    That Trailer was a trip. Also 127 hours looks like the most boring movie ever to me.

    according to imdb it came out november 12 in the states, but only limited release. nothing listed as far as a broader release in usa though, which i find odd

    Already saw 127 hours. It was ok, NO WAY the best movie of 2011 though.

    Just to be clear.. when I said "impossible to tell though in January", I was referring to what the best movie of 2011 will be, not whether 127 Hours is good or not =P

    edit: and also more importantly, the biggest global release for the movie is in january so its why i referred it as a 2011 movie to begin with.

    this looks ok, but not the best movie of 2011 and I would bet on that

    It's just the fact that 127 Hours is far and away a 2010 movie. It has been out for months. Maybe it didn't/hasn't reached every theater in the country, but it has been in at least 3 of the cities I've been in recently and in multiple theaters, as far back as November.

    As for the movie Hanna - I'll bite. Looks like it has potential. The girl is from The Lovely Bones and Atonement and the director did Atonement.

    if I had to throw a wild guess what the top movies of 2011 would be I'd guess Thor & Hangover 2 being incredibly popular and Hugo Cabaret & Melancholia being incredibly good

    Hanna might be entertaining in the sense that Kill Bill and Con Air were but there's literally less than a 5% chance that this is actually a "good" movie let alone the best of 2011....imo.

    I'll put money on this. I guarantee up to $20 that it receives at least a 75% on Rotten Tomatoes when the reviews come out. The cast alone insures that the film will good.

    Here's my rule of thumb:

    When three big name actors - two of which have been nominated for an Oscar in the past two years and all of which have appeared in Oscar nominated films in the past five years - all agree to do a movie, there's almost no chance it's going to be bad. It passes the "Must be a helluva screenplay" test.

    Like I said: Movie of the year.

    blockbusters are rarely movies of the year (Titanic is the only one that comes to mind). And I'm not sure how you're defining movie of the year, but I assume Oscar nomination at least?

    I will take this bet and I understand your logic but I'm still going with the under here. I don't have much faith in Eric Bana and Cate Blanchett seems to be in every other movie I watch lately. I don't know how RT works because I never go there so how about it has to break/maintain a 7.5 on IMDB? I'm starting to doubt myself while typing this so take it while its hot.
