the entire cinema, and none of them talked during the movie, so it was like heaven.

Date: 2011-01-28 04:53 pm (UTC)I know I have quite a film habit compared to many folks (7 at the cinema and 7 at home so far this month), but I am surprised so few people who have voted so far have seen 127 Hours and Black Swan. Although I was taken aback to watch the latter in a huge sold out opening night screening, as I hadn't thought it would have a very wide appeal. I really should dust off the LJ and actually write about what I watch as well as keeping a list.
Really looking forward to True Grit.

Date: 2011-01-29 03:29 am (UTC)I agree that the action sequences often lost me -- especially the Katayanagi fight, which is so many billion times more amazing in the comic, geez.
